Baba Vanga's 2025 predictions she got right and the ones that missed the mark
Baba Vanga - known as the Bulgarian Nostradamus - was a blind Bulgarian mystic who many believed possessed prophetic abilities through her visions.Famous for supposedly foreseeing the 9/11 terror attacks, the Covid-19 pandemic and the Ukraine conflict, the seer's history of precise predictions has led many to examine her words for insights into future events. This year the mystic prophesied various disasters and advances awaiting humanity as she anticipated multiple natural catastrophes and even technological developments in science and medicine.As 2025 approaches its end, here's an analysis of the Bulgarian Nostradamus' predictions she seems to have accurately forecast this year, along with some that may have fallen short.Natural disastersFor 2025, the mystic envisaged humanity being struck by countless natural disasters, picturing scenes of chaos and mass displacement around the world. In one prophecy, the clairvoyant described "double fire that will rise from heaven and earth simultaneously" happening in 2025, reports the Mirror. Many theorists have understood the fortune-teller's words as possibly alluding to a sequence of catastrophic earthquakes globally, which have caused devastation in communities across countries including the Philippines (October) and Afghanistan (August and November).Numerous analysts have interpreted her words about "double fire that will rise from heaven and earth simultaneously" as referring to the multiple volcanic eruptions that took place around the world. The year 2025 witnessed several volcano eruptions as Mount Etna (Italy) and Kanlaon (Philippines) all erupted during the course of the year.TechnologyConcerning technological progress, many have decoded the mystic's enigmatic phrase "What is opened cannot be closed" as a prediction about technology's path in 2025. The technological leap that has dominated news coverage this year has been the remarkable progress in Artificial Intelligence with Time magazine even declaring the "Architects of AI" as their "person of the year" in 2025.Certain theorists believe the mystic's forecast could indicate significant developments in artificial intelligence or biotechnology as she also foretold breakthroughs in cancer treatment for 2025 – possibly even a cure.AliensConcerning extraterrestrials, the mystic predicted that in 2025 a UFO would appear as a "new light in the sky" during a major sporting event. This encounter would facilitate humanity's first contact with alien beings – bringing knowledge rather than fear to the world.While extraterrestrial beings haven't descended from the stars to greet humanity, some theorists believe Baba Vanga's prediction holds water. These hopeful theorists suggest that the interstellar visitor 3I/ATLAS, which made its closest approach to Earth on December 19, 2025, could be the "new light in the sky" that Baba Vaga refers to.NASA and other astronomers have concluded that this object is merely a deceased comet. However, many continue to speculate that 3I/ATLAS could be an alien spacecraft.The seer's prophecy specifically stated that a UFO would appear as a "new light in the sky", marking humanity's first encounter with aliens - bringing enlightenment rather than fear to the world.PoliticsIn terms of politics, the mystic predicted that in 2025 "The united hand will be broken into two, and each will go its own way." Some interpret this as a potential reference to divisions within NATO or the European Union, or even a decrease in America's military support for Ukraine's war effort.Several analysts have suggested that this forecast could signify a growing rift between the United States and Europe, as tensions have begun to surface among various western nations. Earlier this month, Trump launched a verbal attack on the continent, stating: "Europe is a different place. If that keeps going the way it's going, in my opinion, many of those countries will not be viable countries any longer."He declared: "Their immigration policy is a disaster." The chasm between America and Europe could endure beyond the Trump presidency, following the release of a National Security Strategy that criticised Europe and warned of "civilisational erasure" across the continent. The document called for "cultivating resistance to Europe's current trajectory within European nations", a position that has been condemned as anti-democratic.The End of EuropeOne catastrophic event predicted by the mystic for 2025 that hasn't yet come to pass is a devastating incident that will signal humanity's downfall. The seer prophesied a disaster that will instigate mankind's ruin will be an unspecified conflict in Europe that will wipe out the continent's population. Some have speculated that this event might refer to the Ukrainian conflict.Join our Dublin Live breaking news service on WhatsApp. Click this link to receive your daily dose of Dublin Live content.We also treat our community members to special offers, promotions, and adverts from us and our partners.
