Ukraine will continue to be critical in 2026. Its citizens, many of which are distributed around the world, destabilise countries and there will be very unfavourable, often fraudulent conditions with social wrongs.
The great powers America and Russia have the consequence that the individual countries will generally gain an irrefutable need to develop their own originality and independence. Wars are certainly being planned but at the current state of development they will only be planned and not implemented. Current media politics is creating a scenario of fear-mongering.
The country Ukraine cannot really govern itself and needs help. It is torn apart by corruption and extreme manipulation. It lacks its core, its purpose, its position in a world whole.
Overall, the country Ukraine does not only affect the entire world political situation, it presents a significant burden for health, because it is like a trauma that takes its toll and burdens people to a growing extent, so that the enzyme function that should be provided by the digestive organs is significantly reduced. The human capacity for awareness does not notice that this country is insidiously burdening life with its emerging weakness. The meaning of a country, which appears daily in media politics and is continuously losing its originality, is not only a matter of world politics but actually a matter of health. The hopeful peace, longed for by many people, has never come about. Further terrorist tendencies will arise all over the world precisely through this country and people will hardly be aware of the way their health is weighed down, burdened and pushed into depression. President Zelensky will seem really overtly unsuitable and delusional in the coming year.

Russia will continue to firmly maintain its position, although in the coming year Putin will seem to have stepped back. He will appear as a world politician less than in previous years. Israel might be the biggest world-might but has placed itself in discord with the entire political establishment. Israel has lost its identity and must only gradually find it again in appropriate economic activity and work that is reasonably sound. Italy will only be marginally involved in world politics. Overall, people do not want war. However, the structures that are developing more and more towards psychopathy in the different societies and nations are like a counter pole to the general population, because it is truly a psyche sick by nature that wants war in order to validate itself in a frenzy of feelings. Particularly those who project most onto others, and yet bring about no content in their lives, literally need evil, as they live beneath the cloak of the belief that they are the good, and even the peace-makers. For this reason, war is not necessarily a matter of world politics, but awakens through the driving forces of multifaceted, psychopathic structures, which live in human beings themselves.
The question of war can be answered in the negative at the moment with some good pre-vision. There will not be a war but there will be provocations with the use of armed force with completely irrational consequences. Yet reason does seem to give human beings the necessary backbone to avoid major aberrations in the sense of cross-border conflicts.
Ukraine itself will be the country that not only represents a major social and economic burden for Europe, but even has an oppressive and detrimental effect on people’s health worldwide. Politically this country is at an end, it has no centre and no prospects. Although it seems to be a matter of national politics, the whole situation that Ukraine occupies in the world whole has such a detrimental effect that significant weaknesses will occur in the German, Austrian, Italian, Romanian and many other nations. In this sense, the placelessness of a people and of a country has a negative influence on the state of health. It is an unresolved problem in the world order. If this situation regarding Ukraine were completely resolved and if this country had a position, free from fear and solid in its structure, then many fears would also fall away from the people in Europe, and human digestion in general would have an increased enzyme function of at least 50 percent. The consequences for health are therefore not to be underestimated.
Russia is a very autonomous country, which appears as a big, extreme stronghold. Europe will continue to put all its efforts into shielding it from integration into the world, and so constant unrest will be provoked in neighbouring countries. The surrounding countries, however, will suffer under this kind of politics.

Austria has a good prognosis, as in a broader, growing sense it is developing its own position in relation to the whole. Strangely there are very many people in Austria who are inspired by the spiritual school and take attractive, often exemplary roles. While Germany often faces spiritual structures with alienation and hostility, Austria is far better disposed and more receptive.
The growing destabilisation of Germany, both economically and politically, has a weakening effect on the entire European plane. When it is observed spiritually, the country seems as if without backbone and with many limbs. The limbs are determined by foreign nations and interests and this is not only in the field of science and politics but to a particular extent even in the religious field. Secretly, (and this will only be seen spiritually and esoterically, outwardly people will consider this to be most unsuitable) Germany is more connected with Russia than with other countries. But this view is purely esoteric.
In 2026 precisely Germany will distinguish itself a few more times with particularly glaring colours, as it will create laws and measures to turn against Russia. Germany’s soul, however, will not admit that it has so little standing and even secretly envies Russia for its good standing.
Islam has been regarded as a threat to Europe for decades. Although its population is densely flooded with Arabic culture and sometimes more children with brown skin than white sit in the schools, Islam will tend to emerge as benign. The question of women in Islamic countries will likewise find a better order for the coming time and traditions will gradually release their hardness. Egypt will continue to provide a very balanced and peaceful mood for the whole world. Morocco will experience an economic upswing.
Last year Nicanor Perlas passed away. He was an important environmentalist from the Philippines and a sociologist active world-wide. Now in the afterlife his strengths can have the effect of enabling all the countries that he knew, and he knew a great number having travelled throughout almost the entire world, to find better independence and originality for themselves.
