The Association for Research and Enlightenment, Inc. (A.R.E.) is the international headquarters for the work of Edgar Cayce (1877-1945), considered to be the best-documented psychic of the twentieth century. Founded in 1931, the A.R.E. consists of a community of people from all all walks of life and spiritual traditions, who have found meaningful and life-transforming insights from the readings of Edgar Cayce. 2006 was the 75th anniversary of the A.R. E. and was celebrated at many events around the United States.

Although A.R.E. headquarters is located in Virginia Beach, Virginia – where visitors are always welcome – the A.R.E. community is a global network of individuals who offer conferences, educational activities, and fellowship around the world.

Our Area Teams cover all of California and Nevada which is a part of the Western District.
