TEXT

1. GC: You will give the relations of this entity and the universe, and the universal forces; giving the conditions which are as personalities, latent and exhibited in the present life; also the former appearances in the earth plane, giving time, place and the name, and that in each life which built or retarded the development for the entity; giving the abilities of the present entity, that to which it may attain, and how. You will answer the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: We have the entity now called [5002].
3. In giving the interpretations of the records and in analyzing the urges as we find them latent and manifested, these we would choose from same with the desire and purpose that this information applied in the experience may be a helpful influence in the entity using its virtues, minimizing its faults.
4. For each soul, as it finds itself in consciousness, should be aware that the divine force, the Creative Force, the ALL is mindful of thee as an individual entity. Ye cannot afford to do other than be aware of the fact that ye must use thy abilities in His service, to His glory, to His honor. Thus as ye glorify the law of the Lord ye do honor to self and manifest His purposes in the earth.
5. The abilities of the entity are many. The entity is very severe with self. At times because of being severe the entity is imposed upon by others. Declare thine own rights.
6. The entity loves deeply but is easily turned about. Be rather in that position that when the complement of self in the opposite sex appears, thy heart, thy mind, thy body will recognize same. For without that complement the self will be as naught and become nil.
7. In giving those urges latent and manifested from the astrological sojourn, or awarenesses of the entity in other dimensions of consciousness than the earth, we find that there should be the consideration that in the earth we have three dimensions, in Mercury two dimensions, in Venus four dimensions, in Jupiter seven dimensions, in Saturn one dimension, in Uranus eight dimensions. These are, then, urges. Thus confusions at times. Yet the entity is ever as a play actor to itself, and too oft this is evidenced in the experience with others. Thus not always is the entity taken seriously.
8. Mercury is mind, or the awareness of that consciousness.
9. Venus indicates beauty, activity, dependent upon whether this is acted upon by the material, mental or spiritual purposes. For these enter, as indicated, the fourth dimension of consciousness. Thus beauty as it is possessed in self, in body, in mind, in soul. Don't abuse it. Remember and know as the law, that what is thine no one can take from you - but you can throw it away, waste it, lose it by lack of appreciation, lack of use, by abuse and such.
10. Also from Venus ye find thy abilities as an actress, as a song writer, as a dancer, as in principles that may be applied to everything having to do with beauty. Use these abilities, don't abuse them.
11. As to the appearances in the earth, these have been many. Not all would be given, but those which may be applied in the cycle of thy interpretation of same in the present experience.
12. As to the appearances then:
13. Before this the entity was in the land of the present sojourn, among those who were of the land to which strangers came. Thus the use of body, the use of the abilities to attract, is still ever present.
14. The use of that to which the entity attained as Marjorie Elzmean made a strongness of purpose that is manifested in the present, yet the doubting which often allows the entity to be imposed upon by others.
15. The lack is in the laws of the Creative Force, for, these known, these interpreted in body, mind and soul will bring happiness, home. The entity is very fond of children.
16. This is indicated form the experience before that when the entity was in the English land where it cared for many children, being among those who first went out to care for children not wanted by others because of their own selfishness. The pouring out of self in care for souls, bodies and minds of the young brought to the entity those expressions that have been indicated in all the beauties of mind, of soul, of body that the entity now possesses. Use these in the present, don't abuse them. These may be used to the glory of God or they may be desecrated, they may be lost by the lack of the application of truth with same.
17. The name then was Pegy Armuth.
18. Before that the entity was in the Holy Land when the Master walked in the earth, when the Master blessed the children on that mountainside when the thousands were fed as only the Master might feed, from the few loaves and fishes.
19. The entity caught something of the plenty, and this has ever been and may ever be manifested for the entity - sufficient unto the day is the good or evil thereof. If thy trust is put in the Lord of Lords, ye may indeed revel in that consciousness that "The Lord will take care of many, as I do His biddings."
20. The name then was Esther.
21. Before that the entity was in the Egyptian land when individuals were being prepared in and through the activities of the Temple of Sacrifice, the Temple Beautiful.
22. The entity sacrificed much, the entity became beautiful, and was an ensample, as an example, as a model for that which many of that period sought to attain. A Mother, yes, through the offices which the entity attained as to the priestesshood during a part of the experience, and worshipped with those in the activities of supply the purposes and aids to those as they chose their varied forms of activities.
23. The name then was Es-Es-Sor-Li.
24. As to the abilities of the entity; these are plenty. Keep them, in body, in mind, toward a purposeful direction. Build thy home, have thy children. Keep them in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.
25. Ready for questions.
26. (Q) Is it indicated that it would be best for [3674] and me to marry, if so when?
    (A) These have their problems. Don't be set upon but when he returns, do fill those desires in body and in mind.
27. (Q) What is our past relationship that would account for the present strong attraction?
    (A) The activities in the experience before this as well as in the Egyptian land.
28. (Q) Should I attempt a career in music or acting?
    (A) In music and in acting for the time being, yes. Not as a lasting career, but use it only in the creative activities that bring the thoughts and purposes of faith, hope, charity, love.
29. (Q) How should I go about this and whom should I contact?
    (A) Begin by offering self as an entertainer to those who would serve their country.
30. We are through for the present.
