Shamans Make Predictions on Clinton
Wednesday, December 31, 1998; 8:30 p.m. EST
LIMA, Peru (AP) -- President Clinton will survive the sex scandal hounding him and serve
out his full term, Andean soothsayers predicted Wednesday.
The shamans, descendants of the mighty Inca empire that once ruled Peru, said they based
their predictions on visions brought on by drinking a brew made from a jungle vine, a
hallucinogen they say has curative, religious and extrasensory powers.
''Clinton will survive, but Monica (Lewinsky) will suffer because she writes a book and the
truth of it will be challenged,'' said Juan Osco, 45, after he spat a herb mixture over photos of
Clinton, Lewinsky and other famous figures.
The ceremony involving eight soothsayers atop a hill overlooking Lima takes place each year
to bless the new year and appease the god Apu, who they say inhabits the hill. |
