1. EC: ("Second day it's named - complete.")
2. We have the entity here, those relations with the universal forces that are latent and manifested in the personalities of that entity now known as or called [1228].
3. In entering this present experience we find the entity in those influences that make for the necessities of the trainings in the youth that there may be the evaluations in its experience of making choice for those opportunities that are of a constructive or of a destructive nature.
4. Naturally temperamental. Natural inclinations from these forces are in being estranged in many ways and manners, desiring at times to be alone; the choosing of peculiar associates. These will be the tendencies and hence those necessities for the giving in the developing years directions for SPIRITUAL insight into evaluations in the experience.
5. In Venus we find the making for those forces such that the entity while temperamental is very affectionate at times, but inclined to be moody in THOSE directions also.
6. Also in Venus WITH the Mercurian influence we find those tendencies for high mental abilities; for activities directed towards figures, towards mathematical inclinations. Yet as we find music and rhythm, and especially STRINGED instruments - if the direction for the activities is made along this line - will become as a portion of the entity's whole experience. Dancing, songs, pertaining to the rhythm of movement of body - these should be a portion of the entity's development. And making for these in a spiritual reaction and for purposes that are CONSTRUCTIVE will bring a career in the early portion of the entity's activity in the present sojourn.

7. These as we find are the inclinations from those particular forces.
8. And as DEVELOPING begins, the Jupiterian influences will be both in the positive and negative forces for the entity. Then in the early teens there will be the necessity for the care of the bodily forces that there may be a complete and full development of body AND mind as COORDINANT one with the other. Watch then for those things as inclined to deal with the relationships in material activities during that period; for the health, the bodily conditions, the bodily figure. These then are as the warning periods.
9. Those also as we find in the Saturn's forces, but in rather a benevolent nature, become a portion of the influences from the astrological aspects in the teen ages; changes in environs, in surroundings, in associations, in activities. Travel will be a portion of the entity's experience as a NATURAL influence. All of these, of course, are tendencies; and developing periods depend upon whether the choices by the entity will be made in these directions or whether these become merely latent urges that build for destructive forces in the experience.
10. As to the appearances in the earth, we find:
11. Before this the entity was in the land of the present nativity, during those periods when there were the early settlings in and about the 'city of brotherly love.' Those periods when there were the activities of the Quakers, as known, or the brotherhoods that formed for periods of suppression in some manners to the entity's own sex; yet the entity made for a period of development through those sojourns there, becoming as one tending in home building but as directed particularly towards those influences of what would be called church associations, church affiliations, and those activities of a religious nature. Not taking the ORDER, as it were, but rather as one that DIRECTED same - in the name then Murel Maxwell.
12. In the experience in the present we will find periods when from those latent urges as arise from sojourns in the earth in the sensory forces, or the EMOTIONS. The body becoming emotional especially in those things pertaining to the natures of rote in spiritual forces. Hence AGAIN evaluations and their correct conditions and experiences in the activity of each individual, so that the body, the mind, the soul may be coordinant in all of its relations in material, mental and spiritual attributes of the body.
13. Before that (among those making for an activity in the present) we find the entity was in the Spanish land, during those periods when there had been and there was the
1228-1 Page 3
overrunning of the land by zealots in a particular faith as a religious order.
14. The entity then in that land was among those of the husbandry activities in vineyards.
15. And as may be seen in the experiences of the entity as it develops, there are those likings for things that grow; especially vines, grapes, pomegranates, olives, things of that nature as they grow will have a particular interest for the entity.
16. The entity gained even through those periods of persecutions, those periods of turmoils. For the entity again was a home builder that came to be among those who entertained for particular groups, particular activities.
17. And in the present we will find, as from those sojourns, the inclinations in that of an entertainer, as a serenader, as one that will make for those activities in such directions.
18. Before that we find the entity was in the land now known as the Egyptian, during those periods when there were the setting outs of those who had consecrated themselves in a particular service or activity.
19. The entity was among those in the Temple Beautiful that made for the dance, that made for a particular development of the body - as of breathing exercises, as of the rhythm of the body to represent a religious WORSHIP rather than desecrations.
20. And we will find these will become as the activities of the entity in the present, if these are guided aright. For the entertainers, or those of professional entertainers, if their purposes or ideals are pure, may be as helpful as those that may be used for other activities.
21. As to the abilities of the entity in the present, then, and that to which it may attain, and how:
22. In those forces as has been indicated, if they are developed, we will find one making for a career in the early portion of the experience. Whether in music, in dancing, or in those things pertaining to teachings, will depend upon those directions to which the trainings have been given. In any of these may the entity excel.
23. In the latter portion of the experience we should find the inclination for the home building, and this becoming as the GREATER career in the experience of the entity; for in such it may bring expressions that will make for a UNIFYING of peoples of varied lands.
