A long, esoteric article with loads of new ideas to explore along with some handy charts for reference. I have no idea how legitimate this is, the article has no footnotes, direct quotes from Cayce, or information about where these ideas were originally recorded. Perhaps that information is available elsewhere on the site and I haven't found it yet.

Edgar Cayce on Astrology

quote:
Reality is multi-dimensional. We are multi-dimensional beings who exist simultaneously in a multi-dimensional reality. Long ago, our bodies evolved from primates. Even longer ago, our minds evolved from the stars. But before the universe was even created, our spirits have always existed as part of the divine in even higher dimensions. At the conscious (physical) level, our bodies are like a miniature replica of the solar system. Our hearts perform the function of the sun - the center of the system. Other organs within our body are also used by our souls to find a means of expression. The planets exert astrological vibrations upon our bodies that influence our personalities and soul patterns. At the subconscious (soul) level, the solar system is our larger body. We are connected to the planets, the stars, spiritual realms and entities. On the superconscious (spirit) level, we are one with the Whole. At this level, we are on a conscious level with all there is - the divine.

We think of the universe in three-dimensional terms of time, space, and motion. We think of space in terms of height, length, and width. We think of time as past, present, and future. We speak of ourselves as having physical, mental, and spiritual life. The world about us can be seen as having mineral, plant, and animal life. The Bible refers to a three-dimensional God as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. According to Cayce, the dimensions of human awareness is: consciousness, subconsciousness, and superconsciousness.

Cayce revealed that our life experience involves more than just the Earth. It involves our entire solar system. Through the principles of astrology, each solar system in the universe is like a "university" - a place for higher learning. Our solar system has nine planets and each planet is a physical representation of a particular afterlife realm (or dimension). Our universe is only one realm out of many afterlife realms.

Our universe (including the Earth) is the third realm in the afterlife hierarchy and represents three-dimensional life. Because Cayce associated each planet as a physical (three-dimensional) representation of a particular afterlife realm, Cayce referred to these afterlife realms using the name of the planet associated with it. For example, when Cayce uses the name Venus, he is referring to the afterlife realm that are associated astrologically with the planet named Venus. When Cayce mentions that souls inhabit Venus, he does not mean that souls live on the surface of the planet Venus, he means that souls inhabit the afterlife realm named Venus which is associated astrologically with the planet Venus.

For example, the planet Earth is a physical representation (three-dimensional) of the third afterlife realm (i.e., our universe). The planet Mercury is a physical representation (three-dimensional) associated with the second afterlife realm, also named Mercury, in the afterlife hierarchy.

The afterlife realms are dimensions which souls can experience when not active in the physical body on Earth. These non-active states include death, deep sleep, or other altered states that free the subconscious from its normal physical constraints.

The planets exert an astrological influence on us. These astrological planetary influences originate from the afterlife realms that our souls have sojourned before our current Earth experience and in between Earth lives. The purpose of these astrological influences is to provide certain life lessons we must learn and for which we are tested on Earth.

Cayce described how we are connected in mind, body and spirit, to various afterlife realms and astrological bodies such as the moon, sun, planets, and stars. In fact, Cayce affirmed that everything is connected together as one. Our solar system is our larger body and our bodies act as a miniature solar system.

While on Earth, we are influenced in strong ways by desires that originate from our bodies. These desires not only affect our bodies but our soul as well and how we deal with these influences can determine our level of spiritual development. Through meditation and prayer, one can unlock the doors to the many dimensions, the many mansions, of God's kingdom. But the door must first be unlocked here on this Earth realm.

Jesus taught that the kingdom of heaven is within us. We seek God and his kingdom by looking within ourselves. Our bodies are temples for the very Spirit of God both as the place where we may meet him and as an instrument of awareness through which we may attune to him.

According to Cayce and the eastern religions, there are seven locations within the body that act as spiritual energy centers (called chakras in the East). It is through these spiritual centers that our soul finds a means of expression.

These are the parts within our body that function like a miniature astrological solar system with our hearts performing the function of the sun - the center of the system.

I love cayce, I`m looking to see if the site is sanctioned by A.R.E.

That`s the Co. that has entitlement and authentic papers of Cayce.

It has a link to A.R.E. homepage but am trying to figure out how neardeath.com and A.R.E. is associated.
To read the authentic material (because I can`t find a connection) go to

If a person is not made spiritually alive during their lifetime, then it will occur in some future lifetime either through bodily resurrection (reincarnation) - or by some form of temporary purgatorial-like state in the afterlife - or both. Another source of NDE testimony helping me in transition from a fundamentalist Christian to a more mystical one is the NDE revelations of Edgar Cayce who ties NDE insights together with the mystical Christianity taught by Jesus.

Thanks Juni!

So far I've only found a few tidbits over there ~

quote:
In 1936, in a life reading for a woman from Canada, Cayce clearly explained astrology’s objective in relation to our own soul experience, “Considering then life, a soul, an entity as a continuous stream of experience—and the activities in the earth's plane as a lesson that is learned by the entity—the experiences through the astrological sojourns become rather as a digesting or an assimilating of that which has been experienced or gained in the lesson.” (Edgar Cayce reading 1230-1)

....

In one of the first readings Cayce gave on the subject of astrology in 1923, he stated: “…but let it be understood here, no action of any planet or phases of the Sun, the Moon or any heavenly bodies surpass the rule of man’s will power, the power given by the Creator of man, in the beginning, when he became a living soul, with the power of choosing for himself.” (Edgar Cayce reading 3744-3) It is within this statement that Cayce presents us with the blueprint of our existence: when we choose to live actively self-aware, we acknowledge our relationship with the Creator, and consequently we approach our potential for the expression of our creativity and will.

“Yet no influence of any nature—astrologically, hereditary or environmental—surpasses the will of the entity, the birthright of each and every soul.” (Reading 2505-1)

Right. People extrapolate from Cayce`s writings and use it on their sites.

His actual readings /work has the reading number and usually, the reading date.
When I don`t see that or footnotes related to the reading, I always check.

I don`t think there is anything wrong with interpts. but always want to check the source.

For nature in its song, as the birds, as the bees, make music to their Creator, contributed to man.
---5265-1 Edgar Cayce

In the harmony of sound, the harmony of color, even the harmony of motion itself, beauty is all akin to that expression of the soul-self in harmony of the mind...

This thread gave me the urge to reread "About My Fathers Business" by Hugh Lynn Cayce.

I just finished it and a nice reminder on what he said about the sun, moon and stars, Astrology

If I can find the reading # online, I will share it.
