Long before psychic mediums John Edward or Sylvia Browne, there was a poor Kentucky farm boy named Edgar Cayce whose life-transforming concepts and amazing psychic readings made him the father of holistic medicine and the engine behind what became the New Age movement. It has not been until now, however—when Sidney D. Kirkpatrick, internationally acclaimed New York Times bestselling author of Edgar Cayce: An American Prophet, was given full and unrestricted access to Edgar Cayce’s papers—that the real story of the “sleeping prophet” can be told.

Edgar Cayce could not do what he did alone. He needed someone to put questions to him, and someone to record and transcribe the discourse. He needed someone who genuinely wanted his help. He needed a team, a group of family, friends, and supporters-- just as his readings tell us that we need a group with whom, and by design, we are to share life’s experience—our soul group.

This wisdom with the Edgar Cayce readings is as relevant today-often even more so-as it was when it was first delivered. Sidney shares the wisdom of the Cayce readings with warmth, humor, and insight, including: 

• Fascinating stories, humorous anecdotes, and soul growth guidance

• Exploring Cayce’s soul group—and what you can learn from their experiences, challenges, and triumphs

• Tales from the vault, such as what Cayce told Thomas Edison and Nikola Tesla about the nature of electricity and anti-gravity, and what he said about the role of women in the founding of the Christian church—long before the Dead Sea scrolls were discovered

• One-of-a-kind circumstances under which Cayce’s psychic gift is found to be astonishingly accurate and helpful to the lives he touched

• How we can each identify and work within our own soul groups to bring love, joy, and miracles into our own lives

MORE ABOUT SIDNEY KIRKPATRICK AND EDGAR CAYCE:

The Edgar Cayce story challenges the imagination: A backwoods uneducated Kentucky farm boy becomes the greatest psychic of modern times. In a waking state, he lived a humble existence as a portrait photographer, devoted husband and father, and church deacon. In a trance state, however, he tapped into universal knowledge and could correctly answer almost any question put to him. He diagnosed illness and recommended cures for crippling diseases and intractable medical conditions. He would help make millions for investors on Wall Street and would find oil wells in Texas. He could peer into the distant past and preview the future. He could look into the deepest darkest recesses of people’s souls and then provide enlightenment and encouragement. Even the staunchest of skeptics, including Harry Houdini, became convinced. Nevertheless, Edgar and his family’s lives were filled with hardship and struggle. Yet out of their trials and tribulations would come a body of work that has become a source of inspiration and a powerful force for change in the lives of tens of millions of people around the world. 

Drawing on never-before revealed documents, stories, and photographs from the Cayce vault in Virginia Beach, Kirkpatrick shares insights that Cayce provided. Edgar Cayce could not do what he did alone. Deep in a hypnotic trance, he had no memory of anything that transpired. He needed someone to put questions to him, and someone to record and transcribe the discourse. Most important, he needed someone who genuinely wanted his help. He needed a team, just as the trance readings tell us that all of us need a team or partners with whom, and by design, we are to share life’s experience. Understanding our team’s challenges, triumphs, failures and desires is to understand the higher purpose of our own life’s journey. Join Sidney Kirkpatrick, co-author with his wife, Nancy, of Edgar Cayce, An American Prophetand True Tales from the Edgar Cayce Archives, for insights into how Edgar Cayce touched the lives of those who had readings.
