1. GC: You will have before you [569], who was born May 6, 1880, in Mascoutah, Illinois, and you will give the relation of this entity and the Universe, and the Universal Forces, giving the conditions that are as personalities, latent and exhibited, in the present life. Also the former appearances in the earth's plane, giving time, place, and the name, and that in that life which built or retarded the development for the entity, giving the abilities of the present entity and to that which it may attain, and how.
2. EC: Yes, we have the entity here, and those relations with the Universal Forces as are manifested in the present sphere. Also those relations with the Universal Forces as are latent in the personality of the entity, with those conditions as do appear from the entrances into the earth's plane, and those influences in the present individuality of the entity.
3. In taking the position in the present earth's plane, we find under the influence of Jupiter and Venus, with Mercury and Uranus in the distance. In the adverse influence then of Vulcan and of the Pleiades. Hence the conditions as have to do with the relations in the present earth's sphere.
4. As to the personality as is exhibited in the present earth plane, we find one ever given to those ennobling influences in Jupiter and in Venus. Then with love, with prudence, with truth, with all of those classifications of those virtues as are found in the relation of Venus and Jupiter. See, there's a whole lot of money due the body that it has never gotten [2/22/26 Ltr. thanking EC for 569-7: "When you find that 'whole lot of money' that is due me I'm going to pay you well for your trouble and kindness to me."], and with the influences then in the life, there is brought these conditions as the latent forces in the urges of entity:

5. One that is considered peculiar by many, in its action, in its thought. One that is in the influence of love's forces ever. One that is lover of nature, of developing nature in every way, in the beauties in nature, in flowers [3/19/26 EC wrote saying he'd appreciate her sending him the flower seeds she promised for his flower boxes.], in music, in art, in every nature of the studies and the spirit as is manifest in same, and we shall see from the position many of these urges are taken.
6. One that may give much joy to many peoples, always giving, giving, more than ever receiving. [See 7/26/26 ltr. under 569-8 Reports.]
7. As to the appearances:
8. In the one before this we find in France, in the days when the Second Charles was in exile. The entity then in the name of Asada, and in the household of those [including [538]] who sheltered the escaped man or ruler afterwards, and assisted in the keeping of soldiery from capturing same, and was ever a favorite of that ruler, and the latter days were spent in the foreign port from birth, in England, see? and the urges as seen, the particular care in dress, and ability to keep secrets more than ordinary.
9. In the one before this we find in the Persian rule, when the forces were being over-run by the Grecians, and the entity then [was] carried as one of the captives to that country [period of Uhjltd], being then in the name Aurial, and in the household of the friend [here referring also to [538]?] to the one who afterward gave much of the first philosophy of faith to this people, yet being persecuted for that belief and action. In this we find the entity as Aurial developed much, and gained much in the knowledge of the mental developments as were seen in the human forces. The urges as we see in the present from this, when once set in mind as to purpose or intent, hard to change, for that innate feeling of self's satisfaction in the gained knowledge, as acquired through that sojourn, ever projects itself in the inner consciousness.
10. In the one before this we find in the Egyptian forces, when the division in the kingdom came, on account of the rule in the Priest-hood. [time of Ra-Ta] The entity then in the household of that ruler, and was a favorite with the then ruler, and siding with the ruler, [341] and becoming the chief in that court after the banishment of Priest and those associated, or followers of same. [GD's note: She replaced [538] as king's favorite when [538] was banished with Ra-Ta.] Then first in the name of Isisush. Changed, when the coming of high estate in the rule, to Ahahs, and

the entity both developed and retarded in that rule, gaining much of those innate desires toward that of close work with the needle, or with the hand, in any fancy work, for many of the alba garments were then first given shape by those hands, and many may yet be found in those tombs as exist to this day.
11. As to that which the entity may develop in the present sphere, keep in that same way as has been set in self, in purpose and in manner, for through the own efforts in self there need not be the necessity in returning to earth's plane [GD's note: See 569-1 Background ltr. indicating she considers this earthly life a "vale of tears."], for as is set, and if kept, these would develop into the higher spiritual realms, and then keep self in that way that leads to life ever-lasting, for in Him whom thou hast put thy trust is Life, for He is the Way, the Truth, the Light. In Him there is no guile. We are through for the present.
