Planetary Influences & Sojourns. Edgar Cayce

Hence the inclination as the body is controlled by the Astrological survey at the time of the birth of this body, either (no middle ground for this body) very good or very bad, very religious or very wicked, very rich or always losing, very much in love or hate, very much given to good works or always doing wrong, governed entirely by the will of the body. Will is the educational factor of the body; thence the patience, the persistence, the ever-faithful attention that should be given to the child when it is young.

      Yes, we have the body, [398], and those conditions in the astrological aspects; especially in reference to those adverse influences that appear eminent in the experience of the entity in the near future; as well as that which has been builded by the entity in its sojourns through the spheres of activity where there is such a gathering of influences as to become active in a body-entity.

      In giving that which may be understandable, and that which may be helpful from the material angle at this time, as we find, it would be well that all consider the varying aspects from that considered an astrological influence. As we have given through these channels, astrological influences are effective in the experience of each and every entity. However, when the activities of a soul-entity have been such as to cause or to form the appearance of the entity in a particular sphere of activity, the position of the sojourn of the entity to the earth has the greater influence than just the adverse or benevolent positions of the planet or of a whole solar system upon the entity's activity!

      Is this understood? [Pause] You should answer! [Mrs. Cayce: I don't quite understand.]

      [Mr. Cayce continuing] Then, it is as this: When the activities of an entity, a soul in the earth, have been such that its passage from the earth would become a birth into the realm of matter known as Mars, Venus, Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune, Moon, Mercury, Polaris, or any of these that are effective in the universal influence, you see, the sojourn there and the position of the planets are more effective than the influence brought to bear because of a position in a certain place or portion of the universal forces, see?

      Hence, as we find, these conditions are only as urges; or, as may be termed from some reasons or seasons of thought, the planetary influences from their positions are either benevolent, adverse or inter-between these activities—one drawing upon another; but the entity's sojourn in those environs makes the impulse for the mental activity, rather than the position of these!

      So, the astrological sojourns are rather as intuitional influences felt when in meditation or distress in mind, that brings the harking of a something that may be found through the application of self respecting the knowledge self has concerning the Creative Forces in a material world.

      Reading 518-1

      From the astrological aspects much may be gathered that will be helpful in the entity's experience in the present sojourn. While the astrological aspects make for general tendencies in many entities' experience, the planetary sojourn in the earth's environ deals more with the mental development of an entity than just because the stars, the sun, the moon or any of the zodiacal signs are in the aspects at the hour or period of beginnings in this experience.

      Rather has that which has been builded in the soul of the entity brought about its influence, and so does the entity become influenced according to its activities in relationships to that which has been the understanding or comprehension of the universal laws, as it—the entity—is related to same. For, without knowledge there is not the comprehension; and without understanding it does not become practical in the material development or manifestation of a soul.

      Reading 528-14

      Hence the astrological influences are more to the spiritual or innate urges, that are aroused by the deeper meditating of the mental self.

      In giving that which may be helpful to this entity through such information, it would be well to include something as to how this is obtained; that there may be some credence given, and at least an attempt on the part of the entity to apply and to verify things that may be said and given—which will be as some experiences that have been in the entity's life; and then that as to what the entity and body in the present may do about that it knows of itself and its abilities in the present.

      As each soul enters in the earth, there are purposes other than that which may be arising from desire of those that physically are responsible for such an advent.

      For, the soul seeks from the realm of spirituality to give expression of that it as an entity or soul may do with its experiences in the mental realm, as well as about that it has done in a physical realm.

      Hence the law that is ever present; like attracts like; like begets like. Hence there is the attraction as from the desires of those in the physical calling to the sources of generation in the flesh, to the sources of creation or of spirit in the spiritual realm.

      Hence there is often a real purpose in the soul, as in this soul, seeking a period of expression of self; and finding it in that about the bodies when there is the period of presentation. For, while the physical begins at conception, the spiritual and mental is as the first breath taken into the physical—that becomes then a living soul, with a physical organism for manifestation during the sojourn in that particular experience.

      Then, what influences such a journey, such an advent of the soul from the unseen into materiality? Development of the soul that it may take its place, through the lessons gained in physical experience, in those classes or realms of soul activity in an infinite world—among those that have passed in their activity through the various realms; seeking then (as that which first called every soul and body into experience) that of companionship. Hence we have as much hereditary and environmental forces in soul's experience (or the developed soul to such an experience) as we have in the law of the earth, as to that which is hereditary from the parentage of a body—and the environs of the body, as to what is the trend of thought.

      In coming into an experience such as this entity and soul did on the 27th of June, 1900, in Centerville, Michigan, was this by accident—or was the soul from another realm or plane seeking for expression that it, the soul, might build or renew self in specific directions for that purpose for which it has come into experience or consciousness in materiality?

      Then, it behooves all that there should be as great consideration given as to where the soul came from as to where the soul is going!

      For, as in thine own experiences in the material things, if the composition or nature of wood, stone, or plaster even, is given to the builder (as in self), it is known by the experience as to what it (the material, as the soul) will do in response to certain conditions in its experience as a useful material in a given line. It is known how much exposure it may bear, how much textile strength in its various usages or environs it will meet, and what necessary elements are required as a stimuli in coating, mixing or the like, to aid it to be a better material.

      So the soul in its activity, if it is known from what environ it has received its training—as in mental impulses—or what are the environs through its earthly sojourns, it may be seen or known as to what may be the necessary influences to make for better preparations in the present.

      That the systems in the earth's environ or earth's orbit are places or conditions or spheres of abode for those particular classified environs of a soul, is not only reasonable but a practical thing—if properly considered.
