1. GC: We have the entity here, and those relations with the universe and universal forces, as are latent and exhibited in the entity as personalities and individualities, in that entity now known as [2100].
2. In entering, we find the entity in the astrological manner coming under the influence of Pisces, in Venus and in Jupiter, in Mars, and Mercury. There are, as we find, those physical existent conditions that need their attention in the present, that the body physical, the body mental, the soul forces as manifested IN the physical body might function the better.
3. There are, then, latent AND manifested - in manners in the physical forces - those of what might, or may be termed hang over - in the soul and in the mental and in the physical development for the body. A form of catarrh exists in the mucus membranes of the system as makes for a nervousness that is detrimental to the better mental development, as well as hindering in the physical development. This, with the tendencies that are FELT as that must be accomplished in the present experience, would be unwise unless precautions are first taken as regarding these conditions; for with the body developments, those tendencies towards pulmonary disorders must be a result, as well as those of the digestive system and activities in the lower hepatic circulation. So, were these tendencies - these inclinations in the PHYSICAL altered, there would be a different mental attitude of the entity as a whole in its outlook upon THIS present experience; for under Venus, love's influence as comes from tenderness, affection, and the natural inclinations are for the entity to seek refuge from that of outward appearances, or those of a sheltered influence in the experience of the entity.
4. In Jupiter may be found that of the broader, greater vision as lies innate, and to seek that vision in the
2100-1 Page 2
developing mind in the present is to seek same in that seclusion of those forces, those elements, that would make for the greater balm or one FEARFUL of external influences in the experience of the entity. While those in Mars influence innate makes a rebellious force, that with these influences as will be seen from the experience, make for that as rebels against restraint, unless this restraint be in line with that of the entity's own choosing.
5. In the influences as are astrologically experienced by the entity in Mercury, will make for those of the ability, with the awakening of the mental and PHYSICAL being, that of a broader experience in the mental world. This MUST, however, be balanced as to make for a CONTINUITY of development of the soul and the mental being.
6. In this, then, we find that as the appearances in the earth's plane HAVE influenced, and DO in the present influence the entity - we find they come as these:
7. In the one before this we find in that experience in the land now known as New England, and about these periods when there were the settlings of the land from those that field from religious persecutions. The entity then among those of the younger generation that came into the land, and though weak in body from fatigues in that experience, yet the entity became a mighty teacher THROUGH the experience, gaining AND losing; for becoming in the latter portion one over-zealous as to the ideas as had been maintained and gained by the entity, they forgot that for which the fathers in the experience LEFT their land. Hence in the present that of the weakness, with the desire for the seeking of those of a shut-IN experience, or the FEAR innate in the self of those of SECULAR forces INFLUENCING the entity in ITS activity; and from the experiences in that experience also came that seeking shelter from the own sex. In this present we will find, that with the change of the mental attitudes, the aptitudes OF the entity will also be changed, with the application of that as is found in the mental, physical AND spiritual awakening.
8. In the one then before this, we find in that period when there were those oppressions in the land now known as the Grecian, during those periods when there were the scattering of those peoples that became as teachers, as instructors, as those that heard the new message from Him who walked in Galilee. The entity then among those that were separated, and driven THROUGH FEAR into the outer coasts of the land, being of these peoples, yet among those who had journeyed to the city for the counsel. The entity then became one that was pulled, hauled, made afraid by the physical persecutions
2100-1 Page 3
as were brought to the body through those in power, through the peoples of that period. The entity gained through the experience in being able to hold to that as gained from within as the ideal, and the life that was necessary to hold in and through the experience, suffering in body, tossed about oft in the mental, yet courageous and UNAFRAID when those perils came that brought the separation of the physical and the spiritual. In the name in this experience, that of Astubolia. Coming into the experience in the present, brings much of that same activity in the visions of the entity, in its dreams, and these influence much that as makes for that STRANGENESS at times in the entity's actions.
9. In the one before this we find in that land known as the Indian, during those periods when the peoples in the hill country overran those in the lower lands, when there were the entering in from those that had been driven out of the Mongoloid land. The entity then among those in the low lands, that were among the persecuted in that period. The entity lost AND gained through the experience. In the name Isthbod. In the present, that fear, that as comes as the desire for the beauties of nature - yet taken in as that that IS a portion of each entity's experience for a development in a given line. Hence as the abilities for transferring of color, as the inclinations in decorative influences or arts in given directions for household come from these experiences.
10. In the abilities of the entity in the present, and that to which it may attain, and how:
11. As is seen, as is outlined, were those changes in the physical forces of the body MADE, there will be a change in the outlook upon the present experience, yet that that will keep the entity and its mental and spiritual self closest in accord with those teachings of the man of Galilee will bring for the entity those satisfactions that can only be answered in the service of rendering to another that SOMETHING, that will make a BETTER light in THEIR individual lives. As a teacher, as a minister, in such fields may the entity excel, may the entity gain the most. Ready for questions.
12. (Q) What should be done for the physical body? (A) Make those corrections as will ELIMINATE these defects in the physical, by the application of those vibratory forces as will correct and remove those pressures existent in the upper dorsal and lower cervical plexus, that make for that irritation that produces in the lymph and mucus producing in the soft tissue of throat, lung, nose and face, that catarrhal or drying condition, enabling the stomach and digestive forces to become nearer a normal condition, so
2100-1 Page 4
that the balance of the physical is more in accord with the normal DEVELOPMENT of the body. Then, applying same, we would make corrections through manipulative forces, applying with same an electrical vibration as may be had from the violet rays.
13. (Q) Should she finish school or go to work? (A) We would develop the body-physical and also the body mental.
14. (Q) Is it wise to let her go in the convent? (A) When the body-physical has received a nearer normal balance, and the body-mental has received those of the more apt instructive forces, choose for itself; for in such there MAY be those forces that will answer for that longing from within - though, awakened, there are broader fields for the entity.
15. We are through for the present. Copy to Mrs. [...] [Stepmother] " " File " " Ass'n
