Brazilian mystic Athos Salomé, widely known as the “Living Nostradamus,” has shared a detailed set of predictions he claims will unfold in 2026. At 38, the influencer and self-described seer has long insisted he foresaw major global events, including the Covid-19 outbreak and the death of Queen Elizabeth II. His reputation stems from frequent comparisons to the French astrologer Nostradamus, whose enigmatic verses shaped centuries of speculation.

In recent months, Salomé has issued warnings about a major event he believes will impact the British Royal Family before the year ends, as well as concerns about the future of weight-loss drug users. Now, he has broadened his outlook, delivering an extensive series of global forecasts involving military tensions, unexplained space phenomena, and potential disruptions linked to “fires and power outages.”

He begins by turning attention to Russia and the Arctic. Despite its continued involvement in Ukraine, Moscow is said to be expanding its strategic presence in the far north. Salomé cautions that “the relocation of missile systems to strategic Arctic positions could heighten the chances of direct clashes with NATO,” noting that melting ice in 2026 could open new shipping routes and energy reserves capable of shifting global power dynamics.

He then moves to the Sahel region of Africa, which he predicts will become a major zone of instability. As extremist groups grow stronger in northern Niger, he foresees “indirect confrontations between nations trying to assert influence after Western forces withdraw,” a scenario analysts believe could have widespread consequences for international security.

Salomé also points to significant geopolitical and economic developments involving BRICS+. He states, “In 2026 I anticipate a more decisive BRICS+ bloc. A leak of diplomatic information suggests that Saudi Arabia is proposing a restructuring of the group’s guidelines, seeking to conduct transactions outside the dollar – a move that could significantly impact emerging markets.” The coalition, originally made up of Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa, now includes additional members and aims to strengthen the role of Global South nations in shaping world policy.

Another of his predictions revisits the Middle East. After the short but intense Twelve-Day War between Iran and Israel earlier this year, he suggests tensions may escalate again. “With Iran progressing in its uranium enrichment process and Israel preparing for possible military intervention, I warn that the Middle East region could experience a new period of tension in the second quarter of 2026.” Recent reports from Israeli officials indicate preparations for advanced defense technologies, adding weight to concerns about future conflict.

Salomé further claims that 2026 could be a decisive year shaped by major world leaders, naming Russian President Vladimir Putin as a central figure. “A decree that has not yet been formally enacted could enable Russia to call up approximately 800,000 reservists by March 2026,” he says. “This goes beyond simple military administrative procedures and represents the basis for a more assertive approach to cybersecurity and air defence.”

Turning to the United States, he describes growing tensions in and around the Red Sea. “Because Iranian-backed militias have stepped up their activities, the US has already moved drones and naval assets to the Bab el-Mandeb Strait. In 2026, this maritime route will once again become a central point of global geopolitical attention.”

His economic forecast places Poland among the countries at greatest risk. “Poland will be at significant risk of a financial crisis in 2026,” he warns. “Private discussions with the IMF, a large deficit, and the potential for future strikes all add to the uncertainty.”

Finally, he notes that Japan may face trouble linked to a potential semiconductor shortage, hinting that the country’s technology sector could experience significant strain in the coming year.

Salomé’s predictions, whether viewed with skepticism or curiosity, offer a sweeping set of warnings touching nearly every corner of global affairs, leaving readers to ponder how much of his vision—if any—will come to pass.
