During their annual New Year ritual in Lima, Peruvian shamans predicted President Donald Trump's health could be in trouble in 2026. In a bold political prediction, Juan de Dios Garcia, one of the participating shamans who gathered on a beach in southern Lima for their annual New Year’s ritual on December 29th, 2025, said, "The United States should prepare itself because Donald Trump will fall seriously ill."
The shamans, who donned colorful ponchos and sprinkled flowers on the sand at the event, also forecast the downfall of Venezuela's counterpart, 63-year-old Nicolas Maduro. Juan said, "We see Nicolas Maduro defeated. Nicolas Maduro will flee Venezuela. He will not be captured."

This included Chinese President Xi Jinping, 72, Russian President Vladimir Putin, 73, and 47-year-old Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
As for Putin and Zelenskyy, the shamans once again predicted that the war between their two countries will end. Juan said, "I see that the conflict will end, they will raise the flag of peace."

Juan said, "The woman who dreams of ruling Peru, I have been able to see through the wachuma [ancestral plant used in spiritual practices] that Keiko Fujimori will be president in 2026."
