1. EC: Yes, we have the entity and those relations with the universe and universal forces, that are latent and manifested in the personalities of the entity called [876].

2. In giving that which may be helpful to the entity in the present, it is well that there be considered first the sources of such information and the creditability of same in the experience of self, that in the application of same there may be made not only the material and the mental advantages but the soul development. For each soul must meet in its own self that the entity or body metes to its fellow man in its ideal relations with such. This, then, prompts to what is the ideal, that each soul must have. That which answers from within itself as to that it, the entity, would live with as its God, or Creative Force in its experience. It is not what man has conceived for his own relationships, but the individual relationship to that it would make as its creative force.

3. To be sure, the question is then asked, what has this to do with the source of the information that may thus here be given - or its authenticity? This:

4. That unless there is the answer within self of that which IS given, then this does not meet the needs of the entity, [876] here, see?

5. In the astrological we find these of a great detail in the experience of the entity, for this has been made in part also a portion of the entity's experience in the material world. For, coming in those influences of Uranus with Jupiter, it makes for these as innate experiences in the entity's sojourn in the present:

6. Relationships that to many might be questionable, yet

876-1 Page 2

within self bringing the material gains that are not questioned in ANY realm; and thus making for the individual activity as being of that which is sometimes very, VERY good in the relationship to its own ideal, others just the opposite. Making for these as experiences in the present sojourn of the entity as the rule, much may be gained by the entity in the world; yet the application in the mental and spiritual world must be applied from within self and in its relationships to others.

7. As to the appearances in the earth and those that make for - with those sojourns - the innate and manifested abilities within the experience of the entity in the present, we find:

8. Before this the entity was during those periods when there were many questionings of those that would make for changes in the material outlook upon man's relationships with the individuals in varied portions of the earth.

9. The entity then was among those of the venturesome type, as may be called in the present. For, in the name Guelliespi, the entity was among those of the group that with Colombo made the second of the voyages to the new land, or to the settlings in the land in which the entity now finds the greater activities; making for, throughout the experience, that of a journeying here, journeying there, and making for that of being among the first of the drawings with Vespucii. The entity acted in what is NOW the southern portions of the land of the present sojourn, during the experience making for mental and material gains. For, as may be seen in the present, though making for associations and conditions that may be questioned in some directions, it makes for the satisfying of desires, relationships with others that become the more active in the experiences of those about the entity. These, as indicated from those sojourns in the Uranian influence, may be termed or turned to very good or very bad; dependent upon the purposes, the desires, the basis for which the entity in its inner self makes for such activity in the material experience. Not as burning or burying or disdaining the inner conscience or the promptings of self, but as the fulfilling of that as would be in associations with its greater ideals in the experiences of relationships with the individuals, the fellow man, the Maker, the Creative Forces within the earth.

10. Before this we find the entity was in that land now known as the Egyptian, during those periods when there were the turmoils and strifes that had arisen from the rebelling forces after the banishment of the Priest and with the beginnings of the entering in of those from the isles of the

876-1 Page 3

sea, or those from the Atlantean land. It was when those changes came about through the activities with the correlating of those in the Indian, the Mongolian, the Caucasian, the Incan, and even in what may be called the descendants from Mu or Lemuria. These the entity aided in gathering those tenets in the various forms as to the activities and associations; and the entity's interests then were in the means of communications with those of many lands and those activities that made it not only possible for the spiritual upbuild but the mental and commercial associations.

11. The entity made for advancement in the material associations in that experience, and brought for many of those through such activities the closer relationships in same.

12. And in the present from that experience the entity's associations or directions with, or investments in, airways, air lines, will make for the experience that may bring to the entity the greater satisfaction, the greater endeavors and activities in the present experience.

13. Before that we find the entity was in that called the Atlantean land, in those periods when there were the beginnings of the activities of the sons of Belial and those of the Law of One.

14. The entity then was among those peoples that were of the Law of One, yet it was set upon because of being in the position of power - being the SON of the ruler, or Ajax, and in the name then Elmeur. The entity, as the Prince of the Poseidian land, was set upon by the sons of Belial to make for those activities that would bring the desecrating of the Temple of the Law of One; through those influences of the daughters of the sons of Belial.

15. And these made for activities that brought to the experience of the entity that as would be called in the present of making relationships and activities that brought dissensions, discouragements, and the attempts first to destroy the own self, the own life.

16. And the experiences in the present with those of the opposite sex have brought much of like experiences where attempts in this or that direction have been made. For the alterations, the phases of experiences of individuals have made for distresses; yet at times enlightenment and helpful experiences when the real activities were meted out.

17. As to the abilities of the entity in the present, then, and that to which it may attain, and how:

18. Many are the abilities, as indicated from the experiences and the positions of the entity in its

876-1 Page 4

relationships to its fellow man. For ever is it written that many individuals, of groups, of masses, of all status of the relationships in the material world WILL be influenced, ARE influenced, by the words and the activities of the entity. And this the entity must answer in self; thou ART thy brother's keeper.

19. As to the abilities, those things that pertain to the relationships of exchange between the groups and of masses in lands that are adjacent and are to the material aspects far apart in their activities are of interest; especially those that will deal with communicating lines, as either in the areoplane or communicative lines or ship lines. Any of the communications that have to do with groups that the entity is associated with will bring the greater material returns, giving the OPPORTUNITY for the mental abilities of the entity to express itself in those directions as indicated that must be met by every soul in its sojourn through materiality. For again and again one must meet self, and be able more and more to stand aside and watch self and its relations and its dealings with its fellow man pass by. For we meet ourselves. And in these activities may the entity make for the greater material and mental and spiritual development, that of meting to its fellow man in such relationships that as it would have done unto it.

20. Ready for questions.

21. (Q) What do you suggest would be best for me to do regarding my family relations? (A) These, as has been indicated, are those things that you are meeting in thine own self and thine own dealings with thy fellow man and thy relationships with thy fellow man. As to others, and those that have that position where there are obligations, duties to self and to others, meet same. As ye would have them do to you, do ye even so to them.

22. (Q) How long will this present situation last? (A) That depends upon some phases and what the self does about it. It is not a condition, not a position that makes a change; it's what individuals do ABOUT it!

23. (Q) I plan to undertake the establishment of a cabaret. Do you find this would be advantageous? (A) Be very good; provided this has to do - or the greater portion - with many of the associations that are the abilities of the entity; that will be the greater in those of communication relations. As for the cabaret and its activities, if these are kept in accord with the proper activities so that they are not questioned, well. If these bring those things that are questionable in thine own experience, or in the experience of thy fellow man, then not

876-1 Page 5

so well. For remember, there have been questionings on the part of others as concerning thy activities. Let not thy words of mouth nor thy activities bespeak other than in accordance with that which is CONSTRUCTIVE in the experience of others.

24. (Q) May I expect financial assistance from my friend who has offered me help in the past? (A) You may.

25. (Q) What specific connections would you suggest regarding communications? (A) American Airways, or those of the Italian lines. Either of these.

26. (Q) In what capacity? (A) As an investor, or as one that would - well, he would eventually be a director!

27. (Q) Is my son in the right environment, and am I having the proper influence on him? (A) This is rather a large order of a question! The environment in which he finds himself, the son, is a part of thine own making, is it not? Then, that which thou doest towards making for these to become or to be the molding forces in the experience of the entity, may be much of thine own doing or undoing. Each soul must meet its own self. Let thy words as counsel, as advice, be in keeping with that which will be constructive in the experience of thy son, and ye will see he will not bring that which will be questioned by others. Very good environment!

28. (Q) Would you advise that the entity enter some relation with the communications in preference to the cabaret enterprise, or both? (A) It may be a means through which there may eventually come growth. Begin with the investments in the communications and let this be the latter portion of thy material activity. Keep first, as indicated, in the position of knowing thine ideal within thyself. Be thou sincere. Be thou true to thine own inner self. KNOW ye must meet yourself. For the manifestations in the earth of man's activity are the inner man's concept of its Creator, as it deals with its fellow man. And each soul must meet these, materially, mentally, spiritually.

29. We are through for the present. Copy to Self
