TEXT

1. GC: You will have before you the entity, [1709], born July 19, 1919, in Norfolk, Va. You will give an aura chart of the entity, indicating the symbols, colors, and the meaning of each, that they may be made into a drawing that would be of help to the entity.
2. EC: Yes, we have the records here of that entity now known as or called [1709].
3. In giving an aura chart for this entity, - as we have indicated, the appearances in the earth (from which such is taken) have been quite varied.
4. So, the interpreting of the experiences of the entity in the earth, to make same of a helpful force, may appear at times to be somewhat contradictory. Yet this studied by the entity may be a reminder of that necessary in the present experience. As the entity applies that it knows, that it understands, in its dealings and in its relationships with others, this may be made a helpful influence.
5. The symbols and signs are drawn from the pictures of periods, from the astrological aspects in the varied periods of activity, and the symbols are as the manners in which the entity applied itself through those experiences.
6. In giving the signs or the pictures for this entity, then:
7. We would begin in the center at the lower portion by putting (as in a vignette) a view representing the Nile; not at flood season but during dry; with the pyramid, and the sphinx in the distance.
8. (To be sure, the beauty of such a drawing will depend upon the artist's concept, as to how these figures would be presented.)
9. We would make the Nile quite colorful, with the foliage and especially the reeds and papyrus; while the background, indicating the pyramid, would be more of a sand tone, and the sphinx a somewhat darker gray with a little color. But do have the paw, or paws of the sphinx, indicated in the drawing.
10. This represents a period in the experience of the entity.
11. To the left side of same put the symbol of Mercury; this in white and gold, with the signs about same (four in number, and in black) of Aries.
12. To the right of the figure representing the Nile, put first a cluster (five) of five-pointed stars. These would be silver, gold, and red. And about same would be the sign or the symbol of Libra; this indicating, then, the application and the purpose of the entity through that experience.
13. Above this in the center put a maiden, the figure or character as of the period of Ishmael; which would be represented by the garb of the seated girl or maiden, with the water jar sitting beside same. This would not be too large a figure, as will be seen why.
14. On the left side put the moon, with the face toward the character in the center. This would be gray and silver, with the face outlined in delicate pink. About same put the character of Scorpio (these all to be in small characters, but in black).
15. Upon the right side put also the figure of the moon, - this, too, facing the central figure, and very colorful though pale, and the outline of the face in the dark - not black, but leaden color, and the lighter edge - the outside rim of same. And about same put the character or symbol of the crab.
16. This represents the period as the wanderer, and the character indicated by the period of the entity's activity; and the manner in which these were met by the entity.
17. Above this put a lake, or sea, but capable of seeing land in the background of same. At the water's edge, or just off the edge, put a boat - with the Master sitting in same, and the group about same on shore, - including men, women and children, in all ages and postures, and the varied attention as would be indicated by the character of the group. This, too, may be made rather colorful.
18. Now, - from the base of the central figure at the bottom, - put the reeds, or bulrushes, or better still the pussywillow, as it may be made to indicate more the outgrowth - or the Figure; this to cross at the bottom, bend about the figure of the maiden in the desert, and the leaves - or the top - being at the center of the figure of the Master's teaching by the sea, or lake. This, of course, would have tiny leaves and the buds may be made green and the shade green of the stem, and the tiny leaves as a different or more verdant green; while the bulbs would be silver. These would indicate the growth, and the tying together of the characteristics of the entity, as it were, as it listened in that period of the greater unfoldment.
19. Upon the left side of this put the character representing Jupiter; this in silver and gray, while the symbols about same would be Pisces, in the symbols rather than the signs of same.
20. On the right put the sun, with the signs about same of Leo; these would be colorful but balanced with the silver and gray, the ocher and golden, - though not gold leaf here.
21. These would indicate the period, the manner of application, the strength as obtained and applied in the experience of the entity.
22. Above this, - not too large, - put the figure of a horseman, with the robe of the knight; made, of course, with the helmet and the shield over the head and neck. Upon the shield put the cross; this with the spear, of course, also, in the right hand. Hence the figure would face toward the left side of the drawing. This would indicate the period and the purposes.
23. Upon the left side put the sign of Venus, with the shadings in green and pink; while those symbols about same would be of Sagittarius, - these small and four in number, indicating the manner, and the approach, and the activity.
24. On the right put the figure or sign or symbol of Mars; this, of course, red - not too red, but coral and pink, with the shadings of green and purple in portions of same. And the signs about same would be of Libra. These indicate the period and the activities of the entity.
25. Then the attainments:
26. Through a cloud, just above this, would be indicated parts of stars and parts of the moon, - these as a combination, as through a mist; and then the bow - rainbow - above same, extending the whole way across.
27. Above same, at the corners, put the cross, - this heavy, though not too large, and in gold. The rainbow, of course, would be in the colors of same.
28. And above this would be an array of stars, as to balance same, - some white, some RED red, some in gold; at least twenty-four in number, and the larger ones in the center.
29. In the bow of the Cross is the conquering influence, then, in the life.
30. These are the indications of the aura chart as we see of this entity, [1709].
31. We are through for the present.
