This reading excerpt, taken from ‘life’ reading 2969-2, was given in February 1944 for an 18-year-old female (College Student studying Chiropractic). Miss (2969) was not present for the reading.
The reading first commented on Miss (2969)’s potential and then offered her some sound advice: ‘In giving an interpretation of the records here, these form many patterns. And here is an entity who may make a real success of her experience in the earth or be miserable most of this sojourn.
The entity is one gifted with the ability to be a real leader, yet there are many conditions to be considered.
One whose personality must be directed by the individuality of the entity. Hence the spirituality, the first causes, the principles that would direct or be the impelling influence, must be in the right direction.
And yet the entity is one who seeks the unusual, desires to have experiences of all kinds. It is interested in things that to others might even be morbid. Things that would be very daring - as : going into a submarine or in an aeroplane or through things that others would shudder at.
All of these are well, provided they are used for a purpose and not only as a sham or to impress others.
The entity innately feels rather deeply regarding spiritual things, regarding things that would have to do with the unusual; psychic information, things of psychic nature.
The entity could itself make a real medium, yet it would not be well to undertake such until there has been a great deal of study and experience, and that through spiritual impressions from the influences the entity entertains deep within itself.
The entity then could become either a speaker, a reader, or a writer, if it applied itself in those directions.’
The reading then briefly commented on Miss (2969)’s planetary influences, by saying: ‘The activities, then, are to be - in order to bring the better to the entity - not in conformity to what purely astrological influences would indicate.’
The reading then continued with the following advice to Miss (2969):’ Thus the entity will find within itself warring urges, until it has set itself to analyze its own sincere, deeper wishes within itself.
Do study scripture. Do analyze it. Begin with definite portions, as : Exodus 19 : 5. Then study thoroughly the whole of Exodus 20, then Deuteronomy 30. Then make the pattern of thy life the 23rd Psalm, and then the first ten verses of the first chapter of John. And then the 14th, 15th, 16th, 17th of John. And then the 13th of I Corinthians. These should not merely be learned, but used as patterns; not as a show, but as something to be used in the experience with others to become a little more patient, a little more sincere, with self, a little kinder to those less fortunate, a little more of brotherly love to those who are high-minded, who think and act as if they were the patterns of the world.
For the spirit of the Christ may abide within the entity, and its love then for children, its love for home, will bring harmony, peace, love, happiness within the experience of the entity.
This is not indicating that the entity is to be long-faced or be sad about its choices of activity, but rather be happy, be joyous, be glad! For the Lord will not withhold any good thing from those who love His coming and who prepare for it in the minds and hearts of others.
In those manners, then, may the entity find real success, real happiness, even in a cruel world.
Yet there is much to be gained in this experience for the entity, if the entity, if it will begin with those directions given.’
The reading then examined three prior lifetimes for Miss (2969) - in the US, in the Turkish land, and in the Egyptian land.
The reading then addressed Miss (2969)’s present opportunities: ‘As to the abilities of the entity in the present, that to which it may attain and how :
As indicated, with the proper preparation, no good thing, no good place may be kept from the attainment of the entity.
Then as a writer, as a reader, as an interpreter of verse or song, and in the home, the entity may excel.’
The following two questions were then asked:
‘(Q) What were the past associations with the present mother, what are the urges and how may they be best used in the present? (A) In the Egyptian experiences, when the positions were much reversed. Thus often the questioning as to who shall be boss.
(Q) How may I best prepare myself for this work? (A) As indicated, through the study of the sources from which all knowledge flows.’
In a letter to the A.R.E. in July 1961, Dr (2969) quoted from, and commented on parts of her reading, stating: ‘"There is an entity who may make a real success of her experience in the earth or be miserable most of this sojourn." I feel that I have been very successful, and have been every place that I wished to go, done the things I wanted most to do, and am now very happily married.
"The entity is one who seeks the unusual, desires to have experiences of all kinds." I don't know that I like things just because others are afraid of them, but I have had a variety of experiences in all parts of the world which I attribute more to curiosity than anything else.
"The entity could make a real medium." I have sat several years in development classes and seem to have a natural ability, though I think my gifts may be more used for healing. I met my husband at a seance.
The scripture verses were named, I feel that I have an understanding of, and that they are applicable.
In regard to the past lives named here; Quaker schoolteacher in the Revolutionary period. Teaching is something I rather enjoy, and my father thought that I should take that up as a career. We have some very close Quaker friends and have always felt a kinship to their beliefs.
A Persian harem dancer; I have studied dancing on and off and would gladly forego a meal in order to go dancing. Unfortunately, my husband does not care to dance, but I danced a great deal before I was married, so am content.
A life in Egypt. I have been a keen student of archaeology, and that was one of my purposes for a year's trip to the Middle East and Orient.’
