Edgar Cayce Reading on Atlanteans in Yucatan

Here’s an interesting reading, number 823-1, in which Cayce’s trance source says that:

“With the periods arising when there was the last of the destructions (for the entity sojourned in the Poseidian land, and about that temple there, in the spirit influences of the material activities, for some six thousand years — if counted as time now), the entity journeyed with those people for the Yucatan land, or the establishing of the temple there in which the entity aided.” (823-1)

OK, what is Cayce saying here? That an entity resided in a place in Atlantis called Poseidia for six thousand years? Six thousand years! The entity was alive for six thousand years! But, it appears the entity was a spirit influencing material activities. OK, that can make sense. The reason the entity can live for six thousand years in a certain place is because the entity was in spirit form, not material form. And, it means that as recent as the last destructions, entities existed in spiritual form influencing the material.

But then, what’s this? “The entity journeyed with those people for the Yucatan land . . .” So, even though the entity was a spirit, it journeyed with others? It journeyed in spirit form? Does that mean that the Atlanteans who came to Yucatan around the last destruction of Atlantis, came in spirit not material form? What do you think?

Edgar Cayce Reading re: Mayan Sun Temple

Here’s an excerpt from an interesting reading numbered 2073-2. I found this while doing research for my upcoming speaking event in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. There’s more information on my speaker web site at: http://www.CaroleChapman.com.

The reading was given on April 12th, 1940 for a 39-year-old housewife with a Roman Catholic background.

“Before that the entity was in the land now known as or called the Poseidian land, or Atlantean land, during those periods in which it was breaking up, and when the children of the Law of One (to which the entity was enjoined) journeyed from the land into portions of what is now the Yucatan land.

“The entity then was a Princess in the Temple of the Sun, or the Temple of Light; though others have interpreted it as the Sun.” (2073-2)

I found this interesting because, when visiting Yucatan earlier this year, we came upon a Temple of the Sun. On one of the stairs leading up the pyramid, we found carved in the stone a symbol of what looked like a sun with light swirling around it.

Now I wonder if this could have been the temple of this reading especially since the symbol could have also illustrated light.

Edgar Cayce: Altars Influence of People from Mu

In psychic reading 5750-1 Edgar Cayce says that “the altars before the doors of the varied temple activities,” resulted from an influence of the people from Mu or Lemuria.

When visiting Coba in the northern part of the Yucatan Peninsula, we found round stone altars in front of stelae or tall stone columns covered in Mayan hieroglyphics.

Were these altars, which were likely created during the Classic Period of the ancient Maya between about AD 300 to 900, the result of a Lemurian influence that started over 10,000 years earlier?

Maya Future: Their Children

One of our guides, during our 2008 visit to Yucatan, told us that it is very important to the Maya to build up their population. During the “Caste Wars” in which they fought against amalgamation into Mexico, they lost about half of their population. Today, big families are the hope for the future.

Year 2012 Mayan Precession of the Equinoxes

Today I’m thinking about the Precession of the Equinoxes since the full cycle of the Mayan Long Count Calendar correlates with the 25,756 years it takes the earth’s axis to turn one full cycle.

As I understand it, the Precession of the Equinoxes can be compared to a spinning top that is not spinning straight up but at a slight angle.

One spin of the earth creates one day and takes 24 hours. One long circle of the spinning earth around the sun is one year or about 365 1/4 days.

If the earth’s axis of rotation was straight up and down, there would be no seasons.

Because the earth spins at an angle to its yearly rotation around the sun, we have seasons. Very simply, during the part of the year the top half of the earth is pointed toward the sun, we have summer. During the part of the year we are on the other side of the sun and are pointing away from the sun, we experience winter.

If the earth’s axis of rotation was not slowly (25, 756 years) describing a circle, there would be no Precession of the Equinoxes.

How does the Precession of the Equinoxes affect us? Over the thousands of years, the north pole will no longer point toward Polaris.

Did the ancient Maya know about the Precession of the Equinoxes?

Mayan Texts Burned in 1552

In 1552, the Bishop Diego de Landa thought he was doing the world a favor when he burned most of the “books” of the Maya. I say “books” because they consisted of painstakingly painted picture-letters called hieroglyphics. The books were made of fig tree material. And, although they are called books, they were more like a map that folds out accordion-style.

Bishop de Landa burned almost all the hieroglyphic records of the Maya’s history and religion as well as destroying many “idols,” inscribed stelae, and altar stones.

I assume Bishop de Landa was in the throes of Inquisition fever since the Spanish Inquisition was established in 1478 and was not officially abolished until 1823.

However, he did regret his actions and wrote all he could remember of the Mayan texts in: Relacion de las Cosas de Yucatan.

He did the dastardly deed in Mani, a town in the Mexican state of Yucatan, southwest of Chichen Itza. When visiting Yucatan in January 2008, I drove through Mani. Today, it is a peaceful hamlet surrounded by orange orchards. You would never know it was once the scene of such a tragedy.

Only 3 Existing Texts in Mayan Hieroglyphics

There are only 3 books known to the Western World that are written in ancient Mayan hieroglyphics . They have been carried away from the Yucatan where the Maya live by explorers. They are:

Codex Dresdensis which is in Dresden, Germany
Codex Peresianus which is in Paris, France
Codex Tro-Cortesianus which is in Madrid, Spain

According to Frank Waters in Mexico Mystique, they do not contain any historical information about the ancient Maya but only divinatory almanacs, eclipse tables, tables of the movement of the planet Venus, and religious material.
