Mat's not actually going to take the moons out of the sky with his hands.
Thom isn't actually going to reach into a fire for Moiraine's keisera.
In other words, it's silly to think every prophecy/foretelling/vision has to be taken literally. There would be no confusion over what prophecies mean if that was the case.
I'm not saying it's silly to believe what you believe, just that your reasoning in the above reply is flawed.
It's pretty clear, IMO, that when a prophecy says the blind one stands on his own grave, and then from Rand's PoV it's stated specifically that he sees again after standing on his own grave, the prophecy has been fulfilled.

That would be a good twist to the prophecy

I think that Egwene's new mental balance somewhat throws off your reading.
