A group of Peruvian shamans gathered on a beach in southern Lima to perform their annual New Year ritual, delivering bold predictions for 2026 that included the fall of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro at the hands of President Donald Trump.
The spiritual leaders' forecast has gained attention across social media, with users noting the unusual nature of the prediction. As Twitter user @Mollyploofkins reported, "A group of Peruvian shamans gathered on a beach in southern Lima to perform their annual New Year ritual, delivering predictions for 2026 that included the fall of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and a serious illness for US President Donald Trump."
The ayahuasca-guided predictions come at a time when the Trump administration has renewed its focus on Latin American affairs, particularly regarding the ongoing crisis in Venezuela under Maduro's socialist regime. The shamans' forecast aligns with conservative hopes that Trump will take decisive action against the dictator who has systematically destroyed Venezuela's economy and oppressed its people.
Social Media Reactions Pour In
The unusual prediction has sparked commentary across social platforms. @MusicWorld360x shared the news with the caption "Shamans predict Trump will oust Maduro in 2026," while @TheGreatLander offered a humorous take on the shamans' forecasting abilities, noting "They didn't offer any insight into the American 2026 midterm elections, although they may be able to predict that within the same margin of error as American pollsters right now."
While predictions from spiritual ceremonies may seem unconventional, the shamans' forecast reflects a widespread desire throughout the Americas to see an end to Maduro's destructive rule. Venezuela's collapse under socialism has created a massive refugee crisis affecting the entire region, making regime change a critical issue for hemispheric stability.
President Trump has previously taken a strong stance against Maduro's regime, implementing sanctions and supporting opposition leader Juan Guaidó during his first term. The shamans' prediction suggests that Trump's second term may see even more decisive action against the Venezuelan dictator.
