527: DEEP DIVE: Edgar Cayce | The Sleeping Prophet's Eerie Predictions

Edgar Cayce—the 'Sleeping Prophet'—discovered his psychic gifts as a child while doing peculiar things like sleeping on his textbooks. When sick, Cayce would perform self-healing while hypnotized.

Cayce fought to maintain virtue. He established a holistic hospital and pioneered integrative therapies still used today. However, his benefactor abandoned him at the onset of the Great Depression. Later, Cayce's visions chilled, predicting events like WWII, JFK's death—and a coming global catastrophe that remakes continents and drowns billions.Was Cayce authentic? There are doubters, yet he brought comfort and progress. His selfless character merits applaud regardless of his powers. The virtues he lived are what humanity needs now.
