Which Edgar Cayce readings mention specific years and what do they predict for 2025 and 2026?
Executive summary
A review of contemporary reporting finds multiple modern articles and books that attribute specific forecasts for 2025 and 2026 to Edgar Cayce, but the primary published Cayce readings cited by scholars and the Association for Research and Enlightenment (A.R.E.) do not, in the provided reporting, contain explicit references to the calendar years 2025 or 2026; instead, the claims in secondary sources synthesize Cayce’s themes (geophysical change, discoveries at the Great Pyramid, spiritual shifts) into modern-year predictions [1] [2] [3] [4]. Reported specifics for 2025 (e.g., heightened clairvoyance in December 2025, polar melt leading to flooding) and for 2026 (e.g., a “point of no return,” pyramid-related discoveries around the March 20 equinox, or major political reckonings) appear in recent articles and popular books, not in the primary-reading texts shown in these sources [4] [3] [2] [5].
1. What the advocacy archive (A.R.E.) actually highlights and what it doesn’t
The A.R.E. presents Cayce’s major themes—Hall of Records, geopolitical upheavals, and a coming “fifth root race”—and publishes many reading numbers and excerpts but does not, in the A.R.E. material cited here, tie those readings to specific modern calendar years such as 2025 or 2026; the A.R.E. frames prophecies as epochal and evolutionary rather than as one-off forecasts pegged to modern dates [1].
2. Claims in recent popular books and articles about 2025
Commercial titles and popular reporting explicitly market forecasts for 2025, for example a book promising “Edgar Cayce Prophecies for 2025 and Beyond,” which interprets Cayce’s corpus as pointing toward events in 2025 and advice for preparation, but this is an interpretive work by a modern author rather than a citation of a single Cayce reading that names the year 2025 [2]. Media outlets and aggregator sites have also repeated the idea that 2025 will include environmental and social upheavals derived from Cayce’s broad warnings about pole shifts and melting ice, with some stories giving a specific month—December 2025—as a moment of increased psychic awareness; those claims trace to modern reinterpretations rather than to a clearly dated Cayce transcript presented in these sources [4].
3. Claims in recent popular reporting about 2026
A number of recent articles assert 2026 as a pivotal year in Cayce’s timeline—framing March 20, 2026 (the spring equinox) as a moment tied to planetary alignment and potential access to pyramid “records,” or name-checking 2026 as a “point of no return” for geopolitical or environmental crises; these stories reference Cayce’s pyramid and Sphinx passages and add astrological or contemporary political overlays to date-specific claims, but the reproduced snippets do not show original reading numbers that explicitly specify 2026 [3] [5] [4].
4. Examples of specific Cayce reading references in the reporting
The reporting reproduces or points to particular reading numbers for certain motifs—e.g., reading 3976-26 used to discuss locations associated with future “life line” events and reading 5750-1 cited on the A.R.E. site—yet the excerpts do not tie those reading numbers to the years 2025 or 2026, illustrating how commentators combine reading content with contemporary timelines [1]. Popular outlets instead tend to synthesize Cayce’s imagery (pole shifts, a Hall of Records, social collapse and renewal) into dated predictions without providing a direct primary-reading citation that includes the modern year [3] [4] [6].
5. Assessment and recommended next steps for verification
The materials provided show that claims tying Cayce to the specific years 2025 and 2026 are largely secondary interpretations found in recent books, lifestyle sites, and psychic-promotional outlets rather than clearly documented, date-stamped Cayce readings reproduced in the sources given; to verify whether any original Edgar Cayce reading explicitly names 2025 or 2026 would require searching the A.R.E.’s complete readings archive or verified Cayce compendia for any reading transcripts that include modern calendar dates—an inquiry the present reporting does not complete [1] [2] [3] [4] [5].
