Nostradamus
Biography
Nostradamus was born Michele de Nostradame in 1503, in the south of France in Saint-Remy-de-Provence. Nostradame’s grandfather, Guy Gassonet, had converted to Catholicism a half century earlier and changed the family name to Nostradame, in part to avoid persecution during the Inquisition. Little is known of his childhood, but evidence indicates he was very intelligent as he quickly advanced through school.
During this time, young Nostradame was taught the rudiments of Latin, Greek, Hebrew and mathematics. It’s believed that his grandfather also introduced him to the ancient rites of Jewish tradition and the teachings of astrology, giving Nostradame his first exposure to the idea of the heavens and how they might drive human destiny.
When Michele was 35 years old, he made a careless comment about a statue of the virgin Mary. He was charged with heresy by the Inquisition and fled for several years to Italy, Greece and Turkey. During his travels he visited ancient mystery schools, it’s believed that it was during this time that Nostradamus experienced a psychic awakening. One of the legends of Nostradamus says that, during his travels in Italy, he came upon a group of Franciscan monks, identifying one as the future Pope. The monk, called Felice Peretti, was eventually ordained Pope Sixtus V in 1585, fulfilling the prediction of Nostradamus.
Feeling he’d stayed away long enough to be safe from the Inquisition, Nostradamus returned to France to resume his practice of treating plague victims. In 1547, he settled in his hometown of Salon-de-Provence and married a rich widow named Anne Ponsarde. Together they had six children—three boys and three girls. He made a living as a travelling fortune teller. He used the persons birth date, time and location to match with the position of the planets. This is the root of modern horoscopes, star signs and astrology. He also gazed into flames, a belief at the time is that visions could come to you that way.
He wrote a book of prophesies that were popular at the time:
Prediction:
The blood of the just will commit a fault at London,
Burnt through lightning of twenty threes the six:
The ancient lady will fall from her high place,
Several of the same sect will be killed.
What happened: This prophecy is often linked with the devastating Great Fire of London.
In regards to the date, 20 times three is 60. Add six to that, and you've got 66 — or the year '66. London's infamous three-day blaze began on September 2, 1666.The fire wasn't set off by lightning, however. A hot, arid summer and a spark in the bakery of Thomas Farriner on Pudding Lane set the stage for the inferno.
Peasant and middle class deaths were not recorded at the time, according to the Smithsonian Magazine, but it's likely that hundreds or even thousands of people perished in the flames.
In regards to the "same sect" portion of the quatrain, Londoners blamed the conflagration on Catholics and the Dutch, and a number of lynchings and attacks ensued as the city smoldered, the BBC reported. But the members of the "same sect" are also mentioned in conjunction with "the ancient lady," which could be interpreted to refer to London itself. London actually grew in prominence after the fire, becoming the center of the industrial revolution and the biggest city in the world by 1825, 159 years later.
Prediction:
From the enslaved populace, songs,
Chants and demands
While princes and lords are held captive in prisons.
These will in the future by headless idiots
Be received as divine prayers.
What happened: Starting with the storming of the Bastille in 1789, the French Revolution saw the overthrowal of the monarchy and the establishment of a new republic. The Third Estate (enslaved populace) took control of Paris and forced their demands on royalty (princes and lords). Ultimately, the revolution turned bloody. Nobles and commoners alike were declared traitors to the revolution and beheaded at the guillotine (headless idiots).
(Hussite Wars, Haiti Revolution, Russian Revolution)
Prediction:
The lost thing is discovered, hidden for many centuries.
Pastor will be celebrated almost as a God-like figure.
This is when the moon completes her great cycle,
But by other rumors he shall be dishonored.
What happened: Much of the excitement surrounding this prediction is based on the fact that "pasteur" is the French word for "pastor" or "shepherd." Louis Pasteur (Pastor will be celebrated) is credited with discovering microbial decay (lost thing is discovered, hidden for many centuries). His breakthrough is credited with saving countless lives over the course of history.
(Nicholas Steno, Gregor Mendel, Copernicus)
Prediction:
From the depths of the West of Europe,
A young child will be born of poor people,
He who by his tongue will seduce a great troop;
His fame will increase towards the realm of the East.
Also ...
Beasts ferocious with hunger will cross the rivers,
The greater part of the battlefield will be against Hister.
Into a cage of iron will the great one be drawn,
When the child of Germany observes nothing.
What happened: On April 20, 1889 Adolf Hitler was born in Austria, which is in Western Europe. But his family was middle class, not impoverished. Hitler did rise to power in part due to his oratory abilities (by his tongue will seduce), and did initiate WWII (a great troop) by invading Poland. Some Nostradamus supporters have posited that Hister is a mispelling of Hitler, but it's actually the Latin term for the Danube.
(Jan Zizka, Martin Luther, Jean Calvin also fits)
Prediction:
Near the gates and within two cities
There will be scourges the like of which was never seen,
Famine within plague, people put out by steel,
Crying to the great immortal God for relief.
What happened: In early August 1945 the United States dropped two atomic weapons on the island of Japan, on Hiroshima and Nagasaki (within two cities). The cities were devastated, and many survivors of the blast suffered from radiation poisoning (crying to the great immortal God for relief). In the wake of the war, Japan also went through a food shortage crisis (famine within plague).
(Twin cities Saigon and Cholon in Vietnam and the firebombing of napalm.)
Prediction:
The great man will be struck down in the day by a thunderbolt,
An evil deed foretold by the bearer of a petition.
According to the prediction, another falls at night time.
Conflict at Reims, London and a pestilence in Tuscany.
What happened: President John Kennedy (great man) received numerous death threats (petition) over the course of his presidency. While visiting Dallas on November 22, 1963, the president was gunned down (thunderbolt). The assassination shocked and devastated the nation. His brother Bobby Kennedy was later assassinated just after midnight on June 5, 1968 (another falls at night time).
(Could be: Malcom X received death threats, was shot with a shotgun, Malcolm X was also assassinated and died almost exactly as night fell. Protests worldwide.)
Prediction:
Earthshaking fire from the center of the Earth
Will cause tremors around the New City.
Two great rocks will war for a long time,
Then Arethusa will redden a new river.
What happened: On the morning of September 11, 2001, the two towers (two great rocks) of the World Trade Center in New York City (New City) collapsed after al-Qaeda terrorists crashed hijacked passenger planes into the buildings. Nostradamus' prediction about "fire from the center of the Earth" doesn't connect with anything pertaining to 9/11.
(Could be: Auckland, NEW Zealand volcano, lava flow is the red river. 1886 Mount Tarawera. Killed over 100 people. Largest eruption in New Zealand in recorded history.)
