Predicting the future is a fool’s game. Who predicted the great events of the past decade? Nobody. But why should that stop me? Dusting off my crystal ball, I walk where fools fear to tread to make some daring predictions for 2010.
Gazing into my crystal ball…I foresee…
1. Iran
I predict Iran will be the big story for 2010. The people of Iran are trying to win back their government from dictatorship. Will it work? Is the dictatorial regime at the end of its rope? Unlike what happened with the downfall of communism in Eastern Europe, I don’t foresee Iran reforming itself. I wish it would be different. Instead, I foresee Iran on the cusp of creating a nuclear weapon. And Israel will attack Iran to prevent it from acquiring that nuclear weapon. This will be the big event of 2010. I foresee war late in 2010, perhaps November. Hope I am wrong, and the people of Iran win self determination.

My Crystal Ball
2. America
Better days are ahead…in a small way. We will recover from our economic meltdown. However, America’s long-term decline will slowly continue, a trend that has been going on for over a decade. Asia will continue to prosper. America has reached the point of no return, having outsourced its manufacturing around the world. The world’s glory days (and jobs) have moved East. Even so, the Dow Jones Industrial Average will get close to 12,000 by 2010’s end, until prediction number 1 kicks in. Hold stocks until October, then sell and wait for a buying opportunity afterwards.
3. President Obama
With President Obama we have an intelligent, moderate, levelheaded leader. What is not widely recognized is he is also bringing good karma back to America. This will result in many unrecognized benefits. Life is a state of mind and if we can change our national mindset, we can change our lives. The decade ahead will be better then the decade behind us. This shouldn’t be too hard to accomplish!
4. The reincarnation of Michael Jackson
Celebrity predictions are a must. Michael Jackson will be reincarnated in 2010. He will be reborn in Tennessee, a web-footed infant girl, to a young Hispanic woman. Michael Jackson had many unresolved issues in life and will feel the need to return for another lifetime to resolve these issues. Now as a woman, he will still retain his talent and grow up to become an opera singer. Yet as a young woman she will feel she is wearing a mask. One day while using past life regression therapy, she will discover she is the reincarnation of Michael Jackson and choose to leave the opera and become a famed pop singer instead.

Hi Arlene,
My mocking MJ is probaby not fair. He was likely a wounded individual, and if reincarnation is an option for some, I actually do imagine he’d return for another try to get things right. I do wonder if talents from a previous life can be passed along to a new reborn life.
