I believe in Irlmaier prophecies and vision, maybe not 100 % as we shouldn't because even approved apparitions and private revelations are not necessary for salvation. But also it wrong to ignore tears of Our Lady. I agree with late bishop Williamson, but I don't believe in Garabandal apparitions. Nevertheless, Irlmeier was a unique man with a very rare gift. He didn't make money of it like those in Medjugorje. There is a prophetic consensus for chastitesments and timeline of events, at least generally speaking. He just told more details, like stigmatist Marie Julie Jahenny. They both said that there will be a WWIII during which will happen three days of darkness. And she was approved by the local bishop, never condemned until today. When will it happen, soon but only God knows for sure. Something geeat around 2029. or 2030. will happen, maybe The Great Reset, digital currency, universal basic income, it will last for a short time.

There is a blog about angellic pontiff and great monarch prophecies, with a lot of information. Some of the same prophecies go back to the 4th or 5th century, burning plague is mentioned in the Old Testament, I belive it was prophet Isaiah.

Watch and pray and do the 5 first Satrudays devotion, also 9 first Fridays devotion if possible. Have blessed 100 % beeswax candles just in case, check windows. If only I could know what kind of paper or foil should I buy and where...I need to change at least one window...

If only blessed candles will burn at the event of the Three Days of Darkness, how does one light those candles? With blessed matches? Blessed BICS lighters? And does the prophecy really state 100% beeswax?

I notice that some of those who disregard the stigmatist Marie Julie Jahenny (whose writings were approved by her local bishop, the Bishop of Nantes in 1875) are on board with a Catholic layman who was not a stigmatist, not approved by his local bishop and not known for his holiness.

You could use aluminum foil to black out the window. There will be advance warnings.

I'm not sure who you're talking about, but I find Marie Julie Jahenny quite credible also.  Of course, despite what might appear to be preternatural endorsement of Marie Julie Jahenny, even then there really are only two categories:  approved by the Church and not approved by the Church.  I'm told that Clemente Dominguez manifested stigmata at some point, and you may recall the case of that possessed nun from the Middle Ages who exhibited not only stigmata but may other remarkable abilities, including a Virgin Birth that nobody could debunk.  She too had a major reputation for holiness.  So absent official and formal approval by and recognition from the Church, it's all just a matter of private prudent judgment.  Nobody's required to believe in either one of them, and the default attitude of the Church has always been one of extreme skepticism ... but that's mostly because the Church's approval would influence millions, while my opinion or that of some other individual will likely persuade ... no one at all.  So it's not forbidden to consider them credible either if there's been no condemnation by the Church or at least some credible (informal) authorities.  Indeed, some of the earliest canonizations, until the Church formalize the process, were indeed "grass-roots" types of movements.

I saw one obnoxious writeup that smeared Marie Julie Jahenny that someone was pushing here, and I debunked it completely, where this individual was alleging that she had proposed heresies and a couple other nonsensical objections ... you know, from the same types that declared Pius IX and St. Pius X heretical AntiPopes as well.

See, this is certainly a more balanced approach.  Nobody would find fault with anyone who did NOT find Irlmaier credible, and yet it's not forbidden to find him credible either.  If someone has legitimate reason to doubt him, that's fine, but this bizarre hostility and ranting and streams of insults against those of us who consider him credible.

I find Irlmaier credible for the following reasons:
1) he was well known to and associated with priests, and was not condemned, nor were people forbidden to consult with him
2) he was an extremely simple man, a one "in whom there is no guile", poorly educated, humble, even a bit strange-looking -- those are always the types God uses to manifest his gifts, lest people attribute whatever He wants to share to the natural abilities of the individual
3) he did not profit from it financially ... and it did become a burden for him, having to spend hours each day dealing with the public who came to see him
4) I've not seen any harm he's done, either by theological error (in fact, no theological statements whatsoever) or morally
5) there's a ton of "I don't now" and "I'm not sure what I see" in his statements, where if he were a charlatan you'd expect a lot less of that
6) he made some predictions that would have seemed bizarre in his day, but today we know exactly what he's talking about, such as people staring at and even talking to these colorful little handheld devices.  It would take some strange imagination to just invent something like that, and why would you if you think it might put people off due to the strangeness of it ... if you were a charlatan

Now, even the most credible ones such as Mary of Agreda, Catherine Emmerich ... while being possessed of great virtue and being entirely sincere, there can always be some blur between what's objectively transmitted and the individual's reception and interpretation of it.  Could be that they're describing something and taking some (speculative) guesses and engaging in all manner of interpretation.  Recall how a picture is worth a thousand words.  They could have watched a scene that took 4-5 seconds, but so much happened in it that it might take pages of description to get it all, and that's where there's room for some error, misinterpretation, etc.  I'm sure you've all read novelists who have taken 3-4 pages to describe something that undoubtedly would have taken less than 30 seconds to transpire.
