Because the system I use is, thus far, only 71.6% to 92.7% accurate, and because new information may help make initial predictions more focused, the almanacs will be updated periodically as needed.
If a prediction is fulfilled you will see a news article (or news articles) that proves the event took place, along with a commentary by me, immediately beneath the prediction. If a prediction is close to being fulfilled you will be alerted by a link or links to related news articles.
NEW PREDICTION: 12/10/02 -- OK, there are two possibilities: another TWA 800 or 911 tragedy over metropolitan NYC (Long Island and Staten Island included in danger zone) or the second and last vector for the nuking of New York, the first one having been April 2002 (failed). One can easily connect both images, I suppose, if a plane is somehow involved in a nuclear terrorist act. In any event, if the Waldviertler prophecy of the nuclear destruction of Manhattan by terrorists is going to take place anytime soon, it should happen in July 2003. Note the peripheral events should all be here: war in the Middle East and troubles in the Balkans. I cannot currently come up with another base 7 vector for the nuclear destruction of NYC until February/March 2007.
Nostradamus may have described this holocaust in the following quatrain:
Quatrain 6.97
Access a Dream Window for more detailed information in the form of various visions by Mary Ann, Jennie M., Tom, Joseph Polise, Cindy, Tonya, CD, and myself. The following cities, for one reason or another, may also be in danger of nuclear terrorism in 2003: Chicago, Los Angeles (and/or Hollywood), Washington DC, Seattle, New York City, Boston, Buffalo, Kansas City, Oklahoma City, and Miami.
Dream about Destruction of New Jersey - A new dream about nuclear attacks on NYC, parts of New Jersey, and other US cities by Ile.
For a detailed account of the destruction of New York City by the Seer of Waldviertel, visit The War Room. According to the seer, in this first English translation of his prophecies, the cause will be nuclear terrorism by "psychopathic enemies." This and much more in "The War Room."
UPDATE (8/15/03): The bad news is that this blackout which has affected not only New York City, but the entire Northeastern US and part of Canada, may have been a "test" by terrorists of America's power grid vulnerablities in the northeast in anticipation of a horrendous terror attack in New York and possibly elsewhere in the region. At this writing no one knows for certain what caused this to happen, so I do not think terrorism (or at least a some type of terrorism planning) can be ruled out. The good news is that this blackout, the worst in US history it is now being reported, may be the major "thing" to happen to NYC around the projected month of July 2003 and not a nuclear terrorist attack. If that is the case, I cannot come up with a base 7 vector for a possible nuclear attack on NYC before February/March 2007. That would make it possible for a Third World War to drag out and not reach its worst point until as late as 2009. Alois Irlmaier's cryptic number "two eights and a nine" (889) might then mean that the Russian blitzkrieg of Europe does not happen until August 8, 2009.
Al Qaida claims responsibility for blackoutSPECIAL TO WORLD TRIBUNE.COM Monday, August 18, 2003
It was published as "the third communiqué by the "Brigades." In the first, they accepted responsibility for the downing of an airplane in Kenya. The second accepted responsibility for the Jakarta bombing of the Marriott hotel on August 5, 2003. The new communiqué says that in compliance with the orders of Osama bin Laden to strike at the American economy, the Brigades struck two important electricity supply targets on the East coast, according to the Middle East Media Research Institute. The Brigades say that they cannot reveal how they did it, because they will probably have to use the same method again soon. The communiqué also claimed that the operation was meant as a present for the Iraqi people. The following are excerpts from a report by the London-based Arabic daily Al-Hayat about the communiqué: [1] The Blackout was 'a Realization of Bin Laden's promise to offer the Iraqi people a present' "A communiqué
attributed to Al Qaeda claimed responsibility for the
power blackout that happened in the U.S. last Thursday,
saying that the brigades of Abu Fahes Al Masri had hit
two main power plants supplying the East of the U.S., as
well as major industrial cities in the U.S. and Canada,
'its ally in the war against Islam (New York and Toronto)
and their neighbors.' 'The Americans lived a black day they will never forget' "The statement, which Al-Hayat obtained from the website of the International Islamic Media Center, didn't specify the way the alleged sabotage was carried out. The communiqué read: 'let the criminal Bush and his gang know that the punishment is the result of the action, the soldiers of God cut the power on these cities, they darkened the lives of the Americans as these criminals blackened the lives of the Muslim people in Iraq, Afghanistan and Palestine. The Americans lived a black day they will never forget. They lived a day of terror and fear… a state of chaos and confusion where looting and pillaging rampaged the cities, just like the capital of the caliphate Baghdad, and Afghanistan and Palestine were. Let the American people take a sip from the same glass.' 'The U.S. will not live in peace until our conditions are met' "It added: 'we heard amazing statements made by the American and Canadian enemies which have nuclear physics universities and space agencies, that lightning hit and destroyed the two plants. And we are supposed to believe this nonsense. If the blackout occurred in one or two cities, their lie would have been credible. But the fact is that the blackout hit the entire East and part of Canada.' "The communiqué continued: 'one of the benefits of this strike is that the U.S. will not live in peace until our conditions are met, such as releasing all the detainees including Sheikh Omar Abdulrahman, and getting out of the land of the Muslims, including Jerusalem and Kashmir.' "The authors of the communiqué said that the strikes aimed at 'hitting the major pillar of the U.S. economy (the Stock Exchange)… [and] the UN, which is opposed to Islam, and is based in New York. It is a message to all the investors that the U.S. is no longer a safe country for their money, knowing that the U.S. economy greatly relies on the trust of the investor…' 'The gift of Sheikh Osama Bin Laden is on its way to the White House' "The communiqué mentioned that some economists said the blackout in the U.S. and Canada would cost the U.S. Treasury no less than ten billion U.S. dollars and in order to 'break the hearts of U.S. officials, just know that the cost paid by the Moujahideen to sabotage the power plants was a mere seven thousand dollars. Die of sorrow!' "The communiqué ended with: 'we tell the Muslims that this is not the awaited strike, but it is called the war of skirmishes (to drain the enemy), and that the American snakes are enormous and need to be consumed and weakened to be destroyed. We tell the people of Afghanistan and Kashmir that the gift of Sheikh Osama bin Laden is on its way to the White House; then the gift of Al Aqsa, and do we know what is the gift of Al Aqsa, where and when? The answer is what you are seeing!' |
COMMENT (8/19/03): It now appears my warning of a terrorist attack on New York City happening in July 2003 had some teeth in it after all. Right place, right time (only off by one month), and right general event (terrorism). Wrong on the specifics though. It was not another 9/11 attack or a nuclear attack. Then again, we have no way of knowing if this is only stage one of the operation and that the major attack -- another 9/11 event or worse -- may be only another month or two away.
Now you see how a CLOSE or PARTIAL FULFILLMENT works. Maybe. There is a problem.
This whole affair reminds me of another "terrorist attack" that occurred seven years ago: the explosion of TWA 800 over Long Island in July 1996 (the base 7 precedent for my NYC prediction). To this day we do not know for certain if the airliner was bombed or shot down by a shoulder-fired missile (terrorism) or if it was "an ignited spark in the fuel tank" (act of God, accident, human error). It is a controversy that continues, much like the death of Princess Diana. Personally, I believe TWA 800 was shot down by terrorists and that the Clinton Administration covered it up so that "retaliation" would not be an issue during the election that fall.
We have the same problem here: do we buy the terrorist claims and can terrorism be proven or will we be forced by the Bush Administration to accept the Great Blackout of 2003 as a technical fluke?
I say it was an act of terrorism or at least a preliminary part of a larger terrorist operation. The US government was way too quick to dismiss the blackout as being the work of terrorists. How could they know that so early when they couldn't even agree where the blackout originated (Ottawa, northern New York, NYC, Niagara Falls, Ohio, etc ...)?
Ergo, if Bush covers this up and refutes Al Qaeda claims, we may never know how right or how wrong I was about a terrorist attack against NYC around the merry month of July 2003.

COMMENT: It is difficult to know how to rate this prediction, especially since an airliner bombing over NYC or a nuclear terrorist attack of Mahattan is still possible this year. In terms of the "fear factor," the Great Blackout of the Northeastern US, with NYC being the first major focus of the event, was exactly the sort of event one might expect to see proceed an actual nuclear attack. The sight of this on television for those of us in small pockets of the Northeast who were not affected was pretty unnerving. I half expected to see the news networks' broadcast signal to NYC vanish at any moment. I believe that this was a terrorist attack on the power grid. Al Qaeda did take credit and afterwards most media coverage of the event just sort of trailed off into oblivion. Of course, much of the media is government-controlled, so it's obvious they didn't want Americans focused on this event after the Al Qaeda claims surfaced. We do know that there was an explosion reported, but obviously not confirmed, at one of the major power centres in the East. Of course, cyber-terror can't be ruled out. The timing of this event was pretty much on target, so I feel we can call this one "close" -- which means only partial credit for a rating in this case. Keep all eyes on what, if anything, happens in NYC this year. It still may be that this prediction will be fulfilled up to 14 months late.
PRELIMINARY RATING: +0.6
The Second Millennium has been an age of
Marian visions -- the most famous of these occurring at Fatima in
1917. The 21st Century will usher in a new era. Was God's plan
for the world frustrated by the death of Princess Diana on August
31, 1997? (I will examine this possibility in a future book.)
Visitors have not exactly been flocking to the Spencer estate in
droves as many believed that they would. A January 9, 2001 update
indicates that this may change during the fifth or sixth Althorp
summer in July/August 2002 or July/August 2003
when
Diana's apparition is witnessed by hundreds of spectators. Soon
hundreds of thousands will flock to observe her flame-like image
hovering above her grave on the tiny island where she is buried.
Tears of joy and recognition will roll down their faces. At that
time, she will impart a special message to the world.
Nostradamus foresaw this event as well.
Quatrain 4.24
Sacred ground, especially from Nostradamus' strict European Christian perspective, is usually burial ground: earth that has been consecrated by the Church or by a Christian ceremony made suitable for burial of the dead. Thus the "lady" whose voice is discerned coming from the ground is dead. Therefore, what we are experiencing in this quatrain is truly a miraculous event. A woman of tremendous importance, adored and loved in death as well as in life, returns to communicate a message to her worshippers and to the entire world.
Sadly, there will be an unfortunate and unintended reaction to this event. Many Christian priests and pastors will dismiss the miracle as a hoax or as being of diabolical origin. They will not believe that this lady's appearance has been made possible by the grace of God. The reigning pope of that time will also share his Protestant brothers' skepticism. The backlash this causes will be horrendous. Many will be angered, leading to deadly feuds between the churches and against the churches. Many "sole ones" (monks, priests) will be killed.
But this is not what the "divine voice" will wish. The people will dishonour the woman who exalted love above all other things. If Diana does return, listen -- do not judge.
Note: This prediction appeared in my manuscript, Nostradamus and the Final Age, but was withheld from this site until 7/2/99.
UPDATE (1/11/03): This prediction is carried over from 2002 because there was a third and final vector for June 2003 arrived at in a January 9, 2001 update. Again, because June is so close to the July/August 2003 Althorp season, I would suggest that July/August 2003 may be closer to the mark. The May/June 2001 and June 2002 vectors, indicating an apparition of Diana during the summer of 2001 or 2002, failed to occur.
This is the last remaining vector I can calculate for this event using base 7 numerology. If it fails to occur in 2003, this does not mean it will not happen in a later year -- only that I cannot determine when that year will be. If one reads what is prophesied in Quatrain 4.24 carefully and its far-reaching impact on world events, it is very difficult to think of another dead woman of importance who it might apply to other than the late Princess Diana -- at least in our time. The only other answer is that it is to be applied to someone much farther ahead in the future.
Read the secret known until now only by Cheiro, Jeane Dixon, John the Revelator, the architects of the Pyramid of Cheops, and the king of prophets ... Nostradamus! Be happy and confident in a new Revelation.
UPDATE (8/18/03): My apologies, but it should have been apparent to me that one last vector does exist for the Diana apparition prophecy and that is on or near the seventh anniversary of her death in August 2004. It is so obvious, but I was using other criterion to determine the 2001-2003 vectors. Such an event really cannot happen much later than that ... I have my reasons for believing so and hopefully will relate them in the near future. Obviously, too, this could impact the timing of the Nostradamus quatrain immediately below this presentation.
RATING: + 0
The following prediction is not base 7-derived but is solely an interpretation of Nostradamus' Quatrain 9.74. Its success or failure has no effect whatsoever on my personal system of prediction. It could occur any year during the July/August period (the Althorp season) or at any future time when Diana's memory is venerated once more. I believe it will come to pass eventually.
Quatrain 9.74
Fertsod is translated as Sodom by commentators Edgar Leoni (1961) and Erika Cheetham (1973). Sodom, therefore, may stand for Saddam. Saddam City lies in the southern suburbs of Baghdad. The "homicide" could refer to many things: an act of terrorism or military aggression by Iraq, the assassination or attempted assassination of an Israeli or an Arab leader, an attempt at "ethnic cleansing" in the Kurdish north, or the bombing of Baghdad itself. If so, this air campaign will be the most horrendous attack thus far to be visited on the Iraqi people. Their "dead bodies" will be committed to Vulcan, the god of fire, indicating massive air strikes. The reference to "oxen" plowing un-slaughtered suggests the heavy burden of U.N. sanctions will still be in place. As for the timing, Nostradamus provides us with a stunning clue: it will happen during a season when the memory of the late Princess Diana is honoured.
This occurs each year between July 1 and August 30 when the Spencer family estate at Althorp is opened to the public. If the prophecy concerning a miraculous appearance of Diana does occur in summer 2001, 2002, or 2003 this could be the specific meaning behind "a return to the honours of Diana." In that case, this quatrain could be describing an event that will occur around the same time as the Althorp miracle: a catastrophic air campaign conducted by Britain and the United States against Baghdad -- an event so horrendous, so criminal, that the spirit of Diana may cry out against the spilling of innocent blood. Alternatively, Iraq's crime may be so horrid and unpardonable that the Lady of the Lake will lament the victims and condemn Saddam's cruel regime.
It certainly does appear that this verse, Quatrain 9.74, is intimately related to Quatrain 4.24 -- the Vision at Althorp.
COMMENT (10/20/03): This could be the start of a new season of Diana -- a time of re-examining the circumstances of the late princess's death and the very real possibility that we shall soon know the identity of her killer or killers. It further amplifies her uncanny mystical abilities in life -- added to her interest in the supernatural and her ability to heal the sick, it now appears that she was able to see into her own future. Now is the time for us once again to reflect on Diana's life and the wonderful future the world was robbed of on the night of her all-too tragic and premature death.
It is no coincidence that as this revelation of Diana's letter surfaces, Saddam City is again living up to Nostradamus' description of it being a city of "homicide." It is now the scene of daily acts of terrorism and attacks on US soldiers, and the gathering place, a capital if you will, for an increasing number of Iraqi Shiites who follow one man: the young, firebrand Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr who seeks to turn Iraq into an Islamic state patterned after Iran. Soon it may be necessary to commit Baghdad once more into the hands of the fire god Vulcan.
COMMENT (10/27/03): I believe we can now agree that as interest in the late Princess Diana escalates, so too does the "homicide" in Baghdad and its suburb Saddam City.

'Should Be Questioned over Diana's Plot Claims' - January 7, 2004.
FINAL COMMENT (1/16/04): This is an actual Nostradamus prophecy in progress ... a progress that may continue for a number months or years. There can be little doubt that as renewed interest in the life and death of Diana builds, so does the mayhem and "homicide" in Baghdad. The fullest realisation of Quatrain 9.74 may yet be in the future.
Because my base 7 system was not used in regards to this prophecy, it will not be rated. Only base 7 predictions I have personally made are rated for accuracy.
Monitoring of this quatrain as it applies to 2004 continues on 2004 (Part Two). No further updates will appear here unless it is for display purposes (such as a slide show or special news page to reduce used space). All additional, relevent news reports will appear on 2004 (Part Two). This quatrain is also discussed on Revelation.
"No question that the Shiites are taking control of Iraq, little by little, paving the way for massive Iranian intervention. This will lead to war between US troops stationed in Iraq and the Persian Gulf and Iran, with Turkey likely attacked as well over the fate of the Kurdish north (and for being a US and Nato ally). Then Assad may make his move against Israel and the US, triggering the war prophesied by Jeremiah and in Nostradamus' Alus quatrain ..." - M McClellan

NEW PREDICTION: 5/30/03 -- I have warned of this war often on the Email Forums, the War Room (Part One), and other pages. In Islamic prophecy, this is called the War in Byzantium -- an event also mentioned often in the quatrains of Nostradamus. With all the "Planet X" nonsense and a multitude of emails to answer, I am only getting around to posting this now, but most of you know I have held this opinion since well before the Iraq War began in March.
Whether or not a post-war Iraq becomes pacified, a new danger will come from subversive elements moving into Iraq from neighbouring Iran. The Iraqi mullah, Mohammed Baqir al-Hakim, that is so popular with the Shiites in Iraq is paving the way for an Iraqi Islamic state similar to the one in Iran. The hope is to turn Iraq into a part of greater Iran. Iran also has the strongest pro-Iranian Kurd faction in power in the north: the PUK (Patriotic Union of Kurdistan).
I believe that Iran will try to stir up trouble against the US occupation force. In fact it may be the Iranians rather than pro-Saddam loyalists that are responsible for the lastest fighting. I calculate that around August 2003 Iran and pro-Iranian forces in Iraq will go to war with the US troops in Iraq. This will bring in Turkey on the side of the US, but fighting will also break out between Turks and Iranians over the future of northern Iraq (Kurdistan).
A war with Iran would be very difficult for the US and would likely drag out for some time. Complicating the situation, Syria, an ally of Iran, might attack the US from the west and launch missile strikes against Israel and Turkey. Fighting between the US and Iran would likely spread to the waters of the Persian Gulf and the oil fields of Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain, and Oman.
Iran has the most formidable military in the entire Middle East, due to its inclusion of WMD. However, their conventional forces are also quite state-of-the-art. They have been quietly assembling their weapons of war since the early 1990s to become the most powerful Islamic military power in the world.
I have often mentioned the danger of the year 2006, in part, due to the fact that that is the projection of when Iran will feel it has attained enough of a force to engage the United States in a war and possibly win. It also projects it will have full ICBM capability by that time to strike a target anywhere in the world.
Also, Iran has a very mighty military ally: RUSSIA. Unlike Iraq or even Syria, war with Iran means war with Russia. Many people are not aware of this.
It is a no-brainer, really, that war between Iran and the US IN IRAQ will lead to war between Iran and Turkey. This, in turn, will lead to war between Russia and Nato. World War III.
To view a personal vision by me that may relate to this war, open either Dream Window 1 or Dream Window 3. There is also a time line of events in the Master Dream Window where this conflict might be plotted.
UPDATE (7/6/03): Clearly, it is possible that Turkey too could initially become a belligerent country regarding the fate of Iraq. I never disputed that possibility. However I also believe that, in the end, the West and the US will take Turkey's side. There are just too many Nostradamus prophecies that show Turkey pitted against Iran and both Turkey and Egypt overwhelmed by enemy Islamic armies.
Of course anything could happen, I suppose.
America could become an ally of Iran if a democratic revolution should be successful and cause the overthrow of the mullahs. In an alternative future America could ally with some of the very nations it now considers as adversaries. One also can not rule out a 3 year and 7 month period of global policing by the United States and Russia as prophesied by Nostradamus (it hasn't happened yet).
I would remind many students of Islamic prophecy, however, that the "War in the Byzantine Empire" is an "end of time" prophecy and not merely a "latter days" prophecy. There is a difference. Bible scholars also should take note. I believe the "latter days," the final era of human history, are about to begin, but will last until around the year AD 2242 or AD 2243. That is another 240 years away. An "end of time" prophecy would be about events occurring during the last 7 or so years of this final age (roughly AD 2235 to AD 2243). So, the "War in the Byzantine Empire," and many Biblical "end of time" prophecies as well, can only happen now if Nostradamus was wrong about the date of Armageddon being around AD 2242-43 and the time for the return of Jesus is actually very close at hand. Of course, that would tend to make Nostradamus a false prophet (and this is always a possibility).
Personally, I believe Nostradamus had a faith in God that made him a man of great conviction. I think he believed what he wrote. Furthermore, in my book, Nostradamus and the Final Age, I demonstrate what could be the only way he saw our future after the coming World War III. Sadly, our current time and the Third World War itself remain among the scrambled verses and are subject to interpretation (which is why my interpretations of his quatrains for the current time are no better than anyone else's). But what happens after the war and for the next 230 to 240 years is written in stone. And one of the keys to unlocking that future blueprint lies in his Epistle to Henry II. There are other keys to be found in Nostradamus and by other sources, but the Epistle is a very important one. I believe I have uncovered and presented the future blueprint as Nostradamus believed it to be in my book. However, even if this is exactly what he believed would happen, he could still have been wrong.
For Jesus said He will come like a thief in the night and no man shall know the hour.
Geostrategy-Direct (9.15.04) - There is a secret war along the Iraqi border with Syria, and the U.S. military isn't doing well in it despite having deployed its best forces in Iraq, the 1st Marine Expeditionary Force, to attack Al Qaida-inspired insurgents. This is because the Marines have had almost no help from local Iraqi security officials ...

COMMENT: The cross
border attacks on Syria, the so-called "secret war"
with Syria, including insurgents from Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, and
elsewhere has shown one direction the war in Iraq may soon take.
Likewise, the Shiite uprisings under Moqtada al-Sadr, and
reported infiltrations in the south and north by Iranian "mercenaries,"
gives one another perspective on how this war may expand. The
ultimate goal for Iraq by the mullahs in Iran can be seen to the
immediate right:
Obviously this will not happen without a fight -- a major fight. I thought this expansion of the war into Syria and Iran would happen long before now, obviously. Still, current indications are that I will eventually be correct. But for a rating of + 1.0, it must happen by December 31, 2004. It is still a terribly close prediction.
