An alarming prediction for 2026 from a renowned psychic appears to be materialising, as a wave of significant earthquakes shakes regions across the globe in the year's opening days.
Prediction Meets Reality: A Surge in Seismic Activity
Jill M Jackson, a twice-named 'Psychic of the Year' and spiritual author from Mississippi, forewarned of intensified earthquake activity this year, particularly along the US West Coast and in Asia. She cautioned that these tremors could amplify 'major water events', leading to more severe flooding.
Data from the US Geological Survey (USGS) now lends startling credence to her forecast. In just the first week of 2026, the agency has recorded nearly 100 earthquakes worldwide with a magnitude greater than 4.5. The pace has been especially fierce along the Pacific Rim, where 10 large quakes over magnitude 5.0 struck in a mere 48-hour period, impacting Japan, the Philippines, Indonesia, and Russia.
This cluster included a powerful magnitude 6.4 earthquake that hit the Philippines late on Tuesday night, Eastern Time. Furthermore, North America has already felt a substantial tremor, with a magnitude 6.5 quake rocking southern Mexico on January 2, forcing evacuations in Mexico City.
Historical Accuracy and Specific Warnings for the West Coast
Jackson's track record adds weight to her current predictions. In November 2025, she accurately foresaw the major 7.6 magnitude earthquake that struck off Japan's Aomori Prefecture on December 8, 2025, an event that caused injuries, damage, and triggered tsunami alerts.
Her latest warnings urge Americans, especially those in California, Oregon, and Washington, to prepare. She highlights the threat posed by the dangerous fault lines lining the West Coast, including the notorious San Andreas system. 'There's a lot of earth changes coming. I see land shifting... And it's important for us to be in a place of preparation,' Jackson revealed.
This call for readiness resonates in California, where residents endured over 300 minor quakes in November and December alone in the San Ramon area, sparking fears of the impending 'Big One'. The USGS estimates a 72% chance of a magnitude 6.7 or greater quake on the Bay Area's fault systems by 2043.
Broader Forecast: Economic Shifts and Ongoing Conflicts
Beyond seismic events, Jackson's forecast for 2026 extends to significant economic instability in the United States. She predicts a turbulent period that will lead to widespread job losses. 'Sadly, I do see a lot more people losing their jobs in 2026,' she stated during a December 26 interview.
However, she frames this upheaval as a potential catalyst for positive personal change, suggesting layoffs may push individuals towards careers better aligned with their 'soul's path' and spur a rise in local business creation.
On the global stage, Jackson anticipates that ongoing wars, such as the Russia-Ukraine conflict, will persist for several more years without a quick resolution, though some regional conflicts may 'fizzle out' by mid-2026.
As the planet experiences this forceful start to the year, Jackson's prescient words serve as a stark reminder of the unpredictable power of natural forces and the perceived insights of those who claim to see beyond the present.
