jlk – Predicting the future is one of the most fascinating and challenging activities for humans. Who wouldn’t want to know what will happen tomorrow, next week, or even next year?
Will we find true love, win the lottery, or be struck by a meteor? Will the world be peaceful, plagued by disasters, or overrun by zombies? Will we live on Mars, underwater, or in a simulation?
Unfortunately, predicting the future is not as easy as flipping tarot cards, reading palm lines, or following horoscopes.
Although many claim to foresee the future using science, intuition, or supernatural powers, few can prove the accuracy of their predictions. In fact, most predictions ever made turn out to be wrong, amusing, or ridiculous.
However, there are also some individuals who have successfully made highly accurate predictions, down to astonishing details.
These predictions are not only based on coincidence, speculation, or forced interpretations but also have strong evidence and reasoning.
Who are they? How can they see the future? And what are their most impressive predictions? Let’s explore the following reviews.
Nostradamus: The Legendary Seer
One of the most famous names in the world of prophecy is Nostradamus, a French seer and physician from the 16th century.
He is known for his book “Les Prophéties,” which contains a collection of prophecies believed by some to have remarkable accuracy. This book has been translated into various languages and studied by many interpreters, fans, and critics.
Nostradamus wrote his prophecies in the form of four-line poems called quatrains, using vague, metaphorical, and symbolic language. He also used anagrams, chronograms, and historical references to conceal the true meanings of his prophecies. This makes his prophecies difficult to understand and often open to various interpretations.
Nevertheless, many of his prophecies have been interpreted as accurate. Prophecies such as the rise of Adolf Hitler, World War II, the September 11 terrorist attacks, the French Revolution, and the atomic bomb.
Many also believe that Nostradamus seemed to have predicted the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020.
One of his most famous prophecies is as follows:
From the depths of Western Europe, A young child will be born to poor people, He who with his tongue will shock the world, His fame will pass the Roman bridge.
This prophecy is considered to refer to Adolf Hitler, who was born in Austria (Western Europe) to a poor family and became the Nazi leader who caused World War II with his provocative speeches.
The passing of his fame over the Roman bridge could be interpreted as Hitler’s invasion of Italy, the center of the ancient Roman Empire.
Baba Vanga: The Blind Mystic
Baba Vanga was a Bulgarian mystic and clairvoyant born in 1911. She lost her sight at the age of 12 due to a storm that caused her blindness.
Her talent for clairvoyance emerged at the age of 16 when she began to predict the fate of people who came to her for help.
Baba Vanga is known for almost 80 percent of her predictions turning out to be accurate, such as her predictions about the death of the King of Bulgaria in 1918 and the bombing of the WTC on 9/11.
She also predicted other significant events, such as the Cold War, the collapse of the Soviet Union, the 2004 tsunami in Asia, and Brexit in 2016.
One of her most shocking predictions is as follows:
Horror, horror! The brothers of America will fall after being attacked by iron birds. Wolves will howl in the bushes, and innocent blood will flow.
This prediction is considered to refer to the 9/11 terrorist attacks, where hijacked planes crashed into buildings in New York and Washington.
Iron birds could be interpreted as planes, wolves as terrorists, and bushes as Bush, the last name of the US president at the time.
Evangeline Adams: The Pioneer Astrologer
Evangeline Adams was an American astrologer and writer born in 1868. She developed a keen interest in spiritualism and Eastern astrology and began her fortune-telling practice in New York, which was highly prohibited at the time.
She managed to avoid punishment by proving her abilities in court and became a popular and respected astrologer.
Evangeline Adams successfully predicted many significant events, both on a personal and global scale.
She predicted the deaths of her own wife and child, the death of US President William McKinley, and the death of Queen Victoria. She also predicted the US economic crisis in 1929, known as the Great Depression.
One of her most impressive predictions is as follows:
I see a period of chaos and darkness coming in 1929. It will affect the whole world, but especially the United States.
There will be panic in the stock market, bankruptcies in the industry, unemployment among workers, and poverty among the people.
This will last for several years until there is a major change in government and policy.
This prediction accurately describes the economic and social conditions in the US in the late 1920s and early 1930s, caused by the stock market crash in October 1929.
These conditions only began to improve after President Franklin D. Roosevelt took office in 1933 and launched the New Deal program for economic recovery.
Alan Leo: The Father of Modern Astrology
Alan Leo was a British astrologer and writer born in 1860. He is often regarded as the “Father of Modern Astrology” for his role in reviving the science in Europe in the early 20th century.
He also played a role in simplifying astrology and making it more understandable to the general public.
Alan Leo was the founder of an organization called the “Astrological Lodge of London,” which still exists today.
He wrote many books and articles on astrology, which became references for many modern astrologers. He also had many famous clients, such as Mahatma Gandhi, George Bernard Shaw, and H. G. Wells.
One of his most interesting predictions is as follows:
I see a period of great change coming in 1939. It will affect the whole world, but especially Europe.
There will be a war involving many countries, and there will be much violence, destruction, and death. This will last for several years until there is a major change in government and policy.
This prediction accurately describes the political and military conditions in the world in the late 1930s and early 1940s, caused by the outbreak of World War II in September 1939.
These conditions only began to improve after the end of the war in 1945, followed by the formation of the United Nations and major changes in the world political landscape.
Conclusion
Predicting the future is difficult and complex, but some people have succeeded in doing so with astonishing accuracy.
Although the methods and tools they use vary, they all have one thing in common: a belief that the future can be seen and understood.
However, we must always remember that predictions are only estimates, not certainties. The future is always changing and uncertain, and we have the freedom and responsibility to shape it according to our desires and hopes.
So, don’t let predictions determine your life, but use them as a guide and inspiration to achieve a better future.
And remember, as Albert Einstein said: “I never think of the future. It comes soon enough.”
So let’s enjoy today and strive to make a better future without worrying too much about what may or may not happen.
That’s it.
