1. EC: We have the entity here, [2908], and those relations with the universe and universal forces, as are latent and exhibited in the present entity.
2. In the relationships as are seen with this entity, those of the astrological influence may have much to do with the inclinations of the entity, unless environs change or alter same through the application of will's influence in the earth's experience.
3. In entering in the present experience, we find these - from sojourn - have their greater influence in the innate and manifested influences in the life at present of the entity.
4. In Venus we find that love that is manifested for things, places, conditions, and the tendency to make light of even the sacred things in life, or relationships in life; yet this instilling, as it were, those same influences that bring for the entity the greater expressions of self.
5. In those in Mercury are seen that of the keen mental ability, and capable of seeing or making the joke as respecting circumstances, or of ANY condition as has to do with the entity's experience.
6. In Jupiter is seen the broadness of vision, even when OTHERS may expect that the entity has NOT gained the insight into a situation, a circumstance, and conditions - yet FOR the entity, life - in its entirely - is something to BE enjoyed.
7. In that seen in Mercury AND in Jupiter, bring for the home life - which will mean the most to the entity in the development, and in that TO which the entity may experience or gain in this present experience.
8. As we find in the present, one that is in that moulding stage wherein the various phases of life and life's experiences are at their beginnings, or turning points in the experiences, and the entity is one that will find in the
2908-1 Page 2
various experiences as may be given by others, in the matter of that as of the comparison in the entity's experience, make for the entity those conditions that are ABOVE the normal in this entity; that is, few may gain the actual working knowledge of any experience without having experienced the fact. To the entity, the vision is sufficient that those experiences by others, of others, become lessons in the entity's OWN experience, and the fact that there is the understanding in the entity of relationships that are not usual, or nominal, to one of the present YEARS' experience, shows the vision to which the ENTITY'S MENTAL being has gained.
9. In the experiences in the earth's plane, and the influence these have in the present experience, and WILL have in the present experience:
10. In the one before this we find in that period, in that land known as France, during the rule of the second Louis. The entity then among those who were of the court of that period. One who gained where MANY lost, through the conditions as regarding the social and political relationships; becoming entanglements and snares for many. In the name Louise, the entity gained in that experience - being that influence that brought for those who served, the succor and aid that made for the court, as WELL as for the common people. In the present the jest and the jester are to the entity as sacred as the minister or the saint, and are of one within. In the application of self in this direction in this experience may this be made to wield that influence that would bring success for the entity, and the entity's associations and surroundings. The entity failed IN this experience in creating the home surroundings or environs as sought, and WILL in the PRESENT experience seek to establish this first and foremost in the INNATE self, as well as the physical manifestations of same, and will be well that this BE that to which the entity attains; NOT that there are not to be the well rounded experiences of the entity, but this the first and foremost experience for the entity's BEST development.
11. In the one before this we find in that of the Grecian land, when there were changes in the associations of the peoples during the latter portion of Xenophon's rule. The entity then among those that gained the understanding of that necessary for entertainment for both the high and the low, and opening the first of those of the periods that enabled those of high estate, as well as of the mediocre and common peoples, to have the advantages of those lessons gained, in the viewing of the various conditions in man's
2908-1 Page 3
experience as expressed in the forums and in the theatres of that period. In the name Xenia. The entity gained through this experience in the early portion; losing in the latter through that of condemning self for the faults as were errors on the part of associates and NOT of self. In this experience there will be seen that friendships are made easily, and as easily are passed for others. This may be made to become a bane or may be made to become a success, dependent upon the application of self as respecting those relationships with friends and foe; for in the applications these may be easily gained, that one may NEVER have so many friends as to be able to lose a single one, no matter are they the scrub woman.
12. In the one before this we find in that period when changes were made in that land known as Egypt. The entity then in that land during that period when the setting up of the rule brought consternation to the peoples of the land. Gaining only in the re-establishing of that land when the one in power through position held in the temple that the entity came to worship, and the entity then gained through that portion of the experience. In the present will be seen that, while things sacred and things worshipful are often passed over lightly, deep in the heart and soul of the entity is a reverence that is hard to surpass. Hence in the training and in the counsel, there must be stern but loving measures used for the environs of the entity and the entity's development.
13. In the one before this we find in the land in which the entity now resides, and in that period when there were the changes in the surface, and the peoples gathered in counsel that there might be emissaries sent to the various lands. The entity among those that RULED in that period, and counseled well for the peoples in that land. Gaining for self in the service as to others; feeling, knowing, that the service to others in lending to the Creative Energies, in that it builds for self that bulwark of understanding that may be not surpassed by any mind; and mind being the builder, is able to control, both for the material and spiritual portion of an individual. In the name Ule. In the present there will be seen that travel and peoples, and places, will be necessary for the entity's development as respecting relationships of groups as a whole, and not as individuals.
14. In the abilities of the entity and that to which it may attain in the present experience:
15. In that as seen, and through the various experiences, there will come that period when the home and the
2908-1 Page 4
surrounding of same will mean the most - broken or destroyed, adrift for the entity, until there may be gained that of the concept as is innate in the entity's VARIED experiences. Keep the self attuned to those of the inner consciousness, for the entity may make for self that connection through the mental abilities of self an attunement of home that may gain much through that called the psychic, or the subconscious or superconscious forces, in nature and man. Ready for questions.
16. (Q) Is her present school the right one? (A) Very good, though other surroundings and other environs where there is more consideration shown for the abilities OF the entity would prove much change and much improvement.
17. (Q) Where would you advise? (A) This should be studied rather in conjunction with the temperament, and with that NECESSARY for the development OF the entity's abilities.
18. (Q) What are her abilities? (A) This, as has been described - in that direction of gaining an insight into that as of accumulative forces as respecting home, home environment, home economics for home active forces on the peoples - home and abroad.
19. (Q) Is she physically strong? (A) Beware of those conditions as may arise in the physical forces during the eighteenth year. These will have to do with the RESPIRATORY system, and will occur during the months of February and March. Then there should be the travel in the warmer climes.
20. (Q) How can she be made to concentrate and is she sincere and straight forward? (A) Sincere and straight forward. Concentration for the body, mind, for the entity, is NOT that of study - study - study; but rather of the ability to open self's mind to let those of attuned conditions, to which the entity seeks, flow IN - for, as given, psychic forces manifest themselves through the entity's experience. In gaining, then, the ability for the concentration, necessary only that, that be trained, or COUNSELED and trained, to the entity, for gaining attunement through being in accord with the universal forces, or entering into the SILENCE for DEFINITE periods, and at DEFINITE times, on DEFINITE studies or DEFINITE subjects, and the entity will GAIN much through these experiences; more than MANY that insist on such trainings might gain.
21. (Q) Who could help her in New York on this work or development? (A) Best done in the home!
22. (Q) What are her numbers and lucky days?
2908-1 Page 5
(A) All days are lucky that are MADE lucky! Lucky means that met! Don't call it luck! but that of, what measure is meted - THAT is measured back. That as has been BUILDED in the entity is six. That of the days, is of Friday - for others call it unlucky and the ENTITY makes fun of it! We are through. Copy to Mother " " Ass'n office " " Datastician
