1. GC: You will give the relation of this entity and the universe, and the universal forces, giving the conditions which are as personalities, latent and exhibited in the present life; also the former appearances in the earth plane, giving time, place and the name, and that in each life which built or retarded the development for the entity; giving the abilities of the present entity and that to which it may attain, and how. You will answer the questions which may be submitted, as I ask them:
2. EC: (In going back over years from present - " - '20 - very interesting life experience - '19 - '18 - " etc., on back to birth date.)
3. Yes, we have the records here of that entity now known as [1847].
4. In giving the interpretations of the records here, as we find there are many influences that have borne and do bear upon the emotions and the activities of this entity - as symbols.
5. And the fleur-de-lis' should be an emblem about the entity at all times.
6. Colors have a great deal of influence. Hence gray, mauve and delicate shades of colors bring harmonious emotions and should be a part of the entity's apparel at all times.
7. Pearls and diamonds are the stones that bring the vibratory reactions and the experiences in the environs of the entity.
8. Hence we find - but irrespective of what the entity has done about same -
9. One very sensitive and intuitive in its inner self; one capable of psychometrizing most anything by the very emotions that vibrations bring to the entity.
10. And with the abilities of the entity to express or to put into words the emotions, writing of such things should be a part of the entity's experience.
1847-1 Page 2
11. This would give an outlet for the entity to much of that which is innately and manifestedly a part of the emotions of the entity.
12. And these might bring, through the very experiences of the entity, helpful forces and influences in the experiences of others.
13. Then, as the purpose of each soul's entrance into a material plane is to leave the environs in such a manner that others may be aided in their search for those influences that bring creative energies to be a portion of the manifested activity, these would be those forces to which expression should be given by the entity in the present.
14. In choosing the activities in the entity's experience or sojourn, or the interpretation of the records here - these, of course, are chosen with the desire that the experience be a helpful one.
15. Hence, though the faults as well as the virtues may be indicated, these are given that the entity may apply self in such a manner as to become a better, a greater channel for aid and help and hope in the experiences of others.
16. As we find, as indicated by those of the period - while astrological aspects are not as ordinarily indicated by the manner the entity has applied self in the present experience to the mental and material environs - these show indications, as from the sojourn of the entity in those environs which are accredited with such influences. For as one thinketh in the heart, so do such influences become active in the entity's experience.
17. In Venus - the beauty, the delicate activities, and the inclinations for the entity to always hold something as it were in reserve in itself, that it doesn't give expression to, to all. There may be glimpses here and there. Hence EVERYONE will find the entity an INTERESTING individual with whom to converse.
18. For the depths of the entity's mental self - as in Mercury AND Venus - are never given as a full expression of itself.
19. Hence as a mystery is to the mental self, so an individual with that temperament or tendency remains as an interesting individual to others.
20. In Jupiter - the abilities to influence or direct in the activities of self the actions of others; and these must be, or should be, as indicated, a part of the entity's experience or activity in the present sojourn.
21. The Uranian influence makes for the interest in the occult, or the scientific, or the mysterious. And by its
1847-1 Page 3
very expression the entity often leaves a wonderment, in conversation with another, as to how much or how little or what application the entity makes of this knowledge respecting itself; but judged by all as using many influences or forces not fully expressed in awareness to others.
22. As to the appearances in the earth, then - these we find quite at variance to the present activities, - according to the varied environs that are indicated.
23. Before this we find the entity was in the land now known as the French, during those periods when there was the formation or the determination being made as to those influences which would be impelling forces for the activities of the groups and the masses.
24. There we find the entity was closely associated with those who were determining factors in not only the political life but the nationalism of the country itself.
25. Thus, as indicated in the emblems, these come to mean much in the experience of the entity.
26. The entity was a lecturer, as would be termed in the present, or a staunch advocate of the nationalist movements for the greater mass or numbers of peoples during the experience - in the name Charlean Heltzlett.
27. In the experience the entity gained, for - though in the opposite sex from that of the present - it made for those activities in which there came many of those determining factors in the governmental and in the ruling influences.
28. Hence all things pertaining to that land are INNATELY a part of the entity.
29. And the arousing of the emotions comes through the very influences and forces as experienced and manifested during that particular experience.
30. Before that we find the entity was in the Indo-China land, and of the original activities that arose from the descendants from Mu and Saneid - for these were a part of the entity's experience.
31. While the entity enjoyed the positions in the activities of the city which has become as naught, we find that the entity also gave of itself in verse and song, and in those activities in directions which would strengthen not only its own peoples but make defenses for the peoples of that particular land.
32. The name then was Fuchoiu.
33. In the present experience, things pertaining to the oriental MIND become of special interest to the entity; as also especially the intricate work as carvings, filagree, and activities of such a nature that were a part of the
1847-1 Page 4
entity's experience through that sojourn. Things overlaid with gold or ivory or coral, things of that nature become a part of the entity's experience - these are innate or manifested by a great influence.
34. Hence the abilities of the entity in the present to attain or maintain close relationship to vibratory influences and forces, whether they emanate from the mineral, the animal, or the vegetable kingdoms. All of these become innately as portions of the entity's experience.
35. Before that we find the entity was in the Persian land, during those periods when the 'city in the hills and the plains' was active in bringing to the consciousness of many of the people during that period the realization of the brotherhood of man.
36. These were activities in which the entity came from the Indian lands but sojourned in the 'city in the hills and the plains.'
37. Thus the entity became a healer through those experiences, and through those activities; giving much of self in the raising and the interpreting of the temperament and the activities of the varied groups that journeyed hither and thither through the periods of sojourn there.
38. The name then was Amaomi. In the experience the entity gained, for its activities were for others rather than for self.
39. Before that we find the entity was in the Egyptian land, during the periods when there were the reconstructions with the activities of the Atlanteans and the returned Priest and the Natives who had become as a part of the great purpose for the dissemination of those truths or tenets.
40. There we find the entity acted rather in the capacity of what would be called in the present a historian; keeping the records of the activities not only of the Priest but of the laymen as well as the politicians or rulers in that particular land.
41. The name then was Tamoi.
42. As to the experience in the present and the application of self, as to the abilities and the meeting of self in the influences as may be wrought:
43. Study first to show thyself approved unto that thou hast set as thine ideal. Know these are found in man's attempt to seek the closer relationship with the Creative Forces or the sources of his material sojourn; and that only in the applying of same in the MATERIAL things, as in relation one to another, may these become a part of the experience of all.
1847-1 Page 5
44. Ready for questions.
45. (Q) What have been my relationships in the past with [1522] and what are the mutual urges to be met? (A) The aids to one another, through the activities in the Persian land, when we find there were the closer relationships in the attempts of each to aid others in their better interpreting of spiritual truths in their relationships to others; in body, in mind, in spirit. Hence in the present, those aids and the strength that may be given each other become a part of the experience.
46. (Q) With my friend, Edith Ives? (A) This as we find may be better found in a paralleling, - but these relationships were through those periods in what is now called the Indo-China land.
47. (Q) Dr. Allis Hascall? (A) This in the same way and manner, and in the same experience.
48. (Q) Maybell Smith? (A) We do not find an association in the material plane, save in the present.
49. We are through for the present. Copy to Self " " Ass'n file " Ass'n file
