Top 10 Edgar Cayce Predictions


Many people are wondering how the predictions of Edgar Cayce are related to 2012. The Mayan calendar ends on edhar cayce top 10December 21, 2012 and as we near this historic date, many of Cayce's predictions are coming to fruition. Edgar Cayce, also known as the Sleeping Prophet, correctly predicted the stock market crash and Great Depression of 1929, the beginning of World War II, and many Earth Changes of modern times. Here is a list of the most startling and memorable Edgar Cayce predictions:

 1. The greater portion of Europe will be changed in the twinkling of an eye. Japan will eventually go into the sea.Land will appear off the east coast of America.





2. There will be a shifting of the poles so that where there was once a cold climate will become warmer and the semitropical will become the more tropical. 


Moss and ferns and new foliage will grow in places that seem strange to us now. As Cayce said: "The Earthis catching up with Time."

3. There will come a time when the sun will be darkened. This will signify a spiritually-awakening event.

Atlantis will be found4. The city of Atlantis will be found near Bimini. It will be discovered that there are healing powers in the waters off Bimini and quartz crystals will be recognized for their healing properties to uplift, empower, and synchronize many types of energy, such as light and electricity.

5. The records of Atlantis will be open to those that are the spiritual initiates in the knowledge of the One God. A secret chamber will be found and the rising of the Temple will make the records accessible.

When asked, "Can you give in detail what the sealed room contains?" referring to the Atlantean Library, Cayce responded that it has a record of Atlantis from the beginning of those periods when the Spirit took form. The records describe the first destruction and the changes that took place in the land. It is a journal of sorts, a record of the sojourns of the peoples and their varied activities in other lands and a record of the meetings of all the nations and lands. it explains the building of the pyramid of initiation, together with whom, what, and where the opening of the records would come, that are as copies from the sunken Atlantis. Cayce also predicted Atlantis must rise again.

 cayce spiritual phenomenon6. A new field of science will be developed based on a psychic/spiritual phenomenon. A shift in focus and study will occur. The world will give more weight to spiritual phenomena and less weight to the materialized or material phenomena. This new field of spiritual-science will become just as practical and as measurable as any other phase of human experience.

7. A "City of Gold" will be discovered in the Gobi Desert. It will have a temple with elevators; electric cars, and magical elements.


8. New York State's east coast and New York City itself will disappear.

9. America's west coast will be destroyed and there will be widespread destruction in Los Angeles and San Francisco, as well as in many portions of the west coast. Land will appear off the coast of America. The Great Lakes will drain into the Gulf of Mexico through the Mississippi River.

The Great Lakes will drain into the Gulf of Mexico through the Mississippi River.

The Great Lakes will drain into the Gulf of Mexico through the Mississippi River.

Earth changes will occur in the central portion of the United States as well. There will be some safe places in the US. They are; Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, the central and some eastern states, to name a few.

humanity reaches a higher level of spirituality10. Cayce envisioned that a time would come when all individuals would realize their responsibility toward one another; this will be a realization that will change the mass-thought of humanity. Cayce predicted there will be three profound archeological discoveries of a very ancient and important nature that will revolutionize the way we understand human origins. Cayce stated that this will occur when humanity reaches a higher level of spirituality. He predicted a new era of peace and enlightenment will follow the tremendous Earth changes. Cayce foresaw a new era of enlightenment and peace for humanity in the future and a unified field of energy that would someday shift the consciousness field of humanity.

“Dreams are today's answers to tomorrow's questions.” -Edgar Cayce

Geologists find East Coast earthquakes travel farther


Data from the 2011 earthquake centered in Virginia shows East Coast tremors can travel much farther and cause damage over larger areas than previously thought, the U.S. Geological Survey said Tuesday. 
The agency estimated about one-third of the U.S. population could have felt the magnitude 5.8 tremor centered about 50 miles northwest of Richmond, which would mean more people were affected than any earthquake in U.S. history. Scientists also found the quake that caused more than $200 million in damage triggered landslides at distances four times farther and over an area 20 times larger than research from previous quakes has shown. 
“Scientists are confirming with empirical data what more than 50 million people in the eastern U.S. experienced firsthand: this was one powerful earthquake,” USGS Director Marcia McNutt said in a news release about the findings presented at the Geological Society of America conference in Charlotte, N.C. Researchers used landslides to see how far-reaching the shaking from East coast earthquakes could be. 
The unexpected jolt cracked the Washington Monument in spots and toppled delicate masonry high atop the National Cathedral. The shaking was felt from Georgia to New England. According to the findings, the farthest landslide from the quake was 150 miles from the epicenter, a greater distance than any other similar-sized earthquake. Previous similar quakes have resulted in landslides no farther than 36 miles from the epicenter. Additionally, the landslides from the 2011 tremor occurred in an area of about 12,895 square-miles — about the size of the state of Maryland. 
Previous studies indicated an area of about 580 square-miles — about the size of Houston — from an earthquake of similar magnitude. 
“It’s just much more dangerous to have an earthquake at that level back on the East Coast than it would be on the West Coast,” said Edwin Harp, a USGS scientist and co-author of the study. 
“If something big happened, although it’s much less frequent, it would tend to damage a lot more buildings because they’re probably not quite up to the codes that they are in California.” Geologic structure and rock properties on the East Coast allow seismic waves to travel farther without weakening compared with the West Coast, Harp said. He said equations used to predict ground shaking might need to be revised now that scientists know more about the power of East Coast earthquakes. The information also will help with building codes as well as emergency preparedness, the USGS said. 
While West Coast earthquake veterans scoffed at what they viewed as only a moderate temblor, the August 2011 quake changed the way officials along the East Coast viewed emergency preparedness. Emergency response plans that once focused on hurricanes, tornadoes, flooding and snow are being revised to include quakes. -WSJ

Here We Go Again! Up To 40,000 New Yorkers Could Be Forced To Evacuate As NorEaster Storm Brings Freezing Temperatures, Rain And Wind Gusts To 55 MPH To Devastated East Coast


~~~NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg warns thousands of people are in need of shelter including 20,000 in public housing
~~~Superstorm Sandy killed at least 113 people in the US // Almost 2million still have no power as cold weather sets in
~~~Hundreds of thousands of commuters today face tricky journeys into the city as public transport remains patchy
~~~Concerns rising that New York and New Jersey voters won't get to polling stations on tomorrow's Election Day



Up to 40,000 New Yorkers may need to be relocated as the city prepares for freezing temperatures and more rain and wind from a ‘nor'easter’ storm.
It is expected to hit New York and New Jersey with gusts of up to 55mph by Wednesday. The strongest winds are forecast for Long Island, with 40mph more likely for New York City. There is also the chance of more beach erosion, coastal flooding and trees weakened by Superstorm Sandy being felled.
Up to four inches of rain is expected along with snowfall in more inland mountainous areas and a tidal storm surge of up to 5ft is possible, forecasters say.
New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg said tens of thousands of people were in need of shelter, including 20,000 in public housing. Almost 2million people still have no power as cold weather sets in - a week after Sandy wreaked havoc on the East Coast, killing at least 113 in the US.
Hundreds of thousands of commuters today faced tricky journeys into the city as public transport remained patchy. Rail service was reduced and the subway was at 80 per cent of its normal service. Most schools were due to reopen today, but some lacked power and others were being used as shelters.

The challenges were more severe for tens of thousands of people unable to return to their homes and many more living without power or heat, with the next storm hitting by the middle of this week. Hurricane Sandy killed 69 people in the Caribbean before turning north and hitting the US at 80mph.
Concerns are also rising that voters won't get to polling stations on tomorrow’s Election Day. Many voting centres were rendered useless by the record surge of seawater in New York and New Jersey. 
New Jersey will allow people displaced by the storm to vote by email. In New York City, 143,000 voters will be reassigned to different polling sites. Both states are normally easy Democrat wins.
About 1.9million homes and businesses across the US remained in the dark last night as the pressure mounted on power providers to restore electricity to areas hit hardest by the storm. In New York, utilities came under pressure to restore heat and light to 650,000 customers.

More than half were served by the Long Island Power Authority, which was singled out for criticism. Tab Hauser, deputy mayor of the still-dark Village of Flower Hill on Long Island, said that not only has the clean-up been too slow, Long Island Power Authority ‘is doing nothing to prepare for the future’.

He would like to see the utility consider underground lines and metal rather than wood poles. ‘Every year it's a Band-aid,’ he said. ‘This can happen next year and nothing will change.’
Lee Green, 45, a firefighter who owns a Westhampton Beach property management company on Long Island, said there were parts of the coastline ‘where the dunes are just completely wiped out’. 
He added that the fire service had been deluged with dozens of emergency calls around the clock. ‘Wires down, road hazards, car accidents, telephone pole fires, alarms going off,’ he said. ‘The power grid out here is really old and quirky. And when it shorts out, it causes chaos all over town.’
In New Jersey, about a quarter of the state remained without power. For many, that meant they had no heat. After a peak of 8.5million outages across 21 states affected by the massive storm, the rate of restoring power each day has eased as line crews must work on more difficult and isolated outages.

Over the weekend, New Jersey gas stations were besieged by people carrying red gas canisters and miles-long lines of cars, despite a fuel rationing system based on license plate numbers. 
In Montclair, New Jersey, some stations ran out of fuel after pumping gasoline on Saturday for cars with odd-numbered plates. This left few stations with gasoline to serve motorists with even-numbered plates, who waited for hours yesterday.
The New York Harbor energy network was returning to normal yesterday with mainline power restored, but there were growing concerns about heating oil supplies with cold weather forecast.

WHEN COLD ARCTIC CONDITIONS MEET WARMER OCEAN AIR FROM GULF STREAM: WHAT IS A NOR'EASTER STORM?

What to expect: A storm threat index from the Weather Channel for the US
What to expect: A storm threat index from the Weather Channel for the US
The nor'easter is a winter storm conceived by the meeting of cold arctic air with the warmer ocean air from the Gulf Stream.
The storms usually develop from a low-pressure system in the south, typically in the Gulf of Mexico, and are then pushed upward.
They often cause severe flooding along coastlines, erosion, and blizzard conditions - but just as dangerous is the bitter Arctic air that gets dragged along by the weather system.
The storms can come at any time of year, but are mainly seen in winter, where the conflicting wind conditions can quickly spiral into a hurricane.
Nor'easters usually bring massive amounts of precipitation, high winds and large waves - and with a full moon, when tides are at their highest, the storm surge could reach as high as 11ft.
'The total is greater than the sum of the individual parts,' said Louis Uccellini, of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

How big and serious is Sandy and why?

More at: http://thewatchers.adorraeli.com/2012/10/30/how-big-hurricane-sandy/


Sandy is now post-tropical cyclone. Regardless its hurricane status, Sandy, dubbed Frankenstorm, is a massive system that will affect a huge swath of the eastern U.S. It is now evident that it may become the biggest storm of century. The circulation of Sandy could cover each of the 26 states east of the Mississippi River by Tuesday! Winds and clouds from Hurricane Sandy could stretch across the eastern third of the United States, according to weather predictions from the National Hurricane Center (NHC).

Sandy’s main features

Sandy is morphing from a tropical cyclone to an extra-tropical cyclone which tend to be significantly larger than tropical ones. Extra-tropical cyclones are driven by a difference in temperatures over a wide area— cold air to the northwest, warm air to the southeast, which then swirls together. Hurricane Sandy formed as a tropical cyclone, fueled by warm waters and warm  moisty air. Ample warm, moist air in the western Caribbean allowed Sandy to grow into a tropical cyclone and hurricane shortly after.

This time-lapse animation above shows Hurricane Sandy from the vantage point of geostationary orbit—35,800 km (22,300 miles) above the Earth on October 28, 2012. Light from the changing angles of the sun highlight the structure of the clouds. The images were collected by NOAA’s GOES-14 satellite. The “super rapid scan” images—one every minute, reveal details of the storm’s motion.
The video above shows Hurricane Sandy’s development on October 29, recorded from 11:15:00 UTC till 21:21:00 UTC.
Sandy is progressing into an extra-tropical cyclone as it gets farther north, and tapping into the power of the jet stream, which ferries air from west to east over North America. The jet stream, like the storm itself, is powered by this temperature difference between air masses, according to  Chris Davis, a scientist with the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colorado. Sandy is also deriving power from the movement of warm air to the north and cold air to the south, similar in some respects to the Perfect Storm of 1991. What we are seeing now from Sandy is a rare mix of a hurricane and a cold front jet stream. The upper level wind  is merging with the tropical system creating a “monstrous hybrid vortex” – a combination of a hurricane and a nor’easter according to Weather Channel hurricane specialist Bryan Norcross.
Weather experts agree that there has never been a storm like Hurricane Sandy in the history of modern meteorology.

How big is Sandy?

Sandy’s winds cover an area of more than 1,000 miles (1610 km) in diameter. Sandy now has the largest tropical storm-force wind field of any Atlantic tropical cyclone since 1988, topping Olga when it was a subtropical storm in 2001 according to Dr. Jeff Masters of Weather Underground. Olga’s winds extended out 600 miles (965 kilometers).
Let’s see some peak diameters of large hurricanes and their tropical wind extensions. Probably the largest was Isabel in 2003 which grew up to 575 miles (925 km) in diameter. Isabel’s hurricane-force wind field reached a diameter of 230 miles (370 km) before making landfall in September 2003. Hurricane Ike reached 485 miles (780 km) in diameter in 2008 and devastating Katrina peaked with 435 miles (700 km) in diameter in 2005. Last year, Irene’s wind field extended up to 460 miles (740 km) in diameter. Hurricane Sandy is wider and stronger than Hurricane Irene, which caused more than $15 billion in damage in 2011, and could rival the worst East Coast storm on record. Total damage from Hurricane Sandy may well exceed Katrina’s $96 billion. This could be the first $100+ billion storm in U.S. history.

Low pressure record

Sandy reached minimum central pressure of 938 mB. If Sandy reaches 934, she will be one of only 19 Atlantic hurricanes to achieve pressure that low, none of which had that pressure north of the Outer Banks. Northwest Atlantic pressure record is set by Hurricane Gladys in 1975, reaching 939 mB. According to AccuWeather Virginia, Maryland, Delaware and New Jersey would break their all-time pressure records. New York City, Block Island, RI and Nantucket, MA would break their all-time low pressure readings.
“Perfect Storm” of 1991 reached minimum central pressure of  972 mB. Great Blizzard of 1993 reached 960 mB and New England Hurricane, also known as Long Island Express of 1938,  reached 947 mB.

If this all happens as forecasted, and you and your family are stuck in the cold and dark without food and light and communications because you didn’t run to the store and get ready, excuses are going to be spectacularly hard to come by.” – Bryan Norcross, hurricane specialist for The Weather Channel

FORECAST

There will be some far-reaching effects aside from the most destructive impacts of storm surge flooding and high winds in the Northeast closer to the center of circulation. Sandy’s wind field will grow larger as the system begins to interact with a dip in the polar jet stream, deepening low pressure at the surface. It’s expected to change from a tropical storm powered by warm ocean water to something more like a winter storm powered by temperature and pressure differences in the atmosphere. Forecasters say Sandy may actually gain strength slightly as it reaches land, it will remain strong enough once on land to produce strong winds far inland. Wind damage will spread well inland, especially over higher terrain, due to the extremely large size of Sandy. In some areas, sustained winds of 30 to 50 mph could last for more than 24 hours. Gusts may top 80 mph in some locations. Lakeshore flood warnings have been hoisted on parts of the Great Lakes including Chicago.
Cold Arctic air coming south from Canada also is expected to merge with Sandy, which will strengthen the storm further and create winter storm conditions. Sandy will bring cold air and snow as well as wind and rain. Forecasters expect Sandy to meet a mass of very cold air from a winter storm about the time it reaches land. This cold air will be incorporated into the hurricane, which means in some places torrential rains will be followed by temperatures in the 20s. Sandy is expected to produce two feet of snow or even more in parts of West Virginia. So the problems of extreme winter and summer weather will be wrapped into one storm.  The combination of snow and strong winds will damage trees and cause power outages. The heavy, wet nature of the snow could cause some structural damage and roof collapses. The snow will continue for several days wrapping around Sandy’s circulation as it winds down slowly.
Heavy snow and strong winds will cause statewide power outages. Millions of people are expected to lose power at some point during Sandy and many will likely not have power restored for many days. That could be a major concern, especially in terms of heating.

“Frankenstorm” Sandy: Man Made Monster Or An Act Of God?

Is Hurricane Sandy being steered to the East coast of the United States using the weather modification technique known as HAARP? The government has dubbed this storm ‘Frankenstorm’. Sure connotates a ‘man made monster’, doesn’t it? We’ve been reporting all week that HAARP has been nailing us here in the mid-Atlantic region up to New England.

From Yahoo:  Government forecasters say a big storm that they’re calling “Frankenstorm” is likely to blast most of the U.S. East Coast next week.




What they’re not telling you is that this was ‘the plan’, an epic storm that could put things all along the eastern seaboard ‘on hold’ for a while. Listen to the forecast below. The ‘perfect storm’ is approaching. Man made or an act of God? Buckle up! We could be in for a wild ride!
