1. GC: 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 Universe and Universal Forces, as are manifested and latent in the present earth's plane, with those relations with those former appearances and that as builded in the forces of the entity in cosmic records and that to which the present entity may attain, and how.
3. In coming to the present earth plane, we find the entity taking its position from that of Venus, with those of the Pleiades, Jupiter and of Mercury, and with the benevolent influence of Saturn's forces in the degree that is seldom seen in the earth's plane. One with the adverse influence in Mars and in Vulcan's forces.
4. In the conditions then as seen, as of the present forces, we find one well mated in the present earth's plane, for as we see at the present, we have more than one entity to deal with in the Whole, for in the last week of the present month we find the time will be full and the birth of that entity, as is held near to the center of the present entity, will be delivered, see? and this we find will make many changes in the life of this entity. [Baby son, [318], her 4th child, was born 12/4/25.]
5. As to those conditions as are latent and exhibited, we find one that holds little of prejudice in the make-up. One that is easily made mad, yet often curbs temper well, and through the experiences in the earth's plane we will see from whence much of these influences are gained.
6. One that will make, and does make, many friends. One
780-6 Page 2
that is tending toward that of the recluse in nature, yet when given to the home life and those friends made there, finds much in the way of satisfaction to self in entertaining many.
7. One that has the inclinations to seek that which it does not understand, and desires to reason same from the mental or physical viewpoint.
8. One, with those influences in Jupiter and in Venus, finds many loves come in the life in the younger days, and centralized in the one in the latter day, giving then much to the family and being that of the exceptional mother in the home, being able then to give much advice to those in or under the care of the entity.
9. One that desires to dress so as to bring satisfaction to those whom the entity likes, with little care for those entity dislikes. One that desires to dress in the fashions of the day. One that we find has the innate or latent desire for finery, for travel, and especially for large bodies of water. One that loves city life better than country life, though born in country. One that we find will, in the latter days in the present earth plane, have much of the world's goods, if guided aright through the next few years, see? [GD's note: 5/18/65 She did not have a great deal of money, ever, though the last 10 yrs. of her life were certainly more free from financial strain or worry. An Army post in her small town increased clientele for her rooming house, which her son [781] and wife now ran for her. She and her husband, [779], were "star boarders", so to speak, whereas for years they had struggled to support their family.]
10. As to the appearances:
11. In this, we find the one before this in the Court of the Spanish forces, when the first of the peoples were given to circum-navigate the globe, and the entity then one in waiting to Queen Isabella, see? Then in the name of Schullarr, and the entity then saw much of the pomp and glory of the physical man in the desires of the flesh satisfied in worldly fashions. From this the entity developed little, and in the present we find those inner urges for that pomp and that satisfaction in earthly desires, yet that innate knowledge within, from those experiences gained in that plane, that all of earthly desires bring not the inner satisfaction to those spiritual forces awakened in the entity.
12. In the one before this we find in the Grecian forces, during those days when the second of the rulers that gave to
780-6 Page 3
the peoples the reasoning of the works among men; that is, those of the Tish o' Pudding [?] peoples, see? That is, those who waged that against the Theologians (as would be termed of today), which was a mind study of man, the one against the other, see? One held mind the developer, the other held the spiritual forces the developer. The entity then the daughter (for in same sex as present) to that one who headed, as it were, the movement of this body of peoples. Then in the name of Ernystyme, and in this period the entity gained that dislike to each of these peoples, for it was divided between these two forces, for the love in the earth plane then was for one in the other forces, see? and the entity developed much through the last days on that earth plane, for the reasoning of entity brought same to that of the Mercurian forces after that period, and the entity then beautiful of figure and the desires of the entity were toward those conditions which it, in its return, experienced, see? In the one then that the entity finds in the present urges from this, that of the desire to know the influences as govern each individual, whether friend or foe, as to their physical actions and to weigh same in self's mind.
13. In the one before this we find in the early days of the people's sojourn in the now Palestine country. Then among those first Chaldeans who came to this country as settlers, and then in the household of the Chief Herder in that day and in the name Nida, and the entity then gained much from its sojourn in the fields and among the nature that surrounded this country, gaining the dislike of men, for it's action during that period, yet gaining much in spiritual development; yet from same there comes little of the abilities of discernment among those of the men's attitude towards self in present day.
14. In the one before this we find in the Egyptian forces, when the first rule gave the laws to those peoples concerning the development of the spiritual and man-made laws. The entity then the one in the Court of the High Priest, and was the one banished with Priest and the one wedded by Priest, and as the assistant to the Priestess, or that one banished. Then in the name of Sosi, and the entity gained much in this development. As to the urges from this, the abilities to make well of conditions in which entity finds self as pertaining to physical forces; as pertaining to mental, this gives the weariness, for the entity finds this same dependence upon others, and is seeking ever that gain in this manner.
15. In the abilities then in the present plane, the entity
780-6 Page 4
finds the greater influence in the home and the abilities to make same the place of refuge for those that depend upon same for counsel and for those conditions as pertain to physical life. Then, the greater influence, the greater abilities, in making that the ideal home. Remembering ever that the first and foremost in every home should be, seeking first the Lord and His Righteousness and all others will be added in their proper place and sphere.
16. We are through for the present.
