'Living Nostradamus' reveals which 2026 prediction terrifies him most.
Brazilian prophet Athos Salomé, often referred to as the 'Living Nostradamus', has issued an unsettling warning about the prediction he is 'most scared' about coming true.
Following a discussion with Ladbible's Tyla, the mystic laid out a pretty hefty list of events he believes will unfold in 2026.
Among his predictions, Salomé forecasted economic crises, increasing international conflicts that could trigger World War III, the growth of digital currencies, and a new deadly disease that could cause ultimate chaos.

But during an interview with UNILAD, Salomé singled out one particular threat of debilitating solar storms. The self-proclaimed seer claimed that 'consistent evidence' suggests the space weather forecast would occur in early March 2026.
“Since 2024, it has peaked in solar activity and exhibited a marked trend of increasing instability. This is not inflated language. It mirrors an actual physical risk that’s growing month after month," Salomé explained. “My direct and objective perspective is as follows: Solar storms now seem like the most plausible scenario to have such immediate impact on daily life, and backed by robust science."
Salomé added: “This deserves full focus. Not out of fear, but rather due to measurable signals in synchrony with potential power cuts, communication failures and technological disruptions in affected regions.”
While his other 2026 forecasts are worrying, they unfold through minor, gradual cycles, whereas solar activity can strike ‘swiftly, without much warning’.
“Hence, why I view it as one of the most sensitive and high-stakes junctures for 2026,” Salomé said, adding that solar storms could cause mass disruption and major power outages.
According to NASA, a solar storm is an explosion of particles, magnetic fields and debris, blasted into the solar system by the Sun. When aimed at Earth, these extreme weather phenomena can disturb the planet's magnetic field, potentially causing the blackouts Salomé warns about.
However, the space agency notes these events are unlikely to impact people on the ground.
Salomé's warnings have found some support from the scientific community, with ABC reporting that a solar event is currently in progress. The solar cycle began in November 2024 and is expected to wrap up in March 2026.
NASA explains that approximately every 11 years, during the peak of the solar cycle, the Sun's magnetic poles reverse, with the star shifting from a calm state to an active, turbulent one.
Of course, our planet has experienced solar storms before. The most famous occurred in September 1859, known as The Carrington Event.
This remains the strongest geomagnetic storm ever documented and reportedly produced dazzling auroral displays while igniting fires at telegraph stations, as per research from the Geophysical Institute at the University of Alaska.
