1. EC: We have the entity here, and those relations with the universe and universal forces, as are latent and exhibited in the present entity.
2. In entering astrologically, we find these would be at advarience to those conditions exhibited in the present experience, through the application of the will's influence, both through the sojourn in the earth's experience and in those spheres through which the entity has passed.
3. In the entering, we find those influences under Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, with those influences in Saturn and Uranus.
4. In those conditions, then, innately expressed, we find in the influences as seen, the mental abilities being those above that of the other influences in the experience; so that, irrespective of that in Jupiterian or Venus, REASON to the entity becomes paramount, and unless there can be some reasonableness in the situations, little credence is given by the entity in ITS application to USAGES of such. Hence the mechanical turn of mind is reasoned with that as has been gained by OTHER minds. Hence, as a statistician, or datastician, the entity in the present experience seeks detail, and in any application in the business field must necessarily, to the entity, show detail and profit IN the detail to be worth considering.
5. In the applications of the influences as are apparent, those in that field, then, offer for the entity the MECHANICAL end for developments in manufacturing and in that of MECHANICAL manufacturing, or those elements that make for details in business association; whether that of the personal nature or that of the general relationships with groups OR individuals.
6. In the appearances and the influences these have IN the present experience:
7. In the one before this we find in that land now known as German. The entity during that period when there were changes and inter-changes of the associations with the borderland, and in the period when there were the
2856-1 Page 2
establishing of the relations through the inter-marriage of those of the land with those of other lands, in that period known as during that of the Black Prince. The entity then in the name Goetia, gave much to those peoples in the way of communications, and of the ways of defense to the lands. Not as the soldier, but rather as the councillor, or engineer - as would be termed in the present experience, but rather as the dreamer, the thinker, during that period. Through this experience the entity gained little, for with the coming of power - and with the coming of those of the worldly goods - the entity used same for self's satisfaction, self-aggrandizement. These elements in the life of selfish INTERESTS in the present, will the entity have most to combat. Not that the element of the influence of both that in moral, spiritual, or religious influence, does not have its effect; but REASONABLENESS will, to the entity, crowd same out, as the entity sees it, and LITTLE faith does the entity have in that that CANNOT be handled, touched, and seen. These must be overcome, else introspection will be far, and AGAIN may the entity turn to Saturn for remoulding.
8. In the one before this we find in that period known as the Trojan. The entity then of those that aided in the defense of the city, and especially under the influence of Achilles during that period. Not so much the soldier, as one preparing the way for those who would wage war, and making of weapons during portion of the period, and among those who made for the mechanical arrangements of the horse and its workings, in the latter portion. In the name Parsia. In the experience the entity gained much during the early portion, losing in the latter through that of the FEELING BUILDED as RESENTMENT TO those in power; yet innate there is felt in the present those of too much honor due those who have succeeded in position or power, or in money, or in fame. Rather does the entity see that position, than as to how, why, or when same was acquired.
9. In the one before this we find in that period known as the Atlantean. The entity then among those peoples who gained much understanding of the application of the night-side of life, or of the negative influences in the earth's spheres of those who gave much understanding in the manner of transmission of sound, voice, picture, and such, to the peoples in the period, using same to self's own destruction; for the entity gained a high position during this experience, and in the Sacred City of Peos (?) the entity RULED with an UNLIMITED power; yet to self's and to soul's own undoing. In the NAME Sonl. In the present, the
2856-1 Page 3
abilities to see, vision, and to work out in mechanical form; also to see through those of the IDEAS as may have to do with mechanics and with the developments of same for man's own use. In these lines the abilities lie in the entity.
10. As to the application, as to whether these are for the building up or the undoing of man's own self, will the entity gain or decrease in its present experience.
11. The abilities, then, lie in that direction as has been seen. Keep self in attunement with that that will lift up, direct to the understanding of the relationships of the created to the Creator; that, not as pawns were they made, but that they might be one with Him in the whole scheme of universal and the universal forces in THEIR application. Not to be moved as powers for self's aggrandizement, but as for self's UNDERSTANDING.
12. In love's influence, then, will the entity gain the more.
13. We are through for the present. Copy to Self " " Ass'n office " " Datastician
