On Friday, November 22, 1963, three women who belonged to the cream of society were sitting in the restaurant of the Mayflower Hotel in Washington: the widow of Admiral Cope, the millionaire philanthropist Kaufman and the famous fortuneteller Jane Dixon. They were served lobsters and eggs in the Florentine style, and then the clairvoyant suddenly declared: - I am so upset that I can not bring myself to swallow a bite. Today something terrible will happen to our president …
"HE IS DEAD!"
… At that moment, the orchestra suddenly fell silent. The restaurant administrator appeared next to the conductor and announced that President Kennedy had been assassinated.
“He’s dead!” The fortuneteller exclaimed loudly in horror and sobbed.
For her, this news of the assassination attempt was doubly tragic. Back in mid-October, she met with Kay Hole. she was friends with the Kennedy family, and talked about the disturbing visions overtaking her: black clouds are gathering over the White House, sinking lower and lower, they stretch to the southwest, to Texas, where President Kennedy was going to go. This vision foretold that death awaited him there. Therefore, the clairvoyant begged Mrs. Hall to persuade John F. Kennedy to abandon the trip to Texas. But Kay Hall decided that it was foolish to ask the president such a request. He will only laugh at her and the "witchcraft devilry" …
And Jane Dixon did not find a place for herself. She knew what a long history her foreboding had. Back in 1952, in St. Matthew's Cathedral, she had a strange vision: the number 1960 shone over the White House in Washington, and a figure of a tall, youthful, blue-eyed man with thick reddish hair appeared in front of the residence of the President of the United States. Then a black cloud appeared over him, and an inner voice told Jane that the presidential elections in 1960 would be won by a Democrat, who would then die a violent death.
Four years later, she reported this grim prediction to a reporter from Parade magazine, but no one took her warning of Kennedy's impending disaster seriously …
When, on the day of Jane's 16th birthday, his father gave his daughter a car, he heard a prophecy that made him laugh. “In seven years, when Evelyn turns sixteen,” Jane said, nodding toward her sister, “you’ll have to buy her a plane.” And this prediction came true. Later, the youngest daughter really requested - and received - an airplane as a gift, later becoming a famous pilot
BALL WITH PICTURES
“America's first clairvoyant lady,” as Jane Dixon was called forty-five years later by the newspaper, was born on January 3, 1918, in Medward, Wisconsin. Soon her father, a wealthy timber merchant, Pinkert. moved with his family to Kalio> Ernia, where Jane spent her childhood. She had a visionary gift very early. The baby had just begun to speak when she once asked her mother to let her play with the "letter with black edges." Surprised Mrs. Pinkert could not understand what her daughter was talking about until a week later she received a mourning message announcing her father's death.
Jane later stood up for her schoolboy brother Ernie when his parents forbade him to play football. She announced that he would become a great footballer. The prophecy came true: ten years later, Ernie's name was entered in the American Football Book of Honor.
At first, the Pinkert family did not attach importance to little Jane's "revelations". For example, she could suddenly guess that her father would bring a large black and white dog from Chicago. Or that the neighbors have rabbits running away from their cages. And each time her premonition was justified.
When the girl was eight years old, Mrs. Pinkert went to Luther Burbank's estate, where a gypsy fortune teller lived, to show her daughter. Looking at the girl's palm, the fortune-teller said that she had a great future for the famous fortuneteller, since “such lines on the palm of her hand, like hers, occur once in a thousand years”. The gypsy gave Jane a crystal ball. in which, she says, she will be able to "read the future."

One afternoon, Jane Dixon and a group of friends found herself at the racetrack where the Lincoln car was drawn in the lottery. Someone in the company teased Jane, saying, why shouldn't she, with her talent for insight, get an expensive car? And the fortuneteller could not resist. Closing her eyes, she placed her hand on the pile of offered lottery tickets and then took one of them without hesitation. “Not” I advise you to throw your money down the drain, - said Jane, when the people nearby also wanted to buy a lottery ticket. - the car is already mine. " No one listened to her. The following Saturday, a lottery table was printed in the local newspaper. It turned out that the main prize - the Lincoln car - fell on Dixon's ticket. And this was the only time in her life when she used her gift for her own benefit
Jane really liked the new "toy", which showed "all sorts of interesting pictures" And that only she saw them. at first the girl did not pay attention. But her believing mother saw in this the providence of God. "Since the Lord has awarded you a visionary gift, you should use it only for the benefit of people, and not for personal gain." - she inspired her daughter. I. looking ahead, I must say that Jane Dixon has always remembered this.
From the age of nine, Jane began to predict the fate of friends, and then strangers, who, having heard about the girl-soothsayer, came to the Pinkert house.
FORECAST FOR THE SKEPTIC
In 1939, Jane married a wealthy businessman, James Dixon, and the newlyweds moved to Washington. Soon she had a chance to prove to her skeptic husband the reality of her visionary gift. She literally with tears in her eyes begged James not to fly to Chicago. He reluctantly agreed. And the next morning, I heard on the radio a message that the flight for which he had a ticket had ended in tragedy: the plane crashed and all passengers were killed. Since then, the husband never questioned his wife's premonitions.
ACHIEVEMENT LIST
Over the years, Jane Dixon's reputation as a fortune teller has been recognized in Washington even at the highest level.
In November 1944, President Roosevelt himself wanted to meet with Dixon. Jane was so impressed by this man in a wheelchair with his courageous directness that she could not help but tell him the truth. When the seriously ill president asked how much time he had left to finish what he had begun, she replied: "Six months or even less."
And Winston Churchill, during his visit to Washington in the spring of the same year, warned Dixon that he should not rush to the elections, otherwise he would be defeated. The British leader just laughed at the American woman's naive forecast. -England will never let me down-. - he proudly declared and … after the elections appointed by him for June he lost the post of prime minister.
Jane Dixon's track record of fulfilled prophecies is quite impressive. So, she accurately predicted the results of all, with one exception, the presidential elections in the States, the death of John Foster Dulles and the suicide of Marilyn Monroe, the resignation of German Chancellor Konrad Adenauer and the 1964 earthquake in Alaska, the demolition of the Berlin Wall and much, much more
It is difficult to list all the political predictions of Jane Dixon, many of which have been published in newspapers since 1947. And most of them came true.
STRANGE RUSSIAN STORIES "
Except for the events in the United States itself, Jane Dixon was probably the first in the predictions. Soviet Union.
So on May 14, 1953, Dixon was invited to take part in the NBC program, which was broadcast live. She intended to tell viewers about her recent visions of Nepal. But as soon as the presenter introduced Jane, another participant, the former US ambassador to the USSR Davis, suddenly asked: for how long One of Jane Dixon's predictions sounded like this: the Russians will be the first in the world to launch an artificial satellite, and this will give them a huge advantage.
Malenkov to be Prime Minister? Peering into the crystal ball, the soothsayer said that she saw a man with an oval face, green eyes and a small beard, who in two years, or maybe even earlier, will replace Malenkov as head of government. The
retired ambassador burst out laughing and said that in Russia prime ministers do not resign: they either die or they are shot And in general, the soothsayer does not correctly imagine a typical Russian leader. After Lenin, beards are not in vogue there. Offended to the quick, Jane objected harshly that she was not inventing anything, but only talking about what he sees in the crystal ball.
But the controversy in front of the cameras did not end there, Dixon again turned to her magic ball and. Continuing her story about the future of Russia, she said that “the bearded man will not rule in Moscow for long. It will be replaced by a short bald fat man. And a silvery ball will rise into space, which will fly around the Earth and. like a dove, sits on the shoulder of the Russian leader- . After a little thought, Jane added that this can only mean one thing: the Russians will be the first in the world to launch an artificial satellite, and this will give them a huge advantage.
The next day the soothsayer was invited by the Soviet ambassador Zarubin. Complimenting her “amazing gift”, he asked directly where Jane had learned about the Soviet space program. "From God". - Dixon just answered. Smiling, the ambassador noticed that then she knew much more than he did. In any case, according to his information. The Soviet Union is not going to launch any space satellites.
When the events predicted by Dixon began two years later, the bearded Bulganin became the Chairman of the Council of Ministers of the USSR. who was replaced by the little bald Khrushchev, everyone who saw on television Jane's funny skirmish with an expert on Russia remembered her prediction, which she made on May 14, 1953. By the way, ten years later, in the New Year's horoscope for newspapers, Dixon wrote that next year Russia big changes await: Khrushchev will be removed
from power. The prediction came true.
Meanwhile, the vision of the soothsayer regarding the launch of the Soviet satellite received an unexpected continuation. After her sensational television appearance
an official from the Pentagon came to Dixon. He stated that he did not intend to listen to "tales of some kind of visions," and demanded that Dixon reveal to him the true source of her information about the secret weapons of the Russians. If she tries to hide it, the intruder said threateningly, it could have “serious consequences for her.
“Although you don’t believe in my visions,” Dixon said, “I know better than you what awaits me, and I do not foresee any complications in my fate. As for the source of information, it is available to everyone. This is the Lord God. Turn to him and he will confirm that I am speaking the truth. This ended their conversation.
A source of information
Jane Dixon made no secret of her gift. She said that information about future events comes to her through several channels. Firstly, these are the signs that arise during the physical contact of the fortuneteller with a person. This contact, according to Dixon, helps her - to tune in to a person's wave, to catch his vibrations - and then her whole life appears before her - both in the past and in the future.
The second source of insormation is its crystal ball.
And finally, the third, main source of her foresight is visions. Sometimes the clairvoyant felt them approaching for two or three days, but sometimes they appeared completely unexpectedly.
“When a vision descends on me, everything, even the air, changes around,” said Jane Dick.
sleep. - I am overwhelmed with an indescribable feeling of love and peace. I feel that I am soaring in the sky, from where endless horizons open, which for some reason everyone else does not see. Moreover, the vision is always absolutely complete, down to the smallest detail. It does not need to be interpreted, it opens immediately and completely … And of course, at such moments you experience immeasurable love for God …”
Jane Dixon died on January 25, 1997, and remained a mystery to scientists.
