Baba Vanga, a blind mystic from Bulgaria, continues to captivate audiences even 27 years after her passing with her supposed ability to predict significant historical events.
Credited with foreseeing events like 9/11, the Covid pandemic, and Princess Diana's death, Baba Vanga has become a revered figure among her loyal followers who still regard her prophecies with great devotion.
According to recent reports from The New York Post, Baba Vanga's followers anticipate a series of catastrophic events set to unfold in the remaining months of 2023.
The most alarming prediction is a major nuclear power plant explosion, resulting in toxic clouds that will envelop Asia. Additionally, Vanga's disciples believe that the Earth will be struck by a devastating solar storm, potentially leading to a cataclysmic shift in the planet's orbit around the sun.
Furthermore, her followers foresee a bioweapons attack carried out by an unnamed superpower, the emergence of a new religion centered on artificial intelligence, and a future where natural pregnancies will cease to exist, with all babies being grown in laboratories and parents having the ability to select their physical traits.
While Baba Vanga's predictions are intriguing, they are also cryptic and challenging to verify, as noted by Sky History. Her reputation as the "Nostradamus of the Balkans" stems from a remarkable life story.
Legend has it that Vanga lost her sight during a dust storm at the age of 12, after which she claimed to possess the gift of prophecy and healing. Visitors, ranging from commoners to influential figures such as tsars, sought her counsel at her residence in the Kozhuh mountains.
Although she was unable to write, those around her diligently documented her words, creating a record of her visions.
Some of Baba Vanga's alleged predictions have gained attention for their accuracy. For example, in 1989 she reportedly prophesied that "American brethren will fall after being attacked by steel birds [...] innocent blood will be gushing," which many have interpreted as a reference to the September 11 attacks.
She also predicted that America would have its first Black president, a prophecy fulfilled by Barack Obama's presidency in 2009. While her claim that Europe would "cease to exist" by 2017 did not manifest in a geographical sense, some have connected it to the Brexit vote that took place in 2016.
Moreover, she foresaw that the 45th president of the United States would face a crisis leading to the downfall of the country, a prediction that some associate with Donald Trump's presidency.
Throughout her life, Baba Vanga underwent scrutiny from Bulgarian and Soviet scientists who analyzed and tested her abilities.
Their conclusion was that she had an impressive success rate of approximately 85% with her predictions, as reported by Sky History. It is even said that she predicted her own death, which occurred on August 11, 1996, when she was 85 years old.
As the rest of 2023 unfolds, many people hope that Baba Vanga's doomsday visions will fall within the 15% margin of error. Regardless of the veracity of her predictions, Baba Vanga's enduring influence and mysterious accuracy have solidified her status as an iconic figure in the realm of prophecy.
