The body naturally, from its inception, is beautiful in
figure, in mind, in soul. As it purposes at times, because
of circumstance the entity has put the question marks, rather
than others. But never think more highly of self than ye
should. Know thy ideal, in whom as well as in what ye
believe. Know who is the author of thy ideals, spiritually,
mentally, materially. Budget thy time more; first in the
care for the physical being, recreation, improvement
mentally, spiritually, also socially. Take time to be holy.
Be holy purposefully, and ye will find much of that ye have
looked for, hoped for, will come to thee in new environs, new
surroundings.
Do not change from thy ministrations to others, but make a
specialty rather with children - and especially those in the
ages from ten to sixteen - girls, and boys. Use thy counsel,
thy help in those things that have been a part of thy
experience. For ye have broken every rule as considered in
astrological aspects, yet Venus, Mercury and Jupiter are the
ruling influences. Thy ability to smile when everything has
gone dead wrong, thy ability to see the ridiculous at times
has saved the day for others as well as for self. Take time
to be holy.
As to the appearances in the earth, while all may not be
given, these have been quite varied and indicate much of the
activity in which the entity may apply self:
Before this the entity was in the land east from the present
nativity, or in the settlings in the land when there were the
Mound builders in Ohio, Indiana, and the various groups that
traveled through that land.
The entity was then one who acted in the capacity as the
teacher, the soothsayer or the priestess to those peoples.
Hence we find in the entity's present experience a form of
ceremony to almost any condition is almost necessary, yet at
other periods it is altogether tabu.
But as the entity aided in self, and aided in bringing better
understandings to those people through that experience, it
has brought and may bring the ability indicated as related
especially to young people that are in those periods of
transition in body as well as in purposes.
The entity was then beautiful in form, as it has been through
the greater portion of this experience also.
The name then was Mayohar.
Before that the entity was in the Holy Land or Palestine
during those periods following the Master's walk in the
earth. There the entity was among those who knew and heard
of those activities that were so peculiar to the period, as
to the teachings and activities of those that had followed
the Nazarene.
The entity questioned in self, and only when the entity came
to know personally those who had been acquainted with such
activities was the entity able to apply these in self.
Thus the needs in the present to the entity, "show me". It
becomes a matter of fact, something of a realist, and yet a
dreamer as in music and art. But you can apply the music and
the art in aiding the young, those who are changing in their
relationships to homes as well as in their relationships one
to another, in finding themselves, as ye did thyself. For it
is founded, as then, in truth - truth of man's relationships
to the universal forces.
The name then was Magda.
Before that the entity was in the Egyptian land during those
periods when there were exchanges made between various groups
of various lands.
The entity then being active in the Temple Beautiful, the
Temple of Sacrifice, became associated with those that were
sent from other lands - especially from the land of Saad.
And these are the activities or associations in the present.
Ye need to help oft that entity who is now thy companion,
keeping him from being discouraged, keeping him from being
disheartened at times in the problems that have arisen and
that do arise. Know in whom you believe; that is, in spirit,
in body, in mind. Let thy light so shine that others may
take hope also. But especially minister ye to those of
certain ages, in body, in teaching, in instructing, in
direction, in home economics, as well as in body-
relationships one to another. These are the outlets that may
bring to this entity satisfaction, in the knowledge that ye
are in attune and in accord with Him who is the way, the
truth and the light.
Ready for questions.
(Q) How can I better understand my daughter, [...]?
(A) Rather think not of what ye would want her to be, but of
what ye were at that same period. Enter into those things
that cause disturbance in the mind of the daughter. This is
one reason for the injunction and the insistence that ye
understand this particular age of people, and ye will be
closer and closer. Do not dictate but work with. For each
soul must give an account for the deeds done in the body.
(Q) What unused talents or special abilities could I develop
and use?
(A) As just indicated, in counsel, training especially to
the early teen-age girls and boys.
We are through with this Reading.
