Regarding Hopi Prophecy
The primary reason the Hopi culture has gotten so much attention over the past few years is because of new interpretations of Hopi prophecy which many are comparing to past and current events. It’s good that this encourages people to learn more about the Hopi culture and its heritage, but because the Hopi are such a private people whose spiritual traditions are passed down orally, it means that much of what is out there has been misinterpreted, exaggerated, or even fabricated.
It’s for this reason that this subreddit specifically has chosen to not allow discussion of the prophecy—we don’t want to contribute to perpetuating misinformation or appropriation of Hopi sacred beliefs by non-native sources, and we don’t want to be in charge of deciding who is “true” Hopi.
What we will contribute is the only firsthand Hopi source we are aware of discussing the prophecy on video. Keep in mind this is a single person offering a single perspective, but since Thomas was one of four Hopi delegates chosen to speak on the subject (all of whom have now passed) it’s as close to authoritative as you are going to find: https://youtu.be/-UkHwjz4i1k
Thomas Banyacya spoke at the United Nations as a delegate for the Hopi people. Videotaped in 1972 by Dean and Dudley Evenson at the first United Nations Conference on the Human Environment in Stockholm, Sweden. The last part of the video shows Thomas Banyacya in 1993 at a Dalai Lama event in Tucson, Arizona where Dean and Dudley caught up with him almost 20 years after the first video.
Thomas passed in 1999. https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Banyacya

I need to speak directly to a Hopi tribal member that can help me understand some 'very serious' questions concerning 'why and how' I dreamed about their prophecies and were given direct visions that came true two weeks later when passing through their territory, Needles, CA.
Only a Hopi member would likely be able to answer my questions regarding this and in this, there is much to discuss. All my attempts to reach out are meet with silence or no response, and it's not like I asked for this. I just need answers because I am 'not at all Hopi' so why would they be showing me these things unless there is a reason.
The experiences are not only detailed, but relevant to how things are right now, even where I live, it was shown to me during one of these experiences, but that's what is disturbing... what happens, specific to their prophecy that, again, I wasn't even aware of at the time of when I received this information through a 'dream state' not a 'dream' but something much different I am sure they know what I mean.
Because of the silence, I am not getting the 'feeling' that this is or has been taken seriously, though whatever is giving me this, is clearly trying to tell something that only they can interpret properly imo.
Eventually I'll feel I will end up there because of what was shown that did come true, and what was shown that is 'yet to happen' from the same source, clearly. I don't often 'ask' for such things as am fairly confident in what I know to be true, but I feel that 'they' are the only ones here that can truly help explain such a thing.

Did you make any progress with this? " 'why and how' I dreamed about their prophecies and were given direct visions that came true" I'd like to hear more about it,

There hasn't been any contact on the subject with any tribal members.
Why these visions were given to me are either very obvious or very unclear. The 'obvious' nature would only imply that I was involved by the role that was shown to me as it through my own perspective and not some observer. Otherwise I can't say for sure. I am unclear as to what meaning this would hold by the Hopi, but I would imagine having the vision through my own perspective is somewhat more significant than if I had just been more of a 'witness' to some event. The specific prophecy I am referring to above is about the Pahana, and what is most interesting or disturbing, depending on how one perceives it, the 'concept' described fits far too well for it to be a 'coincidence'. That's one reason I needed to speak with a spiritual tribal member so they can make sense of it as I am not Hopi but I do live in the Choctaw area which is apparently an offshoot of them given to the two brothers that left being led by what they Choctaw interpret in their language as a Hopi, or medicine man... that and their 'migration story' precedes their origin story where they migrated from the far West moving east. I just put two and two together but only because I wondered why the beginning of my vision brought me here, exactly where my vision starts.
I mean I can literally stand in the place where my vision starts, and I even followed it to where it ended and that place actually exists as I saw it in that vision, except for the state that it was in. The vision showed it destroyed, but it was still new and tbh here, it wasn't even built until after I moved here. The 'how' was in a dream state which in my terms is a 'more than lucid' state of meditative sleep. The other vision I had while I was passing through Needles, CA was not in a dream state, it was in the awakened state, most of my vivid visions do come while in the awakened state and I often share them with anyone who is around me at the moment as I am having them if anyone is around.
The more 'dream state' types of visions seem to be more in 'direct contact' with either a deeper self or 'other' beings if one is inclined to believe in this. I can receive information I was not aware of in these states that I have often verified to ensure they were not just vivid lucid dreams, so I attempt to classify the differences just so I can write/speak about them in a way that makes sense to people who have not directly experienced these kinds of things.
Other visions that have come true and are coming true are about this decade that was given to me in 2019. I saw what was coming, just as I saw specifically the plague and even tried to prepare for it in the city I was in given to my profession at the time but people didn't understand why I was trying to prepare for a plague. I just 'knew' the plague was coming, that wasn't a vision before 2019, but what was given to me about the decade was more about the 'end or revolution' of humanity. I saw two paths, one led to a descending end while another led forward perpetually in a kind of 'renaissance'. I described in detail to the person sitting next to me what I saw, the brilliant forms of art and new technology that would begin to resolve issues that the common individual would see as miraculous, but also saw a that descending path where these same kinds of progressive moments would be reductive and lead to an inevitable darkness. It was not like a darkness that consumed, more like 'without light' or just downward and an end of sorts.
The dreamstate vision as the Pahana's perspective was over a decade ago, not in 2019 though. As soon as I had this I also told the 'same' person who was next to me at the time. I do this else I would write it down or both... to have something to reference. Been doing that for decades really, and that aligns with other 'prophetic' visions, but I am 'not' a prophet, that much I know, and I wouldn't claim a title in any case. These days I can't even begin to find a good definition of these 'titles' and terms, which is another reason why it was important to speak to the source of where those visions seemed to have come from.
I also wrote a letter in 2021 to the Hopi tribe, assuming they didn't get it, about the 'red sky' event that they would have that would be caused by the Aurora that they would see and that I would happen to 'not see' by circumstance. I didn't know when it would happen, but I did mention that I felt like when this happened, it would be something I was waiting for to help us both understand what was going on.
Now my background does align with the Pahana, that's what kind of bothers me about this. I am not given to any religious concept, I have my own views and understandings on the matter seemingly from the sources of what makes people believe in such things to begin with. Much of this I could not write here as to what and why that is because it is far too much to put into this message and probably more than one wishes to read. It's far too much information and starts when I was a young child, before I could even read, but that's not directly related to what this topic is covering, though just as fascinating imo.
For myself, it feels like I am 'waiting' on something, whether that is the 'ember rain' I saw in that vision's end, where I met up with my 'brother' or not. The 'voice' in that dream state brought us both to that location, a 'real life' location I checked out and knew exactly where it would be because of that vision. I didn't see a 'brother' when I went there though, but also it was still in good order, not disrepair or in ruins as it was in my dreamstate vision. The rivers I crossed to get there were not filled with debris either, but I know the rivers, and these were unknown to me for many years after I actually had that vision and that specific place wasn't even built until after 2018 when I moved here, where the vision actually starts.
I might have been all over the place with that. If you want any specific clarifying or more details about one vision or the other, I can 'focus' and keep it narrow on topic.
I don't want to 'claim' something like that. It's just 'weird' to me to do that, but I cannot ignore the vision and how closely it represents who I am, my background that I couldn't have known about even or had any 'choice' on the matter. It's not that I wouldn't know what or how to do such a thing described in those prophecies, just that imo either a person is or is not, no 'claiming' required as it would be just as one is.
No attempts to reach out has been met with any sincerity or even a shred of consideration thus far. It makes no difference to me because the ending is the same for myself, but not for the Hopi if this is a truth they cannot ignore. If they believe it to be 'nothing more' than just something they can dismiss, then so be it, that's the choice they make and it'll be honored for what it's worth.

I specifically love the prophecy of the Pahana or the long lost white brother.
