As the world looks toward 2026, Brazilian mystic Athos Salomé—often referred to as the “Living Nostradamus”—has outlined a new set of global predictions. Known for earlier forecasts that some believe aligned with major world events, he now warns that the coming year may bring significant geopolitical, economic, and environmental strain.
Salomé’s outlook begins with Russia, where he expects renewed attention on the Arctic. As ice continues to recede, he suggests that expanded military activity in the region could raise tensions with NATO. He also anticipates political and economic instability in Africa’s Sahel region as extremist groups gain influence.
On the financial front, Salomé predicts that the BRICS+ coalition may push further away from reliance on the U.S. dollar, reshaping global economic relationships. He also believes Russia could increase its military mobilization and strengthen cybersecurity defenses.
Turning to the Middle East, he foresees rising friction between Iran and Israel in mid-2026. He also expects the United States to maintain a strong presence near the Red Sea in response to regional unrest.
Salomé includes natural and technological risks in his forecast as well. He warns of possible solar storms that could disrupt electrical grids, semiconductor shortages affecting Japanese industries, and heightened cybersecurity threats in Europe. He also notes concerns about new health challenges, climate-driven emergencies, and continued strain on global energy supplies.
His predictions even reach into space and the British royal family, suggesting both may experience notable developments in late 2025 and early 2026.
While Salomé’s forecasts gain attention, experts emphasize that such claims should be viewed cautiously and with perspective.
