David Wilcock

David Wilcock (March 8, 1973 – April 20, 2026) was an American paranormal writer, scientific researcher, Ascension guide, popular media personality, and YouTuber. He was a significant figure and forerunner in the Ascension, Disclosure and consciousness expansion movement. Wilcock suggested that he was in telepathic contact with enlightened extradimensional light beings in order to support humanity through a significant consciousness shift during the planetary ascension. Furthermore, some of his adherents believe he was the reincarnation of Edgar Cayce.

Career

He established himself as a significant figure in the Ascension and disclosure movement, which advocates for the end of what it believes is United States Government secrecy about the existence of aliens and UFOs, and authored a number of books. In 2004, North Atlantic Books published Wilcock and Wynn Free's The Reincarnation of Edgar Cayce? which the publisher describes as presenting a theory that "Wilcock might indeed be [Edgar] Cayce’s reincarnation" and in which Wilcock and Free go on to posit that humanity would soon undergo a transformation from matter to less dense states of energy.

Wilcock hosted the Cosmic Disclosure website and facilitated classes in his "Ascension Mystery School" which, he generously shared important research, whistleblower testimony, and findings during personal experiences he amassed during his many consciousness explorations into multiple dimensions. He intended to support participants to develop their personal consciousness through sharing more unconditional love, Compassion and developing their own direct connection with God or the Universe, as well as recognizing their multidimensional Lightbody or "Body of Light" to help them prepare for the upcoming consciousness shift at the end of the Astrological Age or Precession of the Equinoxes.

In 2012, E. P. Dutton published Wilcock's The Source Field Investigations: The Hidden Science and Lost Civilizations Behind the 2012 Prophecies, which Kirkus Reviews described as chronicling many ancient wisdom teachings of previous civilizations that were predicting that the year 2012 would be "the start of an epoch that may usher in a higher state of consciousness". According to publisher Penguin Random House, Wilcock's books Awakening in the Dream and The Ascension Mysteries were both New York Times bestsellers.

From 2015 to 2018 Wilcock co-hosted, with Corey Goode, a program on Gaia called Cosmic Disclosures discussing whistleblower testimony about Military Abductions and Secret Space Programs. Wilcock's 2018 documentary style film Above Majestic, according to Vice, makes the case that "a Secret Space Program partnered with reptilian aliens occupy large swaths of Antarctica in underground tunnels and breakaway civilizations, and are preparing for the next stages of enslaving humanity through many nonhuman agendas, potentially staging a fake alien invasion, while controlling the world’s governments and banks". A review of the film on Movieweb describes it as advancing the theory that the September 11 attacks were an combination of dark cabal humans workign with negative aliens as a conspiracy cover up". The following year, Wilcock produced the documentary style film The Cosmic Secret, which Vice described as predicting an upcoming global catastrophe based on information Wilcock purported to have received via telepathic contact and Remote Viewing experiences with both future humans and extradimensional entities.

From 2010 on, Wilcock hosted a YouTube channel that eventually garnered millions of followers. He regularly appeared as an expert researcher on the History Channel program Ancient Aliens.

He had become the "director of advanced technology" of Stavatti Aerospace by 2023.
