1. GC: You will have before you the entity [533], born March 23, 1911, in Union, N.C. You will give an aura chart of the entity, indicating the symbols, colors, and the meaning of each, that they may be made into a drawing that would be of help to the entity.
2. EC: Yes, we have the records here of that entity now known as or called [533].
3. In giving an aura chart - this we would indicate as to the high points in the experiences of the entity in the earth, having to do with the manner in which the entity has conducted or is conducting itself in the present for the greater unfoldment - spiritually, mentally and materially.
4. One should not be stressed more than the other. And these characters or symbols may indicate for the entity the manner in which the conduct, in relationships to Creative Forces, which is the purpose of the entity's experience in the earth, has been applied by self. The picturizations are attainments, the symbols of the universal consciousness or astrological aspects are the manners, and the symbols about same indicate that portion of the body represented in same; signifying the manner or stress put by the entity. For instance, Aries indicates the mind - or the use of head; while Libra indicates the balance kept in body, mind and purpose in such an experience.
5. The beauty of such a drawing depends much upon the concept of the artist. Yet these may visualize for the entity that as may bring helpful influences into the experience.
6. For this entity, then, we would begin in the center at the bottom by putting a wheel, but with the rim and only four spokes; this indicating the entity's interest during the Egyptian period and its application as to means or modes or manners of transportation. This should be in the natural wood, or oaken; gray with the rims and a pink or varied
533-20 Page 2
color to indicate the hub itself.
7. Then upon the left, in small figure, put a papyrus branch, indicating the mode or manner, or staple from which, paper was made.
8. Upon the right put an apple tree; this with fruit upon same; indicating the activities of the entity in that period when the vocational activities were a part of the entity's helpful force among those groups in that experience.
9. Upon the left put the sign of Venus, in white and gold. About it would be the symbol of Aries; these small and black.
10. Upon the right side put Jupiter, in gray and blue; and the symbols about this of Sagittarius, small and black.
11. These indicate the manners in which the entity through that experience applied self, as in the mental building up of the universal consciousness as indicated in Jupiter, but with a purposefulness of a self-interest in the activity.
12. Above that put a caravan, approaching the "city in the hills and the plains." Only one or two camels in the foreground, but at least nine indicated in the group in the distance; all ladened. The "city in the hills" would be indicated in a distance. Only one figure would be with the camels, and that the one in the lead. This may be very colorful or very sombre, but indicates the activity of the entity in that period as a merchant trader between the land of Said and the Egyptian land, but who - by the very nature of the caravan - would be shown approaching the "city in the hills." The caravan should be approaching from the right, and the city upon the left - low; a hill depicted, and the city below the hill.
13. Upon the left side put the symbol of Uranus, in red and gray beneath; this indicating the manner of activity and the up and down, or the extremes in which the activity was carried on. About same put the symbol or sign of Leo; indicating the strength and virility, or the headstrongness to which the entity applied self.
14. Upon the right put the symbol of Venus, in very pale pink and green; and about same the symbol of Libra - that of love and purpose as portions of attainment of the entity in the period.
15. Above this indicate the Roman and Palestine period, by individuals - with at least three as slaves; these in chains - upon the arms; and the figure in the front with a helmet and shield, and even a battle ax, but the Roman ax - a longhandled, as part spear and part ax. This would be the central figure. While it may be put in colors, these figures should be rather sombre - yet even the slaves, not
533-20 Page 3
as in dejection but as of proud, rather, even of their bonds.
16. In a small figure on the left side put two stars, five-pointed and above same an olive branch; indicating the seeking of the entity.
17. Upon the right put two stars, blue (while those on the left would be golden).
18. Above these stars put the cup, as of the Eucharest. This should be rather elaborate in its character as to base and as to the cup itself; this in gold.
19. Upon the left side put Venus, in blue and gold; while the four symbols about same would be of Pisces, in black, very small.
20. Upon the right put the symbol of Mercury, in white and gray, with the gold in making the relief in same. About this would be the symbols of Aries.
21. These indicate the variations, the activities of the entity, and the applications in varied manners as to attainments through that particular period of experience, - as the Roman in the land of promise, and the interpretations as gained through that period of sojourn.
22. Above this put the open face as of an anvil, a smith, and a wheel - being worked on by an entity, with hammer and with the open furnace with bellows, and the activities as of a wheel, full wheel with felons, spokes and a rim on same. This was an experience of the entity in the land of its present sojourn, in the periods just before and during the Revolution.
23. Upon the left side put a VERY rugged cross, as of a twisted tree, with a small cross or arm making the cross. This would be of wood, with shading, but the color as of dogwood or the like with the bark on same.
24. Upon the right side put the small symbol as of a rooster; this as the figure of a game cock or the like; this in color, not in white, but in color; not as crowing, but head erect. No other figures or fowls would be shown about same; not as pasted on but as a vignette figure.
25. This indicates the experience, the completion of a period, and the attainments in that period.
26. As to the manner of approach - upon the left put the figure of Mercury, in purple, gray and green; the symbols about same of the archer - small, four in number, and black.
27. Upon the right put the symbol of Mars; this, too, in coral and gray, and the signs or symbols about same of Scorpio; indicating the temper yet the universal activities through portions of the entity's experience.
28. As to the attainments:
533-20 Page 4
29. In the center put (and this should roll from the right side of the drawing) the twisted cornucopia, and out of same would come rolling the seven virtues - hence seven stones, in the varied colors; from agate, the ruby, the pearl, the diamond, the amethyst, all of these colors; indicating meekness, temperance, love, faith, hope, patience, etc. upon the stones that roll from same.
30. Upon the left side put (a cloud that would cover both the right and left side should also be depicted) the cross, heavy - though not long in size; and upon the right the same. Both of these would be in gold and white, one upon the left and one upon the right.
31. This indicates the attainment in plenty through patience, love, hope, faith, as in the Cross crowning thy efforts, and in keeping the faith.
32. This we find the aura chart of the entity, [533].
33. We are through for the present. Copy to Self " " Miss Wynne " " Ass'n file ile
