This Psychic Reading given by Edgar Cayce at his home on Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 3rd day of April, 1939, in accordance with request made by the self - Mrs. [1773], Associate Member of the Ass'n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc.

Present: Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno.

TEXT

1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for further corrective measures, answering the questions he has submitted, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes.
3. As we find, there are improvements in some respects. In others the body loses hold upon itself.
4. And those conditions as we find in the pelvis, as were first indicated, need now further corrections. These as we find we would have done osteopathically.
5. We would have the body advise the friends there as respecting WHOM to have, and to indicate to them the conditions that need correction; and thus following the advice as was given in the first suggestion for the osteopathic corrections.
6. In the mental attitudes we would hold to those that have been indicated for constructive influences. And if this is done in a prayerful, meditative manner, following the suggestions that have been indicated as portions of the Holy Writ as should be not just memorized but realized as a living experience in the application of self in relationships to its home, to its friends, to its neighbors, to even its passing acquaintances, - we will find it will not only aid materially in the corrections that are being sought to be made osteopathically in the structural portions of the body to relieve the tensions but will make the whole outlook upon life and its activities much more, not tolerable but much more worth while!
7. And the joy of life will again be a part of the entity's experience!
8. We are through with this Reading.

REPORTS

1. 4/04/39 EC's ltr. to Mrs. [1773]:
   Dear Mrs. [1773]
   Thank you for yours of the 1st with enclosure. Do hope you will soon be feeling a great deal better. Which Osteopath have you been going to lately? Mrs. [1100] spoke of some one she has been going to - hope it is the same one, for judge from her remarks he must be excellent. Ask her about him if it is not the same one. Too bad you are under quarantine. Do hope the little folks are getting along alright and all will soon be well with them.
   Know I feel anxious to hear that you are fast on the improve, and will appreciate hearing from you every now and then.
   With all good wishes
   Sincerely [signed] Edgar Cayce
2. 6/26/39 Mrs. [1773]'s ltr. to EC:
   ..., Mich.
   Dear Mr. Cayce -
   I am enclosing my check for a reading. Would appreciate if you could crowd it in very soon.
   I haven't written to you for I haven't had any really good news to write.
   My physical condition is, I think, good but the mental state is not.
   Mr. Cayce, I have tried so hard to fasten my thoughts on the bible as was suggested but find myself in the most frightful state. The "hows" & "whys" that enter my mind are so depressing. Just don't know, at times, what it is all about.
   I don't know how to word a question or questions for the reading to bring out what will help me. I just can't seem to help myself at all.
   I talked with a psychiatrist. He seemed to think it was a neurosis caused by some incident or incidents caused of childhood and that psycho analysis would help but it would entail so much expense. We just can't afford it unless it is the only answer. Then there is the possibility of the success of the use of hypnotism being helpful. Will you tell me what you think of this? Should I continue the osteopathic treatments and how often? I am taking them Dr. Crowder [S. A. Crowder, D.O.] - the same man Mrs. [1100] goes to:
   Should I use the radio active appliance again & is it in good condition?
   Sincerely hope your connection was successful.
   If you can work in my reading real soon - wire me collect. Otherwise will you drop me a note to tell me when.
   Sincerely, Mrs. [1773]
3. 6/28/39 EC's letter to Mrs. [1773]:
   Dear Mrs. [1773]
   Have yours of the 26th - glad to know that you are feeling better physically and hope you will continue to do so. The first open time we have is the afternoon of the 5th 3.30 to 4.30 E.S.T. Don't know whether ... is on Eastern time or Central - or whether you have daylight time or not - but you will be able to figure this out from your time. Will try Mrs. [1773] to make the suggestion such to include the depression you feel at times - had felt this should be helped with the physical improvement. Do hope we may be able to offer some suggestion that will help, and you will not have to go to a Psychiatrist - know there are some that are fine but have seen some very sad experiences with them.
   Hoping the time as set is not too far off for you - and that you have more questions for the period.
   Wish you might have been with us at the recent meetings - they were fine large crowd - and we were fortunate in having Mr. [470] and Mrs. [1100] with us throughout the meeting. Wish you could have talked with Mr. [257] - he has recently had experience with two cases [Mr. [1513], Miss [1789]] mental disturbance - with the most marvelous results. Am sure would do you good to hear him tell it. No he is not a Dr. but a Furniture man, but has been an observer of the phenomena for nearly 27 years.
   Hoping the time suits you with all good wishes
   Sincerely [signed] Edgar Cayce
4. 7/03/39 Mrs. [1773]'s letter to EC:
   ..., Michigan Dear Mr. Cayce:
   Received your letter. July 5th is satisfactory to me.
   Here are a few questions that are of interest to both the Osteopath and myself.
   In the first reading it was found that my condition was the result of impingements in the structural portions of the system, thus causing the irritation between the cerebrospinal and sympathetic nervous systems which upsets not only the emotional but the rationality of the whole reactions. Is it still this condition that continues to cause the mental depression or exhaustion. Have these impingements improved with the treatments?
   Should I continue the osteopathic treatments and how often?
   Should the osteopathic manipulations of the coccyx be external or external-internal in nature? (Of especial interest to the Osteopath)
   Are the Hematinic Plastules of benefit in my case - if not what is suggested for the anemia.
   Are any glandular substances now indicated? If so - what?
   What is the nature of the alleged adenomas in the anterior portion of the neck?
   Should I use the radio active appliance again and is it in good condition?
   Any other suggestions that will help relieve this present condition will be appreciated.
   Sincerely Mrs. [1773]
5. 7/05/39 See 1773-4.
