Edgar Evans Cayce (March 18, 1877 - January 3, 1945) was a clairvoyant. He channeled answers to questions on subjects such as health or Atlantis, while in a self-induced trance. For this reason he has been called the sleeping prophet. Though Cayce was a devout Christian his teachings were later to become popular in the New Age movement.

Cayce became a celebrity toward the end of his life. The publicity given to his prophecies has overshadowed the larger parts of his work. The vast majority of his readings were given for people who were sick. Theology was also an important topic: Cayce was a lifelong and devout member of the Disciples of Christ. While Cayce considered himself a Christian, many of his teachings demonstrate theosophical influence.

Today there are tens of thousands of Cayce students. Most are located in the United States and Canada, but Edgar Cayce Centers are also found in 25 other countries.

Theosophical themes in Edgar Cayce's work 

Among theosophists it's sometimes said that the occult themes in his work started when he started doing readings with theosophists. Be that as it may, the following terminology and themes were already being explored by theosophists before Edgar Cayce started talking about them:

Akashic records
Though Blavatsky didn't use this precise phrase, she did refer to Akasa (or Akasha) as an astral realm where records were kept. For instance it played a part in rebirth.

Atlantis
An old theme dating back to at least Plato, but also present in H.P. Blavatsky's articles and The Secret Doctrine.

Auras
Popularized by theosophist C.W. Leadbeater.

Karma and reincarnation
Also ideas popularized in the West by theosophists, starting with H.P. Blavatsky and W.Q. Judge.

Auras: An Essay on the Meaning of Colors 

Edgar Cayce shared many personal experiences with auras in this book. He wrote it shortly before he passed on and it therefor contains the wisdom of a lifetime of occult work.

Edgar Cayce on Atlantis 

From the Edgar Cayce Series

Published after Edgar Cayce's death, this book collects quotes from his readings about the subject of Atlantis - and with that topic it delves into the history of mankind, the origin of religion and religious practices and correctly predicts many of the technological developments of the 20th and 21st century.

Most popular I think because of those predictions, made at a time when there was no ordinary way of making them.

I have an Edgar Cayce "Reincarnation" pocket book from when I was highschool. It's been so long, other than the title I can't remember what it was about. I just went to look to see if I could find it. Now I'm going to have to check it out again. :) Great lens.

We Have Lived Before by Edgar Cayce is not a book in print (maybe it was the original title now out of print)
