2023 Predictions Thread
I'm starting this as a place to post 2023 predictions that will be coming out over the next week.
A lot of them, particularly the ones from C2C, are useless, but I'll still post them just for the record. I particularly dislike this guy John something or other, can't recall his name, whose predictions list is nothing more than a right wing wish list.
Already there is one thread posted here, but I'm thinking to avoid a lot of threads, put them all on one thread. Here's a link to the thread posted already (thanks, SheltieLover!):

Post them when you find them, along with link, of course.
Maybe we can compare them and see if they have predictions in common.
In addition, at the end of the year, we could re-visit the thread and see who is accurate and who's not.

Known as the 'Nostradamus of the Balkans,' Baba Vanga passed away in 1996 at age 85, but more than 25 years later, her reported prophecies continue to stir the imagination. While there is some controversy over what exactly she predicted, as there was no official publication, here are some of the predictions linked to her for the upcoming year of 2023:
A calamitous solar storm will hit Earth on a scale not seen before.
Bioweapons research will lead to the demise of thousands of people.
The orbit of Earth will shift, possibly due to a nuclear disaster or asteroid hit.
Children will begin to be born in the laboratory.
The Bulgarian prophetess (who, according to accounts, went blind after being swept up in a mysterious tornado) reportedly made far-flung predictions that are also fascinating to consider:
Between 2170 and 2256, a Mars colony, stocked with nuclear weapons, will demand independence from Earth.
Between 2262 and 2304, time travel will be discovered and developed.
During the years 4302 and 4674 humans will have achieved immortality, assimilated with aliens, and live scattered throughout the cosmos.
In 5079, the universe will come to an end.

That shows a complete lack of understanding of the nature of the Unverse.
Oh, and she clearly had no comprehension of just how large our planet is, and what it might take to change the orbit. Even the impact of the Mars-sized planet that created our Moon did not alter our orbit.
Overall, her track record leaves a lot to be desired. Some failed predictions:
2011: As a result of the radioactive fallout, neither animals nor vegetation will remain in the Northern Hemisphere. Then Muslims will start a chemical war against the surviving Europeans.
2014: Most people will suffer from ulcers, skin cancer, and other skin diseases as a consequence of chemical warfare.
2016: Europe will be almost deserted.

Recap of 1st 27 min. (have to stop for a bit - will watch the rest later):
Collective messages - King Charles will step aside to allow younger generation to take power. Rocky road ahead for royals.
Ace of Cups prominent - easier year emotionally. (thank goddess! LOL)
Greater sense of normalcy & emotional stability.
Greater focus on scientific discoveries, esp in space re wormholes.
Pope - she sees as quite ill - "major events"
Will see a lot more unity in the world, esp re Egypt & Africa.
"Balance"
She saw fields in Ukraine without soldiers - ruskies will leave Ukr. not necessarily in 1st part of year.
China will open doors to west slowly.
UK - more simplified way of life.
Arms race to continue
N. Korea might be making ammo for ruskies
Will see less and less of pootin - he is less popular than even we know. She predicts he will be taken down or taken away by someone close to him.
US - Fascism steep descent - confuses qpukes.
Stock market unstable 1st quarter.
Chile region - could be large earthquake
China - will be revealed they have been working on very advanced "space weapons" - something launched from satellites.
Will try to share more when I have more time to watch the rest. This is up to 27 min. mark. If someone else is of a mind to do so, please feel free. LOL

Maybe I can take notes or try to find a place to post a link to the segments of the show; I could also copy and paste the summary of the show. C2C is subscription, so I'll have to find some web space to post the programs.

This is the summary posted at C2C web site this morning. I intend to listen today and might add some notes:

Sunday - January 1 2023
In separate hours, four guests shared their predictions for 2023, as well as provided readings for callers. In the first hour, Joseph Jacobs, an internationally known psychic, said that February, September, and November would be the roughest months of the new year with health issues, and losses during those times. COVID will continue in 2023, the environment is still a problem, and Russia and China will remain a concern, he noted. Jacobs anticipates difficulties with the economy for another year and a half, and he does not foresee an end to the Russian-Ukraine conflict within the next 12 months.
Next, astrologer Mark Lerner offered his forecast for the year ahead. In January 2023, because of the stationary position of Mars in the USA's natal chart, he sees an increase in stress for Americans over such things as disrupted communications and travel. Between March 23rd and June 11th, Pluto is entering a new sign-- Aquarius, and this raises concerns over the economy crashing and income inequality, he indicated. Lerner suggested that people pay attention to the dates of February 26th, March 1st, and March 3rd, as these are powerful and positive times for love, money, and healing due to the position of Venus in Aries as related to Jupiter and other bodies. March 14th is a day we could see an increase in psychic sensitivity and visionary abilities, he added.
In the third hour, master spiritual teacher/healer Elizabeth Joyce shared her insights for the new year. In contrast to her prediction of last year that Pres. Biden would resign, she now predicts that he will actually be re-elected in 2024, and serve a second term. Donald Trump, she said, will change his mind in the fall and decide to end his campaign for the presidency. Joyce expressed concerns over food and supply shortages in 2023, and in New England in particular, where she believes residents will be beset with energy problems due to the unavailability of natural gas. On a positive note, she suggested that between mid-March and June is a good time to start a new business or endeavor as no planets are retrograde then. She also foresees technology and medical breakthroughs, with new ways of treatment without surgery, as well as revelations about therapeutic vibrations.
Author and astrologist Joy Yascone rounded out the evening, highlighting optimistic 2023 forecasts for all 12 zodiac signs. For Aries, Jupiter, the planet of blessings and good fortune, will be transiting the first house of self, bringing much luck. For Taurus, the focus is on spiritual matters and wellness, while Geminis see increased social interactions. Cancers may be up for a promotion, whereas Leos will finally experience the ending of a challenging cycle with Saturn in Aquarius. Meanwhile, Virgos will have a promising year in terms of money and income, and Libras will find this an opportune year for weddings and partnerships. For Scorpios, this is a good time to pay attention to health and fitness, and Sagittarians will see an upswing in fun and romance. Capricorns will also have a desirable cycle regarding finances, Aquarians will find writing and communication to be favored, and those born under Pisces will be blessed in their careers and income.

(59,599 posts)I receive emails from Mark Lerner, but I admit I've never taken time to listen to his podcasts.
I'm the rare person who prefers to read a transcript, as opposed to watching a video. 😉 i pick up impressions as I read.
Elizabeth Joyce's namd jumped out at me. Maybe I'll hunt up some of her books.
Ty again!

About the show
Astrologer Mark Lerner wrote "Welcome to Planet Earth," which reached thousands of astrological students and professionals around the globe. In the first half, he discussed what planetary alignments are occurring in 2023, and how they might affect us and the world. Saturn recently entered Pisces (a water sign), and Neptune remains in Pisces, and this is perhaps reflected in California's inundation with rain and snow this year, he suggested. On October 28th, there will be a lunar eclipse this year, which falls on the day of the great 1929 stock market crash, so we should keep an eye out for this date or the day or two before and after, Lerner indicated.
Regarding the Russia-Ukraine conflict, he does not see Vladimir Putin backing down. Zelensky and Biden both have "Venusian" energy and want peace, but just tonight, the Moon is in Sagittarius and is crossing Putin's Mars-- and we saw Russia attack a US drone over the Black Sea, Lerner continued. As he made his show appearance, he said that the Moon and Venus are in a trine or triangular relationship within a fire sign, which has an auspicious or favorable quality. Every day there are astrological opportunities, he added, and next week just after the Spring Equinox, Pluto begins shifting into Aquarius, which kicks off a series of changes, highlighting team efforts and global causes.

I get the email alerts but I never check my email, maybe once a week and by the time I see the announcement, I've missed it. Don't know why I never listen when he's on, I used to listen to a mini thing he used to do, way back in the day, on a local morning show and when I moved I really missed it. I should listen to those.
Thanks for the summary!
