Discover the most shocking secret Edgar Cayce revealed about what happens to your soul while you sleep. Every night, your spirit travels to spiritual dimensions where it participates in healing missions, receives teachings from higher guides, and works on karmic debt repair. In this video we reveal documented cases from the A.R.E. archives about sleep communications, Cayce's techniques for conscious astral travel, and direct teachings from his 14,000+ readings about soul separation during sleep. You'll learn practical techniques to remember your nightly experiences, protect yourself from negative spiritual influences during sleep, and take advantage of these daily opportunities for accelerated spiritual evolution.
Did you know that every single night while your body rests, your soul travels to dimensions you can't even imagine? This revelation documented by Edgar Cayce in over 14,000 psychic readings and confirmed by decades of research at the Association for Research and Enlightenment will completely change your perspective on death, sleep, and reincarnation. If you've ever felt like your dreams were too real or woken up with the sensation of having lived another life, leave in the comments what strange experiences you've had during sleep, because what I'm about to reveal today could explain everything. In the next few minutes, you'll discover three shocking truths. First, the documented case that led Edgar Cayce to reveal the secrets of soul separation during sleep; second, how Cayce's readings from 1923 to 1944 codified these experiences in thousands of documented sessions, and third, a technique that Cayce himself used to consciously access these spiritual planes while sleeping.
When Edgar Cayce began his extraordinary work as the sleeping prophet in Kentucky, one of the first revelations he received while in his famous trance state was about the dual nature of human beings. We are not just this physical body we see in the mirror every morning, we are soul, we are spirit, and we have a subtle body that acts as an intermediary between our consciousness and dense matter. But wait, because what I'm about to tell you about this astral body is going to change everything you thought you knew about death and sleep. During deep sleep, our astral body partially separates from the physical body. It's like we're a balloon tied by a golden cord that never breaks while we're incarnated. This separation isn't random, it's necessary for our spiritual evolution. While our body repairs cells and processes information, our soul travels to spiritual plains to receive teachings, meet with spirit guides, and in many cases, work on missions to help other souls.
Edgar Cayce, the most documented psychic in history with over 14,000 readings transcribed and verified, described hundreds of cases where people experienced these nightly soul journeys. In his readings on dreams and sleep, specifically reading 5,7542, Cayce detailed how incarnated souls visit spiritual realms during sleep to participate in learning and service activities. Here's where things get really interesting, and in 3 minutes, I'm going to tell you about the case that shocked even the most sceptical researchers in America. One of Cayce's most extraordinary revelations came during reading 294,136 where he specifically addressed what happens to the soul during sleep. According to Cayce, during sleep, the soul partially regains its freedom, can communicate with other souls and receive teachings that often manifest as intuitions or inspirations upon waking. This explains why so many people have solved complex problems after sleeping on it, or why some wake up with brilliant ideas that seemed impossible the day before. It's not coincidence, it's the soul working on higher planes while the body rests. But let me tell you something that will give you chills about how this process really works. Edgar Cayce developed the ability to consciously access these separation states during his famous readings. During his psychic sessions, Cayce would enter a self-induced deep sleep where his soul travelled to what he called the akashic records to obtain information about past lives, healings, and predictions. What's fascinating is that his descriptions of these astral journeys were consistently verified by independent researchers and medical professionals. Remember, I promised you the case that shocked the researchers?
Here it is. In 1942, Edgar Cayce gave a reading for a woman named Helen Ellington, who had been experiencing vivid dreams of deceased relatives. During reading 13,618, Cayce's unconscious mind described how Helen's soul was actually visiting her departed family members in what he called “borderland realms” during her sleep. The incredible part was that Helen's sister, who was dying in a hospital in another state, later confirmed that she had seen Helen visit her in dreams on the exact dates and times described in Cayce's reading, even though the sisters hadn't spoken in months. But this is just the beginning, because what I'm about to reveal about reincarnation and these astral travels, will change your understanding of divine justice forever. During these nightly separations, many souls take the opportunity to visit places and people from previous lives. It's not spiritual nostalgia; it's part of the karmic healing process. According to Cayce's readings, some souls need to seek forgiveness, others need to forgive, and many work actively to repair damage caused in previous incarnations.
Dr. Gina Cerminara, who extensively studied Cayce's work and wrote “Many Mansions”, explained in her research how these sleep encounters could be fundamental to healing psychological traumas that seem to have no apparent cause. People suffering from unexplained phobias or those who feel immediate affinities with certain places or people might be reliving memories of these nightly astral encounters. Wait, because what's coming next about spiritual obsessions during sleep is something everyone should know. Not all separations during sleep are harmonious. According to Cayce's readings, less evolved souls can take advantage of these moments of vulnerability to exert negative influences. This is why some people experience recurring nightmares, sleep paralysis, or wake up feeling more tired than when they went to bed. Edgar Cayce in reading 5D754 to1 explained how prayer and moral elevation act as protective shields during these separations. An evolved soul attracts superior spiritual companions while lower thoughts can magnetize less developed entities. Here's where a practical technique comes in that will change your nights forever and I'll teach it to you in exactly 2 minutes.
Cayce documented the case of a man named David Kahn who suffered constant night terrors. During reading 137125, Cayce revealed that Kahn was being influenced during sleep by the spirit of a business partner he had wronged in a previous life. Only after Kahn made amends through meditation and sending loving thoughts to this entity did the nightmares completely cease. This case, documented in the AR archives in Virginia Beach, demonstrates how conflicts from past lives extend into the spiritual realm. The protection technique is surprisingly simple but powerful. Before sleeping, according to Cayce's readings and the experiences documented by the AR, we should elevate our thoughts through sincere prayer, asking for protection from our spirit guides and mentally programming the type of experiences we want to have during separation. Cayce used a similar technique before each reading session, stating his intention to be helpful and to only access information that could assist others. This mental programming acts as a spiritual magnet, attracting only superior influences during the separation state. But there's something deeper about these astral travels that directly connects to the law of cause and effect, and this will explain why some people seem to have luck while others face constant obstacles.
During sleep, many souls actively work on repairing their karmic debts. They visit spirits they hurt in previous lives, participate in spiritual charity work, or receive teachings that prepare them for future challenges. This is the true night-time school of the soul, where learning continues even when physical consciousness rests. Dr. Harmon Bro, who personally worked with Edgar Cayce and documented his methods, explained how many creative insights, innovative solutions, and brilliant intuitions, are actually fragmented memories of teachings received during these nightly journeys. It's not the brain creating, it's the soul remembering. Here comes the part that will really impact your understanding of death and what happens after. According to the spirits that communicated through Cayce's readings, the transition called death is simply the definitive continuation of what we already experience every night during sleep. The difference is that in death, the silver cord that connects the astral body to the physical body finally breaks, completely freeing the spirit. This is why many newly deceased spirits initially don't realize they've died. They continue experiencing the same freedom of movement and consciousness they had during nightly separations, but now without the need to return to the physical body. In reading 57564, Cayce described in detail how deceased spirits often visit their living family members during the latter's sleep, creating emotional encounters that manifest as vivid or prophetic dreams. But wait, because what I'm about to reveal about preparations for reincarnation will completely change your perspective on life's difficulties. During these nightly astral travels, souls preparing to reincarnate often visit the families where they'll be born, meet the spirits who will be their parents, siblings, or life companions. It's not cosmic coincidence, its careful spiritual planning, supervised by evolved spiritual mentors.
Edgar Cayce, in readings 57532 through 57536, received detailed revelations about how souls choose their reincarnation challenges. Often during sleep in the current life, we visit these planning sessions where we review our progress and adjust our commitments for the next incarnation. This explains why some people feel immediate affinities with certain places, cultures or activities. It's not just personal preference; these are soul memories of commitments made on spiritual planes during these nightly encounters. Cayce in his past life readings, frequently described how natural talents and irresistible vocations were the result of specific preparations made in the intervals between incarnations, many of which were planned during the nightly separations of previous lives.
Now, let me tell you about the most shocking case Cayce documented about communication during sleep. A case that was investigated and confirmed by sceptical journalists. In 1934, Edgar Cayce gave reading to her 94192 for a young woman whose fiancé had died in a car accident. During the reading, Cayce described how the deceased man's soul had been visiting his fiancé during her sleep in the nights following his death to comfort her and explain his transition. The remarkable part was that the woman had documented in her diary, vivid dreams of her fiancé on the exact dates mentioned in Cayce's reading. Dreams where he appeared peaceful and told her he was safe in a beautiful place of learning. This case, documented in Thomas Sugrue's biography “There is a river” demonstrates how communication between dimensions occurs naturally during separation states for both the living and the deceased. But here's the revelation that will change your nightly routine forever. You can develop consciousness of these astral travels. The technique taught through Cayce's readings and successfully practiced by thousands of ARE members, involves three fundamental steps. First, daily mental and moral purification, because only elevated souls can consciously access higher plains. Second, pre-sleep programming with specific intentions for learning and service. Third, developing the ability to remember through a dream journal and morning meditation.
Dr. Henry Reed, who conducted extensive research on Cayce's dream work at Princeton University, documented cases of people who, following these principles, began remembering participation in healing work during sleep, study sessions in spiritual realms, and encounters with deceased mentors who provided guidance for physical life challenges. We're not talking about fantasy or auto suggestion; we're talking about recovering a natural capacity of the spirit that was temporarily dormant due to the needs of incarnation. Here's something that will explain why some people wake up with brilliant solutions while others never experience this. The quality of our nightly separations is directly related to our level of spiritual evolution and our intentions. A selfish materialistic soul or one charged with lower vibrations remains tied to the denser layers of the astral plane where less evolved souls and conflict situations predominate. Conversely, souls dedicated to the common good, spiritual study, and service to others, naturally and automatically elevate to more subtle regions where they encounter spiritual masters, astral libraries, and opportunities to participate in spiritual assistance missions. Cayce documented multiple accounts in his readings of people who participated during their incarnations in nightly work, helping earthbound souls, teaching confused spirits and assisting recently deceased individuals. This work performed during sleep separation represented true extensions of their charitable and spiritual activities during waking hours.
But wait, because what I'm about to reveal about spiritual realms and their relationship to our dreams will explain experiences you may have lived but never understood. In readings 57543 and 900348, Edgar Cayce described the existence of entire spiritual cities dedicated to the learning and evolution of souls. These realms aren't metaphors, they’re realities of the astral plane where millions of souls live, study, and work on their evolutionary progress. During our nightly separations, we frequently visit these realms to participate in courses, seminars, and service activities. Many people wake with fragmented memories of having been in beautiful places with impossible architecture, participating in educational activities, or helping others. These aren't ordinary dreams, they’re memories of real experiences on spiritual planes. Cayce described similar experiences in his readings, reporting nightly visits to what he called universities of the soul, where he received information about healing, philosophy, and spiritual evolution that he later channelled in his psychic readings.
Here's the practical technique you can start using tonight to improve the quality of your astral experiences. Before sleeping, after your usual prayer, specifically visualize the type of experience you want to have. If you seek emotional healing, ask to be taken to realms specialized in spiritual therapy. If you need guidance for an important decision, request meetings with your spiritual mentors. If you want to contribute to the common good, offer yourself to participate in work helping souls in need. The visualization should be accompanied by sincere and selfless intention. Higher planes don't respond to merely intellectual curiosity or selfish desires, but open generously to souls who genuinely seek to evolve and serve. Hugh Lynn Cayce, Edgar's son, who directed the ARE for decades, explained that this pre-sleep programming acts like radio tuning, directing our spiritual vibration to frequencies that correspond to our highest intentions.
Now, let me tell you something that will completely change your understanding of why some people seem to have easier lives while others face constant obstacles. During nightly separations, many souls actively work on resolving karmic conflicts. They visit spirits they hurt in previous lives to ask forgiveness, find victims of their past mistakes to repair damage, or participate in situations where they can demonstrate they've learned lessons from painful experiences. This nightly work of karmic repair can dramatically accelerate our spiritual evolution and significantly improve the conditions of our physical life. Problems that might need multiple incarnations to resolve can be solved in years or even months through this conscious astral work. Edgar Cayce, in his readings on the law of cause and effect, explained how sincere repentance and active repair can modify the consequences of our past mistakes. Nightly separations provide unique opportunities for this direct repair with the souls involved. But here comes the most shocking revelation about how you can use this knowledge to transform not just your current life, but your future spiritual destiny. Every night you have the opportunity to accelerate your spiritual evolution in ways that would be impossible during physical waking alone. While your body repairs cells and processes memories, your soul can be participating in cosmic universities, healing traumas from past lives, developing psychic abilities, and accumulating spiritual merits through selfless service.
The ARE archives contain the documented case of a woman named Gladys Davis, Cayce's longtime secretary, who for over 20 years consciously participated in nightly healing work in spiritual realms. This astral work not only extraordinarily developed her psychic abilities but provided her with knowledge about spiritual psychology and healing techniques that she later applied with great success in her earthly activities. The key is understanding that we're not passive victims of our destiny; we're active co-creators of our evolution and nightly separations represent daily opportunities for accelerated progress that most people waste through ignorance. Edgar Cayce used this understanding to develop extraordinary abilities for healing and clairvoyance. Before each reading session, he programmed his astral separation to access specific information in the akashic records where the entire history of the universe and every soul is stored. Here's the advanced technique that can completely transform your relationship with sleep and accelerate your spiritual evolution in extraordinary ways.
Begin by keeping a detailed dream journal. Don't just note what you remember, but also the emotions, sensations, and insights that accompany your nightly experiences. Patterns will begin to emerge that reveal your recurring astral activities. Second, develop a nightly preparation ritual that includes meditation, prayer, and specific programming of intentions. Visualize places of light where you want to be, spiritual people with whom you want to learn, and types of service you want to perform. Third, practice vibration raising techniques during the day; charity, forgiveness, spiritual study, and constant prayer, elevate your vibrational pattern, allowing access to more subtle planes during nightly separations. Finally, cultivate gratitude for every nightly experience, even those you don't consciously remember. Your soul is working, learning, and evolving every night, regardless of your physical memory.
What you've just discovered represents only a small fraction of the spiritual mysteries documented by Edgar Cayce and revealed through decades of research at the Association for Research and Enlightenment. Every night that passes without consciously taking advantage of these evolution opportunities is a lost opportunity for accelerated spiritual progress. Your soul already travels, already learns, already works during sleep. The difference lies in developing consciousness of these activities and intentionally directing them toward your maximum spiritual growth and service to others. Sleep will never again be simply physical rest, it will be your nightly university, your spiritual evolution laboratory, and your daily opportunity to consciously participate in the great work of universal progress that connects all souls on their journey toward perfection.
