Dear Reader,
Well, this is embarrassing. Maybe it can be a learning moment (for me, not you!)
Last Monday, I was close to publishing a post, but I felt like more could be added to it so I set it aside and planned to complete and send it to you on Thursday, April 11th. If you also publish on Substack, you’ll know you can request the platform to email drafts of posts to yourself, and I had multiple test drafts of this post emailed to me.
Then I allowed myself to get distracted with business. Taxes, paperwork, and other work seemed more important than publishing this post to anyone but myself.
By April 11th, I was having one of the most involved weeks I’ve had in a long time. I checked my email and was surprised to see a post was already published—the one you received from me last Thursday entitled ‘Quick Guide to Secrets of Tarot Card Readings’. I’d forgotten that I scheduled this to publish automatically. I didn’t want to publish twice on the same day so I figured I’d publish the one from the 8th over the weekend.
Now we get to the part where I share about what brought on my embarrassment…
Last Week’s Prediction
Part of the impetus for the post that didn’t get published to anyone but me was a recurring vision. I wasn’t going to publish more predictions until closer to May, but the vision was so clear, frequent, and insistent that I decided to publish sooner.
Let me begin by saying that I don’t think this was only a psychic vision, as some of what I saw could be deduced by common sense. The Islamic Republic (by which I mean the theocratic regime in Iran, not to be confused with Iran or the people of Iran) has been clear for decades about its intent to destroy Israel. Its recent proxy wars through Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis have the same genocidal intentions.
A thought that kept coming to mind lately is that if the Islamic Republic of Iran wants to eradicate Israel, why wouldn’t they attack when they have half of the Jews in the world in one place? I admit I hesitated to publish this part in so many words because I would never want to suggest such a thing.
And yet genocide is a stated intention of IRI proxies like Hamas who explicitly include it in their charter, so why wouldn’t it be the same for their father dictatorship of the IRI? It seemed like this is what these proxy wars have been leading up to as they’ve recently escalated. It hasn’t been a secret that the Islamic Republic and their Axis alliances have been hiding behind proxy provocations around the world, and not just in the Middle East.
By last Saturday, news emerged that the Islamic Republic was sending missiles and drones to attack Israel, just as I’d written in my post below. Since I had Substack email the post to me, it is time-stamped as of April 8th. Here’s the prediction based on the card The Fool (and the recurring vision I mentioned):
I’m glad I wrote this before the attack on April 13th because that makes the rest of it less biased. And some of these details may be cause for hope. The part that says, “Moderate countries defending themselves against Iran and Russia will form an unprecedented alliance that someday contributes to a deeper coexistence” and “a bigger enemy farther from the region brings them together for common survival” are notions I wrote before anything about the attack appeared in the news. This makes me believe that the “unprecedented alliance” we witnessed when other countries helped defend Israel from oncoming missiles will contribute “to a deeper coexistence” in the region.
What I missed in the prediction was which countries would be involved. The unprecedented (direct) alliance was with Jordan rather than the countries I listed. However, perhaps this excerpt is predicting that the attack from the Islamic Republic will bring “UAE, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Israel” closer together.
The significant part of this prediction is at the end of the first paragraph: “Expect surprise attacks, especially a big one related to the theocratic Islamic Republic of Iran”. The rest of the predictions I made that day are included in the extended part of this post.
This Week’s Reaction
And now we get to the part about why I’m embarrassed. When I realised I’d missed an opportunity to publish this to all of you before it happened, I didn’t kick myself like I would have done before. I felt relief. And that was new. Somehow, it seemed like a good thing to not be known for this, although I’m not entirely sure why.
Anyway, my embarrassment wasn’t caused by the reason it would seem to be. I didn’t regret missing a chance to prove that another prediction came to pass. Instead, I felt retroactively embarrassed for the countless times I cared to be known for being right. Why did it ever matter? There’s nothing to prove to anyone. And it wouldn’t have changed the outcome.
I’ve addressed in previous posts that setting aside the ego and ulterior motives during readings is more beneficial for the recipient (querent). Yet it also helps to let go of how I am perceived after predictions come to pass. If any part of me cares about being proven right that’s coming from a self-seeking place. Self-seeking could also affect how I share predictions. It could even hold me back from sharing in the first place, which also isn’t helpful.
It would be disingenuous to claim that I don’t wish in a tiny part of my mind that I’d published this recent prediction more widely. Yet my curiosity is about what an interesting experience it might have been, rather than the usual feeling that comes from being proven right. It’s only natural to want that, as accuracy and consistency are expected of readers who make predictions. Yet if it goes too far, self-seeking or even self-righteousness can be addictive. And like an addiction, the drug only offers a short-lived rush.
So maybe I’ve learned something. I will always have more to learn. And whether or not I did, I no longer feel the pressure to prove anything, at least for now. I can only hope that lasts.
It seems from this recent incident that something’s changed for me. I have some theories about why that I may share another time. For now, I’d rather continue with the other contents of this post, which includes the rest of the World News From the Future and U.S. Elections Predictions I made on April 8th.
As for the rest of the post, part of the inspiration was a series of dreams I had earlier this month about the future of the British royal family. I also drew cards after these dreams to answer questions about what’s next. Some of you have enjoyed these predictions and requested more (thank you for your feedback!), so I’ve continued with the series. I also drew cards after these dreams to answer questions about what’s next. Before I begin interpreting those dreams and tarot card readings, I’ve included a preview of headlines from the rest of this post…

World News From the Future
A Global Battle: Update to April 8th Predictions of Islamic Republic Attack on Israel
Radical Islamism, fascism, and Communism are ideologies that have failed before in practise. They’re back for an attempted reprise but will fail again this time. What is happening beyond what we see today is a shift to a different form of capitalism, which retains parts of a capitalist system but adds other components of a new system onto it. However, those components will have to be compatible with democracy. Expect a new era of economics to arise amid the Jupiter-Uranus conjunction in Taurus that begins today for the first time since 1941. Those were the early times of WW II, and we are in the early period of another world war (although one more akin to the ‘30s than ‘40s)…
