It seems proclaimed mystic Baba Vanga had some idea of what we may experience in 2026, including scientists growing synthetic organs, economic issues, and a plethora of natural disasters.
Vanga, who lived between 1911 and 1996, was a blind Bulgarian healer who claimed to have foreseen the future.
Believers over the years have credited the soothsayer for prophesying the death of Diana, Princess of Wales, the election of Barack Obama as US President, and the devastating Chernobyl disaster.
Whether or not you believe in Vanga’s ability to tell the future, you may still be interested to hear what she allegedly thought 2026 will bring us.
Contact from another civilisation
It was previously claimed that the seer predicted aliens would make contact with the Earth for the first time during a major 2025 sports event.
Advert
Of course, there’s still time for this to come true; various NFL games are scheduled for Christmas Day and the final days of the years, among other affairs such as the Paddy Power World Darts Championships.
But according to Sky History, an out-of-this-world civilisation has another chance to introduce itself in November 2026.
The prediction comes amid the imminent arrival of the 3I/ATLAS object, which is hurtling towards our planet as we speak.
Natural disasters engulfing the globe
13 tropical storms, including three Category 5 hurricanes, were recorded in 2025. Other natural disasters have occurred, such as the Palisades Wildfires, the Myanmar earthquake, and the Richmond water crisis.
2026 isn’t letting up on the devastation front, according to Vanga.
Expect more earthquakes, violent volcanic eruptions, and extreme weather. Great.
World War III threats
With continuing tensions between Israel and Iran, the raging Ukraine-Russia war, and heavy duties imposed on various countries by the United States, it’s no surprise that Vanga allegedly has conflict on her list for 2026.
A saving grace here is that the seer hasn’t predicted the end of the world until the year 5079... so we have some time!
Artificial intelligence turning point
Vanga allegedly believed that AI would ramp up its domination in 2026, as reported by Sky History.
And according to Goldman Sachs, it may replace up to 300 million jobs in the future.
Careers most at risk of the technology takeover include historians, writers, data scientists, and customer service representatives.
Spending more time in space
While experts have mapped out only about 25 percent of the ocean floor, per World Atlas, a jaw-dropping 95 percent of the universe remains a mystery to space explorers, as per The University of Melbourne.
Space study is expected to come on leaps and bounds in 2026, according to Vanga.
It’s reported that we could start mining energy from Venus in 2028. This means efforts to make the dream a reality are likely to commence next year.
Synthetic organ growth
By 2046, doctors and nurses could be relying on lab-grown organs.
Already, experts have been 3D-printing ears and have successfully transplanted a gene-edited pig kidney, which means growing synthetic organs isn’t too much of a stretch.
2026 is expected to continue the scientific development.
Economic trouble
The UK’s last official recession was in 2020, at the height of the coronavirus pandemic. But according to the sibyl, financial difficulties could be on the horizon once again.
If you’re hoping to save money in 2026, Barclays has some game-changing tips.
These include ‘no spend’ weekends, choosing ‘wonky’ veg at the supermarket, paying your insurance bills upfront, and always checking if cashback is available on purchases.
Cancer blood tests hit the mainstream
Fans of Vanga claim that the mystic has foreseen medical advancement where cancer diagnosis and treatments are concerned.
It’s claimed that in 2026, experts may have an easier time catching hard-to-spot cancers earlier.
Reportedly, scientists may also begin rolling out multi-cancer early-detection (MCED) blood tests.
