Edgar Cayce is the most famous psychic of the 20th century and probably one of the most famous ever. He gave over 14,000 readings while in a trance state. Many of his readings that he gave people were in regards to their personal lives. He gave advice on health, dreams, business and sometimes esoteric topics such as the Akashic Records.

A sample prediction follows:

Cayce also spoke of the origins of humanity and of the lost city of Atlantis. A devout Christian, he also discussed Jesus Christ and was concerned that his abilities may have been satanic in origin. Cayce predicted that the Earth’s axis would shift and other major earth changes.

Cayce has an incredible amount of material to read. He spent his life giving people readings as his way of helping others. He was told during one of his readings not to give more than two readings in a day but he unfortunately did not follow that advice. The last reading he gave was for himself which he was told it was time for him to stop working and rest. He predicted the date of his burial, January 5, 1945 and was correct.

When asked what the coming New Age means to humanity, Edgar Cayce replied: "the full consciousness of the ability to communicate with the Creative Forces and be aware of the relationships to the Creative Forces and the uses of same in material environs. This awareness during the era or age in the Age of Atlantis and Lemuria or Mu brought what? Destruction to man, and his beginning of the needs of the journey up through that of selfishness." (1602-3)

Cayce is informing us that in a previous time cycle, humanity had a level of consciousness and relationship with the Creative Forces that allowed us to live at higher levels of material, mental, and spiritual activity in the Earth and beyond. Unfortunately, we misused this consciousness and the power that came with the close relationship to the Forces. This misuse brought on the destruction of our great cultures and a long, karmic soul journey through the pain and confusion that resulted from our selfishness and self-centered focus on our will without regard for the will of the Creator and others. Now, as the cycles come around again, we are nearing a time when the level of consciousness and relationship with the Creative Forces will allow us once again to regain these powers. How will we use them this time?

Before we despair that humankind is going to misuse these again, let's remember that many, many souls and even the Logos, the Word, have come into materiality and continue to come to help prepare the way for rebirth and resurrection. We overestimate the power of the world and its leaders. The unseen, heavenly forces have greater power and will overcome the world's darkness and selfishness, breaking through with a light that will transform this realm for a thousand years, when all evil and temptation will be bound and a golden age will reign. The biblical book of the Revelation conveys this prophecy: "I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key of the abyss and a great chain in his hand. He seized the dragon, the old serpent, which is the devil and Satan, who deceives the whole inhabited earth, and bound him for a thousand years." (Rev. 20:2)

Of course, souls in the world must help lift humanity to higher levels of understanding, love, and spirituality.

Is 2012 the beginning of the fulfillment of these wonderful prophecies of the Izapa, Maya, Aztecs, Edgar Cayce, and the Revelation? Or, is it just another step on the long journey toward such fulfillment? The answer depends on us. How many of us catch the vision and raise our vibrations and consciousness to contribute to a truly new age of enlightenment will determine what occurs in January 2013.
