In Edward Hicks' masterpiece "Peaceable Kingdom, " ca. 1830-32, harmony prevails amidst diverse creatures, hinting at prophecies yet to unfold. Venturing further back in time, we encounter CARMENTA, an ancient Roman prophetess who foretold great events and guided her people towards destiny. Alongside her stands Mother Shipton, a legendary English seeress whose prophetic verses captivated generations. Ernest Board's portrayal of Fortuna reminds us that fate often dances on the edge of uncertainty. Like the Christmas star illuminating planetary conjunctions, prophecies can emerge from unexpected alignments in celestial realms. Jeremiah's dictation of his prophecies to Baruch transports us to biblical times when divine messages echoed through prophets' voices. Apollo offering a libation to the raven symbolizes how even gods sought guidance from nature's signs and oracles like The Pythonesse. Ugolino da Siena's depiction of The Last Supper reveals Jesus sharing an Easter Prophecy with his disciples – a moment charged with anticipation and profound foresight. El Greco's portrayal of Saint James the Great reminds us that prophecy transcends religious boundaries and speaks directly to human hearts. Journeying across continents brings us to Chichen Itza, where Mayan civilization embraced prophecy as an integral part of their culture – predicting cosmic events with astonishing accuracy. Finally, suffragettes bravely carried forth their own Easter Prophecy for gender equality – fighting for justice against all odds. Their unwavering determination echoes throughout history as they paved the way for progress and shattered societal barriers. In this captivating tapestry woven by time itself, prophecy emerges as both a mystical force and a guiding light.
