Dream About cayce edgar

Tony Crisp Interpretation: Born in Hopkinsville, Kentucky on 18 March 1877, died Virginia Beach, January 1945. Cayce was an uned­ucated man who found he could put himself into a sleep state in which he had access to a collective mind or universal con­sciousness. Cayce was a very Christian man and couched his statements in a Biblical manner. In his sleep state, however, he could verbally respond to people’s questions and, using medical terms he did not know consciously, diagnose illness in people, even at a distance; speak foreign languages he had never learnt; get information he had no conscious access to. Because of this he was asked to the White House twice. At one period a hospital was built in which he worked with six doctors, diagnosing from his sleep condition. In this state, when asked how he could get information about the past, about people at a distance, etc., he replied that every person has access to what he called the cosmic mind while they sleep, but few people can bring this contact through to con­scious expression. He also maintained that prolonged working with one’s dreams gradually made conscious this contact with our cosmic life.

For Cayce, humans are cosmic beings.

A life­time was a brief interlude of learning in an eternal pilgrimage through time and space.

The conscious personality we so often raise so high is but a temporary experience assumed by an older larger being, the Individuality, or Self as Jung called it.

The ego dies at death, but the Individuality absorbs its experience. Dreams are the meeting point between this older self and the personality it assumes but briefly.

(Cayce’s biog­raphy is There Is A River by Thomas Sugrue. Cayce dictated 14 million words from his sleep state; a record of these is kept at the Association for Research and Enlightenment, Virginia Beach, Va.)

Tony Crisp Interpretation

horse Pleasurable energy and exuberance, the sort of enthusiasm or feelings of well-being that can “carry” one through the day easily; dynamic sexual drive; the physical energy and life processes that “carry” us around. As such, it is the life processes that carry—or pull —us through growth and aging. Therefore, in old age the unbidden processes that move toward death may be depicted as the horse in a threatening role. The horse depicts human instincts that have been harnessed or socialized for generations, but have perhaps been let slide into nonuse. It is also survival drive, love, all yearning toward service, toward metamorphosis, all that has powerful energy to move us. Black or dark horse: unaccepted passions; threat of death; the unknown or threatening changes. Blindered horse: not allowing oneself to see what is happening around you; anxiety about life. Controlling the horse, or fear of it: trying to control, or fear of, feelings of love and sexuality, of natural drives and emotions that are powerful enough either to motivate us or drag us along unwillingly. Dead horse: serious loss of energy or motivation that could lead to illness or depression; an old and dying set of habits and motivations or way of life. Falling off horse: relating badly to one’s urges and needs. This could result in tension, breakdown, or illness. Grooming a horse: taking care of one’s basic needs, such as food, shelter, sex. Horse and carriage: the natural processes of life that move us through youth to old age; forces that can move us, either from within or as natural events. Horse race: the apparently random events of everyday life, and your relationship with people; everyday competition and where you rate yourself in it; what happens in the race shows how you are relating to opportunity, or how you feel about your accomplishments. The winged horse: shows how you are not limited to sexuality or survival, but can lift into wider activities—i.e., a woman turning her love of her children into social caring. See . Idioms: back the wrong horse; from the horse’s mouth; don’t look a gift horse in the mouth; horse sense; you can lead a horse to water; wild horses; workhorse; horsing about; getting on your high horse; eat like a horse; beating a dead horse. hyena An attitude of living on other people’s vulnerability or weakness; taking advantage of someone or being taken advantage of; underhandedness; messenger or bringer of death; feeling parasitized. jackal Like “dog,” but a wild version; a trickster figure like coyote and fox; a deceiver; being a scavenger, it has sometimes been associated with death, as with crows and vultures; due to being able to see in the dark and the light, the jackal was seen by the Egyptians as a pathfinder in the underworld—i.e., the unconscious—leading the dead to the other world. jaguar Anger; power of assertion and fierceness. kitten A baby; feelings about babyhood or having a baby; caring urges, playfulness; youth. lamb The childlike, dependent, vulnerable part of self; new life, and so perhaps one’s own child or childhood; innocence; Christ, as innocence and purity; the weakness of the lamb has enormous power, and can defeat evil. In ancient societies who bred sheep, the spring lambs were a sign of survival of the often harsh and hungry winter. At last there was food. So the sacrifice of the lamb was linked with the feeling of being given life and redemption. leopard As with any of the big cats, anger, temper; spitefulness, cruelty; courage; passion—even passion of caring for your children; because of the leopard’s spots, which can be seen as eyes, the leopard has represented the Great Watcher—i.e., wider awareness. lion/lioness The power of physical strength, of temper, of emotions or sexuality; love that has become anger through jealousy or pain; leadership; one’s father or fatherhood, or mother if it is a lioness; an image of the father/mother God; watchfulness or guardianship; selfassertion or boasting, because of the power of the lion’s roar. Many children experience recurring dreams of a lion chasing them through their house. This is most likely due to a developing struggle with their natural feelings of anger and aggression. Parents might attempt to quiet or control the child’s temper, or criticize it as “bad,” therefore the child avoids or runs from it. Idioms: brave the lion’s den; lion’s share; head in the lion’s mouth. llama This is simply another animal, so will have the basic associations of less restrained or socialized impulses, emotions, and sexuality. But its special associations might be that in its native country it is a beast of burden. It lives at high altitudes, so might represent hardiness or rarefied life. lynx Keenness of perception—lynx-eyed; vigilance; otherwise, same as other large cats. See leopard above. mole Living a secluded life; attitude of a recluse; shortsightedness; an avoidance of human company; unconscious forces or influence; something going on beneath the surface—this may be something you can’t actually perceive, but suffer the consequences of, as with molehills; an undermining influence. monkey Foolishness; thoughtlessness; being ruled by impulse; one’s instincts; the frivolous surface workings of the mind, or expression of frivolous emotion—or impulsive difficult-to-control urges; greediness and self-centeredness; frivolous; irrational in the sense of being stupid; mimicking or aping other people or the group, thus being a follower; the struggle involved in becoming conscious. But sometimes same as ape. Idioms: make a monkey of; monkey business; monkey with; monkey tricks; monkey’s uncle; monkey on your back. mouse Minor irritations; fears and worries; the mousy or timid part of self; shyness; the activities within us—our house—that go on unconsciously, which might be important though small, or gnaw away at one; the sexual organ that goes in and out of a hole. otter Ability to meet the ever-changing moods and feelings without “drowning”; skill in seeing what is under the surface of everyday life and mind; ancient cultures saw the otter as a clean, holy creature.

He also maintained that prolonged working with one’s dreams gradually made conscious this contact with cosmic life. The information garnered from Cayce’s unconscious in this manner suggested that humans are cosmic beings. A lifetime is a brief interlude of learning in an eternal pilgrimage through time and space. The conscious personality we so often raise so high is but a temporary experience assumed by an older, larger being, the Individuality, or Self, as Jung called it. The ego dies at death, but the Individuality absorbs its experience. Dreams are the meeting point between this older self and the personality it assumes but briefly. The phenomena of Cayce’s life are not unique. Other men and women in the past have exhibited a similar faculty. Cayce was a modern example of the practical possibilities connected with the collective unconscious. Cayce’s biography is There Is a River by Thomas Sugrue, or Seer Out of Season: The Life of Edgar Cayce, by Harmon Bro. Cayce dictated 14 million words from his sleep state.
