Travelers: Visiting the Sleeping Prophet

While looking up things to do in Hopkinsville, Kentucky I saw the number three listed spot was the gravesite of Edgar Cayce. That lead me to reading about the "sleeping prophet" and taking a quick trip to Riverside Cemetery. The cemetery is a beautiful cemetery with naturally flowing paths and various beautiful large trees. We saw graves dating back to the early 1800s. While some graves were broken or fallen over the cemetery is clearly well cared for unfortunately stones get broken due to age, storms, or other reasons.

Edgar Cayce was born in Hopkinsville on March 18, 1877 to farmers Elizabeth and Leslie Cayce. His abilities first manifested when he was a child. Reportedly he saw his deceased Grandfather as a translucent figure. He also saw the winged image of an angel. He also had an ability to recall to memory entire pages from books after sleeping with his head on them. He is considered by many to be one of the founders of New Age thought. The majority of his fame and success came when he would have visions while sleeping. With little information about a person he would fall asleep and wake with answers to medical concerns or other questions. 

We left  a recorder at Edgar's grave while we explored the cemetery.
