MEXICO CITY — Fidel Castro will be dead by May. Losing presidential candidate-turned-protest leader Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador will fade into obscurity. The wall between the United States and Mexico will not get built.
These were just some of more than a dozen predictions Mexico's self-proclaimed "Grand Warlock" issued Wednesday for 2007, which he called "the year of the woman."
El Brujo Mayor, aka Antonio Vazquez, has been making predictions since 1980 on events ranging from Mexican politics to international events, the economy, sports and the private lives of celebrities.
The year 2007 "has a very special characteristic," the prognosticator told reporters. "The year is 100 percent feminine."
In 2007, he said, women will be at the forefront of politics worldwide, including Europe, where a woman will become a prominent leader, and in the U.S., where Hillary Clinton is widely expected to seek the Democratic presidential nomination.
