Atlantis is a mythical lost continent/civilization, first described by Plato around 360 B.C. in his dialogues Timaeus and Critias. According to him:
Atlantis was a powerful and advanced island nation beyond the Pillars of Hercules (modern Strait of Gibraltar), which sank into the ocean in a single day and night of misfortune, around 9,000 years before his time.
Technologically advanced, utopian society
Located on a vast island in the Atlantic Ocean
Destroyed by a natural cataclysm due to moral/spiritual corruption
Intended by Plato as an allegory about the dangers of hubris and the fall of civilizations
Cayce, in trance readings, went way beyond Plato. He described Atlantis as:
Located between Europe, Africa, and the Americas
Peaked around 50,000 to 10,000 B.C.
Destroyed in three stages, the last being around 10,500 B.C.
(Interestingly, that lines up with pre-Ice Age melt and some modern geological anomalies.)
Mastery of:
Crystal technology
Energy fields
Anti-gravity
Genetic manipulation
Had access to the “Firestone” or Tuaoi Stone — a kind of power generator crystal
Split between:
Sons of the Law of One: aligned with divine/spiritual principles
Sons of Belial: self-serving, materialistic, power-hungry
Survivors of Atlantis fled to:
Egypt (influenced the pyramids and mystery schools)
Central/South America (connected to Mayan/Incan cultures)
Europe
Said Ra Ta, a high priest of Atlantis, was a previous incarnation of Cayce himself
Depending on who you ask:
Theory | Location |
---|---|
Plato’s account | Beyond the Pillars of Hercules (Atlantic Ocean) |
Cayce’s readings | Mid-Atlantic, between Europe & the Americas |
Modern fringe theories | Caribbean, Azores, Antarctica, even under the Sahara |
Mainstream archaeology | Atlantis = Allegory, not a real place |
It’s a symbol of a lost golden age
Raises questions about human origins and forgotten knowledge
Feeds into theories about ancient aliens, cataclysms, hollow earth, and earth cycles
Lemuria / Mu – a supposed older civilization in the Pacific
Akashic Records – where the history of Atlantis is preserved
DNA & Soul Memory – some believe Atlanteans are reincarnating now to awaken the “ancient knowledge”
Atlantis isn’t just a sunken island story—it’s become a metaphysical archetype of:
Forgotten wisdom
The rise and fall of civilizations
The balance between spiritual growth and technological power
