prophesier
One foretelling events
A prophesier is one who prophesies—someone who predicts future events or speaks as if divinely inspired.
The word is a less common alternative to prophet, carrying the same sense but emphasizing the act of prophesying rather than the role: The prophesier warned of coming disasters.
It can describe anyone making predictions, serious or not.
