Time of Reading 11:45 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. New York City.
1. GC: You will have before you the body and the enquiring mind of [900], of ..., St., N.Y. City, and the dreams this body had on the dates which I will give you. You will give the interpretation and lesson to be gained for each of these, as I read same to you, and you will answer the questions which I will ask you regarding same.
2. EC: Yes, we have the body, the enquiring mind, [900]. This we have had here before. Some conditions as surround the body this morning, some are more satisfactory, some are not so well, and the entity finds self much in a quandary as regarding some holdings. Ready for dreams.
3. (Q) Tuesday Morning, Nov. 9, 1926. [137] and I met our Uncle [...] in our old 101st St. apartment. He said to us: "I hear a big bull market is going to start up out of a clear blue sky." "Not yet," a man with glasses replied. The latter seemed to speak with authority. "I hear a big bull market is going to set in," repeated my Uncle [...] in characteristic fashion. "Yes," again answered the other, "But not yet." "I hear a bull market is on the way," insisted my uncle. Bewildered, [137] and I turned to the calendar and it seemed all confused in red and black numbers and we had the wrong things on the wrong days. It seemed to need putting together, as does the parts of my manuscript, and I seemed to be trying to use symbols to do so, as I do in the manuscript - indicating, I suppose "TIME" as we experience CHANGE and symbolize it time. (A) In this there is presented through the entity's subconscious forces in touch with those elements as go to make up the whole, in this way and manner there is seen, as it were, the two sides of conditions as are represented in reference to the market conditions. There is, as is insisted in the three admonitions, and in the way as given, the bull market to start - yet, as is seen, there is at present, and will be until near the change of the calendar - as the calendar is seen black and red, or near to Thanksgiving Day - the change in the market, when suddenly

just before that time will come the sudden rise and the fall, with the greater rise in the early portion of the coming year, as time is seen, and as reference is seen in the various symbols and numbers as are experienced by the entity in the jumble, as it were, of conditions, and the attempt of self to straighten same. The inability of the entity to gain the full intent is as of fear from within, yet these conditions applied in the correct way and manner will bring better results and that as a satisfactory condition to the entity. The general change as is seen - that is, the insistency of the bears, the pugnacity of the bull, see? until near the 25th, see? or the red lettered or red numbered days. The sudden change and the sudden changes following, with the general and greater rise later on, see?
4. (Q) Then I reasoned that with steel as the leader - if they did something at the January market, a real bull market might be inaugurated and sustained. (A) As will be and is seen, see?
5. (Q) Will a definite bull market (upward price) be started? (A) Be started, as has been given, see?
6. (Q) Will it be sustained? (A) After the first of the year.
7. (Q) Then I wondered about my sale of Nash Motors at 54 5/8 and the Voice replied: "Those who sold Nash at 55 3/8 - 55 and 54 5/8 know where they can lay their hands on every share of stock sold. Do you?" (A) In this there is that presented to the entity of those conditions as referred to as of the fear as has arisen within self as to the conception of those conditions as presented themselves to the entity in regards to this particular stock - for as Voice is seen as a reprimand to the entity, [900], that not wholly nor innately was that condition followed that presented itself in the inward manner concerning this stock. Rather that of listening to other influences whom the entity felt, materially, should know, and this in itself gives that answer through the Voice speaking, "Do you?" see? This individual stock, Nash Motors, as we find, will be one of those that will see much change in before this sudden spurt or rise as will come, and will bear some days of the bear movement, and suddenly find the bulls taking charge of same, see? The entity, then, should follow that innate information as the entity itself has received concerning same, and as WILL be received concerning same, rather than that of outward or of material conditions as the entity
900-278 Page 3
knows - and as seen and as has experience, the real inward self may experience the greater truth when not perceptible to the materialist. This, as is seen, refers to market, to other conditions, to EVERY condition, whether of the material, spiritual, filial, social nature - for it is as the law of such conditions wherein there enters ANY condition of there being doubt of right or wrong, see?
8. (Q) This may mean that those who sold Nash sold against long stock - that is sold to repurchase later on at a lower level, stock possessed and that if the lower price is not reached, may be delivered against the sale. I, however, must buy in my sale of stocks because I may not likewise deliver. Thus, altho the stock goes down after delivery and those delivering repurchase at the lower level, I will have been forced to cover at the higher price because of not being able to deliver. Thus my case is different from others selling Nash - is this what is indicated? (A) Rather that indicated as has been OUTLINED, that the entity followed outside influences as regarding this stock, rather than that information obtained innately through self, through self's experiences regarding this stock, see? Though the entity may, in the material manner, classify same in that way as has been set forth as an ENSAMPLE of just the condition as has been stated, see?
9. (Q) [137] and I went into a dark bathrom and something peculiar seemed to be lying on the floor. I picked it up and it seemed a light having fallen out of a socket and no longer functioning. I looked at it and wondered. "I told you not to sell Nash Motors," said [137]. (A) This again that direct condition as is shown to the entity, that the light that the entity has attained has not been applied in this condition regarding Nash Motors, see? for, as is seen, the light representing that condition in which entity finds self in this manner that it does not function when not adhered to or followed or used in the way and manner as has been given, and as is set for the entity to use such. Take heed, then. Follow in the way and manner as brings to the entity the more perfect understanding, and the more perfect union with that Oneness of Universal Forces that may prove beneficial to the entity in mind, in heart, in body, in social, in financial, in every way and manner - for those conditions as have been set before the entity are as the truths, and truly become the light that shines in the darkness - yet the light may be broken by not taking heed to its proper use and the right manner of applying same. Heeding rather the voice of many, than that STILL SMALL VOICE from within.

10. (Q) Voice: "The French naif and gaining much therefrom." (A) That as is seen is as a portion of the studies of the entity as regarding certain elemental conditions as pertaining to the studies in which the entity engages self at times, and, as is seen, this rather the injunction to the entity that certain conditions are gaining in the manner of understanding among men - that is, some of the readings in which the entity has been engaged.
11. (Q) I felt that this indicated Bergson's frank and open indication of feeling the elan of life and the ability of the intellect to turn thereto for proof of the existence of this elan vital, the proof thus gained by experience that knows it is experiencing - i.e. by the intellect pursuing a different kind of experience. (A) This, as has been outlined, following along these channels in the very DEFINITE way and manner, as has been outlined - yes.
