Edgar Cayces readings are numbered to provide confidentiality. The first set of numbers refers to the individual or group for whom the reading was given. The second set of numbers refers to the number in the series from which the reading was taken. For example, 254-8 identifies the eighth reading that was given to the subject who was assigned #254. It is important to remember that the readings were given for individuals even though they carry a universality of content. With the physical readings, however, it should be noted that the information is not meant to be used for self-diagnosis or self-treatment. Any medical problems need the supervision and advice of a health care professional.

This book is the culmination of years of research and study, and I am very happy to be working again with Edgar Cayces Association for Research and Enlightenment, the A.R.E. I appreciate their help in bringing this project to fruition.

To Edgar Cayce, whose work has inspired my life.

To Dr. Raymond Moody and Auda Marie, who first introduced me to my friends at the A.R.E.

To Cassie McQuagge, Kevin Todeschi, and John Van Auken, I greatly appreciate your vision and support of this project.

To editor extraordinaire, Mary Warren Pinnell, I owe a debt of gratitude for your insight and expertise.

Special thanks to James and Linda Joy and Priscilla Thompson for letting me work with your stones.

Also to my great friends Sandi, Pat, Paula, Sheniqua, Linnea, Brenda, Cindy, and Tammy. And of course, to my family, Mickey, Gail, and Mark.

I thank you all.

Its hard to believe that the first book I wrote for the A.R.E. Press was published ten years ago in 2005. Time flies, as they say.

For the past several years, I had an inner knowing that someday I would write one more book for the A.R.E. The trouble was that I had no idea what it would be.

The moment that my first book about gemstones, minerals, metals, and more was published, I continued with my research and discovered there were many more aspects of this material to explore. After various visions and dreams concerning the fact that I needed to finish something else regarding the Edgar Cayce material, I still had no specific answers about what to write.

For years, I have had an idea floating around me to write a book called Stones of the Bible. Initially, I wanted to write that book as an answer to critics who believe that the power of gemstones is evil. The reality is that nothing could be further from the truth. Gemstones have played an important part not only in the Bible but also in many other civilizations.

Little did I know for all these years that these two ideas were similar. Back in 2013, I began a lengthy process of revisiting all of my previously published work. I reread every word, contemplating what I had written and asking myself what I might like to expand upon in the future.

When I read the Cayce material again, I realized that this book more than any of the others had profoundly influenced my thinking and inspired me in many other projects through the years. I soon realized that I was not finished exploring this topic. Although my first book has what I consider to be an abundance of information, I knew that there was much more to explore.

So I find myself once again immersed in the work of the worlds greatest psychic. As always, it is my honor to work with the Association for Research and Enlightenment in order to revisit and expand my thoughts from the prior work into this latest compilation. I hope you will enjoy the material.

Life is mysterious. Some circumstances feel like they are meant to be, and while we may have a knowing of when we would prefer for certain things to happen, sometimes our situations unfold in longer periods of time than what we initially imagine. I believe the time is now for this book!

Before we begin our journey together, we need to discuss how and why gem healing works in the first place.

Everything in the universe consists of vibrations, and this idea is highlighted in much of the Cayce material.

Recently after a long period of working non-stop over the holidays, I developed a headache that lasted for three days. It was so severe that I had no choice but to go to bed and rest. When we need rest but refuse to listen to subtle clues, the body will eventually make the decision for us. Such was the case with my headache.

I live in the Dallas area, and we had experienced a very cold period with little sunshine throughout the month of December. When the sun finally came out, so did the pollen and other unwanted pollutants that blew in from all over the place.

On the sunniest and most beautiful day wed seen in quite some time, I found myself indoors and in bed with the covers over my head. It was a challenging time for me, to say the least. For the first part of my confinement, aside from trying to hold still so that my head wouldnt hurt, I noticed that my mind was running a mile a minute.

I had been listening to some classical Christmas music in my car, and unfortunately the entire album played over and over in my mind for a day and a half. Once the music ran its course, other thoughts arose and languished about movies I had watched on the Hallmark Channel. Slowly, those faded away.

By the third day, I started thinking about memories from the deep past. By then, with my headache ever present, I escalated the situation from taking baby aspirin to adding sinus pills, which I absolutely hate to do.

Once my headache finally cleared up, my feet and legs began buzzing. Still completely out of whack, I called a friend to tell her that I was sure I was experiencing a true frequency sickness of some kind.

I was so out of it the first day that it wasnt until the second day before I finally got up and selected some rocks. I chose my favorite citrine for my solar plexus, some amethyst for my eye sockets, a carnelian for my abdomen, and some quartz for the collarbone and neck area.
