The act of predicting or revealing what will happen in the future; a prediction or prophecy.
From foretell + -ing (a suffix that forms gerunds and present participles). The -ing suffix turns the verb 'foretell' into a noun describing the action itself.
Foretelling is interesting because it assumes someone can actually know the future, which science shows is impossible—yet humans have always been drawn to it, from tea leaf readings to tarot cards to statistical predictions!
