СКАЧАТЬ him because she had never seen him read a book. When it came time for his wife’s labor, the man took the book with him to the waiting room of the hospital and read it while his wife gave birth. Imagine the couple’s surprise when a life reading for the baby at one month stated that their son had been Brutus:

      One that will need discipline, and even in the early stages the routine as a soldier or those characters of conditions that make for such should be the rule of the life in its formative experience; else the entity may become a wanderer.

      For there is the inclination to see and be a part of so many affairs.

      Hence we will see more and more that of hero worship, even in the early years of the experience …

      The name in that period was Brutus—hence the divisions and yet the longings to be as Caesar in that experience.

      Then, let the entity learn discipline—teach the entity discipline from every angle—but in love, in patience.

      1976-1

      Cayce stated that the child would tend to be materialistic and that he would be strong in body and mind and determined to have his own way in life. Throughout the reading Cayce emphasized that the child needed discipline and guidance or else he would have the tendency to become a “wanderer.” For that reason, when [1976] was older he was encouraged to receive some routine military training.

      Throughout his formative years, the boy was seen as a model child. He did well in school and became president of his high school class as well as a class officer in college. Graduating with honors, he joined the ROTC and spent two years in the navy as a commissioned officer. Eventually he did labor relations work for a public utility company and was successful. Desiring to get ahead faster, he eventually switched careers to life insurance and investment funds, where he did very well.

      By all accounts, [1976] was always interested in civic affairs and had a “natural bent and flair for this type of thing.” Over the years, he headed up PTAs and funded political campaigns; his father predicted that eventually [1976] would run for political office on a national scale.

      No additional reports are on file.

Bulwer-Lytton, Edward George

       1803-1873

       Case 3657

      Edward George Bulwer-Lytton (First Baron Lytton) was a member of the English Parliament and a writer of historical romances, novels, and plays. His works include The Last Days of Pompeii (1834) and Richelieu (1839).

      A fifty-eight-year-old jeweler and optometrist was told that his talent with gems and precious metals could be traced to a life he had lived in Egypt “as a carver of gold, a carver of stones—as of rubies, diamonds, emeralds and those prepared for those in authority and in power.” However, over the years he had become dissatisfied with his occupation and longed to do something else, but he didn’t know what. His discontent and unhappiness had even led to a bout with alcohol, which he had overcome. His reading stated that he had great talents that had gone untapped:

      Here we have an unusual individuality—and he’s certainly missed his calling!

      While there are those tendencies, inclinations, abilities in any scientific or mechanical activities, the greater abilities of the entity might, in this experience have been expended in a constructive manner, as heretofore, as an author. For this was one Bulwer-Lytton!

      3657-1

      He had also acquired an interest in things of a mechanical nature from a lifetime in Greece when he served in the military.

      Mr. [3657] was told that he could produce even greater works than he had as Bulwer-Lytton, if he would simply put his mind to writing. In response to the suggestion, [3657] later wrote, “I have often felt the urge to write stories but it never was a necessity that I try.” According to the files, Mr. [3657] lived to the age of seventy-four and remained active in his business until a few days prior to his death in 1960. There is no record as to whether or not he ever tried his hand at writing.

      Years later, in 1976, his daughter wrote and stated that she had just finished a Bulwer-Lytton novel and was amazed because it “was [just] like listening to Daddy talk!”

Burr, Aaron

       1756-1836

       Case 1235

      Aaron Burr was the third vice-president of the United States (under Thomas Jefferson) and is best known for having killed his political rival, Alexander Hamilton, in a duel. Although he served out his four-year vice-presidency well, afterward his political career was marked by foreign intrigue and failed treason against the United States. His own desire for power proved his undoing. He was acquitted of treason, a capital offense, only because his plots had been thwarted before being committed. After his political ambitions were over, he spent some time in Europe before returning to the United States to practice law until his death. (See also “Hamilton, Alexander.”)

      A thirteen-year-old boy was told that he possessed innate abilities as an orator and a politician that had been developed during lifetimes in Rome and at the founding of the United States:

      For as we find a political career should be that for the greater training, for the greater development, for the greater abilities, for the greater possibilities for the entity in this experience.

      For as the activities have guided, do guide the experiences of others, and as the experiences have been in such an environ, those inclinations will be in such ways and manners as helpful—if the purposes, the ideals of the entity are held in those directions as to make for the correcting of self first, then the aiding in correcting the moral, the economic, the social order for others …

      Before this, then, we find the entity was that one known as Aaron Burr; of which so much is known that little may be added to that—but that those things that brought about those experiences in the affairs of the entity during that sojourn may not be repeated. For these will come as experiences, the urges for repeating of those that questioned the entity, even as then.

      1235-1

      The reading stated that innately [1235] could be quite headstrong. Cayce encouraged the boy’s parents to persuade by reason and logic rather than by power or might, for he would rebel against any forcefulness. Although he had often been associated with those in power in the past, Cayce said his activities are “not well-spoken of in many circles.” His guardians were advised to guide him in the direction of law and political science. Rather than learning political might and the force of power, he was to be guided in learning how politics could be used for creating peace and harmony. He needed to discover how the state could direct individuals in their service toward one another.

      According to the reports, [1235] never did learn law or go to college. Instead, he married early and had several children. He eventually entered the civil service and worked for a naval shipyard. A veteran of World War II, he was buried with full military honors when he died in 1975.
