Death is one of those subjects that stirs both fear and curiosity. Even though medicine, theology, and philosophy have long been fascinated by the end of life, no one has ever offered undeniable proof of what really happens when we die—or whether death is even the end at all.
This mystery also drew the attention of Bulgarian clairvoyant and healer Vangelia Pandeva Dimitrova, better known as Baba Vanga (†85). Famous not only for her predictions but also for her healing work, she often spoke about death and what it might actually look like.
For some, the idea of death is terrifying. For others, strangely fascinating. Maybe even both at once. The final moments of life—and whatever might follow—remain unanswered questions. Still, many who claim to have returned “from the other side” after a near-death experience describe similar sensations: an overwhelming light that brings peace, calm, and bliss.
Interestingly, people who go through clinical death often report floating above their own body, watching themselves from a distance. Those who experience this tend to lose their fear of dying. Patterns do emerge, though not always the familiar “tunnel of light”—sometimes the signs are different, even surprising.
Baba Vanga herself described death in an unexpectedly comforting way. In her visions, she said there was nothing frightening about it.
“Why are you afraid of death? It’s beautiful,” she reportedly said. “I see it as a joyful young woman with light hair flowing down. Why say that death is evil? It isn’t. I see it as a fair-haired woman, holding a razor like an officer.”
According to Vanga, the soul itself does not die. Only the spirits of the wicked are denied ascent—they are not reborn. Reincarnation, she explained, exists, but not for everyone. Only the good return to Earth.
In her prophecies, she described death as the end only for the physical body. The soul, she believed, continues its journey, growing and evolving through stages: first as a simple person, then as a student, later as a scholar, perhaps even a scientist or a leader. To her, this was the soul’s natural path of development.
Baba Vanga’s prophecies drew worldwide attention—she was believed to have foreseen the outbreak of World War II, the division of Czechoslovakia, the Chernobyl disaster, and even health troubles for U.S. President Donald Trump. She is also said to have predicted the exact time of her own death. Yet, among all her dramatic visions, one of the most memorable is her serene view of death: not as something to fear, but as a passage into something greater.
