Sylvia Browne's Future Prophecies

by Sylvia Browne

It's going to be an interesting century, that's for sure, full of soaring highs and crushing lows, brilliant advances and inevitable steps backward, turbulent chaos and almost unprecedented peace as the countdown to the end of days proceeds.

Before I begin a breakdown of what lies ahead, I do want to offer a word of caution to our present and future presidential candidates. Sometime between 2008 and 2020, I see a sitting president dying in office of a heart attack. The vice president who assumes the presidency will stun the world by announcing his intention to declare war on North Korea in light of his accurate belief that they actually are in possession of weapons of mass destruction. His efforts to rally congressional and international support for this declaration of war will be resoundingly unsuccessful and the source of enormous alarm, and he'll be assassinated before his term ends.

On a more positive note, before the end of 2010, to the chagrin of countless pharmaceutical companies, the common cold will be a thing of the past. I don't know the specifics, but the cure will involve heat (duh). There's a small self-contained cubicle that will become a common fixture in most clinics and doctors' offices. At the first hint of a cold, patients will step into this cubicle for five or six minutes, where a combination of its precisely elevated temperature, an antibiotic vapor, and their own body heat will destroy the rhinitis germ that causes most colds, many allergies, and a variety of asthma-related illnesses. Speaking not just as a psychic but also as a victim of my share of colds every year, let me just assure medical and scientific researchers and pharmaceutical companies around the world that there's a massive fortune to be made for whoever invents, perfects, and secures the patent on this cubicle.

And now, with those two special alerts out of the way, here are the broad strokes of the upcoming thirty-two years as I see them now. But never underestimate our power to influence the future, for better or worse, so don't even think about taking these forecasts as an excuse to sit back, put your feet up, and stop trying. For most of us, this is our last visit to Earth. Let's not set ourselves up for an eternity of wishing we'd made more of a difference while we were here.

2010 - 2050

The twenty-first century is going to usher in the arrival of an extraordinary flood of highly advanced spirits from The Other Side. This is worth mentioning because of the great strides we have to look forward to in the areas of childbirth and infant care. The timing is no coincidence. We're preparing for those highly advanced spirits by seeing to it that we give them the best start on earth we can possibly offer.

By 2010, we're going to see some brilliant leaps forward in the field of diagnosing deficiencies and illnesses in the fetus, thanks to vastly improved ultrasound and amniocentesis. Fetal surgeries will be so precise that they'll be able to correct those deficiencies and illnesses as well as many birth defects and genetic challenges. There will also be fetal injections to guarantee nutritional balances and healthy immune systems before our future children are even born.

Inspired by our ancestors' routine practice of accepting the help of gravity during childbirth, 2010 will also see the reemergence of birthing chambers, for the benefit of both mothers and newborns. These birthing chambers will involve a pulley system, allowing the mother to give birth while suspended from strong padding overhanging straps. The baby drops down, as gravity always intended, into soft sterile pillows that are waiting in the hands of the doctors, nurses, and/or midwives in attendance. The walls of the small circular birthing chambers will act as screens on which calming imagery of the mother's choosing will be projected. Gentle music and the sound of quiet waves will accompany the imagery. Lights will be dimmed, and aromatherapy will be put to subtle use. The experience will be more reverent than clinical, a far less jarring transition for the infant from The Other Side to Earth and a far more considerate event for the mother.

Immediately after the child is born, a routine series of blood tests will reveal any protein and chemical imbalances that will by then be known to cause a whole array of psychological disorders, so that everything from depression to potential schizophrenia will be addressed at birth. Cells will also be painlessly harvested from inside the infant's cheek, to serve two purposes. The first, over the objections of the ACLU, will be to register the child's DNA in what will eventually be an international databank of every person on Earth. The benefits to the immediate tracking of lost, missing, abandoned, and exploited children as well as an equally quick resolution of paternity issues and crime solving will far outweigh any privacy concerns. DNA "fingerprints" will be discreetly imprinted on identification, school and hospital records, Social Security cards, drivers' licenses, credit cards, etc., that can be scanned for authenticity as easily as bar codes are scanned now, and identity theft will eventually become an archaic crime.

The second purpose in harvesting and preserving infants' cells at birth has to do with the brilliant advancements in cloning that we can look forward to by around 2025. Having a few cells on hand will make it possible to clone a new organ to replace one that has failed, so that the agonizing wait for organ donors and the obscene practice of selling organs on the black market will be distant memories.

Last but not least on the subject of childbirth, sometime around 2010, hospitals will begin saving and carefully preserving placentas, for a great cause - it will be discovered in the next few years that a protein complex or nutrient or some kind in the placenta can slow the progress of Alzheimer's disease.

By the way, in case it hasn't become apparent already, the late 2007 breakthrough in which skin cells are being programmed to mimic embryonic stem cells is every bit as much of a miracle as it seems, if not more so. Not only will it lead to a thrilling explosion of cures for previously incurable illnesses, strokes, and paralysis, but by 2012, it will also result in the ability to exchange old body parts for compatible new ones, from spinal cords to limbs to burned or cancerous skin.

There's no way to narrow this down to a specific year, but please be aware that as the century progresses, there will be increasing numbers of infertile women and men whose sperm counts are too low to produce children. Countless biological theories will be pursued, but none of them will solve the mystery. Instead, the very simple explanation can be found on The Other Side: as the end of days closes in, fewer and fewer spirits will choose to reincarnate and be around when life on Earth ceases to exist. The fewer the spirits wanting to come here, the fewer the fetuses they'll need to occupy. And the fewer the fetuses required, the fewer the pregnancies. What's interesting, and comforting, is that along with the diminished number of successful pregnancies, couples will find themselves less and less interested in having children. Their conscious minds may not understand why that is, but their spirit minds will be well aware that they carted themselves to be here at this extraordinary time when spirits choosing to be born on Earth will become scarce and the population at the end of days will be dramatically diminished.

Here's the good news: during the first fifty years of the twenty-first century, we're going to see the end of some of the most insidious diseases and afflictions of our time.

Cancer will be destroyed by injecting highly addictive drugs specifically into the nuclei of cancerous cells, which will ultimately results in the cancerous cells consuming and eradicating themselves to satisfy their addiction. I once thought this form of treatment would be in use by at least a handful of exceptional oncologists, if only on an experimental basis, no later than 2006. I don't see it happening now until about 2010.

Also in 2010, diabetes will be significantly reduced and ultimately cured through brilliant advancements in the use of proteins.

Microchips implanted in the base of the brain will restore healthy signals between the brain, the molecular system, and the neurological system, putting an end to paralysis and Parkinson's disease no later than 2012.

In about 2013 or 2014, muscular dystrophy, multiple sclerosis (MS), and ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease) will be defeated through some highly specialized use of the human growth hormone.

The year 2014 will see the introduction of a safe healthy pill or capsule that will replace gastric bypass and lapband surgeries, and anorexia and bulimia will be eliminated by a newly discovered medication that targets the pituitary gland.

In 2015 there will be virtually no invasive surgery. Instead, laser surgery, which of course is already being used with great success, will be brilliantly enhanced by a computerized sensor that will be able to pinpoint, analyze, and take appropriate medical action on the area in question.

Blindness will become a thing of the past by 2020 at the latest without a reliance on organ transplants when a tiny digital device is discovered that, when implanted in the frontal lobes of the brain, will create or reactivate normal, healthy communication between the brain and the eyes.

No later than 2020, thanks to the development of a synthetic material that perfectly duplicates the human eardrum, we'll see a virtual end to deafness.

One of the twenty-first century's most significant medical breakthroughs will be the perfection of synthetic blood in about 2025. It will be universal in type, enhanced with nutritional and immune system supplements and easily manufactured so that there will always be a safe, healthy, plentiful blood supply for transfusions.

The only really alarming developments in the first half will be far outweighed by the advancements I've just described, but they're worth mentioning:

A bacterial infection resembling the "flesh-eating disease" of several years ago will arrive in 2010, transmitted to humans by almost microscopic mites undetectably imported on exotic birds. Known medications and antibiotics will be completely ineffective against this funguslike, extremely contagious disease, and its victims will be quarantined until it's discovered that the bacteria can be destroyed through some combination of electrical currents and extreme heat.

In around 2020, a severe pneumonia-like illness will spread throughout the globe, attacking the lungs and the bronchial tubes and resisting all known treatments. Almost more baffling than the illness itself will be the fact that it will suddenly vanish as quickly as it arrived, attack again ten years later, and then disappear completely.

Love always,
