In entering, we find the influence in Venus, Jupiter,
Mercury, and in Saturn. In these variations, we find
that influence in Jupiter, with Saturn and Venus, brought
- during the early portion of the entity's experience -
those aspirations, and hopefulness, idealistic, and a
mindfulness - or UNMINDFULNESS - of consequences, so
circumstances brought for self that satisfying in the
material, the mental, and - secondarily - those in a
social and welfare position. In the change, during
the periods when the changes came about, there were
those conditions that brought a hope, help, and
independence in many secular manners; aspirations
fulfilled, to a measure, yet an unsatisfied longing
for something that was awakened in love which brought
discouragement, discontent; not covetous in its nature,
rather a longing for an understanding.
In the next change that will be seen, in the early portion
of the present year - with the junction of Saturn, Venus
and Jupiter in their phases as respecting the life of the
entity from the aspect of the astrological - there will
come those greater influences in Jupiter, Mercury, tempered
with Neptune. Let not thine anger be kindled against any,
nor thine well-doing be evil spoken of.
In the conditions that are BUILDED as personalities, these
- as we see - come through in the changes and the manners
that have become a portion of the experience of the entity.
Use in a manner that is in keeping with, "though He destroy
me, yet will I love Him; for in whom else may I believe, and
whose arm is of sufficient length, or strength, to aid in the
time of trouble? Though I be tempted beyond that I am able
to bear, yet in the shadow of the rock as in a weary land
will I find the waters of life, that quench that burning
desire to know His bounties, HIS grace. With the
understanding heart may I approach that throne that will make
for me, for mine, that conception of the truth that may be
manifested in mine own experience, mine own life".
In such a manner may the entity make and use those conditions
that have arisen, do arise, as but stepping stones upon the
ashes of time; which build for each entity that as makes
self one with that universal force which is of the CREATIVE
Energies, that build and maketh not afraid - for "He that is
on the Lord's side, WHO may be against him? Though He slay
me, yet will I love Him."
In the appearances, and that which has been builded in the
present experience from them:
In the one before this we find in that land known as the
vine land, or Vinland, or in the present country during those
early periods and trying times of those who established their
land. The entity was among those who partook of the findings
of the land, suffering in many ways physically, yet in the
surroundings causing many to be dependent upon the entity
for the relationships established with those about the
entity, and those that came and went in the foreign shores.
Not as a leader in name; rather as that one upon whom most
depended in truth. In the present experience the entity
is finding many of those conditions that were brought upon
others now being experienced by self, in a reversal of order,
as it were. In the application of the experience, then, may
the entity BUILD that which may make for a development, that
the soul itself may know there is that law of continuity of
forces that are manifested from the first cause that must
be met in the daily experience of all. In the name Matilda
Daler.
In the one before this we find in that land known as the
Roman, during those periods when oppressions were made upon
those who followed after the new teachings, when oppressions
were being made as of sports. The entity was among those
who, not giving word of mouth - yet in act - oft lent the
voice in the persecutions of those who held to a truth that
to them was life itself. This SORELY tempted the entity
during this whole experience, making for an unsatisfied and
ungratiated experience throughout the entity's whole tenure
during that experience. In the name Thorleau. In this
experience the entity finds that to become in a manner
wherein each and everyone may think most for themselves,
having their own life, their own experiences, their own
up's and down's to meet, these may be done with impunity
will each do that which is accorded them, not encroaching
upon the lives of others; yet these very conditions often
trouble the entity, and make for misunderstandings, and oft
does the entity find in self that said, "Oh that I knew again
the flesh pots of Egypt". In those conditions that arise
in the entity's experience, then, use those as the stepping
stones for betterment of the soul's experience, forgetting
those things that are behind, pressing on to the mark of the
high calling that is set in Him, and in THEE through Him wilt
thou remain faithful unto those - as duties first, as loving
kindness, and as thought of those that may know Him.
In the one before this we find in a strange land, now unknown
in the world's experience; that lying westward from what is
NOW southern California and Mexico. In this land the entity
ruled as with an iron hand, for - from and through this
land - many were the escapes from the various upheavals
that occurred in those olden periods when there were the
divisions of waters and the divisions of land, and dry land
appeared. In this experience the entity lost, and in the
aggrandizing of selfish interests. In the name Olu.
In the abilities of the entity in the present, and that to
which it may attain and how:
In the various experiences in the present, correlated with
that gained and lost throughout the experiences in the
continuity of the forces of life itself in the entity, we
will find that with the application of that in hand - knowing
that, as that KNOWN is used toward a mark of the high calling
- more will be given. Think not that the Giver of all good
and perfect gifts counts as men count. Rather ever willing
is the spirit, the FLESH is weak. TODAY, hear that call in
Him.
In the relationships with individuals, these may be made best
through those conditions that have to do with the building of
those coverings for individuals, or dress, or donning - as
PREENING for the forces in life, or in nature itself, as
pertain to those of the body or bodily adornments.
Then, in these channels, or THROUGH these channels - whether
as related to individuals, groups, in the sale or in the
preparation of such adornments - may the entity come to
know individuals, and to know groups, whom - contacting
- may help either in their struggles for a better
understanding. Ready for questions.
(Q) What can entity now best do to help her husband [
4407]?
(A) Pray that each may, with an understanding heart, know
that all is well with him that wholly puts his trust in Him
- acting in EVERY manner as KNOWING this. We are through.

My dear Mr. Cayce -
After receiving my Life Reading & having read & reread
same I feel that in some respects it is rather vague to
my understanding -
Therefore wishing to have for my children [[
4406] & [
4405]]
the information which will best guide me for their future
as to education & occupation I would ask whether perhaps
a Mental Physical & Spiritual Reading would give me more
information on this.
If so please make this change in their readings.
The questions attached I will not change -
I am very anxious to be properly guided for the passing
of my husband's spirit to the great beyond we expect at
any time.
Very truly yours
4/04/31 A.M. She obtained a Mental-Spiritual for her daughter,
[
