Time of Reading 10:50 to 11:05 A. M. Eastern War Time. Washington, D.C.
1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [826]; this we have had before.
3. While many changes have taken place in the general physical forces of the body since last we had same here, most of these as we find are reacting in a near to normal manner - to keep the body very well balanced physically and mentally.
4. There are conditions as related to the superficial circulation that at times cause some inconvenience or aggravations, yet in the main - as the body exercises, and alters the food values - these are kept very well in abeyance.
5. The natural tendencies owing to the altitude of the environs cause the body-pressures to contribute a great deal to the condition. And if the body remains in this environ, such should be taken into consideration; as to the food values for their contribution to the better assimilation and the effects upon the central nervous system and central circulation, also as to the exercise. Not that there should be an overtaxing, but the keeping of a balance sufficient to keep the normal forces through the body functionings.
6. Ready for questions.
7. (Q) From a health standpoint, would it be advisable for me to leave Washington? (A) As indicated, if there is a difference in the altitude, or even the activities in the west - as has been indicated for the body - it would contribute more to the general physical welfare of the body. But, as the the body has understood and does understand, the body adapts itself to the various conditions, and acclimates itself, if there is consideration given to the blood pressures, the variations of foods in different climates and different tendencies. And if there is consideration in keeping exercises for
826-15 Page 2
keeping body physically fit, the environs may be made satisfactory wherever the body may be. But, as indicated, the tendencies are such that such a move would be physically beneficial.
8. (Q) As I understand it, the earth from 120 to 135 degrees west longitude is ruled by Scorpio, while 60 to 90 degrees west longitude is ruled by Capricorn in which sign Saturn in my natal horoscope is located. Would it be better for my health for me to go to that part of California west of 120 degrees longitude? (A) Be better in that portion about Los Angeles. That would be west, and the altitude as well as effective conditions are such as would or might have to do with the general well-being of the earth forces so as to give better acclimation for this particular body. But, it should be remembered by the body that astrological aspects in the ruling of various spheres in ANY land are merely inclinations or tendencies. Being aware of same, do not give such influences power by giving credit to them so often, or by acting against same. Rather just adjust self, self's hopes, self's desires. For, it has been given from the beginning: SUBDUE the earth and its influence; indicating that to be subdued by tendencies is to become subject to those laws rather than to a creative influence in a material, mental and spiritual understanding, controlling through the abilities of self alone. For many reasons, though, those environs would be well for the body. These may use or apply abilities in ALL phases of its studies more to the point, in those environs. But remember that just given.
9. (Q) Do you have any suggestions by which I could improve my health? (A) As outlined, take into consideration the various effects created by the varied environs. And then plan the diet and the activity to adjust self to same. For, what one digests and assimilates - mentally or spiritually or materially - has its bearing upon what is brought forth.
10. (Q) Would Los Angeles at 118 degrees west longitude ruled by Gemini and the sign Sagitattarius be as good as San Francisco or some other city? (A) As we have indicated, this would be better than other portions of this same land.
11. (Q) Is there some other city or place in the United States that would be better for my health? (A) This, as we find, would be most satisfactory; though,
826-15 Page 3
as given, the body can choose - and then adjust itself physically, mentally, spiritually. Do not leave out the spiritual attributes, nor the hopes and fears and purposes and desires of the ENTITY, the soul.
