What Parravicini said about the future of the United States and why today he is attracting attention again

Every now and then, a name from the past circulates again with force when the present feels unstable. That is the case of Benjamín Solari Parravicini, an Argentine artist born in Buenos Aires at the end of the nineteenth century, known for his “psychographies”: drawings accompanied by short, cryptic phrases loaded with symbolism. His followers maintain that these images were not simple creative occurrences, but intuitive or spiritual messages that described future scenarios.

Today his work is once again attracting attention for a very specific reason: many interpretations link his symbols with modern crises (global conflicts, economic collapses, pandemics, surveillance, social polarization). And when the public conversation in the United States is filled with tension and fear, his warnings seem to “fit” too well with what people already feel.

The “giant” in crisis: the signs that Parravicini would have anticipated

When the future of the United States is spoken of in Parravicini’s popular interpretations, five axes almost always appear that are repeated. Not as exact dates (he did not work with calendars), but as symbolic sequences: first an internal attrition, then shock events, and finally a profound change.

1) The fall would not come “from without”, but from within

A central idea is that the greatest damage would not be an external invasion, but an internal fracture: irreconcilable sides, opposing neighbors, divided families, a society where the sense of “us” is broken. In this reading, the main threat would not be military, but cultural and emotional: distrust, hatred, pride, and loss of cohesion.

2) Symbols of attacks, ruins and blows to national confidence

Another line of interpretations points to images associated with attacks or collapses in emblematic places, especially when New York is mentioned as a symbol of power, visibility and “center”. The key, for those who follow him, is not only the event itself, but what it provokes afterwards: collective fear, a sense of vulnerability and a change in priorities.

3) Economic crisis as “drowning” and incomplete reconstruction

In several readings there is talk of a “giant” who falls, gets up, but is wounded. Translated into today’s language: financial crises, loss of stability, prolonged uncertainty, and a recovery that does not restore the same confidence as before. This idea comes back with force every time there is recession, inflation, indebtedness, or fear of a systemic collapse.

4) Invisible “Pests” and Threats

Another recurring interpretation is that of diseases that appear without war or armies, hitting daily life and paralyzing societies. The reason why this resonates today is obvious: the world has already lived through a modern pandemic, and since then many people have been left with the feeling that the unexpected can happen again.

5) Technology, surveillance and control: the risk of losing freedom without noticing it

Perhaps the most current is reading on screens, technological dependence, surveillance and manipulation. In this framework, the danger would not be “the technology” itself, but the combination of:

• distracted or stimulus-addicted population,
• increasingly automated decisions,
• gradual loss of privacy,
• “Soft” social control (no need for visible force).

That is why his work is reactivated: because today there is the real debate about algorithms, data, surveillance, AI and digital polarization.

Why Your Message Resonates Right Now

• Because it speaks in symbols: each generation can “see” in those drawings what it fears most.
• Because the era is loaded: polarization, wars, economy, social anxiety.
• Because there have already been traumatic events: when a strong event occurs, people tend to look for patterns that explain the chaos.
• Because its narrative is a perfect sequence for viral content: mystery + warning + “the worst is yet to come” + final hope.

Tips for approaching this issue without falling into fear or manipulation

1. Treat it as interpretation, not as a sentence. “This is literal” is not the same as “this can be read as a metaphor”.
2. Don’t make important decisions because of prophecies. If something affects you (anxiety, obsession), put limits on the consumption of that content.
3. Difference between warning and sensationalism. There are channels that use these topics to scare and retain attention; That is not spiritual pursuit.
4. If you make content, focus it on useful questions: what symbols teach about the human condition (fear, pride, division) and how to strengthen values, community, faith, calm.
5. It closes with personal agency: the most powerful thing is not “what is coming”, but “how I respond”: union, prudence, discernment, interior life, responsible preparation.
