prophetically
Like a seer
In a manner that predicts or foreshadows future events.
Someone who speaks prophetically makes statements that later prove accurate: She prophetically warned that the housing market would collapse.
The word can describe both genuine foresight and statements that only seem predictive in retrospect.
