To Jane,
For a man of many words, this time words fail me.
It’s simple really.
Your love, your unflinching belief in me, makes it all possible.
Author’s Note
Like many counselors who write about their work, I have chosen to share some stories from workshop participants and individual clients from across the country. I have also included some personal information from my own life. Specific names and details have been altered to protect certain individual’s identities. I am, first and foremost, a licensed professional counselor; confidentiality and honoring the trust of my clients is critical to my work. However, the reader can rest assured that as incredible as these naratives may seem, I have not inflated the content of these events. The central focus and heart of all the stories told herein are true.
Who Was Edgar Cayce?
Throughout this book, you will occasionally see quotes that are attributed to Edgar Cayce. Each quote is followed by a series of numbers, which indicate the “reading” that the quote was pulled from. I wanted to take a moment to explain who Edgar Cayce is and how the reading numbers work.
Edgar Cayce (1877-1945) has been called “the sleeping prophet,” “the father of holistic medicine,” “the miracle man of Virginia Beach,” and “the most-documented psychic of all time.” For forty-three years of his adult life, he had the ability to put himself into some kind of self-induced sleep state by lying down on a couch, closing his eyes, and folding his hands over his stomach. This state of relaxation and meditation enabled him to place his mind in contact with all time and space and gave him the ability to respond to any question he was asked. His responses came to be called “readings” and contained insights so valuable that even to this day Edgar Cayce’s work is known throughout the world. Hundreds of books have explored his amazing psychic gift, and the entire range of Cayce material is accessed by tens of thousands of people each and every day.
During Cayce’s life, the Edgar Cayce readings were all numbered to provide confidentiality. So in the case of 294-1, for example, the first set of numbers (“294”) refers to the individual or group for whom the reading was given. The second set of numbers (“1”) refers to the number in the series from which the reading is taken. Therefore, 294-1 identifies the reading as the first one given to the individual assigned #294.
Although the vast majority of the Cayce material deals with health and every manner of illness, countless topics were explored by Cayce’s psychic talent: dreams, philosophy, intuition, business advice, the Bible, education, childrearing, ancient civilizations, reincarnation, personal spirituality, improving human relationships, finding your mission in life, and much more.
