1. GC: You will give the relation of this entity and the Universe, and Universal Forces, giving the conditions that are as personalities, latent and exhibited in the present life; also the former appearances in the earth's plane, giving time, place, and the name, and that in that life which built or retarded the development for the entity, giving the abilities of the present entity and to that which it may attain, and how.
2. EC: Yes, we have the entity here, and the Universal Forces as are latent and manifested in the present earth's plane.
3. In taking the position in the present earth's plane, we find one coming under the influence of the cusps, also of Mercury, Jupiter, Venus and Uranus; Pisces being, then, in that position of the greater influence, from the astrological viewpoint, which as we see, through the circumstances of the individual, which have been merited through the changes in the earth's plane, brings a great deal of influence in the life of a peculiar or strange nature, when viewed from the standpoint of the materialist.
4. In the personalities, then, as are exhibited and latent in the present earth's plane, we find one of a very refined nature, yet one often called dilatory as to personal appearances - not of personality or of person itself, but of personal appearances - not caring, as it were, or apparently seeming not to; yet one very headstrong in decisions, and often making such decisions that are rude by the entity in the passing times.
5. One that is of the studious nature.
6. One that has much appeal for and to occult and mystic forces.
7. One that, with the correct training in self, through will's force, may acquire much from the mystic and occult forces, especially in the next two years, when and while Uranus is in the ascendency, and one that, through such
2842-1 Page 2
period, may make very decided and very radical changes in the mode and manner of life, also in the tenets or principles as are found as innate at present - may become manifested in various ways and manners.
8. One that is ever turned toward those conditions that would be ennobling and helpful to others. One, however, that desires to see physical results from such endeavors by self's own hand, and often sees in others their successes when others themselves do not.
9. One that has, within self's own ability, those abilities capable of being raised to that position of giving much to others that will be remembered long, long, in the earth's plane, especially in that way and manner of teaching in the way of service to the young, and especially to those of the adolescent period. One that will find in the present earth's plane this character, this nature of endeavor, more satisfying, and bringing greater satisfaction to those conditions in self's mind, mentally and physically, that have not as yet been answered by the manifested forces in the earth's plane.
10. One who, through the influence of former appearances, finds many contrary-wise urges within, that have often brought self to the point of desiring PHYSICAL destruction of the body.
11. One that will bring to the earth's forces much in the way of the development in mental forces, will's force of the entity in the coming two years be guided or led aright.
12. In appearances:
13. In one before this we find in that country about Salem, when the peoples were persecuted for the belief in those vibrations called by those people as witchcraft, vision, or ones believing in familiar spirits. The entity then in that of Sally Dale, and the entity lost the life (physical) through the cold caught by dipping, for the entity then one accused of such. In the urge as is seen - that of the entity's fear EVER to allow self to express fully that felt from within when dealing with such subjects.
14. In the one before this we find in that day of the division of the countries now known as Germany and France, and the entity among those in the frontier countries that saw the destruction of lands through forces attempting to force rule. Then in the name of Rubenhs, and the entity gained in that period, for, with the abilities of the entity, there came the opportunity to give aid to others, which was done by that entity, and through same brought much satisfaction to the inmost being of the entity, or a development of the soul. In the urge as is seen, the entity
2842-1 Page 3
ever desires to take the part of one persecuted, either for political or religious rights, yet never siding with any that gives only force for the excuse of conquest.
15. In the one before this we find in that of the Grecian country, when the wars were being waged from the isles and from the east. The entity then among those who assisted in the art and sculpture of that day, in the name Pericolecee. In the period the entity developed, for with the period of the oppression there came the development, through the desire to aid those that were unfortunate in their choice of sides, and the entity assisted in that period. The urge as seen is the love of the beautiful in figure, and in art, as pertains to those of the manifested arts, in such as statuary or of Grecian architectural arts.
16. In the one before this we find in that period when the Atlantean forces were at their height. The entity then in that of the temple worship gave the sacrificial offerings for the peoples then worshiped under the rule of that sex, and the entity lost and gained in that period, for, with the destruction of the peoples, the entity lost, in that the desires of the earthly nature. In the name Azzee, and the entity gave much in the first portion of the life through that of the beautifying of the temple service, and the desire in the present for those of beautiful textural garments is seen from this period.
17. In the one before this in the Indian country (now known), in the earlier period of the peoples giving self in worship. From the hills came the entity to the valleys with those who began the agricultural development of that land. In the name then Uzzlld, and the entity lost in that period through self-aggrandizement of the bodily forces as were used in the way of seducing the peoples of that land, in the subduing of the land to the servitude of the entity. In the urge as is seen - the fear of self's own application to peoples in bodily form or way, and fear of the opposite sex.
18. As to that which the entity may attain in the present sphere, is as given, through service as may be made, especially along the line of teaching in that to the young, and in the way of the development of the mental toward that of mystic and occult forces from within, and, as is seen, the development only comes with service to others, for in losing self in service can gain be made to the higher forces, or to the satisfaction of the spirit and soul.
19. We are through for the present.
