TEXT

1. (Q) LS: You will answer all questions which I ask you [re 5453-3]. You will explain in detail the following: "In the next two years we will find the constellation of the Gemini with the assistance of Uranus, under which the occult forces will reach this body, unless the will force is allowed to carry into that distant force that would become under that of the Sagittarius forces that would carry that off-set on balance to the better development, and it will bring much then of the powers of those reached through Jupiter, Mercury and Neptune's forces with Uranus."
   (A) EC: This with the interest as manifested in those of the occult forces, under that of Uranus, in which with this body will come to a focusing or definite point on March 19, 1924. Those of Gemini with Sagittarius give the influence to be taken away from the influence of the occult forces on account of financial, and were these influences through the will not acted upon, then the better development in self, and through the influences of the occult, would be lost to a great extent. Otherwise, the influences of Jupiter, Mercury, Neptune with Uranus will from that day bring greater development in this body, both through the spiritual, soul forces, as well as material and physical.
   Keep, then, the exercises of the will force to give the body the better development for the soul and spirit forces, that the greater elements may enter into the developing of this entity. Fear not, stand fast. Be not deceived. Follow in the way that leads to the better developing of self, come what will or may through the material plane.
2. (Q) Give specifically the characteristics as brought forward into this life from the previous appearances on this plane.
   (A) In that just previous to the present plane we find that among the ones associated with Oglethorpe [James E. Oglethorpe?], and the individualities as expressed through personal forces, or personalities in the present, are exhibited rather in the turn of the mental toward that of the mathematical and political economics in the thoughts of the present entity's manifestations. In that of the one just before this, [Norway] in the love of all great expanses, and the desire not to be cramped in any manner, especially that pertaining to the physical exercises of the body-physical.
   In that previous [Troy], we find in the keeper in gate that as is shown in ability to be centered one objective, irrespective of what may be brought to bear upon the person in physical elemental forces, and the desire to do or to expend all of self in the making of that principle as set before self, whether good or bad.
   In this just previous to that [Persia:Xerxes period? (Old Testament)], that which gives the present entity's stature, and the force as is exhibited in the desire of uplift, and from this plane come much of the elements and forces that will be sought in this present plane, though:
   In that of the gate keeper [in Troy] we find more contacts of that sphere in the present sphere.
   We find only one individual whom this body has contacted that has not been contacted before. In that we find one who has proven to be the strain upon the soul and spirit of this present entity. Shun such an one. [GD's note: If he knew who this one was, he never mentioned it to us.]
3. (Q) Have you anything further to say?
   (A) Yes, there might be much said on the many various phases of the conditions that have arisen, and that will arise in the present sphere relative to those individualities as have been exhibited and find the response through the personal contacts and forces of this present entity's dwelling forces here. In the end, all will be well. Fear not. Stand fast, and present self before Him, who knoweth and doeth all things well. We are through.¹
