1. GC: You will give the relation of this entity and the universe, and the 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 of the entity, giving the abilities of the present entity, and to that which it may attain, and how.
2. EC: (In going back over dates EC said: Several important personages born on 16th day of December, 1898 and 1899.) Yes, we have the entity and those relations with universe and universal forces, as are latent and exhibited in the present personality, with those as are urges as obtained from appearances in the earth plane, with the place, and that which retarded or developed in that sphere.
3. In taking the place in the present sphere, we find the entity coming under the influence of Jupiter and of Mercury, with Venus and Uranus, with the aiding influence in Saturn, adverse in Neptune and Mars. Then, we find, with the influence of the zodiacal conditions (coming under those of Aquarius, see?), with this, we find these as personalities as are exhibited in the present earth's plane, irrespective and with will's influence (as is seen has been manifested through that of the urge as is seen in well weighing every subject before accepting or rejecting):
4. One of the analytical turn of mind.
5. One that is orderly in every way and manner; rather pigeon-holing every condition presented to the entity, until determined in the mind as to whether would be accepted or rejected.
6. One, then, of the ennobling influences in the lives of many.
7. One who has, from the earliest period, been a confidant of many.
8. One that can advise, DOES advise, in many ways and manners, and one who will find, in the present year, among
4765-1 Page 2
the highest social prestige of its present earthly experience, one sought by many, in the various ways and manners as pertaining to such matters.
9. One that has the ability of giving much in the way of teaching.
10. One that would have made a wonderful economic teacher, or instructor.
11. One that loves the arts in the GENERAL manner.
12. One that has the ability to apply the use of that placed in its hands, whether of goods or of knowledge, in whatever way and manner that is best for self. Hence, the great trouble the entity finds in self is to prevent becoming over selfish in self. Hence will's force has often been manifested in this direction.
13. One docile in a manner, yet when high temper IS AROUSED - the ability to use same!
14. One who has found that at such times these have proven detrimental and brought many conditions that have wrought in the life many adversities.
15. One that in the appearances finds many various urges that have never found the full expression in the present life, yet some may be gratified and builded upon yet.
16. Then, in appearances, we find:
17. In the one before this in the Court of the King in France, when Richelieu was in real charge. The entity then in favor, both with the King and the people, and was almost worshiped by many of the subjects; yet caused much dissension by the seeming intrigues with courtiers. The entity then gained and lost, and in the urge there is seen in the present that inward feeling of the knowledge of such conditions, with the ability to restrain or use self's condition in the correct way and manner.
18. In the one before this we find in the Grecian periods when the rule was under that of the peoples who returned as the conquerors of the eastern country. Then the entity in that of the assistant to the one in command, as the sister then of Xenophon, and the entity then developed much in the MENTAL way and manner, and the urge as is seen - the knowledge of music, art, and especially of statuary; for the entity then gave much to the peoples in that day. The name then Xenzia, and the entity gave much.
19. In the one before this we find in the days when the chosen people were in the journey to the land that became the land of promise. The entity then that entity born to the cousin to the leader, and in the name Zilda, and was the mother of then Ammon [?] - the people that grew in the plains. Then the entity lost in that period, through the
4765-1 Page 3
self's aggrandizement, and the urge as is seen - in the innate love for truth, integrity and honesty, in every way and manner, with the innate feeling of the higher forces as are manifest in the mysterious manner of the day, the past, and the greater that may be seen through that compliance with those yet unknown laws. The entity feels these should be known.
20. In the one before this we find in the Egyptian rule. Then the entity in the house of the ruler, in the one that assisted in the peoples coming to the knowledge of the laws, as an interpreter and teacher, becoming one then that meant much to many peoples during that period. Then in the name Iosiy (as would be termed in this day), and the entity gained much, and this as the lesson as is seen - how that the urge for teaching, how that the urge for others to seek counsel in this entity.
21. As to that which the entity may attain, and how:
22. As given, there will come in the present YEAR; that is, when Jupiter and Venus are at the square with Mercury, in these coming seasons (which last for the next three years), the highest as will be obtained through the social position, social conditions will be reached.
23. Then, as to that counsel, that advice, that learning - keeping same in keeping with the GIVER of those laws loved; little understood, yet may be sought out and applied to the life of the entity in the present life, and to those whom the entity contacts.
24. We are through for the present.
