The main prophecy is of course that of the Chosen One as written by Master Fae Coven. But the same prophecy, or really different versions of the prophecy exist in the tale of the "Ghost Hand" on Nelvaan, with the Heinsnake Cult, and a few others.
I guess you could consider the Tho Yor arrival a prophecy, and a few other religious ones. I don't think there are that many prophecies about people who aren't Anakin, but then I don't really care about those prophecies, so it is what it is.
Anyways, @OP:
I'd say the easiest way to describe it is that if the universe is a river, then the will of the force is the current. Sailing on that river, you can make all sorts of twists and turns along the way, but no matter what the current will pull you towards the same destination. That isn't to say that everything is set in stone from the outset, but rather that certain things won't change in the long run.
If Anakin had never been found on Tatooine, and spent the rest of his days as a slave mechanic, that just means that Palpatine would have died in a freak podracer accident during his vacation to Mos Eisley.

Anakin WAS the Chosen One, though. The Force is a "paradox" in the sense that it has a will which WILL come to pass, but the Force needs some sort of connection between the physical realm and the realm of life to cause that to happen. More often than not, these are sentient beings, like Anakin Skywalker.
As for the Sith'ari prophecy, it's not really, real. It's just a vague legend, which fits the stories of many sith, examples being Bane, Sidious, and Adas. It's possible that one of these guys were the actual sithari, but I'm willing to say that it's just some story someone made up.
