What do they have in common?

So what do Crazy Horse, St. Bernadette and Edgar Cayce all have in common? Just for fun, let’s take a look….

Interestingly, the lives of Crazy Horse and St. Bernadette were pretty darn co-linear. Crazy Horse was born in either 1840 or 1844 and was assassinated in 1877. St. Bernadette, the young French girl who was visited by the Female Christ in a grotto outside of Lourdes, France was born in 1844 and died in 1879 at the age of 35. Crazy Horse was either 33 or 37 when he died, depending on which historical account one wishes to ascribe to. Their lives were going on at the very same time on the opposite sides of the globe — and they were as opposite as they could be. (Or were they?)

Edgar Cayce was not born until 1877, the same year that Crazy Horse kicked the bucket and two years before St. Bernadette gave up the ghost (to this day her body has not decomposed). Cayce probably had more in common with St. Bernadette than with Crazy Horse. Both were very Christian and both had encounters with the Female Christ. But Crazy Horse’s religion — that of the Lakota — was all based on the Female Christ/White Buffalo Calf Woman. So all three individuals were tied into the Female Christ. That is one thing they all have in common.
