Prophets, Predictions, Power and Perception
Rev Kat Carroll
How do we interpret prophecy?
How do leaders interpret risk?
How does culture interpret upheaval?
And how will history remember the prophecies of this era?
In the sections that follow, we will explore individuals who made predictions about this period in history. As with all prophecy, accuracy can only be assessed in hindsight.
Sylvia Browne was born October 19, 1936 – November 20, 2013. She was an American writer and self-proclaimed psychic medium. Her peak period was between 1998 and hear death in 2013. Her career as a psychic began in 1970 and I recall reading her articles in my youth. She was a frequent guest for the Larry King Live show and a regular on the Montel Williams show for 17 years. There was some controversy as she wasn’t always right.
She had been called out numerous times for her incorrect missing child cases. Some called her a fraud” and a “charlatan” over her false, blunt — and sometimes unbelievable.
But when she was proven accurate (after the fact), it made headlines, and in one case, posthumously. In 2020, a prediction from her 2004 book End of Days about a respiratory illness. This reignited public interest in her work during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, from my perspective and experience, it was more likely she was predicting the Swine Flu outbreak of 2010, which would align with her further prediction, that a lung disease would resurface ten years later (2020).
Brown wrote that “2026 would mark a peak in spiritual crisis, a moment when millions of people would wake up feeling as though the meaning had drained out of their lives. A strange heaviness spreading quietly without any obvious source. People would go through their daily routines working, shopping, scrolling, living, but feel as if something essential had gone missing. Not depression in the medical sense, not anxiety from stress, but a global numbness, a collective feeling of being disconnected from purpose.”
While she may not have understood what she was seeing in 2026, on the surface it seems in line with what we’ve been witnessing. There was indeed a split, a breakup of friendships, and in some cases with family. Some relationships fractured over political ideations, the handling of Covid and the vaccinations, religious views, and involvement in wars.
Sylvia Browne stated that this period was humanities greatest test – She predicted spiritual neglect, emotional burnout, and a growing loss of purpose. Technology, she wrote, would make it worse, not because it is evil, but because it distracts the soul long enough that people forget to listen to their own inner voice.
At a time when AI is exploding across America, her prediction seems quite accurate. And we’ve already seen the problem of giving up our own ability research and write to a machine that has no soul – no way to deeply interconnect with humanity… Only to mimic emotional responses, and too often, making mistakes.
‘To err is human, to forgive divine’. – Alexander Pope (1688-1744)
Rudolph Steiner (1861–1925) In a 1917 lecture, Steiner spoke metaphorically about the spiritual dangers of materialism, warning that forces aligned with what he called “the spirits of darkness” might inspire humanity to develop medical interventions that suppress spiritual inclinations.
He described a hypothetical future where vaccines could be used to “make people immune to foolish inclinations connected with spiritual life“. That sounds quite similar to the warnings of Sylvia Browne, and also concerns that have surfaced about vaccinations.
FunVax is a term that appears in various conspiracy theories claiming it refers to a U.S. military or globalist program aimed at suppressing the so-called “God gene” (VMAT2)—a gene linked in some scientific studies to spiritual and mystical experiences. According to these theories, the VMAT2 gene contributes to self-transcendence and religious belief, and FunVax, short for “Fundamentalist Vaccine,” was allegedly designed to suppress or eliminate this gene’s expression, particularly in religious populations.
Regardless of belief, most of us can agree that much of the past decade has tested our resilience, relationships, and our sense of meaning. In that regard, Browne and Steiner appear to have been correct.
Jeane Dixon (January 5, 1904 – January 25, 1997) was a prominent American psychic and astrologer who gained national attention for her predictions and her alleged advisory role to several U.S. presidents.
In the May 13, 1956 issue of Parade magazine, Dixon wrote that the 1960 presidential election would be “dominated by labor and won by a Democrat” who would then “be assassinated or die in office, though not necessarily in his first term.” Following the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, this statement drew widespread attention. However, she also made numerous incorrect predictions, including forecasting that Richard Nixon would win the 1960 election.
On June 5, 1968, while at the Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles to deliver a speech, Dixon reportedly paused in the kitchen area and stated, “This is the place where Robert Kennedy will be shot. I can see him being carried out with blood on his face.” Later that evening, Robert F. Kennedy was assassinated at that location.
In her 1971 book The Call to Glory, Dixon predicted an apocalyptic “war of Armageddon” occurring around the year 2020. Whether interpreted literally or symbolically, the global upheaval beginning in 2020 led many to revisit her words.
In Christian eschatology, Armageddon refers to the final battle between good and evil before the Day of Judgment (Revelation 16:16). More broadly, the term has come to signify any dramatic, world-altering conflict. Often associated with Armageddon is the word Apocalypse. Apocalypse does not originally mean destruction but unveiling — a revealing, uncovering of truth. That process can be quite destabilizing, at least for a time.
In recent years, social media discussions have increasingly framed “the end of the world” not as planetary destruction, but as the end of existing systems of power and control. Others interpret such language as metaphorical — describing upheaval that precedes structural change. In that sense, upheaval does not necessarily end the world — but it can end illusions, institutions, and careers built on unstable ground.
Prophecies don’t have to manifest literally to influence history.
Joan Quigley (April 10, 1927 – October 21, 2014) was an astrologer, best known for her advice to the Reagan White House in the 1980s.
First lady Nancy Reagan was known to regularly consult an astrologer after her husband, President Ronald Reagan, survived an assassination attempt in 1981.
Quigley was described as the administration’s “most closely guarded secret” in a memoir from the president’s chief of staff. Based in San Francisco, Quigley made the modern-day equivalent of more than $10,000 per month to offer input on Ronald’s meetings, flights, speeches and more. Although she had no predictions for this decade, she was considered crucial to Nancy Reagan, who also confided in other psychics and astrologers.
Edgar Cayce (1877–1945), often called the “Sleeping Prophet”, was an American clairvoyant and self-proclaimed faith healer. He gave psychic readings for over 40 years of his adult life, from approximately 1900 until his death in 1945. He provided highly accurate psychic readings and health advice while in trance.
Numerous videos and online sources claim he foresaw Trump’s return to power or a dramatic reckoning in 2026, but fact-checking sources confirm these claims have no textual support in Cayce’s original trance readings. More accurate were Cayce’s broader prophecies for the mid-2020s that focus on what we are experiencing now, a spiritual awakening, societal transformation, and a test of America’s moral foundation.
Cayce described a period of economic instability, environmental upheaval (especially on the U.S. East Coast), and legal turmoil—events that some interpret as relevant to 2025 and 2026. His readings may not apply to Trump by name, but it’s interesting to note that Trumps presidency has been plagued with legal turmoil.
Cayce’s writings emphasize that leaders reflect the collective consciousness of a nation, suggesting that 2026 may symbolize a national reckoning rather than a prediction about one individual. His vision includes a “renewal through faith and inner transformation”, not political victory or collapse.
Cayce may not have foreseen specific events around the president, but he described the turbulence and reckoning of this time – So did others.
Periods of upheaval do not emerge from nowhere. In natural systems, pressure builds along fault lines until it releases as an earthquake and volcanos. In societies, unresolved tensions surface as protest, exposure, reform, or restructuring.
Suppressed corruption eventually becomes scandal; outdated systems strain until they adapt or fracture. Whether described in spiritual language as “energy” or in analytical terms as systemic imbalance, pressure seeks equilibrium. What multiple seers may have sensed was not a single destined event, but the accumulation of strain within a world undergoing rapid technological, political, and moral transformation.
Closing Thoughts
As noted in 2012 and again in 2020, we were not — and are not — witnessing the end of the world, but the end of a system and the release of long-building tension within it. When structures fall, space is created for rebuilding. And if the deeper transformation is one of consciousness, as Cayce and others suggested, then many of us are already walking that path. We are not merely observers of history, but witnesses to a profound shift unfolding in our lifetime.
Do not let the news and views of the day drag you under the current. Take the 5,000‑foot view. When you hear of wars and rumors of wars, do not be alarmed.
– Matthew 24:6 and Mark 13:7
We are co-creating a new world. And after fear is released, “these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.”
— 1 Corinthians 13:13

We do not need a psychic to know that we will get through these turbulent times.
Many parts of the Bible were written by prophets and seers, a long time ago.
