After the summit earlier this week between President Xi and President Putin in Beijing, I thought it would be interesting to visit the predictions made about Russia and China by Edgar Cayce, an American clairvoyant, nearly a century ago.
Clairvoyant is a special kind of psychic who specifically receives information through visual images, flashes of sight, visions, or dreams. The layman’s term for people with such abilities is “prophet”.
Cayce’s name first came up in a documentary I watched about the Great Pyramid and the Great Sphinx of Giza. He made some amazing revelations about Ancient Egypt which turned out to be true by later archeologists.
Out of curiosity, I did some digging and read about Edgar Cayce. It was fascinating.
Edgar Cayce (March 18, 1877 – January 3, 1945) was born in Kentucky and died in Virginia. He was known as the “Sleeping Prophet” and the father of holistic medicine during his lifetime.
While in a self-induced, trance-like sleep state, Cayce delivered over 14,000 documented readings covering health diagnoses, reincarnation, ancient civilizations, as well as prophecies about the world.
Despite his unorthodox psychic work, he remained a devout, lifelong Christian and Sunday school teacher. Today, his legacy is preserved by the Association for Research and Enlightenment (A.R.E.) in Virginia Beach.
Cayce delivered his predictions and readings while in an induced sleep or trance-state, earning him the famous nickname “The Sleeping Prophet”.
He made detailed descriptions of Atlantis and Lemuria, claiming Atlantis was a technologically advanced society destroyed 12,000 years ago. More on this later.
Cayce foretold numerous future historical events, scientific discoveries, and even climate changes, including the independence of India from British rule, the return of Jews to the Middle East, and the outbreak of World War 2.
In February 1925 and again in March 1929 (six months before the stock market crush), Cayce explicitly warned of a “great disturbance in financial circles,” advising his followers to pull their money out of the stock market.
In 1935, Cayce predicted a massive global conflict where “Austrians, Germans, and later the Japanese” would join forces. This accurately named the Axis powers five years before the formal signing of the Tripartite Pact in 1940.
Cayce spoke extensively about a secretive, mystical Jewish sect called the Essenes and predicted their historical records would be uncovered.
Two years after his death, in 1947, the Dead Sea Scrolls were discovered in the Qumran Caves, east of Jerusalem, by a Bedouin shepherd, validating his detailed descriptions of the sect.
In a 1927 reading, Cayce stated that the day would come when an accurate medical diagnosis could be made from a single drop of blood. At the time, this sounded like science fiction, but today we know such basic medical science as hematology and laboratory blood panels.
Cayce predicted a massive restructuring and convergence of global communications technologies. Decades later, internet and smartphone have become an integral part of modern life.
Cayce even foresaw major cyclical changes in global ocean temperatures and weather patterns, effectively describing what meteorologists later identified as the El Niño and La Niña climate phenomena.
In the late 1920s and 1930s, Cayce predicted that a shifting of the Earth’s magnetic poles would begin around the year 2000.
According to data released by NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, a measurable shift in the Earth’s gravitational field and magnetic core alignment did indeed become apparent in 1998, moving the poles closer together.
Cayce predicted two sitting US presidents would die in the office in the 20th century, which turned out true with the death of FDR in 1945 and the assassination of JFK in 1963.
On January 1, 1945, Cayce told those around him that he would be buried in four days. He suffered a stroke and died two days later, on January 3, with his funeral taking place exactly as he foresaw.
Cayce’s readings on the Middle East
Cayce often described the Middle East (specifically the lands surrounding Israel, Egypt, and Syria) as a spiritual epicenter of the world.
He warned that global peace or conflict would always mirror the spiritual state of this specific region.
In his readings, the physical strife in the Middle East was a reflection of the internal, spiritual conflict of humanity – specifically the battle between greed (the Belial mindset) and unity (the Law of One mindset).
He predicted that true global peace would only manifest when the peoples of these lands recognized their shared spiritual origins, moving away from racial, religious, or purely material control.
In his 700 readings on Atlantis, Cayce described the fall of Atlantis as the result of a war between the Sons of Belial and the Children of the Law of One.
In the Hebrew Bible (Old Testament), Belial (בְּלִיַּעַל) means “without worth,” “lawless,” or “good-for-nothing.”
The phrase “Sons of Belial” is used multiple times throughout the Old Testament to describe Israelites who turned away from God’s law.
In 1 Samuel 2:12, the Israelite High Priest Eli’s own sons are explicitly called “sons of Belial” because they abused their religious authority, stole sacrifices, and acted wickedly.
In Deuteronomy 13, God warns that if “Sons of Belial” arise from among Israel to lead citizens astray into idolatry, those cities must be destroyed. Biblically, it refers to a corrupt mindset within the covenant people of Israel.
Was Cayce predicting the fate of Israel and the wars in the Middle East through his readings on Atlantis?
Cayce’s predictions about Russia and China
Edgar Cayce never physically visited China or Russia. He spent his entire life living and working within the United States, primarily traveling between Kentucky, Alabama, Ohio, Texas, and Virginia.
However, China and Russia feature very prominently in his famous trance-state prophecies.
While his physical travels were entirely domestic, his followers believe his clairvoyant “astral” or mental readings allowed him to perceive the global destinies of these distant nations.
The Russia Prophecy
In the 1930s and 1940s, Cayce predicted that Russia would eventually shed communism and become a beacon of freedom.
In a reading delivered in 1944—at the height of World War II and Joseph Stalin’s oppressive regime—Cayce made a highly counter-intuitive statement about the Soviet Union.
He declared that “out of Russia will come the hope of the world.”
Cayce explicitly clarified that this hope would not stem from communism or Bolshevik rule. Instead, he described a future, reborn Russia rooted in true freedom and mutual care, famously stating it would be a form of community where “each man will live for his fellow man.”
He predicted Russia would develop a spiritual foundation based on the pure, practical teachings of Christ—not an organized religion, but a baseline of global brotherhood and collective responsibility.
The China Prophecy
Cayce made highly unexpected claims about China’s spiritual future during a time when the country was deeply fractured by civil conflict.
He predicted that civilization would continue to move westward and that China would eventually become “the cradle of Christianity, as applied in the lives of men”—meaning a place where spiritual principles would be lived out in practical daily actions.
Cayce did not mean China would convert to Western, dogmatic church structures. Rather, he meant the Chinese people would manifest the practical “Christ Consciousness”—living with deep compassion, mercy, and communal harmony.
He noted that China’s historical spiritual “sin” or hurdle was quietude and self-satisfaction (isolationism). He predicted that once the Chinese people overcame this passivity and woke up to their potential, they would progress rapidly.
Cayce tied the destiny of Russia and China into a massive historical cycle:
- The Westward Gravitation: Cayce stated that “the height of civilization moves from the West to the Chinese people.” In his view, global leadership follows a westward trajectory across the planet over millennia – from the Middle East to Europe, from Europe to the Americas, and from the Americas to Asia and China
- The Decline of Materialism: As Western nations battle internal strife and the toxic effects of hyper-materialism (the Belial archetype), the spiritual focus of the world shifts.
Cayce viewed the rise of a free, spiritual Russia and an awakened China as the ultimate counter-balance to global greed.
Together, they are meant to anchor the “Golden Age” of humanity, proving that technological and economic success must be driven by spiritual oneness.
Rather than focusing on military dominance, Cayce predicted that these two nations would undergo profound internal transformations to lead humanity out of materialism and into a new spiritual era.
Edgar Cayce’s predictions tie deeply into global shifts by forecasting a total inversion of 20th-century power dynamics, where the center of spiritual and cultural civilization moves from the West to the East.
