TEXT

1. HLC: You will have before you the entity [2175], born October 23, 1911, in Danville, Va. You will give an aura chart of this entity, indicating the symbols, colors, and the meaning of each, that they may be made into a drawing that will be of help to the entity.
2. EC: Yes, we have the records here of that entity now known as or called [2175].
3. In giving the signs, the symbols, the outline for an aura chart, many phases of the experiences of the entity are taken into consideration. These are given in a manner that they may be drawn into a chart. Much of the beauty or the symmetrical outline will depend upon the artist's concept of same, to be sure.
4. Yet, as a drawing, this should constantly bring to the entity's mind the activities, or manners of activity, indicating the thought and the purpose which has been a part of the entity's experience; thus enabling the entity to visualize why this, that or the other appeals to the entity, why this, that or the other may be a shortcoming, or why certain things appeal and others do not.
5. For this entity, we would outline this:
6. In the center at the bottom of the drawing we would put the whole rainbow, - not too large a figure, but indicating all the colors of same; and this over - not so much waste but water, with heavy clouds above same. Upon either side indicate the symbol or the figure of a pyramid. These, to be sure, would be sand and desert in color. Neither of these would be complete, but as being builded, yet no indication of a worker on same. One may be indicated leaving off the top, the other may be indicated with one side complete and the other being started or in the form of being builded.
7. On the left put the symbol of the earth; the outline in gray, the cross lines in green; symbolizing the unfoldment and awakening of the consciousness in the earth, as indicated in the periods of activity both in Atlantis and Egypt. About the sign of the earth put the symbol of Cancer; this very small but in black, - four in number.
8. Upon the right put the outline of the full moon; this, to be sure, in color, but the face indicating the pleasant expression and not as a grinning or as a obtuse figure. About this would be the symbol of Aries; four, in small figures, black.
9. Above this put a field of grain, indicating a corner by a crooked rail fence. Shocks of wheat would be indicated in the background, and a little of the wheat being left standing in the corner, and a figure reaping same with a hand scythe. The figure, to be sure, would be in the oriental dress and quite colorful; while the fence and grain would be in the natural colors of same.
10. Upon the left put an altar, - a small figure, - indicated by twelve stones; these not hewn, but as boulders gathered; which would signify - in the period - an altar erected to the universal God. No sacrifice would be indicated in the place for the sacrifice, or any figure about the altar.
11. Upon the right side, - not too large, - indicate a figure in the edge of a grove as of Baal or Astheroth; the grove being the symbol of the worship of the peoples of which the entity had been a part.
12. These central figures, of course, indicate the period, the activities, and the associations that brought about the change that came into the entity's experience.
13. Upon the left side put Mercury, - this in white and green; and the signs about this would be of Pisces, small or dark gray or black figures, indicating the manner of activity.
14. On the right side put the symbol of Venus; and this with the signs about same of Libra, in small black figures, four in number. Venus, to be sure, would be in blue and gold.
15. This whole figure would indicate mind, the whole activity, the change, and the beauty of the whole activity of the entity through that particular experience.
16. Above this put a figure, rough, with the strong characteristics of a man, with the hair not too long but ruffled, with a beard, with a staff resting across the limb; being seated upon the rocks, and the dress of camels' skin or hair, with a girdle binding same about the body.
17. This, to be sure, would represent the figure in its strength to which the entity gave itself in activity.
18. For, upon the left would be a cradle with a baby in same, the mother and another figure near same, with an angel's face in the corner. This, of course, depending upon the artist's concept, may be made the beauty that this represented to man, - announcing man's having announced the coming of the great day of the Lord.
19. Upon the right would be a maiden, with the cherubs in the distance above same; this, to be sure, the madonna of expectancy. This, too, may be made beautiful, according to the concept of the artist; this the recognition, as it were, of the God-Mother, or Mary, becoming aware of the coming of the Christ.
20. To the left would be the symbol of Venus, in blue and gold and purple, with the symbol about same of Sagittarius.
21. To the right would again be put Venus, in white and gold and blue and purple; with the symbol of Cancer about same.
22. These indicate the period and the activity of the entity, when the entity's activity was given to not only the knowledge of the fulfilling of those promises which had been a part of the Father's promise to man, but to the acknowledgement - in motherhood - of its fulfillment, as indicated in the central figure - or John.
23. Above this put the figure of a king, with the royalty symbolized in the dress and the throne; this as a student, as a study. This would be the period, of course, in the early English activities.
24. Upon the left would be indicated the teaching of two or three by a tutor; rather in symbol form yet may be very characteristic as to study or knowledge or the search for the establishing of relationships of man to man, - as the period indicates by the realization that there is the freedom of man and the right of each individual.
25. Upon the right put an open book, - indicated as Holy Writ.
26. To the left put the symbol of Jupiter, in colors to balance with the colors in the royal robe of the king in the center. But this king would be a man, not indicated as a symbol or in spiritual picturization as the other figure below. The symbol about same would be Leo, in black, four.
27. To the right put the symbol of Saturn with her rings. About same would be the sign of Scorpio; small, black.
28. Above this put the entrance to a home; indicating the early settlers, or the forest with the characteristics of the home as would be builded by settlers.
29. Upon the left put three white stars, of sufficient size and position as to balance with the activities indicated in the figures below.
30. Upon the right side put three golden stars; these also in proportion and in order to fit with the other side.
31. These indicate the period and the attainments and associations of the entity through those activities.
32. Upon the left put the symbol of Uranus, divided as to its shading, the upper part dark and the lower part golden and blue. The symbols about this would be of Pisces, - this time the character rather than the symbol, and these crossing one another.
33. Upon the right put the sign of symbol of Neptune. This, too, would have about same the sign or symbol of Pisces - as upon the left.
34. These indicate the abilities, the extremes to which the entity attained, or acted, and the purifying - as water indicates.
35. Remember, as ye visualize this, in thy study of same, - as He gave, - man is born of water and of blood.
36. Then, the attainment as may be for the entity:
37. In the center above would be the letter G, in gold; this heavy but not out of proportion. Just below same would be the single eye. Just below this (silver) would be the cross. All of this would be covered with a cloud (or shading), with at least twenty-four stars upon either side. The twenty-four here would represent the attainments in the mental and the spiritual activities; twenty-four in each. These should be shaded, of course; a part of the stars white, a part of them gold. This will put the artist to the test, to make them shade properly into the clouds. But indicate the beauty, the strength, to which the entity may attain in God and the singleness of purpose as in Christ.
38. We are through for the present.
