Another scary thing that blind psychic Baba Vanga said would happen comes true.
Baba Vanga, who was called the "Nostradamus of the Balkans," said a lot about 2022 before she died, and now another of her predictions has come true.
A blind psychic who was said to have seen 9/11 coming said that there would not be enough water in 2022.
Baba Vanga, who was called the "Nostradamus of the Balkans," said that drought would cause water shortages in big cities.
She said that it would have political effects as people looked for other solutions, as reported by The Mirror.
It comes at a time when people in Portugal and Italy have been told to use less water, and Italy is expected to go through its worst drought since the 1950s.
Vangelia Pandeva Dimitrova, who later became known as Baba Vanga, lived a normal life until she was 12. At that time, she lost her sight and said that God had given her a rare gift that let her see the future.
She died of breast cancer in August 1996, but her followers say that her predictions came true for years after she died.
Baba Vanga's true predictions
Baba Vanga said that the world would end in the year 5079, which is as far as her predictions go.
So far, her followers say that 68 percent of what she says comes true. Here are some of the things she said that turned out to be true.
In 1989, Baba Vanga said: "Horror, horror! When the steel birds attack the American brethren, they will lose. The wolves will howl in a bush, and innocent people's blood will pour out."
Many people have connected this to the terrorist attacks on the Twin Towers in New York City in 2001.
She said that the 44th president of the United States would be black, and when Barack Obama was elected, she was right. She said, though, that he would be the last president of the US. Donald Trump and Joe Biden are the most recent ones.
Baba said that Europe would end in 2017, and some of her followers say that she meant Brexit by that. But the vote happened in June 2016.
She is also said to have known about the end of the Soviet Union, the tsunami of 2004, the Chernobyl disaster, and the death of Princess Diana.
None of Baba Vanga's predictions for the next year, which he makes at the end of each year, were ever written down.
In 1989, Baba Vanga is said to have said, "Horror, horror! When the steel birds attack the American brethren, they will lose. The wolves will howl in a bush, and innocent people's blood will pour out."
Many people think this was about the September 11 terrorist attacks, while others think it was about a prediction that Europe would "cease to exist" in 2017.
Another prediction that turned out to be true was that the 44th President of the United States would be black. That role was filled by Barack Obama.
She did say, though, that he would be the last.
Some people say she also saw Chernobyl and the death of Princess Diana coming.
Synopsis
During her lifetime she also made several predictions about events that were said to take place in the world and the following are some of the most relevant predictions so far. Her followers say she had correctly predicted the 9/11 attacks and Brexit; and that she had also predicted that the 44th US president would be African-American.
Vangeliya Pandeva Gushterova, popularly known as Baba Vanga was a Bulgaria mystic who made a number of predictions in her lifetime, and anyone who's a believer in precognition theories, fortune tellers, and psychics will know who she is.
In the late 1970s and 1980s, she was widely known in the Warsaw Pact Eastern Europe for her alleged clairvoyant and precognitive abilities.
During her lifetime she also made several predictions about events that were said to take place in the world and the following are some of the most relevant predictions so far.
Her followers say she had correctly predicted the 9/11 attacks and Brexit; and that she had also predicted that the 44th US president would be African-American.
She had also apparently predicted that several Asian countries and Australia would be hit with an "intense bout of floods", in 2022, while also predicting that many large cities would be faced with water shortages due to a drought.
The prediction proved right as Australia's East Coast was hit by heavy rainfall on and off over the course of a year, causing major flooding.
Her later visions also included that the Earth's orbit would change in 2023, and that astronauts would manage space travel to Venus by 2028. She also predicted that, by 2046, organ donation and organ transplant technology would become so technologically advanced that people could live for more than 100 years using that technology.
Among her extreme predictions for the future - mentioned in articles in Vice and Sun - is that Europe will become Islamic by 2043. And that the US, by 2066, will create a weapon called 'environmental destructor' to freeze everything in its path..
Many of her predictions seem a little too extreme and outlandish. Some can even question the validity of her prediction because she passed away more than 25 years ago, but her fortune-telling legacy seems to still make headlines every year.
