In the 16th century, there lived a great French doctor and occultist named Nostradamus. He was most famous for a series of prophesies written in quatrains, or rhyming sets of four verses. However, he rose to fame by writing almanacs that included horoscopes and other astrological insights. Royals and elites from all over Europe wrote to him, asking to have their fortunes read. Nostradamus claimed that he was no prophet to protect himself from the Catholic Inquisition, which would’ve seen such actions as heretical. To further protect himself from religious persecution, his quatrains were written in a mishmash of languages and incredibly vague to prevent accusations of using dark or evil powers to see the future. However, many of predictions have foretold events all over the Old World. For example, he successfully predicted the death of King Henry II of France. He stated that King Henry II would be killed in a duel. Nostradamus was very close to the French Royal Family and he greatly worried Queen Catherine de’ Medici. She summoned him in 1556 to discuss his predictions. However, in 1559, King Henry II died in a jousting accident. Nostradamus also predicted that a fire would sweep through London in ’66. Come 1666, the Great Fire of London would ravage the central zone of the city. Nostradamus is also credited with predicting the French Revolution, the Napoleonic Wars, and the rise of Hitler. One of his great warnings was of a Muslim invasion into Europe, lead by the Anti-Christ. His contemporaries believed this to be a warning about the Ottoman Empire, but the empire collapsed before any such military operation. However, some of his predictions have yet to happen. For example, he has told of a being from the East that will come to Europe and vanquish evil, which aligns with the Indian prophesy of Kalki, 10th Avatar of Vishu. The Hindu holy text Srimad Bhagavata states that Kalki will end the Kali Yuga, destroy the corrupt and the evildoers, and usher in a new age of goodness, justice, and piety. Nostradamus also predicts that floods will ravage the Earth and a new aquatic empire will rise to power during this time. Perhaps a hint about rising sea levels and warning of a new world government? However, Nostradamus’s most famous eschatological prophesy stated that a great comet of rock and iron (which sounds more like a asteroid to me) will strike the Earth and cause a great calamity that will end all life. His prophesies should not be discounted. Future diviners and soothsayers have referenced his work. I personally have not read all his prophesies and I wonder if he could’ve predicted IridivmTrvth.com all those years ago. Probably not, since his fortunes mostly revolved around Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East.
