The Cacique Cobra Coral Foundation claims it can control the weather – and a wealthy businessman reportedly hired them for Prince William and Prince Harry’s weddings
Spirit who ‘controls the weather’ claims to have cleared skies for Royal weddings
One organisation claims it can control the weather and make dramatic alterations on demand, boasting strong connections to British events.
The Cacique Cobra Coral Foundation is a South American group that bills itself as esoteric-scientific and insists it can alter climate patterns through the spirit of the Cacique (a Taino language term meaning ‘indigenous leader’), as channelled through medium Adelaide Scritori, the organisation’s present head.
Its tale weaves together religious convictions, media attention, and a string of agreements and invitations that crossed continents, even reaching the Royal family.
According to its official website, the foundation’s purpose is to “minimise catastrophes that can occur due to the imbalances caused by man in nature”.
The group’s origins, however, stretch back much further than its current medium, Adelaide reveals, reports the Express.
She claims that upon her birth, both her father and herself received communications from the Cacique’s spirit, which she alleges had previously been in contact with Galileo Galilei and Abraham Lincoln.
The foundation’s fame, however, soared in the 1980s, when Adelaide and her husband, Osmar Santos, began presenting weather intervention proposals to local and international governmental organisations. It wasn’t long before The Guardian ran two pieces about the spirit in 1987 – one detailing the foundation’s offer of assistance to Margaret Thatcher to ease a brutal winter, and the other recounting a proposition to Iraq’s Saddam Hussein in which they offered wind and rain in the nation in return for a ceasefire.
Thatcher is said to have ignored the proposal, whilst Hussein would have politely declined it. It was enough to spark British curiosity. In 2011, during Prince William and Princess Catherine’s nuptials, respected newspaper Folha de São Paulo reported that Adelaide Scritori had been employed by a wealthy businessman to travel to London and “keep the rain away from the wedding venue”.
Several years later, during Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan’s 2018 ceremony, the same occurred, and Adelaide was positioned in Windsor to supposedly help with the weather. Following her Royal assignment, the medium then proceeded to work on the Gulf of Genoa and the Cannes Film Festival.
Nevertheless, the Foundation’s supporters are not confined to the UK. FCCC claims to have been approached by numerous governments in crisis.
During nuclear tensions in Asia, Japan is said to have requested assistance in bringing rain – to disperse chemical residue in the event of a potential North Korean strike, according to co-founder Osmar Santos. The group has reportedly been involved in similar situations before, such as during the Gulf War in 1991 and on multiple occasions in China, where they claim to have helped clear polluted air through targeted rainfall.
The foundation’s influence extends to its home country too. In fact, it was contracted by the Brazilian state of Santa Catarina in 1985 due to recurrent floods, and by the city of Brasilia during its water crisis in 2017. The FCCC is also a regular feature at every edition of the Rock in Rio festival, despite lacking formal scientific recognition. The couple insist they don’t charge for any of their interventions, as they operate as a non-governmental organisation.
