Time of Reading 3:45 to 4:15 P. M. Eastern War Time. ..., Virginia.
1. HLC: You will have before you the entity [2533], born December 22, 1904, in Norfolk, Va. You will give an aura chart of the entity, indicating the symbols, colors, and the meaning of each, that they may be made into a drawing that would be of help to the entity.
2. EC: Yes, we have the records here of that entity now known as or called [2533].
3. In giving an aura chart - this is the attempt to use signs (and these are indicated by the signs of the zodiac) to indicate the form of activity of the entity through any individual experience, or a portion of the individual experience.
4. That upon the left usually indicates that with which or in which the entity enters. The symbol of the planet is that with which the hope or activity is directed, or the channel of activity.
5. That upon the right indicates the attainments, if any, and the manner in which these are attained - by the signs of the zodiac or the symbolical influences in the experience.
6. That picturized or directed as to activity indicates the application of the individual entity's influence in some period.
7. Thus, in this entity's experiences - we find these to be represented as follows; and the beauty or symmetry of the drawing, to be sure, depends upon the artist's concept of that attempted to be given.
8. As it ever has been in the experience of an individual entity in the earth, a drawing or a picture represents much more than words could possibly give. For, such drawings will answer to the moods of an entity. Thus, as the study or analysis of same is attempted by an entity, it enables an individual entity to stress or to release some influences that are constantly kept before it in such a drawing.
9. For this entity, then:

10. In the center, at the bottom of such a drawing, we would put a pyramid - with the sphinx in the distance; while upon each side, in symbol figures, would be - on the left a figure with a sickle reaping grain, that was ripe; on the right an individual worker in stone. These would indicate the period, the activities and the helpful forces as given to the individual workers unified in a purpose - the pyramid as of the temple of dedication, the sphinx as knowledge, understanding or wisdom. These in themselves indicate the colors, according to the nature of the work. This shall not be a vignetted figure but rather as an outline following the general contour of that picturized there.
11. Upon the left of this indicate the earth, the symbol of same, with Aries in black - four figures about the earth; the earth in verdant green - that is, the sign or symbol of same.
12. Upon the right put the symbol or sign of Mercury; this in gold and green, and the sign of the zodiac Pisces about same - this, too, in black.
13. Above this, vignetted, would be the sun breaking, or rising through the clouds close to the horizon, with a city in the distance; with a caravan of at least six camels closer to the foreground but going toward the sun and the city. These should be in natural colors - the sun, with the clouds and the colors as reflected upon the city, white mostly, in the distance; shaded with the sands and the quite brilliant colors of the figures with the camels. The number six here (or camels) would indicate not only the period and the place but the activity of the individual in its associations with the activities of the city, and of the commerce; and the sun representing the manner in which the entity was active there.
14. Upon the left put the symbol of Jupiter; this in coral pink with gray, and the sign of the zodiac Leo in black, very small, but four - at the top, bottom and each side.
15. Upon the right put the symbol of the old moon, or last quarter - this in color pink and gray, a little blue and green - shaded about same - and the sign of the zodiac Libra, small, black, four in number. (Black, here, only indicates the figure or color to make them impressed upon the entity interpreting same in his experience.)
16. Above this put a mountain, with great numbers gathered at the base of same; not individualized so much, but the speaker individualized, and symbolized by the light above the head. The characters indicated should be both men and women, but indicating rather a large crowd. No animals
2533-5 Page 3
would be depicted here save some birds, as in the shrubs and trees that would be partially in the foreground and partially to the side and in the distance. Only one or two birds in the air, and these white. The rest would be in the trees or foliage, and would be rather gray in color, or black and the like. Those in the air would be as doves or pigeons, while those in the trees would be rather the blackbird, or the raven, or the dove and the pigeon in portions of same; but most of these in pairs. These would indicate the place, and the symbols of that motivating the experience of the entity through the sojourn in the earth. This, too, would be a vignetted or shaded figure, that is, that picturized.
17. Upon the left would be the symbol of Venus; this in a light blue with not exactly gold but golden hues with same; and the signs about same would be Scorpio, in black.
18. Upon the right put Mercury, blue with gold edges, and the ram as the symbol about same - these in black.
19. Above this in the center put the figure that would represent the activity of commerce, or the machinery of mills, with smoke rising from same. On one side put the little home, smoke also arising from same, and a figure approaching toward same. On the other side (the right) put a barnyard, with at least two or three characters of animals about same; not too sombre in color (this whole central figure) and yet not too gay in its picturizing; this giving a period and an activity, and the service or work of the entity.
20. As to the signs of the activities - upon the left put Saturn, with its rings; these, to be sure, not too highly colored, but more of red and gray and blue, and the symbol or sign about this of Aries - these giving the activity through that experience.
21. Upon the right put the sign of Neptune; this giving off the colors of silver, blue and a little pink, to relieve the tension in same; and the signs about same of Sagittarius.
22. These are the influences in the experience of the entity.
23. As to the attainments - set, in the center above this - not too large - the sun; not just rising but as high in the heavens. Under same would be the Cross, and this not with a figure on same but the shadow just very little beneath same. The sun, to be sure, would be in gold - as also the Cross; though shaded in gray upon the sides of same.
24. Upon each side of this put the stars - seven upon each side; larger in the lower portion, fading as to size as they go upward. These would be in white and gold; with a cloud
2533-5 Page 4
over the edge of the stars to the right, extending over the sun to the left side of the drawing.
25. This is the attainment - in the Cross, and the strength thereof; the stars of thy desires, of thy hopes attained only in Him - the Son.
26. We are through for the present. Copy to Self " " Miss Wynne " " Ass'n file " Ass'n file
