The work offered to the reader is devoted to the analysis of classical prophetic texts that may be related to political events taking place in the world. The subject of analysis is the "Centuria" by Michel Nostradamus, the prophecies of the Bulgarian clairvoyant Vanga, recorded by her contemporaries, the "Fatima prophecies" transmitted in 1917 to Portuguese children during the famous apparitions of the Virgin Mary, and a number of other texts. In addition, the book examines the history of the appearance of the "Sovereign" icon of the Virgin, which occurred on the day of the abdication of the last Russian emperor, analyzes different interpretations of this event and proposes its new historiosophical interpretation.
