The Prophecies of Blessed Elena Aiello




Blessed Elena Aiello (1895-1961), an Italian stigmatic nun, who was beatified by Pope Benedict XVI in 2011, also made some prophecies which appear to link the future martyrdom of a pope with a coming chastisement involving a massive earthquake. You can find some biographical information on Bl. Elena at the Mystics of the Church blog here.
 
 
“People are offending God too much. Were I to show you all the sins committed on a
single day, you would surely die of grief. These are grave times. The world is thoroughly
upset because it is in a worse condition than at the time of the deluge. Materialism marches
on ever fomenting bloody strifes and fratricidal struggles. Clear signs portend that peace is
in danger. That scourge, like the shadow of a dark cloud, is now moving across mankind:
only my power, as Mother of God, is preventing the outbreak of the storm. All is hanging
on a slender thread. When that thread shall snap, Divine Justice shall pounce upon the
world and execute its dreadful, purging designs. All the nations shall be punished because
sins, like a muddy river, are now covering all the earth.
“The powers of evil are getting ready to strike furiously in every part of the globe.
Tragic events are in store for the future. For quite a while, and in many a way, I have
warned the world. The nation’s rulers do indeed understand the gravity of these dangers,
but they refuse to acknowledge that it is necessary for all people to practice a truly
Christian life to counteract that scourge. Oh, what torture I feel in my heart, on beholding
mankind so engrossed in all kinds of things and completely ignoring the most important
duty of their reconciliation with God. The time is not far off now when the whole world
shall be greatly disturbed. A great deal of blood of just and innocent people as well as
saintly priests will be poured out. The Church shall suffer very much and hatred will be at
its very peak”.
“Italy shall be humiliated and purged in her blood. She shall suffer very much indeed on
account of the multitude of sins committed in this privileged nation, the abode of the Vicar
of Christ”.
“You cannot possibly imagine what is going to happen. A great revolution shall break
out and the streets shall be stained with blood. The Pope’s sufferings on this occasion may
well be compared to the agony that will shorten his pilgrimage on earth. His successor
shall pilot the boat during the storm. But the punishment of the wicked shall not be slow.
That will be an exceedingly dreadful day. The earth shall quake so violently as to scare all
mankind. And so, the wicked shall perish according to the inexorably severity of Divine
Justice. If possible, publish this message throughout the world, and admonish all the people
to do penance and to return right away to God”.
 
 
Like various other prophecies (including most famously the Third Secret of Fatima), Bl. Elena foresees the suffering and martyrdom of a pope - who will endure an "agony" that "will shorten his pilgrimage on earth" (see the earlier post Prophecies of the Martyr-Pope for a list of the many prophecies which foretell the future assassination of a pope). The numerous prophecies of the martyrdom of a future pope were sensationally brought back into focus earlier this year by a prediction attributed to Cardinal Paolo Romeo stating that the pope would die sometime in the year 2012 (see the earlier post Pope Benedict XVI Assassination Plot in 2012?). Speaking of the successor to martyred pontiff, Bl. Elena uses language which clearly alludes to St. John Bosco's Dream of the Two Pillars: "His successor shall pilot the boat during the storm". It will be useful to compare this statement with the relevant portion of Don Bosco's dream below, which foretells that it will be the pope who succeeds the martyred pontiff that will lead the Church during the Second Pentecost:
 
 
“Suddenly the Pope falls gravely wounded. Immediately, those who are with him run to help him and they lift him up. A second time the Pope is struck, he falls again and dies. A shout of victory and joy rings out amongst the enemies; from their ships an unspeakable mockery arises.
“But hardly is the Pontiff dead than another takes his place. The pilots, having met together, have elected the Pope so promptly that the news of the death of the Pope coincides with the news of the election of the successor. The adversaries begin to lose courage.

“The new Pope, putting the enemy to rout and overcoming every obstacle, guides the ship right up to the two columns and comes to rest between them; he makes it fast with a light chain that hangs from the bow to an anchor of the column on which stands the Host; and with another light chain which hangs from the stern, he fastens it at the opposite end to another anchor hanging from the column on which stands the Immaculate Virgin."





It is also interesting to note that in addition to associating the eschatological earthquake with the martyrdom of a future pope, Bl. Elena also appears to have foretold that fire would fall from the sky to consume the earth after a great flood which would see "the overflowing of streams and the seas" - which also conforms to the mega-tsunami hypothesis I forward in my book Unveiling the Apocalypse (given that tsunamis tend to primarily travel inland along rivers after making landfall).
So this too seems to correspond with the "huge mountain, burning with fire" being thrown into the sea in Rev 8:8, which I argue in the post Mega-tsunami is connected to the future collapse of the volcano Cumbre Vieja in the Canary Islands - which many scientists believe will generate a massive tidal wave that will devastate the east coast of America. This event would almost certainly bring about the total economic collapse of the USA, leading to a shift in world power that will eventually culminate in the battle of Armageddon. As we can see below, the prophecies of Bl. Elena follow this same pattern of a massive flood, followed by a terrible war and the destruction of the earth by fire:

“In so saying Our Lord God disappeared. Then the Madonna appeared to me. She was dressed in black, with seven swords piercing Her Immaculate Heart. Coming closer, with an expression of profound sorrow, and with tears on her cheeks, she spoke to me, saying: ‘Listen attentively, and reveal to all: ‘My Heart is sad for so many sufferings in an impending world in ruin. The justice of Our Father is most offended. Men live in their obstinacy of sin. The wrath of God is near. Soon the world will be afflicted with great calamities, bloody revolutions, frightful hurricanes, and the overflowing of streams and the seas’. ‘Cry out until the priests of God lend their ears to my voice, to advise men that the time is near at hand, and if men do not return to God with prayers and penances, the world will be overturned in a new and more terrible war. Arms most deadly will destroy peoples and nations! The dictators of the earth, specimens infernal, will demolish the churches and desecrate the Holy Eucharist, and will destroy things most dear. In this impious war, much will be destroyed of that which has been built by the hands of man’. ‘CLOUDS WITH LIGHTNING FLASHES OF FIRE IN THE SKY AND A TEMPEST OF FIRE SHALL FALL UPON THE WORLD. THIS TERRIBLE SCOURGE, NEVER BEFORE SEEN IN THE HISTORY OF HUMANITY, WILL LAST SEVENTY HOURS. GODLESS PERSONS WILL BE CRUSHED AND WIPED OUT. MANY WILL BE LOST BECAUSE THEY REMAIN IN THEIR OBSTINACY OF SIN. THEN SHALL BE SEEN THE POWER OF LIGHT OVER THE POWER OF DARKNESS’. ‘Be not silent, my daughter, because the hours of darkness, of abandonment, are near. ‘I am bending over the world, holding in suspension the justice of God. OTHERWISE THESE THINGS WOULD ALREADY HAVE NOW COME TO PASS. Prayers and penances are necessary because men MUST RETURN TO GOD and to My Immaculate Heart—the Mediatrix of men to God, and thus THE WORLD WILL BE AT LEAST IN PART SAVED’. ‘Cry out these things to all, like the very echo of my voice. Let this be known to all, because it will help save many souls, and prevent much destruction in the Church and in the world’.
April 16, 1954

The Madonna speaks: “The hour of the justice of God is close, and will be terrible!” “Tremendous scourges are impending over the world, and various nations are struck by epidemics, famines, great earthquakes, terrific hurricanes, with overflowing rivers and seas, which bring ruin and death.” “If the people do not recognize in these scourges (of nature) the warnings of Divine Mercy, and do not return to God with truly Christian living, ANOTHER TERRIBLE WAR WILL COME FROM THE EAST TO THE WEST. RUSSIA WITH HER SECRET ARMIES WILL BATTLE AMERICA; WILL OVERRUN EUROPE. The river Rhine will be overflowing with corpses and blood. Italy, also, will be harassed by a great revolution, and the Pope will suffer terribly.” “Spread the devotion to my Immaculate Heart, in order that many souls maybe conquered by my love and that many sinners may return to my Maternal Heart. Do not fear, for I will accompany with my maternal protection my faithful ones, and all those who accept my urgent warnings, and they — especially by the recitations of my Rosary — will be saved.” “Satan goes furiously through this disordered world, and soon will show all his might. But, because of my Immaculate Heart, the triumph of Light will not delay in its triumph over the power of darkness, and the world, finally, will have tranquility and peace.”

Blessed Elena's prophecies seem almost an overall summary of what is going to strike. Famines, wars, earthquakes, tidal waves, the eschatological earthquake and then the big one if mankind doesnt repent - fire falling from the sky to consume most of humanity. Maybe 15 years ago we would have laughed about the prospect of Russia invading the west and say that her prophecies were really shaped with the cultural lenses of the time. However perhaps Russia are gearing up for something:

http://www.infowars.com/the-russian-bear-is-back-the-soviet-union-is-being-revived-and-the-cold-war-is-not-over/

John Vennari of CFN has an excellent audio presentation on the life of Blessed Elena which was largely based on Msgr Francesco Spadafora's book "The Incredible Life Story of Elena Aiello."

Russia would be the most likely country to fill the political vacuum in the wake of the collapse of the US. And Bl Elena's prophecies appear to be directly related to the Second Secret of Fatima:

"If my requests are heeded, Russia will be converted, and there will be peace; if not, she will spread her errors throughout the world, causing wars and persecutions of the Church. The good will be martyred; the Holy Father will have much to suffer; various nations will be annihilated."

But it seems to be suggested that whether all the requests are heeded or not, Russia will still be converted during the Second Pentecost and era of peace:

"In the end, my Immaculate Heart will triumph. The Holy Father will consecrate Russia to me, and she shall be converted, and a period of peace will be granted to the world”.

So the prophecy that Russia will be converted is guaranteed. However this guarantee doesn't seem to extend to cover whether or not Russia will be the rod of God's anger (Isa 10:5).

"However this guarantee doesn't seem to extend to cover whether or not Russia will be the rod of God's anger"

I've wondered about that myself after reading your website and others over the last couple years along with the varying prophecies/private revelations.

It seems to make a lot of sense.

Thank you for the interesting post. I don't think that Russia, however, could fill the political vacuum if the US falls. My reason is that Russia is not just in demographic decline but in demographic collapse. The book "The Empty Cradle" (published in 2004) points out that Russia is losing population at the rate of 750,000 per year. That's 1.5 million every 2 years. The population is aging rapidly. And an old nation is not in a position to project international power.

Emmett O'Regan said...

Hi Mack,

I suppose it depends when it happens... If America were to fall tomorrow, Russia would be the obvious contender to fill the political vacuum in the west. But as you point, the world could be very different in 20 years time. Whatever nation rises to assume power in this period will be related to the ten kings of the Antichrist - who will ensure that America can not rise from the devastation that will befall it, in their quest to allow the Antichrist to seize power:

"And the ten horns that you saw are ten kings who have not yet received royal power, but they are to receive authority as kings for one hour, together with the beast. These are of one mind, and they hand over their power and authority to the beast. They will make war on the Lamb, and the Lamb will conquer them, for he is Lord of lords and King of kings, and those with him are called and chosen and faithful.”
And the angel said to me, “The waters that you saw, where the prostitute is seated, are peoples and multitudes and nations and languages. And the ten horns that you saw, they and the beast will hate the prostitute. They will make her desolate and naked, and devour her flesh and burn her up with fire, for God has put it into their hearts to carry out his purpose by being of one mind and handing over their royal power to the beast, until the words of God are fulfilled. And the woman that you saw is the great city that has dominion over the kings of the earth.”
(Rev 17:12-18)

Of course, all these comments on Russian take on a new light as the takeover of the Ukraine takes place.

Jack Russia is fulfiling the prophecies of Mary and USA can only sit and watch and suffer for they have lost thier faith.

Una Voce Miami said...

The prophecies of Blessed Elena Aiello (1895-1961) were made while Russia did not exist! It was the Soviet Union and it was under Communist domination.

The Soviet Union DOES NOT exist anymore and Russia is NOT under Communist domination.

Blessed Elena Aiello was talking about the Soviet Union during World War II, not Christian Russia today!

Una Voce Miami said...

Russia today represents the values of the Christian West and the United States of America represents the vilest corruption and godlessness of the enemies of Christendom.

Triangulate all these words of Blessed Elena with the messages of "Our Lady of All Nations" (in Amsterdam) which are largely unknown; however, they were reinforced (even to the image!) in the apparations of "Our Lady of Akita" (Japan).
Both were approved.

i just watch the recommended video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_-Q9pi9rSY

It makes a good case for a the religious beliefs of Putin and the decadence of our leadership in a religious sense. But my God, how much of the brother talking can you take. He is so openly anti jewish that it sickens me. It was very much in line with KKK rhetoric. Do you really think Jesus agree with the hatred of Jews. Do you think Mark, the queen of Peace and a Jew herself in life endorses jewish hatred. I see that link as appauling. It is an insult to the love of Christ and His Mother. It makes God small to the masses. There is no justice in the brother's hatred. I may not be a fan of the hyper liberal moves of my government but I would rather be shot than to blame the world problems on the Jews of this world. Its unGodly.

The prostitute is NY and the 10 kings are nations which we know most of the world dislike USA, including the allies, The beast can be Russia or could be nations empowering satan. The 10 kings can be the heads of the new world order. China fits the description of the beast. The 10 kings is likely to be the heads of the new world order e the beast could be USA.

I think that the mountain of fire will be a meteor strike into the ocean. which would cause the seas to overflow and would also cause a massive global earthquake. the only way to live through this is to be supernaturally saved by God through the power of the Rosary and the Eucharist ("The Sign left by my Son"). This also corisponds to St. John Bosco's "Dream of two columns", in which the Church (which is the faithful catholics) is saved by being anchored to the two columns, which represent The Rosary, and The Eucharist. After this chastisment, the only people left in the world will be devout catholics (those who pray The Rosary everyday, and who receive the Eucharist). That will usher in 1000 year's of peace, when Satan will be bound for 1000 years (Revelation 20). Just my thoughts on this.

The following information is for orthodox Catholics. A recent book called "The Five Beasts of St. Hildegard - Prophetic Symbols of Modern Society" describes 5 brief historical periods that must take place which are back to back and prepare the way for the Antichrist. The 5 Beasts represent the brief historical periods. There is also no conditionality to the prophecy. St. Hildegard was made a Doctor of the Catholic Church by Pope Benedict.

The book is easy reading and only 84 pages. The author makes a very compelling case, in my opinion, that we are coming to the end of the 4th period if we have not already completed it. What is particularly alarming is the violent nature of the 5th period. At the end of the 5th period will come the son of perdition.

All theses different opinions are enough to confuse anyone. I pray my Rosery everyday, go to Mass,Confession regular,say Divine Mercy other prayers, Offer up for Sinners etc.But all this is confusing. Three Days of Darkness,War,Bad Storms etc.Fire from Heaven,Earthquake etc. How is anyone going to survive that.I'm trying to prepare my family but it's like being blind not knowing which way to go.I need instructions.

I feel like I am in the same boat as Anonymous above. What should be the correct timeline of these things? Where do we go? What's most important from a material standpoint?

Really makes your day job tough to find purpose in.

badmarine22 said...

Jesus said that no one know the day or the hour when the thief comes. So we should be ready all the time. The way to be ready is simple. Stay in the state of Grace (don't commit any mortal sins), go to Confession regularly (weekly if possible), go to Mass and receive the Holy Eucharist every Sunday, and more if possible, Say the Rosary every day, and trust in God that if you or your loved ones die in any coming chastisements, that you will be taken to heaven to be happy with our Lord and Lady and all the Saints and Holy Angles forever and ever.
