The Nostradamus Prophecy

Born on December 14, 1503, in St. Remy de Provence, Michel de Nostradame, or Nostradamus, was a clairvoyant who used science to interpret his visions. He was often referred to as the prophet of doom because many of his visions were of death and war. The followers of the Nostradamus Prophecy claim that he predicted the rise of Hitler, the French Revolution, the Great Fire of London, and the tragic destruction of the space shuttle Discovery.

The Task of Nostradamus

In 1554, Nostradamus undertook the monumental task of writing a book about his prophecies. He worked day and night using books on the occult to guide his own writing. His main source of information and inspiration came from the book “De Mysteriis Egyptorum”. In the year 1555, the first part of his book entitled “Les Propheties” was completed and contained predictions from 1555 to his envisioned end of the world. Although the book became very popular in France and the rest of Europe, Nostradamus was never able to finish the project. He died in 1566.

The Visions of Nostradamus

Experts on Nostradamus believe that approximately 50% of his predictions have already taken place. Some of these predictions include his vision of the Antichrists. Researchers of Nostradamus agree that he accurately predicted two of the Antichrists, one being Hitler and the other, Napoleon. According to the Prophecy of Nostradamus, Quatrain 8:1, the first Antichrist would be named “PAU, NAY, OLORON”. This is an anagram for “Napaulon Roy”, with Roy meaning “king” in French. The second prediction in Quatrain 2:24 clearly spells out “Hister”, which most accept as meaning Hitler. Although these two predictions are clearly understood, his third Antichrist prediction is elusive and remains unsolved. Many individuals believe that the anagram for the third Antichrist is “Mabus”, and refers to the 21st century terrorist Osama Bin Laden, an assumption mainly based on the verse that reads, "Terror from the Sky" in the year 1999 and 7 months.

Putting Together the Pieces

The Nostradamus prophecies are difficult to interpret and have baffled many for centuries. Each vision should be seen as a puzzle piece that can only fit together with the whole. Some believe that when adequate work and reflection has been undertaken by individuals who have genuine concern for their world and its destiny, the Nostradamus Prophecy will speak clearly.
