To simplify the process we will place all the events and ideas or themes into one letter.
Religion
The year that past and the year that is upon us will be marked by major shifts and focus in religious subjects and personalities. The year that past belonged to a large extent to the Catholic Church and its attractive pope. Youthful populations were forced into the foreground of ideas with discussions about the future and employment taking center stage.
Reformation
Within the subject of religion we expect to see some major changes which will attempt to shake the foundations of faith as we know it. This will run counter to traditional systems and will be brought to the surface by youthful leaders who unavoidably might end up. Duping those that are traditionally vulnerable to manipulation. One the whole though, there agitations will be healthy and will bring about a dusting off of ancient texts to clarify and verify unusual expressions of spiritual expression.
Revolution
These transformative processes will take place even if they will seem unrelated. There will be links similar to those in the early sixties that will brought about independence of African states en masse. Even of the independence moves were later criticized for being incomplete, we will continue to see a new breed of leaders and movements emerge which unlike in the past will have no noticeable leadership.
Red
In Uganda, the UPC is will get a chance to reassert itself. Even if there are not currently represented in government, they will be forced to make an imprint on the country. In the U.S the Republicans will have to make some major changes if they are to retake power. If they do, they will face an uphill battle in redefining some of the massive moves that are the rest of eight years our of power. Other reds will benefit too. Venezuela's leadership will survive some trying economic times even if this will take place under tremendous pressure.
Russia
The great bear sees to have awoken after a time in hibernation. She will move to protect her cubs and will express her anger at any one who stands in her way. She will continue to express herself in the economic markets making use her massive size and overwhelming power.
Rwanda
A small nation with a vast number of lakes will make her mark on the region. We see the military and its strategic leadership expressing her power and influence and expanding her reach beyond her borders. Driven by a fear of two past she too will assert herself. Treasures will be found in her waters which will bring much wealth. To protect this wealth she will be forced to threaten war with those who oppose her.
Refugees
When Europe went into crisis, we began to wonder if it was possible to heal one part of the continent by drawing attention to another. Treating a wound by forcing the body to focus on something much painful. So for a moment our attention moved from Economic issues to Social ones and a flood of refugees took the attention of the world. There is a spiritual principle that seems to draw favor on those who take care of people who sincerely seek refuge. These groups of people in need will bring blessing to those who with a discerning heart can make full use of their needs.
I am certain that there was some pleasure and healing in some part of the German psyche when sounds were heard from one set of citizens demanding to go to Germany as opposed to England!
Reawakening
Unfortunately the optimism that drew masses to the continent of Europe has taken place at a time of Economic challenges. These two often combine to produce a measure of xenophobia. The flood of new faces as can be expected has therefore taken brunt of the hatred and ire which many far right groups have used to fuel their message. How the far right manages to communicate its genuine fears without isolating the rest of the world will remain a mystery.
Re-think
While massive changes have taken place the mainly lighter skinned Muslim part of Africa, covering Tunisia, Egypt, and Libya, other parts below our mason-dixon line remain untouched and unaffected. We saw though the first sign of a shift into darker Africa, where Burkina Faso, Congo and even Burundi pushed against their respective governments in an attempt to prevent them from violating the sacred contents to their constitutions.
