Edgar Cayce, Lemuria and Una Marcotte
Yesterday, I visited Edgar Cayce’s A.R.E. in Virginia Beach, Virginia, to hear a fascinating lecture by Una Marcotte, an expert on Lemuria.
Whereas, most speakers interested in ancient mysteries focus on Atlantis, ancient Egypt, Yucatan and the ancient Maya – or anyway, I certainly do in my books When We Were Gods and Arrival of the Gods in Egypt – Una emphasizes the ancient civilization that flourished before Atlantis, which was known as Mu. Una explained that the name, “Lemuria” resulted when a 19th century researcher gave the name to a land mass he believed disappeared into the ocean.
I felt absolutely enthralled as she spun her tale, The Ancient Ones of Lemuria, about life forms called the root races, which are different body types used by the soul to interact with the earth. She said that the Lemurians were the 2nd root race and that we humans, a very dense and heavy creature, are the 4th root race. The amazing Lemurians could create companions with thought, a magical people, who Edgar Cayce called thought forms.
Una also showed us maps illustrating where Lemuria or Mu had existed. Most interesting to me, she said that the West Coast of the U.S., including California, had once been a part of Mu which had drifted up against what is now called the Rocky Mountains to create two parallel sets of mountain ranges. Amazingly, the giant Sequoia trees, the largest trees on earth, are surviving Lemurian vegetation.
For her research, Una consulted the psychic readings of Edgar Cayce and Rudolph Steiner plus the research of Churchwood and Cerve. She also referred to my own research, which had surfaced in past life regression. I loved how she put all the information together in an easily understandable manner.
Once a month, the A.R.E. hosts The Forum, a free lecture, co-moderated by Lindy van Burik and Day Schwartz, a daughter/mother team who love to tell jokes to entertain their audience. The Forum is always an enjoyable and informative evening. Next month, November 2008, the speaker will be a psychic medium.
