The major prophecy pages of my site, otherwise known as the Almanacs, feature predictions I have arrived at using my own personal systems of divination. In a number of instances, these predictions are supported by prophecies from other sources: Nostradamus, the Bible, Edgar Cayce, and others.
This page features prophecies by Nostradamus that may be on the road to being fulfilled or perhaps have already been fulfilled.

NEW
MABUS ALERT: SADDAM'S EXECUTION
COULD BE TRIGGER FOR NUCLEAR WAR!

Quatrain 2.70
The dart from the sky will make its
journey,
Death while speaking: a great execution:
The stone in the tree, the proud nation brought down,
Human mist, the purged monster to make expiation.

By Michael W. McClellan
January 4, 2007 (3:35 AM EST), UPDATED January 20, 2007 (5:34 AM EST): I was looking over the recording of the execution of Saddam Hussein and noticed that the trap was sprung when he was in mid-sentence saying a prayer. He literally died while speaking. This caused me to recall another phrase: "a great execution." Then I realised these phrases appeared in a Nostradamus quatrain. The quatrain is above.
I have long thought the dart was a missile of some sort and that the "execution" was of people caught in mid-sentence when the nuclear warhead exploded. Now I am not so sure! What if the "dart" is Comet C/2006 P1 McNaught, now visible in the southern hemisphere and visible earlier this month in the north until about January 13?
That is correct. It wasn't supposed to be a northern comet at all, not attaining naked eye visibility until after re-emerging from the glare of the sun in the southern hemisphere. But it brightened on January 1 and is now a major comet. It brightened two days after Saddam Hussein was executed.
It is unknown whether Comet C/2006 P1 McNaught will still become as bright as magnitude - 8.8 as earlier projected (40x brighter than Venus). It remains a possibility. There hasn't been a comet that bright since Comet Ikeya-Seki appeared in October and November 1965 (some observations place Ikeya-Seki's utmost magnitude at - 10). It is currently brighter than Venus at a staggering magnitude of - 6 and can also be seen during daylight in the northern hemisphere. At this time Comet McNaught qualifies as a "great comet" (one out of eight such comets seen during the last 263 years). That is all it need do to be the Mabus comet.
Southern hemisphere viewers can look in the evening sky just above the horizon 20 to 40 minutes after sunset. It will be to the left of Venus. It is possible if it reaches magnitude -8.8 that the tail will remain visible in the north, shooting straight up vertically from the horizon in the northern hemisphere until about January 25. At that point we may see its tail shooting up from the horizon as a shaft of light! Like a dart of light, like the shaft of an arrow of light!
This is thre latest view of Comet McNaught as seen during the early morning of 19 January, 2007 from Pucon, Calafquen Lake sector, some 900 km (500 miles) south from Santiago, Chile. AFP PHOTO DAVID LILLO (Photo credit should read DAVID LILLO/AFP/Getty Images) 2:38 p.m. ET, 1/19/07.

The "stone" is believed by many Nostradamus experts to be the nuclear warhead on the tip of a missile, and the "tree" the plume of fiery debris and smoke rising heavenward after the explosion.
Nostradamus may be describing the United States as "the proud nation." The US will be "brought down" fast because of some horrible weapon. A nuclear weapon or weapons!
In the last line he says that human beings will be turned into mist during what can only be a nuclear attack.
Saddam Hussein is the "monster purged" from Iraq, and the price he paid ("expiation") for his crimes against humanity was his hanging!

Now will the "great destruction of humans and beasts" follow? Is there to be "sudden vengeance" against America for the execution of Mabus (Saddam) in the form of nuclear terrorism?
Or will there actually be a nuclear war ?
Because Saddam died heroically and because he was mocked at his execution by Shi'a who support Muqtada al-Sadr, the Sunni populace is enraged and preparing for civil war in ernest.
As I write, the first great destruction of humans and beasts is being reported in the wake of a US air strike in Somalia:
U.S. strikes at al Qaeda in Somalia, "many dead"
Tue 9 Jan 2007 5:22 AM ET
By Guled Mohamed
No escape Somali refugees run through a dust storm at the Ifo refugee camp, near Dadaab, about 80 kilometres from the border with Kenya.
Photo: Reuters/Radu SighetiMOGADISHU, Jan 9 (Reuters) - A U.S. attack plane killed many people with barrages of gunfire in a remote Somali village occupied by Islamists thought to be hiding at least one al Qaeda suspect, a Somali government source said on Tuesday. In the first known direct U.S. military intervention in Somalia since a failed peacekeeping mission that ended in 1994, an AC-130 plane rained gunfire on the desolate southern village of Hayo near the Kenyan border late on Monday.
"I understand there are so many dead bodies and animals in the village," the senior source told Reuters.
The U.S. Navy also confirmed it had moved the aircraft carrier Eisenhower to the Somali coast -- Africa's longest -- to beef up a naval cordon it had already put there as the Islamists sought refuge in the remote southern tip.
"They are, with other ships, making sure that terrorists are not able to use the sea as a means of transport," said Charlie Brown, a spokesman for the U.S. Fifth Fleet, which is based in the Gulf state of Bahrain.
U.S. intelligence believes Abu Talha al-Sudani, identified in grand jury testimony against Osama bin Laden as an explosives expert from Sudan, is the leader of east Africa's al Qaeda cell and has been in and out of Somalia for over a decade.
"The Americans are saying an al Qaeda member heading operations in east Africa is among the Islamists there," the source said. He did not know the man's name or whether he died.
U.S., Ethiopian and Kenyan intelligence officials say some Islamists have provided shelter to a handful of al Qaeda members, including suspects in the 1998 bombings of the U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania and a 2002 hotel bombing on the Kenyan coast.
Besides al-Sudani, Washington has named Comorian Fazul Abdullah Mohammed and Kenyan Saleh Ali Saleh Nabhan among the al Qaeda members in Somalia.
The Washington Post, quoting unnamed military sources, said al-Sudani was one target of the raid.
US air strike on Somali village - 9 Jan 2007 |
Comet McNaught from Perth skies - 16 Jan 2007 |
The air strike on Somalia fulfills one of my predictions on 2007 (Part One) where I actually name Somalia as a potential target.
Could this be the start of the "great destruction of people and beasts?" Is the US planning on other attacks in other countries, perhaps another "shock and awe" air assault in Iraq to destroy all insurgents and the long-waited air strikes on Iran? What of North Korea's Kim Jong Il and his recent announcement that another nuclear test will be conducted very soon ... could Kim actually be planning an attack against the United States under the guise of nuclear tests? Events in space and on earth are moving quickly ...

Nostradamus seemed to believe that a new "Marianne" will use extreme and painful measures to impose peace upon an increasingly restive France, plagued by periodic rioting by disaffected Parisian youths and a growing Muslim population angry with French laws that interfere with the practise of their religion and under the sway of a popular firebrand mullah in the Lauragues (now Castelnaudary in Aude, southwestern France). Her reign, according to the French seer, will come to a bad end.
It is possible he predicted that the election of this woman, Segolene Royal, might occur not long after the hanging of Saddam Hussein.

Because of a refusal, town, land and sea will be broached, A third of a million dead or captured. |
NOTE: Selin is from the Greek Selena, goddess of the crescent moon and, thus, a symbol of Islam. The tyrant, Saddam Hussein, was put to death by hanging near the Tigris River. This has stimulated further sectarian violence and terrorism in Iraq as the country plunges deeper into civil war. The "new war" may extend to other nearby nations such as Turkey, Syria and Iran. The "lady" may be Segolene Royal as newly-elected President of France. Terrorism and unrest in southern France and possibly in and around Paris shall be ignited "in honour" of her election victory.
Unlike Segolene Royal, in an alternative election where Chirac wins, there appears to be a celebratory air after his being elected and some initial success in establishing and maintaining peace and accord throughout France during a third term. Nor does he appear to stoop to oppression to accomplish this as is indicated in Q1.94 under a Royal administration. However, the eventual results are the same: looting and rebellion by youth gangs, mobs of malcontents, and ethnic Muslims, with a foreshadowing of revolution and an eventual Iranian invasion of southern France.
This election will not be held until April 2007 and any runoff election may be as late as May 2007. Could the "Mabus effect" continue to occur and worsen this long after the passing of Comet McNaught and Saddam's execution: a period of four or five months? It is very, very possible.

Quatrain 5.19 Le grand Royal d'or, d'airain
augmenté, The great
Royal of gold, by brass is augmented, |
![]() |
Perhaps war with North Korea does not take place until the female candidate Segolene Royale ("great Royal of gold") wins the French presidential election in the spring. Not only is the last name, "Royal," named; but so is "Segolene" with the word "gold."
The reference to "brass" may mean that she does not revive the economy and the times will become substandard ("brass"). It also has the meaning that she rises to power (is "augmented") by raising and investing a great deal of money in her campaign. "Brass" can mean coinage, ie. money.
To Nostradamus, the pudgy-faced Kim Jong Il would have the appearance of a "young man," although he is in middle age. The young man could also be Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad if Iran declares war on US troops in Iraq and the Persian Gulf.
The people who are "afflicted" with a "lamentable leader" might be the people of France, since Ms Royal is not portrayed favourably in Quatrain 3.28: "Never in the kingdom has there arrived one so bad." Otherwise, it could be the leader of Iran, Ahmadinejad; or the new leader of Iraq, now powerless to stop the raging civil war; or the people of North Korea living in hardship under the lamentable "dear leader," Kim Jong Il.
The last line, "barbarians," often is used for Arabs and Muslims. But I suppose Nostradamus, seeing North Koreans, might consider these Mongols as "barbarians" too. Then again, the last line may mean jihad has come to southern France as predicted by Nostradamus, this time either from foreign invasion or by revolution of ethnic Muslims. In any case, a Muslim attack or uprising will be put down with great force and violence, causing their blood to cover the land. Yet another interpretation is that an air war has been launched against Iran around the same time as war with North Korea. Although I doubt such a war will end in victory for the US, the initial air campaign will certainly cause much bloodshed.
The following quatrain is even more terrifying because it could mean some sort of nuclear naval battle between Russia or China and the United States:
![]() |
Quatrain 3.13Through
lightning in the ship gold and silver melted,
|
![]() |
The action of this quatrain appears to coincide with the hanging ("stretched") of a nation's leader. This may be Saddam Hussien and the city may be Baghdad.
This nuclear showdown, however, could occur almost anywhere. It is most probable if it were to be fulfilled any time soon that the battlefield would be the Pacific Ocean or the Persian Gulf. Two adversaries ("captives"), each having tremendous forces, face off, destroying each other's fleets. This could be war between China and the United States, triggered by actions made by North Korea.
The captives could also allude to the intertwined fate of the twins, Castor and Pollux: Russia and the US. Russia may, seemingly overnight, become an adversary of the US in both Eastern Europe and the Middle East, now plagued by several wars.
One side will provoke the other and a naval battle will commence. As the fighting escalates, in a state of confusion and panic, US and Russian or Chinese submarine commanders will retaliate by launching armed conventional torpedoes. The circle of fire will widen, with more US and Russian or Chinese ships being destroyed in a nuclear naval battle ... one capable of triggering a nuclear attack on the US mainland. Line 4 is an excellent description of a submarine fleet.
Hopefully, these interpretations are wrong. But if they are right, there is very little time remaining.

NOSTRADAMUS
WARNS: WORDS AND ACTIONS OF
ADAM GADAHN, "THE AMERICAN AL QAEDA," WILL BE
LINKED TO NUCLEAR DESTRUCTION OF NYC
By Michael McClellan



September 2, 2006 (10:47 PM EDT), UPDATED September 12, 2006 (7:49 PM EDT) - We must all wonder when watching and hearing Adam Gadahn, the now infamous "Azzam the American," speaking out to the West on videotape with all the same authority as Ayman al-Zawahri and Osama bin Laden, if he is actually doing so completely of his free will. Is it possible that Gadahn is a brainwashed hostage rather than a willing convert? How would Nostradamus describe someone who is seemingly free yet held captive psychologically? It is here I believe that the prophet is describing Adam Gadahn as he is today and the role he may one day play:
| Quatrain 9.92 The
King will want to enter the new city. Quatrain 5.83Those
who will have an enterprise to subvert
|
![]() |
Could line 3 of Quatrain 9.92 be Nostradamus' way of describing a brain-washed American hostage who has complete freedom "to speak and act," much in the way Adam Gadahn has been allowed? It seems the prophet envisions a kind of "Manchurian Candidate" type who will be broadcast on the evening news and whose purpose will be to either lull fears or actually warn of a pending nuclear attack against New York City. Perhaps he will even help carry out the detonation of the device as a kind of nuclear version of Timothy McVeigh.
We all know that is it only a matter of time before terrorists destroy New York City -- the economic capital of America and the world -- with a nuclear device or a nuclear-tipped rocket. Twice it has been attacked, in 1993 and in 2001. The second attack, compared to the first, was like a massive, destructive earthquake compared to a less severe temblor that only managed to shatter some windows, crack a few buildings, and rattle everyone's nerves. When terrorists strike NYC a third time, the magnitude of the act will go off the chart. It will be the final time: a nuclear attack. Perhaps, it will be the "American Al Qaeda" himself who will execute the final directive. I believe this event will take place in August/September 2008 or April 2009, but it could still happen much sooner.
No question that the "unparalleled kingdom" in Quatrain 5.83 is the United States of America, if this portent of doom is intended for our time. We should anticipate three videotapes, three nights in a row or nearly, to be shown on television, aimed squarely at the citizens of the United States. Is today's videotape from Ayman al-Zawahri and "Azzam the American" the first of three to come? "Fraud," in this Nostradamus quatrain, is intended to mean "to deceive, to confuse."
So as "the greatest one," President George W. Bush, reads his Bible, we wait for yet another videotaped warning.
He will wish to visit the "Big Apple," but will suspect treachery and "stay far from the enemy." From an underground bunker somewhere or from Strategic Defense headquarters, he will watch, hoping against all hope that the act will not be carried out. He may even prepare to direct efforts to defend the city using his missile defence system in the event the attack comes from enemy nuclear ballistic missiles. But the devices that will bring destruction will already be in the city, unreachable and hidden.
"We invite all Americans and believers to Islam, wherever they are, whatever their role and status in Bush and Blair's world order. Decide today, because today could be your last day ...The West is the civilization which
enslaved Africa, slaughtered native Americans, fired
bombs at Tokyo
|
| ... and is this tape really saying another 911 is near? |

| A
third tape has been released, this time
"starring" Ayman al-Zawahri, bin
Laden's second-in-command. Still nothing quite
specific regarding an attack on the US mainland
has emerged. Rather, Al Qaeda's sights appear to
be aimed at destroying the US military presence
in the Persian Gulf and the state of Israel, with
a vague threat against the UN peacekeepers
assembling in Lebanon. Also, in the most general
and even ambiguous of terms, there appeared to be
a hint that strikes against America itself may
soon commence, yet the warning ended in what
sounded like yet another threat against US
military forces. This third tape most certainly did not sound like an Al Qaeda warning on the eve of an "American Hiroshima." Far more threatening have been past videotapes made a year and more ago. I have noted that al-Zawahri's warnings have never preceded anything momentous. In all four cases of major attacks, 911, 311, 7-7 and Bali, Bin Laden had the last word on audiotape or videotape. Therefore, I have to conclude that the Nostradamus scenario discussed above in Quatrain 5.83 has yet to happen. In all likelihood when it does the videotapes will be aired on three consecutive nights, not three tapes over the space of eight or nine days as was the case this time around. Probably each tape will be so troubling, possibly each one actually mentioning a pending nuclear attack, that it will be the "big news" of each of the three days, with 24-hour coverage, and the nation initially put on a state of orange alert and then red alert by the second or third night. I also strongly suspect we shall see more of Adam Gadahn, who may very well be the nuclear version of Timothy McVeigh, as we near the total destruction of NYC in 2008 or 2009. |

| Emphasis on
this tape is on al Qaeda's "legal and
rational justification" to
"continue" its fight with the USA, the
defeat of the United States in the Persian Gulf,
its "economic ruin," the defeat of
Israel, the destruction of US "power"
or America's "surrender," mention that
America's leaders are hiding "the true
extent of the disaster" (the nuclear
terrorist act on US soil yet to come), and that
new disastrous events are multiplying in the
world. The upshot of all of this in the very near term remains unclear. Note that the the US "economic ruin" will not be achieved until troops have been forced out of the Persian Gulf. He does not say that the military defeat will cause the "economic ruin," rather he says this will be the point in time when the "economic ruin" will be achieved (as though it was a separate event). Remember, Bin Laden and other Al Qaeda figures have always linked America's "economic ruin" with the nuclear destruction of Manhattan and a handful of other select US cities, an operation they have dubbed "American Hiroshima." This agrees with the Seer of Waldviertel's prophecy that New York City will be destroyed after the US loses the war in Saudi Arabia (the Gulf region), but before a major limited conflict in the Balkans and an Eastern invasion of Europe. Indeed, the destruction of New York, according to the Waldviertler, is a long-awaited terrorist reprisal to some singularly atrocious action that will have been committed by the US military. Thus, it would appear that the US will first be defeated and forced to withdraw from Iraq and the Persian Gulf region, and then afterwards shall be punished for its war in the region (and all perceived crimes committed there) by a nuclear attack on NYC. Personally, I think this nuclear destruction of NYC is still another two, possibly even three, years away. As for whether another major, non-WMD attack is near for the US, we can only wait and see what happens. The final vector for such an attack is February 2007 and may involve flooding Manhattan. It is also possible this event has already been thwarted. See page 2007. |

DENVER (AP) - John and Patsy Ramsey
believe an intruder may have waited for hours in their home
before strangling their daughter JonBenet, according to
transcripts of an interview to be broadcast Friday.
Though Karr claims he picked
the girl up at school, schools were closed for the
Christmas break when she died.
In the works of Michel Nostradamus:
It is important when one looks at these famous prophecies of Michel Nostradamus, to look at them in a multi-language setting. We have the French before us, and an English interpretation.
In the first line, we have the word, "Devant," in French. With an insertion of an "i" we have the word, deviant. Deviant is the meaning for a person who is sexually maladjusted. This term is right next to the word for "the father."
The next words over are the word for
"infant." In older French law, a child was considered
an infant until it was six years old. And of course, Jon Benet
was six years old at the time she was killed.
Line two says, "The father afterwards." Or, "after the father makes entry," or ... as the synonyms would tell us, we could use the word, "penetration," which is a legalistic sexual term for a forced sex act or a sex act in itself.
So it says, "after the father makes penetration," and then it has the words "cordes de jonc," in French. That means..." see, or look at dead jonc." In other words, "see jonc dead, corded." The father penetrates. That completes line 2.
The third line is necessary to look at in French, because we have the word "Geneva," or in French, "Geneuois." We see an "o" next to the "is." "O," in Nostradamus prophecies, can often times stand for nothing and is not necessarily part of the word we are looking for. So transpose "is" to "si" and we have "u si" ("you see") and then we have the letters ... "gene." Remember that we looking here for the name, "Benet."
Please notice we have no "t" in that pronunciation. Also, remember that the "b" and the "g," are orthographically are somewhat interchangeable. They have the same form. One is just turned upside-down. So this is a clever way of giving the name, "Benet." "You see Benet."
Now, to go on, we have the next word, in French, is "people," but that word is also, "family." Such as the Benet family. Then, we have a rather unusual English term, "will have exerted," which simply comes out to "will not show themselves," or "will not expose themselves."
This is true, the Benet family will not give testimony on the legal case that they have become involved in.
Now
we go on to the last line of this prophecy, where Nostradamus is
saying, "The chief." We know that JOHN Benet Ramsey was
considered a chief of his company, and Nostradamus' line,
"in the middle," or being in the center, or being at
the center, or within the center.
We know that the place... where Mr. Benet worked, was called "The Center" and he is the chief executive at: "The Center." Then it goes on to say, "like a log," and in French, we have, "comme un tronc." This comes out to: "me nom tronc."
This is very interesting because that's the word, "log," and in Old English, also the word, "block", to cram. Please notice ... "cram"... and we turn it around ... and you have, "Ram-c" a phonetic clue for the person involved here. "My name is Ramsey."
Then, we also have the word," block", or... blockhead. In French it means fool, or in modern day French, the word, "benet."
That ends the analysis of this particular prophecy.
There is also another prophecy on this incident; Nostradamus wrote it in Century 2, Verse 64.
The crime took place in December of 1996.
Please remember, we must look at these prophecies, at the same time, in BOTH English and in French. This is where we are getting our codes and our keys and our different meaning. Nostradamus did say several times in his prophecies, that he hid these prophecies in the languages and in the words themselves. This is simply what we are doing. A large anagram, or a large crossword puzzle.
In the first line, "The people of Geneva." The word, "family" and "people" are interchangeable, and, then ... we have the word, "Geneuoise," in French.
We encountered this word in our other
verse,, and found out that it can stand for, "you
see benet." So ... now we have the term, "benet,"
and then it says, "Gent." Gent, in Old
English, is "Mister," Mr. Benet.
Nostradamus now relates..."drying up with hunger." "Hunger'" in Old English, also meant, "lust, thirst and desire." These are synonyms we are using... for the words we see in the text here.
Then, we have:
"Hope, at hand will come to fail." This is interesting, because the name of the police officer in this situation is... "Kope." Now... change the "H," in hope to a "K." Kope is who was handling or was in charge, will come to fail. In other words he is not successful in the police investigation of Mr. Benet.
In the third line, in French, we see, "Sur point tremblant."
"What will happen to this Sir," or "what is the point of this Mr?"
The word, "trembling," gives us the point of it. He will be the feared one. Please notice once again, that we have, "you see benet." It says, he will face the law. We are using both the French and the English.
Do not try and use the English alone.
Do not try and use the French alone.
Many of these clues are also in additional languages, mainly Latin, and some Greek at times. We have to look for these things. For instance, the word, "loi," in the third line, "...will face the law, or will be the law." The word, "look," ..." lo," is standing for... "look or behold," and then we see benet. They fear benet. It will be the law of fear, that takes over in this particular case.
Then.
.. it finally says: "...Classe," this
also means, "...family, no longer
welcome at the great port." "Grand,"
also means, "capital," and, "port"
also means, the color of red. So, we have here, color of
red .... "Colorado." It says,
"the family at the grand port, or the family in
Colorado." There is an anagram here: Nostradamus
puts into play ... He ends it by saying: "cannot be
received," this can mean, "will no longer be
welcome."
So, we see the fate of John Benet [RAMSEY] here, that because of the law of fear, that he will not be welcome in the state of Colorado. He will not be well received. Mr. Benet does face the law, the verse seems to be pointing out that the investigation and the work of the police comes to fail. We have an anagram for the word, "Kope," in the verse, and remember, some of these anagrams, or words or puzzles are phonetic.
When you see the word, "hope," we have the word ... "Kope," the name of the police chief in Boulder Colorado. The clues in the Nostradamus prophecies are not always orthographic clues, they are sometimes numerical clues and sometimes they include the use of codes and names hidden in the actual words.
It is not fair to take one or two lines, or one or two words and switch them around and come up with something in code. We have to look at every word of the verse, and we also have examine the verses, before and after the verse in use, to see if there is any additional meaning related to the verse in question.
These the codes, or tricks, Nostradamus used in his meanings, when he wrote these verses about future occurances in the 16th Century, has aided in the actual survival of the AMAZING PROPHECIES, and has caused them to survive to the time of their actual occurrence, here in the opening decades of the new millennium.

Things are getting interesting around Israel's neighborhood. It has been suggested that Iran ordered the Hezbollah provocations against Israel in order to divert attention from Iran's nuclear program. I believe that may have been one reason. The more important reason is to excite anti-Israel sentiment. Hezbollah is but a pawn. Israel's attacks in Lebanon will get Iran what it wants - a more general Islamic assent to the destruction of Israel. Hezbollah's leader, Nasrollah has promised that if Israel bombs Central Beirut, that missiles will be launched against Tel Aviv. This is the actual reason for the current conflict - to justify an Iranian nuclear missile launch into Israel.
There is a Nostradamus quatrain that seems related to the current conflict:
X.96
Nostradamus was of one of the tribes of Israel that settled in France. His family was forcibly Christianized. This was also the case with Israelites that settled in Spain. Those in Spain that secretly held onto Judaism, were known as Marranoes. Many of the Marannoes returned to the land of Israel and are now involved in the Mideast turmoil. Our prophet may have intended the Marrano sect for its similarity with the French spelling for sea: mer, marin.
Saad Ladin, son of Osama Bin Ladin has recently been sent to Lebanon to lead Al Qaeda there against Israel.
Aleph is the Hebrew word for the letter A. It may simply indicate The Israelis. It also strengthens our interpretation for line one. The sense of the entire poem is that Israel will prevail. Al Qaeda will have reason to fear the two wounded by the Israelis. It would seem that the two most likely to be feared are the nations of Iran and Syria.


June 29, 2006 (4:25 PM EDT), UPDATED July 15, 2006 (2:21 AM EDT): Almost six weeks following the air attack that killed Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, new developments suggest that the terrorist chief of the "Al Qaeda in Iraq" may have indeed been the dreaded "Mabus" of Nostradamus prophecy.
One notion that appeared to disqualify Zarqawi has quickly evaporated.
I had noted that his
beheadings of foreign captives and attacks on innocent Iraqi
civilians reportedly disgusted Al Qaeda leaders Osama bin Laden
and his second in command, Ayman al-Zawahiri. Later, al-Zawahiri
publically condemned al-Zarqawi for his actions and
seemed to disassociate the so-called "Iraqi Al Qaeda"
from the actual Al Qaeda.
However, in a surprise reversal, al-Zawahiri has mourned the killing of Musab al-Zarqawi in a videotape aired on June 27, indicating that those responsible (the US) would pay.
Two days from now, Osama bin Laden will reportedly be releasing a new tape praising al-Zarqawi and calling upon Al Qaeda members worldwide to seek "vengeance" for his death.
This certainly suggests that there may be an Al Qaeda retaliation against the United States for the assassination of Musab al-Zarqawi. Perhaps the terrorist attack may even take the form of the threatened "American Hiroshima," which would include the nuclear destruction of NYC.
Already there have been seven American-born
terrorists arrested in Miami, all who pledged allegiance to Al
Qaeda. They intended to attack targets in four US states,
including the Sears Tower. Since their arrest, several menacing
events have occurred: a massive explosion at a motel in Georgia,
an explosion and fire at a factory in Illinois still under
investigation, a bombing threat against President George W. Bush
discovered on a boat anchored in southern California, and a
shootout between police and a man holding a woman and child
hostage at a Las Vegas airport.
The media and government have downplayed these events as non-terrorist, domestic disturbances (i.e., accidents, a prank, the act of a suicidal man, etc.).
However, it is strange they follow on the heels of the arrests in Miami. Imagine a thousand such incidents throughout the United States on the same day, each one resulting in a few, scores, hundreds, and even thousands of deaths. That would be a very terrifying day indeed.

This image released by IntelCenter on Saturday July 1, 2006 shows a photo of Osama bin Laden above the logo and name As-Sahab, al-Qaida's media production wing, as it appears on a internet message Saturday with a 19-minute audio recording -- his fifth statement this year and his second in two days.
Bin Laden urged Iraqi militants in an Internet message Saturday to continue fighting the U.S.-led coalition in Baghdad, or else "all the capitals in the region will fall to the crusaders." The message also endorsed Abu Hamza al-Muhajer (aka Abu Ayyub al-Masri) as the new leader for his terror network al-Qaida in Iraq, succeeding Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, who was killed last month in a U.S. airstrike.
The message also purportedly encourages Sunnis to retaliate against Shiites in Iraq. As-Sahab Media says another bin Laden message is expected soon.

I have long argued that after the death of the true Mabus, the likely scenario would be a giant Middle East war, one that would escalate into a global conflict. This is the same "great war" in the Middle East that Alois Irlmaier predicted would precede a major Balkans conflict and World War III in Europe. This would begin as an Israeli-Palestinian armed conflict leading to an Israeli or US/Israeli war against Syria. It is possible the start of this confrontation has already begun:




Needless to say, if war breaks out between Israel and Syria, millions of people may die in one day. The prophets Isaiah and Jeremiah both warn that Damascus and other Syrian cities will be utterly destroyed by fire, probably ignited by nuclear missiles. Also, the "king of Babylon" (pro-US government in Iraq and US forces?) shall "rise like an eagle" over Bosra and smite a portion of Syria as well. This initial event of the war would more than fulfill the second line of the Mabus quatrain.
Meanwhile, as a new Arab-Israeli war threatens to boil over, a deadly escalation in the US war in Iraq still remains poised as Musab al-Zarqawi's successor consolidates his position. Is it possible that "Alus" will be much worse than "Mabus" ever was?
The "ARAB
PRINCE" arrived on time in the month of June. He is
Egyptian-born ABU AYYUB AL-MASRI (aka ABU
HAMZA AL-MUHAJER). He is also the dreaded "ALUS,"
I believe. Erika Cheetham suggests that "Alus" was
derived by Nostradamus from the Latin "Malus" ('evil
one"). Thus, we have Alus = Malus = Almus Ri = Mir Alus =
Emir Alas = Emir Alus = Alus.
Because al-Masri was born in Egypt, he may also be the monster prophesied by Islam known as the Sufyaani. His brutal beheading of two US prisoners-of-war begins what may be a much more horrifying reign of terror than that of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi.
It is also quite possible that the Mabus quatrain is really about a change in terrorist leadership and the horrific consequences that follow. In other words, after the death of Mabus (Abu Musab al-Zarqawi), Alus (Abu Ayyub al-Masri) takes his place ... and proves to be more brutal, destructive, and terrifying than Mabus ever was, ultimately causing mass death throughout the Middle East and triggering global war.
Meanwhile, as described in Quatrain 4.67, "from intense heat a great place burns": the worst Western wildfires to strike the United States and now Canada in many years. Could things also be heating up toward a massive explosion in one of several volcanoes now being watched? There have been many "incursions" by Israel into Gaza, Lebanon, and over Syrian air space. There has also been a major terrorist bombing in Mumbai, India. "Wars" continue unabated in Iraq, Afghanistan, Lebanon, Pakistan, Kashmir, Sudan, Sri Lanka, and elsewhere. Also, "a long trajectory" has occurred or is about to occur: either the recent (but uneventful) passing of Comet Schwassmann-Wachmann or yet another long-range missile "test," this one successful, by North Korea to strike the United States or, perhaps, the fateful missile that Iran may launch against Israel (or vice versa). Could the latter somehow bring about the "great destruction of people and beasts" augured in Quatrain 2.62, the Mabus quatrain, now that Abu Musab (Mabus) al-Zarqawi is dead??
These events occurring in the aftermath of the death of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi should be of grave concern.
Building tensions are escalating between North Korea, South Korea, Japan, and the United States concerning the recent test-firing of ten missiles, two of them long-range, at Japan and the US mainland, more planned missile tests by the Korean madman Kim Jong Il, Japanese and American warnings of sanctions and possible retaliation, a threat by the ruling party in North Korea to attack South Korea and wipe out US forces, and accusations that US spy planes have flown over N. Korea air space.

NORTH KOREA THREATENS US WITH 'NUCLEAR WAR' |
![]() |
Did 'nuclear war' begin on the 4th of July, with the world now waiting anxiously for the first successful volley? It's just too bad to be true!


As North Korea launches missile after missile "test," the world frets and wrestles with outrage. It is a major escalation in the nuclear crisis that began in 2002. How will it end??
North Korea says it will respond to any pre-emptive U.S. military attack with an "annihilating strike and a nuclear war."
The Korean Central News Agency, citing an unidentified Rodong Sinmun newspaper "analyst" on Monday, accused the United States of increasing military pressure on the isolated communist state and basing new spy planes on the Korean Peninsula.
THE RED ADVERSARY
The North Korean threat of
retaliation, which is often voiced by its state-controlled media,
comes amid U.S. official reports that Pyongyang has tested a
number of SCUDS and two long-range missiles. North Korea claims
it has the right to such a launch ...
The United States assumes, rightly or wrongly, that North Korea would only perform a test, not fire a missile as an act of war. But with madman Kim Jong Il pulling the strings in Pyongyang, who knows what he is capable of, this "red adversary" (see Quatrain 3.1 below concerning this Pacific Ocean dictator).

Well, it appears the alleged Hiroshima-powered meteorite that struck Norway was anything but. The absence of any further spates of fireballs would also tend to kill the idea that somehow Comet Schwassmann-Wachmann was "the Mabus death star." Indeed, as I noted earlier, it was a non-event because it was not seen with the naked eye.
For the most part it was only around magnitude 5 or 5.5, although for a few days it was a magnitude 3.
Most people did not see it with their own eyes, but needed telescopes or binoculars. Nostradamus does not normally write about comets that people cannot easily see. With him, they are always very bright, even spectacular objects.
That is the one thing still working against Abu Musab al-Zarqawi being Mabus. No comet in the sky easily to see. Unless one comes out of nowhere in the next several weeks. That could also happen.
Then again, perhaps we are reading the passage wrong. Perhaps it is not the death of Mabus that occurs when the comet runs. Perhaps it will be the "hundred, hand, thirst and hunger" that follows the "sudden vengeance" that will be "seen." That might indicate that WORLD WAR III WILL BREAK OUT WHEN THE COMET IS NEAR.
My projected vector for a major comet is October 2007, so we shall see.


Friends,
On the day after the sixth day of the sixth month of the sixth
year of the new millennium, a terror from the skies fell upon a
reinforced house nestled in a peaceful grove of date palms thirty
miles north of Baghdad, killing a beast who could be a candidate
for Nostradamus' Third Antichrist. That is the day after 6/6/6
when two US Airforce GPS guided 500 pound bombs met their long,
lightning fast shadows in fire and dust over a canopy of palms.
They made a crater out of the safe house of al-Qaeda's evil
insurgent leader in Iraq.
The agent of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi's death was not the terror from the skies foretold by the 16th century prophet in Quatrain 72 of Century 10 of his book of predictions. This "advent" prophecy of the third and final installment of his Antichrists (the last two being "Hister"--Hitler, and "Napaulon Roy"--Napoleon King) describes "September month" of the year "1999" and not the day after 6/6/6. Some believe 1999 is a coded date. Reverse nines and ones and you may get the real day and year intended: September 9.11.1. Thus, the Third Antichrist advances before history's collective perception with the attack on the World Trade Center in New York and the Pentagon in Washington D.C. Is he, therefore, the leader of al-Qaeda or a lieutenant who will gain greater fame than the founder, Usama bin Laden, thanks to the attack on September 11?
A clever Nostradamian as dyslexically vertical in thinking as the prophet could entertain turning "1999" upside down to get "6/6/6 + 1 day" to represent 7 June and make some link to the death of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi with the advent of the Third Antichrist. The reason being that Nostradamus foretold this dark figure, unlike his predecessors, will obtain his ultimate infamy through death in the early stages of a world war that will last 27 years. One could argue that there is a link to the "king of terror" descending from the skies on the war's birth day in 1999 (9.11.1) with the death day of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi. You could say that fate turned 1999 and his fortunes upside down on the date of 6/6/6 plus 1.
Ever since Abu Musab al-Zarqawi crawled out from under a rock into history's light a few years ago, he has become the most popular candidate for decoding the enigmatic name given by Nostradamus for the third and final Antichrist.
We are now
suffering the opening stages of the war of this Third Antichrist.
It is popularly believed that Nostradamus scheduled his
appearance around the arrival of a great comet that all could see
with the naked eye. That could be Comet Hale-Bopp.
It's transit of 1997 skies presaged the grim and notorious
"1999/9.11.1" prophecy by only a few years. The
potential code name of the Antichrist is "Mabus." The
prophecy numbered Century 2 Quatrain 62
describes his fate. A translation in English reads:
Mabus will
soon die, then will come,
A horrible undoing of people and animals,
At once one will see vengeance,
One-hundred powers, thirst, famine, when the comet will pass.
My long held interpretation of the above proposes that "Mabus" unlike his Anti-Christian predecessors is one of the first to die in the world war of terrorism he unleashes. His death will mark a horrible undoing or destruction of both people "and" animals, linking this war with other Nostradamian prophecies about plagues of human invention, such as plagues of radiation, biological and chemical weapons that kill people and animals stained with lethal, icelike or red rains. The death of "Mabus" starts a great terror war of vengeance and counter-vengeance involving 100 powers (countries) "when the comet will pass." Hale-Bopp did pass in 1997. We have lived since that time under dramatically hotter climate, endured greater droughts ("thirst") than ever recorded and seen historic outbreaks of"famine" in Africa. Other Nostradamian prophecies pick up the metaphor of a comet passing on a different errand, One that is long in shape, dragging a tail of sparks falling on cities. Will the "comet" like missiles "pass" once this candidate for Mabus is dead?
A tale of terror descending from the skies comes full circle for the man whose name many believe most easily decodes the Mabus enigma. Just three brief years into his insurrection, at the point of fulfilling a dream of plunging Iraq into a religious civil war, US smart bombs launched overhead blew apart a safe house where Zarqawi and some al-Qaeda commanders met. US forces later found the sole survivor was Zarqawi, with lungs imploded by the blast concussion. He lingered 51 minutes in semi-consciouness before expiring in time for his fatal photo op. Zarqawi's lifeless face, a photographer's version of a death mask, soon appeared on the covers of news magazines and was broadcast on television around the world. Time will tell whether this photo will become the icon of martyrdom inspiring future jihadist in his name to launch missiles and blow up both people and animals.
There are a number of ways you can apply Nostradamus' laws of anagram to get "Mabus" from a phonetic spelling in Roman letters of the late Abu Musab al-Zarqawi's name:
1.) Drop the "M" and the "s" from "Mabus" and you get "Abu"--or "father" in Arabic--The prefix all Arab terrorists use these days, including al-Zarqawi.
2.) His second name "Musab" is a literal mix of the letters that spell "Mabus."
3.) Even "Zarqawi" in a stretch of the rules can make a match when applying the anagram technique of reverse lettering. You can make a new letter in lower case of any letter turned upside down or around. You can replace letters that sound similar, such as a "z" for an "s." Thus, "zarqawi" becomes "sarqawi if "z" becomes "s." Turn "q" into a "b" and "w" into an "m". Now "sarbami" mixed around gets you "Mabas" if you drop the maximum limit of two superfluous letters, such as "r" or "i."
It is because of these relatively easy word games that thousands of you over the years have sent me letters asking if Abu Musab is Mabus, the Third Antichrist.. Now that he has fallen, and despite how much the shoe of anagram fits his evil footprint in prophecy, I do not think the shoe fits. I untie the shoestrings setting free the foot--hopefully not into my mouth--and hold fast to a comment I wrote about Zarqawi and his Mabus connenction as a form response to many of your similar questions sent over the years since he first appeared in Iraq:
"I am watching Abu Musab al-Zarqawi's progress. There is still some doubt whether he is a fiction made up by a US Administration desperate to create new boogie men to scare the American people into obedience. If you don't have a nemesis, you need to cook one up, especially if you want people to be in a hypnotic state of fear and perpetual imminent threat after capturing Saddam and failing to capture Bin Laden. Abu Musab may also be a real terrorist enjoying stepping into the bigger britches of myth sewn together by US Psyops.
The name approximation to Mabus is almost too good to be true. It is almost like someone in the CIA or NSC was trying to compose an Arabic name that played with the anagram in various ways: (M)abu(s) (M)usa(b)= "Mabus" of a "USA"; or Musab= (M)(ab)(us); a typical anagram letter switch from the middle of the word to the end."
Upon his death nearly three years after writing the above, news outlets in their obituaries of Zarqawi, especially those reporting from beyond US borders and corporate control, also concluded that he was a more sexed up boogie man than he actually was. Zarqawi's relatively small band of foreign jihadists, Al-Qaeda in Mesopotamia (misrepresented in the US press as al-Qaeda in Iraq) was relatively lost in the crowd of hundreds of home grown Iraqi insurgent organizations. A mix of Zarqawi's hard sell of brutality, beheadings and Mosque bombings blended with the Bush administration's need to cover-up what was not, as they projected for years, a foreign jihadist insurgency in Iraq, pumped up Zarqawi's image there.
It would seem that
even the father of al-Qaeda, Usama bin Laden, exploited the power
of the Abu Musab myth. He expansively granted him the
title of his chief lieutenant for al-Qaeda operations in Iraq
only last year. Privately the relationship between Usama and Abu
Musab was going south.
The blasting of the Samara Shia Mosque last year had backfired. Worldwide Muslim opinion was turning against al-Qaeda because of it. Brother Sunni insurgent groups were openly clashing with Zarqawi's men on the streets of Iraq.
Even a pained bin Laden openly voiced concern that good relations with the insurgency required al-Qaeda find an Iraqi leader to replace Zarqawi.
Time was against Zarqawi's Mabus myth. Two five hundred pound bombs and martyrdom forestalled what might have been a rapid fall from grace and influence in the rebellion in the near future.
I would conclude that he was a real terrorist who by coincidence rather than commission by US Psyops wickedly fit the Mabus decoding. He was too good--or better, too terrible--to be true for propaganda purposes by both sides. Either death or disagreements about strategy with his bosses would have tainted his dark star. The US administration habitually fingered him for almost everything nasty happening in Iraq and it started to wear a bit thin. The ruthless atrocities of Al-Qaeda's man in Mesopotamia began dividing the insurgency.
Zarqawi will be remembered as one of the many similarly spelled Arabic named terrorists that could of, should of, would of fulfilled the Mabus prophecy but did not. Still, one must never be too possessed by an opinion or interpretation of signs when uncovering the elusive path of the future. The man who lay dying in a US stretcher among the ruins of his safe house, his back turned on his captors, the last phrases of a mumbled Islamic prayer ascending lifeless, bloody lips, could be the Abu Musab "Mabus" Nostradamus intended. If he is, then the following steps require fulfillment according to the wording of Century 2 Quatrain 62:
1.) Zarqawi "soon dies"--in other words, after a brief and bloody run of three years he is martyred for his cause as he always wanted. And now his name will become a cry of defiance, perhaps even a "Zarqawi" movement will come about or a Abu Musab al-Zarqawi Brigade of bloodthirsty terrorists will descend on Iraq.
2.) What then should soon follow his death is a terrible destruction and undoing of people and animals--the 27 year war of terror mentioned elsewhere in Nostradamus' Antichrist prophecies.. The war would have to come as a consequence of fulfilling Zarqawi's other cherished death wish: a full-fledged civil war between Shia and Sunni Iraqis. Al-Qaeda in Mesopotamia under his command did change the focus of the insurrection in the last nine months from a mostly Sunni versus US occupation insurgency into a low grade Sunni versus Shia sectarian civil war with death squads from either community hunting down and executing around a hundred victims a day across Iraq. Perhaps many more. The mainstream press hardly reports on widespread ethnic cleansing, yet so far, starting last year, tens of thousands of Sunnis have been forced out of Shia dominated southern Iraq. Shias by the tens of thousands have evacuated the Sunni triangle. Every night across Iraq people of a minority ethnic persuasion receive a knock on the door from black hooded thugs--militiamen from the surrounding majority population be it Sunni or Shia--ordering them to leave immediately or be killed on the morrow.
Zarqawi's people
stole the limelight and stoked the smoldering civil war with the
bombing of Shia Mosques and holy sites. It might have happened
anyway without him, but the dye of this myth is cast in Zarqawi
stains of black forever. If he was Mabus then after his death the
simmering civil war should explode across Iraq, drawing in more
Sunni terrorists from across the Islamic world. The Iraqi Shia
majority will seek and get Iran to come in. Iran will then enter
open conflict with the US over Iraq. If the US attacks Iran, they
will attack Israel and Israel will respond in kind. Then a region
wide war would begin the terrible undoing of people and animals
in the Middle East.
3.) The apocalyptic fulfillment of this prophecy must be soon after Mabus' death, or "at once" as Nostradamus put it. Quickly, like a desert brush fire, a hundred hands or powers seek vengeance and counter vengeance across the region. There must soon come a war, thirst and famine "when the comet passes."
If by "comet" we read "missile" then within a few weeks or months after the death of Zarqawi there must be a war of missiles -- most likely salvoes of such grim weaponry tracing their long comet tails over the airspace of Iran, over US assets and bases in the Persian Gulf and Iraq. Iranian missiles will strike Israel who in turn will launch retaliatory missile attacks on Iran.
I cannot see anything less disastrous fulfilling the prophecy of a "horrible undoing" of man and animal than a full scale war with missiles raining chemical, biological and perhaps even nuclear warheads across the Middle East. The US administration has openly talked about using nukes on Iran's nuclear industry. Iran possesses WMD arsenals of chemical and biological agents fatal to men and animals. So too does Israel, which also possesses an estimated stockpile of 200 nuclear warheads.
In my previous article we considered Nostradamus' astrological prophecy in Century 4, Quatrain 67, which says:
In
the year when Saturn and Mars are equally fiery,
The air is very dry, a long comet:
From hidden fires a great place burns with heat,
Little rain, hot wind, wars and raids.
At the time of this writing, Saturn and Mars are equally fiery and bellicose in the sign of Leo. Back on 7 June, Zarqawi was bombed to girl and boy virgin reveries of the hereafter while overhead Mars (God of War) had just entered the first degree of Leo--black Saturn was at 7 degrees Leo. They were within two degrees conjunction from 16 until 21 June.
I would presume that
important and secret decisions were made by the Pentagon for a
planned war in the Middle East at that time, despite the
distraction of a new and bellicose standoff between North Korea
and the US beginning right at the end of the conjunction when
North Korea's announced plans to test launch their Taepo Dong
ICBM missile. It has a capacity to hurl one of their estimated
ten nuclear warheads on US cities from the Pacific Coast to the
Mississippi River. There are rumblings in US government and
Pentagon circles that a US air attack on North Korea's launch
site is imminent. Just the kind of rash martial temptations
Saturn and Mars conjure in the unconscious and reactive habits of
human beings.
Mars will end its transit of equal fire with Saturn in Leo on 22 July. A full-scale civil war in Iraq and/or a widening conflict including Iran and Israel can happen at any time during or a few months after the end of this astrological aspect.
Perhaps fate and fiery planets will throw a little doomsday Korean seasoning into the mix.
If war soon breaks out, and no other significant candidate for "Mabus" should die, such as Usama bin Laden or G. W. Bush*, only then can we seriously claim for Abu Musab al-Zarqawi the Nostradamian title, Third Antichrist.
(*Go to the HogueProphecy Archives to review how Usama bin Laden, and G. W. Bush can be derived from decoding the anagram "Mabus.")

45 Steps
Grapple with the notion that a 360-day year equates to 360 degrees of a circle as the mystics of Nostradamus day commonly did. More correctly translated, Quatrain 6:97 states 45 steps, not degrees. Burning (combustion) is vertical, not angular. Nostradamus was defining time coordinates. 45 years high, by 45 years wide is 2025 square years. It is pretty obvious that Eastern civilization is the old city and Western civilization is the new city. 45 steps high x 45 steps wide x 45 steps deep = 91,125 cube. A 45-cubed week after the crucifixion of Christ, the new city of the USA was born. 45 cubed days after the USA was born, occurs in December of 2025, overlaying nicely with 45 squared years on our Gregorian calendar. Furthermore, our abbreviated Julian dating system beginning at the year 1900 will click past Julian date 45,999 within December of 2025. Remain mindful of which year WW2 ended through the use of fire. It is an enigma to me that when Nostradamus wrote, the Americas were untouched by old world civilization. Lastly, any cube or square creates 45 degree angles when drawing a line from one corner to another.

7 Stadia Round
Coincidently, just as the 1945 atomic usage was 13 squared years (169) after USA founding, Quatrain 1.69 details a 7 stadia round rock which would hit earth. Removing the circumference (roundness) via dividing by pi leaves a 1300+ feet diameter asteroid. Apophis, which will come within one-tenth of our Earth-Lunar distance on Friday the 13th, in April of 2029 has an estimated diameter of 1300 feet. The uniqueness of asteroids is their non-spherical nature allowing for a variable diameter depending on where the measuring tape is placed. Because Apophis is enough of a risk to satellites, and the earths magnetosphere, serious consideration has been given to set off a nuclear device on Apophis next pass so when 2029 comes, its course will have become diverted out to a much safer near approach. My concern is that this plan would litter the surface of Apophis with radioactivity and perhaps shatter Apophis into multiple pieces, some of which might be more likely to hit earth. If this gruesome scenario occurs, Apophis could become the dreaded wormwood asteroid of Revelation which poisons the water. Review the facts: Apophis 2029, Friday the 13th approach is THE closest approach to Earth of all the known asteroids for the next 200 years. Apophis size is 7 stadia round. The near approach occurs within 4 years of 45 steps. Think tank mavericks are actually thinking about blasting this thing. If they do, I hope they are smart enough to use materials which will degrade in outer space long before 2029. Time is critical, for deciding at the last moment (in 2029) that Apophis is approaching just a little too close for comfort would necessitate using a much more powerful (risky) device.

George
W. Bush: Tecumseh Curse Closing In?
by
Michael McClellan

August 27, 2005 (10:52 PM EDT) - She's been staring us in the face nearly all of August, and yet only now have I realised how critical a player in prophetic events Cindy Sheehan may be. Note I must couch such a statement with caution, but if the current face-off between President George W. Bush and Sheehan and her supporters continues, and continues to grow increasingly more hostile, it is possible events will spiral out of control and lead to the fulfillment of the following Nostradamus prophecy:
![]() |
Quatrain 8.73 Soldat Barbare le grand Roy
frappera, The great King is struck by
a barbarian soldier, |
![]() |
The problem with this quatrain up until now has been that one feels compelled to link the "barbarian soldier" with the "avaricious mother" somehow. Since Nostradamus applied the word "barbarian" to Arabs and Islamic peoples in general (the last Crusades and the fall of Constantinople were "recent" history to educated Europeans living in the 1550s and attacks on trading ships by Algerian pirates was a current event), it seemed logical that the "mother" would be a Muslim as well ... perhaps the mother of the assassin or the mother of a leader who will order the murder.
Also, the word "avaricious" seemed to make no sense when applied to an assassination.
But things may be getting clearer.
Anti-war spokesman Cindy Sheehan, who is indeed a "mother," lost her son Casey in the ongoing quagmire war in Iraq. She has been a vitriolic critic of the Bush administration and the war, calling Bush a "terrorist" and his war " a war of terror." She has taken up with many anti-war groups who have taken the opportunity to line side-by-side with the mother who plans to take the protest straight to the streets of Washington, D.C. when Bush returns after Labor Day. Here is a sample of her remarks made on August 14:
"That lying bastard, George Bush, is taking a five-week vacation in time of war," Sheehan tells the Veterans For Peace, Mike Ferner. "You get that maniac out here to talk with me in person. Bush needs to tell me why my son died in Iraq. I've got the whole month of August off, and so does he.
"The other thing I want him to tell me is 'just what was the noble cause Casey died for?' Was it freedom and democracy? Bull---t! He died for oil. He died to make your friends richer. He died to expand American imperialism in the Middle East. We're not freer here, thanks to your PATRIOT Act. Iraq is not free. You get America out of Iraq and Israel out of Palestine and you'll stop the terrorism," she says. "There, I used the 'I' word -- imperialism," the 48 year-old mother quipped.
"And now I'm going to use another 'I' word -- impeachment -- because we cannot have these people pardoned. They need to be tried on war crimes and go to jail. I am not paying my taxes for 2004. You killed my son, George Bush, and I don't owe you a penny . . . you give my son back and I'll pay my taxes. Come after me for back taxes and we'll put this war on trial."
So, in what sense is Cindy Sheehan an "avaricious mother?" Which is to say, how is Cindy Sheehan a "greedy" mother?
She is indeed greedy ... for attention! She is greedy in the sense of "ambitious" ... she wants more and more power and attention to wreak havoc against the president and his administration. Nothing in this world will ever replace her son, and nothing will ever be sufficient for her as compensation short of the impeachment and removal from office of George W. Bush ... or his death!
The time for the Tecumseh Curse is nearing, as I have been warning all year. This is the year, if any year is going to be. There already was one assassination attempt against Bush in Tbilisi, Georgia several months ago. As August draws to a close, we grow nearer to the 42nd anniverary (6 x 7 years ago) of John F. Kennedy's assassination in Dallas, Texas in November 1963.
Cindy Sheehan is whipping up a frenzy of disparate anti-Bush and anti-war groups, not to mention pro-Bush groups hell-bent on a conflict with Sheehan's supporters.
CAMPED OUT IN CRAWFORD: White supremacists claim Cindy's cause -- Holding rally: 'We don't want leftist Johnny-come-latelys' to hijack issue
Posted: August 26, 2005
4:00 p.m. EasternBy Joe Kovacs
© 2005 WorldNetDaily.com
The latest entrants in the saga of Cindy Sheehan vs. the White House are white supremacists, as they plan to rally against the Iraq War this weekend in Crawford, Texas. Members of Stormfront.org are tossing their figurative hoods into the mix, as they invite supporters to come to Camp Casey to "let the world know that white patriots were first and loudest to protest this war for Israel." "We don't want leftist Johnny-come-latelys who are misleadingly protesting this war as if the war is about oil (not true), or as if it's right-wing patriots who launched this war (not true) to hijack the issue from us," writes James Kelso, senior moderator of Stormfront.
"We want to challenge these leftists with the fact that their leftist leaders, like Hillary Clinton, are on the same war-for-Israel team as the cowardly Republicans who have been bought and paid for in the Senate, House, White House and media by the Jewish Neocon political machine."
Kelso is an assistant to David Duke, the Ku Klux Klansman and activist for European-Americans who was elected to Louisiana's Legislature in 1989, and more recently has served prison time for mail fraud and filing a false tax return ...
Indeed, Ms. Sheehan's following has reached an almost cult-like status. On August 25, Sheehan even "channeled" the spirit of her dead son. According to the mother of the slain soldier, Casey said 'George Bush, you are really an idiot. You didn't know what you were doing when you killed me. You didn't know what you were getting into.' She also claims to have "tens of thousands of angels" supporting her cause to bring home immediately American troops serving in Iraq.

She publicly thanked her son and others who died in the Iraq War, and claimed to have the backing of Casey and his fellow fallen soldiers in the afterlife. "I know that they are in heaven," Sheehan said, "and I know that that's why this movement is growing because we have tens of thousands of angels behind us that are supporting us, that are saying, 'Well, you know we died and that was really crappy, but we hope that our deaths are going to make the world a better place,' and it's up to us to make sure that it does." Sheehan has referred to her son as an angel, stating in an Aug. 5 speech, Casey "became an angel while I was sleeping."
The mission of the "avaricious mother" has only begun. On September 1st her protest will begin a bus tour which will converge on Washington DC on September 24th to continue her Iraq war protest.
"It's not going to end. If George Bush came out and spoke with me today and we went home, this wouldn't end."
But it will end: Infiltrating the throngs of anti-Bush and anti-war activists shall be a terrorist ... or an American Muslim who served as a soldier in the US war in Iraq ... one of the two. And this man will shoot President Bush in the head during an extremely heated rally in Washington D.C.
Like President Abraham Lincoln, another assassinated wartime president, and also a president over a bitterly divided nation, Bush will not die immediately, but will be "not far from death." He will be taken to a place, probably a hospital, and will linger a day or two before dying from his fatal head wound.
According to Nostradamus, the assassination of George W. Bush will be "unjust." Then the nation, and the conspirator, Cindy Sheehan, shall indeed be filled with remorse.



The leader of
London through American reign (Bush-Blair axis),
July 12, 2005 (10:51 PM EDT) - This is a case where much that is suggested and indicated in the above quatrain can be read in the headlines and the text of many news stories. All can be found in various reports: the celebration of the ever-strengthening Anglo-American alliance; yet another formal state visit by an American president, this time for the G8 summit, with Scotland as the scene of earlier violent anti-G8 demonstrations and the country where the summit was held; a London mayor nicknamed "Red Ken" whose city, London, has now been plagued by Al Qaeda terrorist bombings, inspired by a "trusted" Islamic "man of peace" who actually advocates suicide bombings; all against the backdrop of an escalating war in Iraq and Afghanistan, a war that was initiated by the US and the UK, while another war involving Iran and Syria is being prepared.
Osama Bin Laden's terrorist association Al Qaeda has chosen this moment in history to attack London in what is the city's worst bombing attack since World War II, worse even than the past IRA bombings. It is a cold-blooded act indeed that has upset the G8 summit in Scotland. Are we now on the eve when the "melee" in Iraq becomes a regional Middle East war -- a trigger for a global conflict "that will bring them [us] all" into it?
And who is this "so false an antichrist?"
Note that since we are talking about an "antichrist" with a small "a" (in the sense that there are many "little" antichrists all over the world), it need not even be anyone well known.
I believe this person is directly and personally linked to "King Red" (London Mayor "Red" Ken Livington), and because he has deceived Red Ken by passing himself off as an Islamic moderate, when he was actually a promoter of terrorism, he is therefore "false":
London Mayor Defended 'Theologian of Terror'
By Sherrie Gossett
CNSNews.com Staff Writer
July 07, 2005(CNSNews.com) - London Mayor Ken Livingstone's previous support of a Muslim cleric who advocates suicide bombings may cause him some embarrassment as he now must speak for the city in the wake of Thursday's terrorist bombings.
Livingstone condemned the Thursday attacks as "mass murder," and added that "this was not a terrorist attack against the mighty or the powerful, it is not aimed at presidents or prime ministers, it was aimed at ordinary working-class Londoners."
Yet Livingstone has in the past labeled Sheikh Yusuf Al-Qaradawi a "man of peace" and a "moderate," despite the fact that Al-Qaradawi has supported suicide bombings and the targeting of American allies.
Livingstone welcomed Al-Qaradawi to London's City Hall last year as an honored guest, and the mayor appeared in a video shown at a solidarity conference for the sheikh on Feb. 17 of this year in Doha, Qatar. Livingstone has publicly defended the sheikh against critics in the media and various grassroots organizations.
The Anti-Defamation League has labeled Al-Qaradawi the "Theologian of Terror," while the website GayEgypt.com has dubbed him the "Dr. Goebbels of modern Egypt," for Al-Qaradawi's anti-homosexual rhetoric.
Al-Qaradawi is a prominent member of the Muslim Brotherhood and his fatwas, or theological rulings are said to influence millions of followers who consider him an authoritative scholar on Islamic issues.
Those fatwas are widely distributed through IslamOnline.net, a website for which Al-Qaradawi serves as an advisor, and via a popular weekly religious program on the Arab television network Al-Jazeera, which the sheikh co-hosts.
Al-Qaradawi's theological justification for suicide bombings is entitled, "Hamas Operations Are Jihad and Those Who [Carry it Out and] Are Killed are Considered Martyrs" and appears on a website linked to the Hamas terror organization.
The Middle East Research Institute has translated Al-Qaradawi's sermons directed at the U.S. and United Kingdom. During one sermon, on March 7, 2003, delivered at the Umar Bin-al-Khattab mosque in Doha, Al-Qaradawi stated: "O God, destroy the Zionist, the American, and the British aggressors. O God, shake the ground under them and protect us from them."
The complete article appears at http://www.cnsnews.com/news/viewstory.asp?Page=%
5CForeignBureaus%5Carchive%5C200507%5CFOR20050707g.html
An older meaning of the words "will have," in the context of this sentence, is "will suffer" (as in "will allow"). Thus, the mayor "allows" this "so false" (treacherous, deceptive) "an antichrist" (little antichrist) to inspire radical British Muslims to become suicide bombers with his "theology of terror." Yet, all the while, Al-Qaradawi presents himself as a "man of peace," deceiving even the Mayor of London with this false front.
The secondary meaning of "will have," in the context of the above line 3, of course, is to be "saddled with" or "burdened with" the results of brutal and appalling actions committed or inspired by someone (an antichrist) who is not what he appears to be.
Either meaning would apply well to this Al-Qaradawi, who has clearly "betrayed" ("false) the confidence the Mayor of London has placed in him.
If these suicide bombers can be linked to the above cleric, I would say the quatrain has been fulfilled -- if not actually, then at least archetypically.


From the desk of Robert NostraBOBus Egan
Wednesday, May 25, 2005 6:32 PM (Posted Friday, May 27, 2005 7:50 AM)
The news media is presently covering the Michael Jackson supposed child sexual abuse story with almost the same intensity as seen with the O. J. Simpson prolonged trial of the Century. At times it has even eclipsed very major news stories in the amount of attention being given to the situations involved.
The question now is did the 16th Century Seer
Nostradamus write prophetic lines concerning Michael Jackson and
the sordid situation presently in the news?
Yes he did.
The conclusions of Nostradamus might come as a very unpleasant surprise to some of the public on at least one of the very major issues involved in this now famed criminal case: parental responsibility and actions in regards to their children, especially their young sons. This matter is openly and forthrightly mentioned by Nostradamus in the last line of the Presaged prophecy.
It would be advisable to consider his final conclusion regarding this case and the portents involved. Every parent needs to become aware of his stated observation even though given from the 16th Century.
To find this 'event' in a verifiable Nostradamus work, in this case the Presages, calls for a comprehensive understanding of how Nostradamus would veil the true meanings of the words in use in partial obscurity.
It becomes a vital necessity to be able to withhold 'judgment' about a particular cryptic interpretation of the prophetic lines of the verse in question and under analysis, until the entire verse is considered in totality.
The following is a line by line analysis and cryptic interpretation and commentary on the words found in the prophecy by Robert NotraBOBus Egan of San Diego, California.
Nostradamus starts the alleged Michael Jackson verse with the opening line foretelling "The colored ones, ..." which can easily be interpreted as "The black ones,.."
Of course this, at first glance, is only a partial bit of supposedly vague information, and seems to give very little definitive information of any kind. However, when we simply recall the time of the serving of the search warrant on the property and home of Michael Jackson being the very time as the release by Sony recordings of his new album, and follow this closely, 'Number Ones'.
Now the supposedly beginning few words take on a much more meaningful possibility. As the verse lines are further analyzed, there is a very high likelihood Nostradamus is referring to:
The
'black' (Michael Jackson), a black superstar.
Then simply the word: ones.
Also, take notice of an only slightly veiled meaning hidden in the word 'ones.' A rearrangement of the four letters gives the 'phonetic' (a sounds like clue):
Sone (actual spelling: Sony) records.
The information now, potentially revealed, becomes: The Black [Sony] 'Ones'
Now, taken at face value, this is a bit of a stretch for the imagination and comprehension, for both the reader, and even myself the cryptic interpreter.
However, the next few words of the first line of the prophetic information begin to at least partially clarify why Nostradamus chose to begin the first line with these few words.
The very next piece of information is found in the given term, '... Holy Ones' which has the further definition of sacred, God like, or like unto God. This information comes directly from the Hebrew meaning for the name, once again, follow this closely, 'Michael.'
There now becomes a distinct possibility Nostradamus is perhaps foretelling of The Black Michael and his Sony record release
'Ones'
If so, this would give a very precise, to the day, timing of this November 2003 Nostradamus Prophecy, and set the stage for even more detailed information contained in the forthcoming three lines, and narrow the event to our present times with a very precise, but also very brief, detailing of the particulars involved.
There is one last word in the first line of this startling accurate prophecy, the plural word:
'malcontents'
... or as some interpretations of this line read, 'discontented' or more accurately, 'discontents.'
(Some translations additionally use, once again, the word 'ones'). However, the mental state of mind being referred to is called
'The Blues'
Now, a simple fact of current well known musical history.
This type music represents the very fame and record history of none other than the superstar Michael Jackson, at the beginning of his musical rise to fame, known for his lead in the Jackson Five musical group. The group was indeed known for the Blues (R/B, Soul).
The new Sony release of the album, 'Number Ones' is mainly composed of Michael Jackson's major hits of his past musical rise to fame and certainly identify the man and his style of music, shortly put, the Blues, or Rhythm & Blues and, or even Soul.

Once again, release occurring in the same time period of the extremely extensive, and said very revealing, search of Neverland, the home and child pleasure park of Michael Jackson in Santa Barbara County, California.
Nostradamus starts this second line by calling our attention to a second type of occurrence happening at the same time as Michael Jacksons 'Ones.' I contend the veiling of a name in the use of one of the alternative forms of the word:
'Sudden'
First, the Oxford English Dictionary gives an older spelling of the term with an 'i' included. This gives a phonetic equal to a very well known figure in the present case, the prosecuting District Attorney, Tom Sneddon. Please notice another potentially hidden letter: 'u' in a reversed position becomes the single letter 'n'.
This also sounds out to the sound of the name of the prosecuting district attorney. Incidentally, the word coup in a multi-linguistic interpretation gives the meaning of a sudden seizure taking place. Of course the simple spelling of a word in French can contain a totally different meaning in another language, and becomes a very clever veiling methodology put to use by Nostradamus.
To continue ... the word 'par can also have a variety of meanings, such as: because of, or possibly for the reason of.
Nostradamus seems to be revealing in
somewhat hidden fashion, a coup of Sneddon
because of someone identified in this prophecy as a
gay hermaphrodite.
In this case, none other than Michael Jackson himself!
(Jacksons physical appearance of his face has undergone a
great deal of noticeable changes and would be considered by most
to have very much brought out a somewhat youthful ... but very
feminine appearance.)
(Note: The use of the word gay in identifying a person of homosexual behavior or lifestyle did not exist as such in France in the 16th Century as a popular term.)
The seemingly plural use of the word could simply be identifying gays, meaning those who engage in homosexual behavior ... no matter what their age or preferences.
Once again, this can obviously be referring to more than just sex acts themselves. Michael Jacksons personality and even his very appearance is often identified as very femine and or gay by a large portion of the modern day population ... even though it seems not too frequently mentioned by the media or court representatives and participants. It almost seems a taboo to even mention it.
This appears to be a rather odd 16th century way of apparently identifying a person who exhibits homosexual behavior and practices. The term usually is meant to identify physical characteristics but it can also refer to a type personality or psychological characteristics. At times, the present use of the word can be used in a derogatory fashion.
The obvious question that needs to be answered by the final two lines contained in this most revealing prophecy revolve around Nostradamus actually foretelling the coup at NEVERLAND by using the name of the Park!
(I am taking the unusual step of revealing the pertinent information contained in the last two lines before a further cryptic analysis is presented. However, please follow closely the commentary on the last two lines and how the conclusions are obtained as to the true veiled information, especially in regards to the final verdicts in the case.)
Then, in the concluding line he tells of the L.A. sever and how it substantially affects the final outcome of the case ... making the two sons testimony weak. Because of this, Nostradamus seems to be revealing the final outcome of this famous case ... FOUND NOT GUILTY AS CHARGED!
Please stand by for the final cryptic decoding of the last two lines of the prophecy. Once his method of veiling is understood you will be able to comprehend how this information is forthcoming.
Stand by for the final commentary to be continued.
June 3rd, 2005 Update The completed commentary on Line 3 and Line 4 with cryptic analysis.
Nostradamus is famed for his occultation of the prophetic lines of verse. Here he continues to comment on the extensiveness of the search which involved dozens of special investigators and covered the vast entire park of pleasure and amusement.
Notice his use of the word: "part."
The veiling of the word "park" is easily seen here, simply by the changing of a single letter. This becomes a typical Nostradamus useage for the hiding of true meanings in many of the lines of his verses. The meaning now revealed includes the following information: "Of the greater Park to see,..."
The question becomes ... and is then answered ... in the final words of the verse line:
"...the time not come,"
Nostradamus gives us the answer as to what the name of the Park is: "Never" is the simple answer to the proposed riddle; a Park of no time:
'Never Park'
Or better put: NEVERLAND PARK
To continue to the final and most revealing last line of the verse.
PLEASE FOLLOW THE INFORMATION CLOSELY:
Nostradamus was known to use a single word that would actually hide two words. Thus, the single word: "Several" hides the term:
"La Sever"
Meaning the seperation, divorce and or the splitting. An even more exacting clue is only lightly veiled in the two letters: L A
Yes, in this particular case, with extreme exactness:
L.A. divorce... seperation (L.A. = Los Angeles)
The very next word in the prophetic line is:
"...amongst" which can mean in the
middle of ... or in the midst of... in this case a divorce ... a
seperation. It is rather cryptic when the next word in the
English is them, and as you will be able to readily see it
directly means the two parents involved in the seperation.
The question becomes what is the effect of this parental "L.A" seperation on the case of Michael Jackson?
The answer is contained in the final few words of the verse line.
Follow this closely, please.
Nostradamus simply tells us it will make, cause their 'soups to be weak.'
First, the Oxford English dictionary gives us the meaning of "soup." It means to be in a "delicate situation." The plural is used here as a possible reference to a multiplicity of 'delicate' situations during the time of the seperation proceedings in Los Angeles (L.A.)
Also, a crytic analysis of the word "soups" reveals a final bit of further detailed truth:
"S O U P S"
By the Nostradamus used method of the removing, changing or inversion of a letter, an entirely different word becomes apparent:
S o n s
(Yes, it is permissible to invert the orthographic formation of the "u" to an "n.") and ... remove or replace a single letter in solving the occulted meanings hidden in the verse. Also, the phonetic sounding of the "p" could potentially be revealing the sounding ot the word: "pee" which can mean: small, and with other possibilities present.
= small sons (?)
Finally, the verse lines seems to imply the L.A. parents in their seperation proceedings have made their sons case, could be referring to testimony here, "weak" ... meaning legally NOT EFFECTIVE or NOT CONVINCING.
Thus, the meanings seem to imply a verdict of NOT GUILTY for Michael Jackson!
Will it apply to the entire ten counts against him? Possibly ... or at least the counts regarding actual sexual contacts. It remains to be seen what happens in regards to the misdemeanor charges involving underage drinking.

May 8, 2005
Background: Abbot Joachim and the "R" Pope, Merlin and the Great German Anti-Pope
Yes, it is possible an 11th Century abbot, among other prophets, foresaw the coming of a cardinal named Ratzinger who would become pope. Lost among the many prophecies of Europe during the last 2,000 years is one that may indeed apply to the current pope:
"Whose name shall begin with R." Is there any question that the name RATZINGER begins with the letter "R"? Yet this appears to be about the pope who, in most prophecies, comes to power near or at the end of World War III along with "the Great Monarch" (whom Nostradamus names "Chiren" in the quatrains).
Then again, perhaps the "great Pontiff" comes to power before the great and terrible war begins and the "Great Monarch" (who is usually French) does not take action and defeat the enemies from "the East" until near the end of the war. Thus, speculation as to whether this monarch will be French president Jacques Chirac (Chiren?) or an as-of-yet unknown figure named "Henri" or "Henry" will remain a subject of debate until this leader destined to be the "first king" of Europe drives out the Eastern armies. However, if he is to be a descendent of Pepin the Short, he would have to be of Carolingian blood, long thought to be extinct.
Upon this issue of the "great Pontiff" many prophecies are in contradiction: some say the wartime pope flees Rome and dies in exile, there is no pope or only antipopes for a few years, and then another pope (the "great Pontiff") is elected and installed at the end of the world war; others say the wartime pontiff flees Rome, goes into temporary exile, and is restored to the Vatican when the war ends.
Which shall it be?
It is possible, therefore, for Pope Benedict XVI, like Benedict XV during World War I, to reign throughout World War III and crown the French president or a new monarch of France as emperor at the conclusion of the coming conflict.
On the other hand, there is a lengthy (too lengthy for this page) prophecy by Merlin that would suggest that Benedict XVI might come to be regarded as a "German Anti-Pope" after which another pope is restored as "true Pope" by the French monarch near the end of the war.
Note that Merlin somewhat contradicts Joachim who says the Pope will select the great Monarch and restore him to the long vacant imperial throne of the Charlemagne empire. Here it is the monarch who restores the Pope.
The Pope of the Crooked Cross
Although the following quatrain alone does not identify who "the great Pontiff" may be, it is important to set the stage for one that does. Note that a time will come when the Pope has his own army. No pope has had a real army of his own since the 16th Century. And since this prophecy was never fulfilled during the 16th Century, during or after the death of Nostradamus, it must be futuristic.
Apparently the Cardinal Legate will be taken hostage at sea by terrorists ("pirates"), troubling a shaky peace. The European Union will double the size of the Pope's private army, indicating he already has had one for some period of time.
Again we see a new pope with a private army. During the latter stages of World War III, he will order a task force into lower Germany, Austria, and the former Yugoslavia to drive out what foreign forces still remain in these countries. War criminals will be pursued and captured, weapons confiscated, prisoners released from death camps, and valuables restored to the survivors.
Note that in line 3 the Pope is associated with the "crooked cross of iron": Nostradamus' description in other quatrains of the Nazi swastika. Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger was a member of the Hitler youth and served in the German army for two years before deserting to America. For this reason, I believe this quatrain, at least, and possibly Quatrain 5.44 above, are about the German Pope Benedict XVI and events yet to come in the near future.
Now for those of you looking for a real "Black Pope" quatrain that may apply to Benedict XVI, Quatrain 6.16 is it. Not only that, but it tells us the Pope will be a German:
Quatrain 6.16
If Benedict XVI is the pope who flees the Vatican, it is to France he will likely find refuge. One would not expect his route to run from Rome through the south along the dangerous Mediterranean through Monaco and northwards to Avignon from Marseilles. These regions are the ones that will come under seige and attack by the southern wedge of the Eastern army. Rather, his route would likely be via Milan in Lombardy (northern Italy) to Swiss Ticino (also called Tessin), westward through the Alps, and into northeastern France. Whether he goes south to Avignon or not is difficult to say, but if he does he will die there.
It is even possible this is not connected with the pope who later dies in Avignon, but merely a temporary papal "trip" to northern Italy.
Here we see the Pope and all of his black-robed clergy sheltering in Lombardy. Nostradamus calls this pontificate "the temple of the Black Forest." Thus, we have both a "Black Pope" quatrain and one that identifies the Pope as being from the Black Forest in Germany.
Some of the following material appears in the remaining ten chapters of my book yet to be posted. You will note that when discussing "Wormwood," a great "comet," or "a spectacular celestial object," I do not use the term "Planet X" or "Nibiru." This is because back when I wrote the book, I hadn't heard of Planet X yet. Yet when you read my book, when it is all online, you will see I anticipated such a body appearing twice in this century, and often referred to Dr Immanuel Velikovsky's work when discussing it.
1) The Sabine: A pope who reigns only seven months when small schisms in the Church are developing that become a great schism upon his death. The following quatrain, Q8.94, also mentions him reigning only seven months and being murdered near Rome when Spain is under attack by Albanians. In Q5.46 this pope is mentioned again as being a Sabine (from NE Italy), who is elected as a schism develops and his pontificate then ridiculed by many -- all whilst Rome is under attack by Albaanians.
2) The pope who succeeds the Sabine also reigns for only seven months, but sees the schism come to an end and unity return to the Church before he dies.
Quatrain 5.46By the red hats quarrels and new
schisms
|
An Italian from northeastern Italy is elected pope. The College of Cardinals will argue vigorously amongst themselves as to his suitability for the high office after the election, setting the stage for a great schism in the Church. At that time the Aemathien's allies, the Albanians of Macedonia, Kosovo, and the nation of Albania, will launch some sort of missile attack against central Italy from across the Adriatic Sea, causing great "injury." |
Quatrain 8.93Seven months, no longer, will he
hold the papacy,
|
This continues the theme of the pope elected from northeastern Italy. His term of office will end with his death after only seven months. A great schism will follow: the first in the history of the Catholic Church since the Great Schism of the West in 1378. What will cause the split is unclear: line 3 suggests the election of an antipope or possibly a properly elected one who will not be supported by all the free nations of the West. However, unlike the forty-year schism of over 600 years ago, this one will last for only seven months, after which a new pope or the one in power in line 3 is recognized. |
Quatrain 8.94Before the lake where the dearest
one was destroyed
|
Lakes Bracciano and Nemi are nearest Rome, but it is difficult to actually know which of at least a dozen lakes Nostradamus is alluding to. The "dearest one" who is persecuted by the Albanians for seven months is the Sabine pope. He will die with seven months remaining to the war and another pope, an antipope, or the Cardinal Legate will reign in his stead while the Church is gripped by a great schism. African- controlled Spain will be attacked by Albanian forces allied to the Aemathien. |
3) Paul the Celibate, pope-in-exile who dies at Avignon ("three leagues from the Rhone"). He may or may not also be the pope who is murdered along with his clergy between two rivers "when blooms the Rose" in Q2.97 (Avignon lies between two rivers) and likewise in the Third Secret of Fatima.
4) It is impossible at this time to determine if the The Rose Pope and The Fatima Pope are two different popes or the same pope. But one of them is likely Paul the Celibate.
Quatrain 8.46Paul the celibate will die three
leagues from the Rhone
|
This pope is also likely to be the pope
who flees the Vatican when a great star burns (Q2.41)
since the Palace of the Popes in Avignon, the old
Vatican-in-exile until 1378, would be the logical place
for him to escape to. The Pope dies three leagues (nine miles) from Avignon. Whether this is a misnomer for Pope Benedict XVI or a future Pope Paul VII is unknown. The major Western allies mentioned are France (the cock), the United States (the eagle), and Great Britain (the three royal brothers: Charles, Andrew, and Edward). |
Quatrain 2.41The great star for seven days will
burn,
|
In this quatrain we have unmistakable
mention of a spectacular comet. It is a "great
star" and will "burn" for seven days and
nights. The double sun in line 2 can be interpreted as
either a visual aberration caused by a comets
gaseous shell or tail or as nuclear fireballs appearing
on the horizon of the Popes field of view
overlooking Vatican City. If a nuclear attack on central Italy is what is being described in the second line it may well come from Moammar Gadhafi in the Tyrrhenian Sea or ICBMs fired from Iran. On the other hand the second sun may be the comet itself which could appear sun-sized if its shell is large enough or it is close to the earth. This comet will be something much brighter and far more spectacular than Comet Hale-Bopp. |
At this time the Pope will be forced to flee the Vatican by night, while "the great mastiff" howls with fear. As subsequent verses will attest, he will make his new residence in Avignon, France. It is for that reason I believe this quatrain to be an example of a "recurring" prophecy. Several chapters after this one another pope will also escape the Vatican by night during a fourth global conflict when, yet again, another star is blazing in the heavens: the dreaded star of Revelation, Wormwood. But this time his destination will not be France, but Tunisia.
5) The Pope from ancient France, one of several popes called "the great Pontiff" -- a pope who comes to power at the end of World War 3 who reigns for so many years that he is still pope when World War 4 breaks out. He also flees the Vatican, but finds refuge in Tunisia rather than southern France. Later he is taken captive and dies.
Quatrain 8.4Into Monaco the cock will be
received,
|
It is at this point that the person
Nostradamus calls "the great Pontiff"
throughout so many of the quatrains first makes his
appearance. He is a French cardinal who will be elected
over a Spanish candidate for the papal seatvacant
since the death of "Paul the Celibate." The weakened eagle is the United States, once the world's only superpower, devastated by the Great Cataclysm and selective nuclear strikes. France, the cock, will emerge as the seat of an expansive Holy European empire and thus become the greatest superpower of the 21st Century. The new pope's promise to the Moslem world, whatever it may be, will be one he will one day regret having made. A fourth global war is forecast to occur near the end of his very long reigna Vatican reign which will endure for over thirty years. |
Quatrain 2.41The great star for seven days will
burn,
|
Clearly Quatrain 2.41 must be intended to represent a similar event in the heavens happening during the flight of Paul the Celibate to Avignon and the French pontiff's escape to Tunisia. History does often repeat itself, albeit, imprecisely. Two popes named Pius were held prisoner by Napoleon, the first dying in captivity. Two more popes named Pius were forced to contend with the forces of fascism and nazism in the persons of Benito Mussolini and Adolf Hitler. Is it so strange then that Nostradamus foresaw two more popes who will escape the Vatican and seek refugeeach in a different countryduring a time of great trouble when a spectacular celestial object is visible in the sky? I wouldnt at all be surprised if both pontiffs end up bearing the same name. |
6) The nephew of the Pope from France (made a saint after WW4) who later becomes pope himself, but is murdered by seven cardinals, one an evil cardinal who then becomes pope.
Quatrain 10.30Nephew
and blood of the newly created saint,
|
The "great Pontiff" who died in
captivity is declared a saint: a rare event indeed in
this future period when sainthood will come to be
discouraged. Much to the chagrin of those who believe
Malachy's prophecies that only one pope remains after
Benedict XVI, the great Pontiff's nephew is elected pope. The "great Pontiff" refers to the French pope who came to power during the end of the Third World War and reigned until his abduction and death during the latter years of World War IV. Here we are told that the nephew pontiff will be murdered by seven conspirators. Even though the guilty ones will be prosecuted and punished, their order will later produce an evil cardinal who will one day become pope. |
7) The Black Pope. The "black red" who becomes pope (the evil cardinal).
Quatrain 6.57He
who was well to the front of the realm,
|
A cruel king whose advisor is an evil
cardinal destined to be pope succeeds his uncle as
emperor. HERE IS YET ANOTHER "BLACK POPE" QUATRAIN: The order responsible for murdering the nephew of the canonized pontiff will produce a wicked cardinal who will attain the Holy See. The emperor's evil genius will ascend to the Vatican. The reign of this pope, along with the diabolic excesses of the emperor, will eventually lead to religious wars, the downfall of Catholicism, and a revolution which will exalt paganism. |
8) A pope who dies at Reggio when a strange space object burns and swells the corneas of people looking at it and causes it to snow in summer.
Quatrain 10.70The
eye because of an object will become quite swollen,
|
July 2126 (Brian Marsden)In 1992, U.S. astronomer Brian Marsden calculated that a newly discovered comet named Swift-Tuttle would collide with the earth in August 2126. In a later revision of his calculation, he concluded that the comet will pass by uneventfully in July 2126, but warned that a two-week perturbation in its orbit would create a direct collision course with Earth in August. Mr. Marsden, I might add, had nothing personally to do with applying Comet Swift-Tuttle or the date of its appearance with this quatrain. |
No pope has ever died at Reggio, a few miles southeast of Parma, and none of the popes we have thus far discussed who appear in Les Propheties have been predicted to either. It appears from the sound of this quatrain that a comet will pass closely enough to create eye disorders and bizarre weather conditions for our descendants, but not near enough to create the sort of catastrophic havoc of a Velikovsky comet or the biblical Wormwood. I suspect that the "object" in question is a comet since it is "great and fiery" and is obviously viewed traversing the heavens (since those who gaze upward upon it experience eye irritation). The dead pope must be the emperor's friend and counselor, the black-hearted cardinal who attains the Vatican through a rigged election.
9) A pope who dies during a great Deluge in Europe that occurs when the Catholic Church falls. END OF CATHOLIC CHURCH.
Quatrain 8.11A
multitude of people appear at Vicenza,
|
Germans assemble in Vicenza to protest
against the provisional imperial government set up by the
pope. A great French religious leader, possibly the
Broadsword, is defeated in Genoa. At this time one of the
major Roman basilicasSt. Peter's or St. John
Lateranis damaged or gutted by fire. Line 4
anticipates that another religious leader, possibly a
pagan, will organize a force of his own against both
Catholics and Protestants. This quatrain appears to forecast the collapse of the Catholic Church in December. Global warming continues, producing colossal flooding of the Garonne River. Bridges, buildings, and walls are swept away, and the city of Toulouse is completely submerged in water. Again, the name Matronne appears which may be connected to the emperor of this period. |
10) The great Vicar of the Cape. After a long period of dormancy (almost 70 years), the Catholic Church and a Final Pope (aka "the great Vicar of the Cape") is resurrected by the next-to-last political leader of Europe ("the third King of the North") who reigns just before the beast ("the Antichrist") appears; the beast then will persecute and kill this pope along with all Christians alive at that time.
Epistle to Henry II --Then the third Northern king, hearing the complaint of the people of his principal title, shall raise up so great an army, shall go through the limits of his last ancestors and progenitors, that they will all be set up again in their first estate. The great Vicar of the Cape [the Pope] shall be restored to his former estate, but desolate and altogether forsaken, shall then go back to the sanctuary that was destroyed by Paganism. The Old and New testament will be thrust out and burnt. After that shall the Antichrist be the infernal prince. And in this last era all the kingdoms of Christianity and also of the infidels shall quake ... |

Above right is a woodcut by the Swedish prophet Paracelsus depicting the Final Pope of Rome being forced into a swirling stream to drown by the army of the Antichrist.
The "lost thing discovered" may be Catholicism itself, dead for nearly a century. However, I suspect it is a reference to a tomb which will be excavated shortly after the last pope in history is installed (see next chapter). The great "Pastor" initially will be worshipped almost as a god: a trifle bit grandiose for those Nostradamians who insist that Pasteur refers to Louis Pasteur. It is true that the last cycle of the moon was completed in 1889, thus adding credibility to the notion that this quatrain applies to the founding of the Institute Pasteur on November 14, 1889. However, the current lunar cycle, certainly the greatest cycle of all since Nostradamus considers it the last in human history, will be completed in 2243. The pope will reign until about 2238 or 2239, just as the moon is in the process of completing her grandest of cycles. Then he will be "dishonoured": discredited and forsaken by the enemies of God.

Quatrain 3.3 A catastrophic earthquake devastates India which could affect adjacent regions such as Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Bangladesh, or Myanmar. It may become apparent that this is no ordinary earthquake as seismologists warn of more "superquakes" in the days ahead. Line 4 may portend a Yugoslav-Albanian conflict that will spread throughout the Balkans, forcing neighboring Greece (Corinth) and Turkey (Ephesus) to take or consider taking military action. Then again, the "perplexity" afflicting both countries may be the result of more earthquake activity.
This and another quatrain, 2.52, are quite ambiguous about what action Greece and Turkey are actually taking. A future Greco-Turkish conflict is certainly not a foregone conclusion despite recent friction since 1996. Other quatrains indicate that both Greece and Turkey will be invaded by Iran and its allies, so it may well be that the two will be allies rather than adversaries.
The last time this astrological conjunction occurred was on March 29, 1998 and July 2 and August 1, 2000. I havent access to any information as to when the conjunction will next take place; however, I am assured that it is a recurring one. As I discussed in the previous chapter, this conjunction also occurred, according to John Hogue's astrological advisor, Dan Oldenburg (1994), in December 1995 and March 1996. Around that time (January 30 and 31, 1996) Greece and Turkey nearly went to war over uninhabited islets in the Aegean Sea. This was accompanied by a massive terrorist bombing in Sri Lanka ("the bottom of Asia") and a powerful 7.0 earthquake in southern China ("the depths of Asia").
The astrological influence struck again in March 1998, and the quatrain was fulfilled again in a somewhat convoluted fashion. There was extreme drought in parts of the southern hemisphere and lower northern hemisphere due to El Niño activity around March 29, 1998 and for some months after.
The "report" of an "earthquake" in the Indian subcontinent throws us a curve since one did not occur. However, the exact translation of line 3 is "at the bottom [or depth] of Asia a trembling of the earth is reported." "Trembling of the earth" or "earth tremble" is often interpreted and translated by Nostradamians as "earthquake." But there are other phenomena, some man-made, which can cause the earth to tremble. The earth did indeed "tremble" at the "bottom of Asia" in May when India set off a series of underground nuclear tests, and it was "reported" extensively on CNN and other news channels for days. Pakistan quickly followed suit. The "trembling of the earth" evolved from a news story into a nuclear crisis.
However, the "perplexity" Nostradamus envisioned Greece and Turkey being afflicted by was a bit overrated. The focus at the time was Kosovo, a province in southern Yugoslavia, not Turkey or Greece. One possible Greek angle may have been the uprisings in Macedonia in March followed by an exodus of ethnic Albanian refugees into that country, and the fact that Athens was concerned about where the Crisis in Kosovo might eventually lead (but then again the war in Bosnia gave the Greeks headaches too, from time to time). For its part, also in March, Turkey pledged troops if NATO decided to use military force against Serbia.
As for the 2000 conjunctions, at this writing (August 9, 2000) Greece and Turkey, along with Bulgaria, have suffered from a series of major fires since July sparked by the worst heat wave to afflict southeastern Europe in memory. At one point, Athens was threatened and Corinth was ablaze. Meanwhile, India is experiencing one of the worst deluges in its history, with millions of people displaced.
It is quite possible that this quatrain is an example of a repetitive prophecy.
UPDATE (12/28/04): As we now know, the next terrible India quake finally came five months later in January 2001. I had discovered a base 7 vector that quite nearly agreed with the Oldenburg astrological dating and, thus, had predicted a major India quake for September 2000 on Year 2000: Part Two. The astrological dating was five-to-six months premature; my dating turned out to be four months premature.
Now, with the above map, we can see exactly what Nostradamus most probably intended by the "bottom of Asia": Indonesia, the giant island Sumatra, Malaysia, Thailand, Cambodia, the Maldives, Sri Lanka, and southern India. As seismologists move into panic mode and warn of more potential superquakes and tsunamis, Serbia and Montenegro send their armies south, fearful that Kosovo will soon explode again as it did in March. Indeed, the whole Ukraine crisis, along with the Albanian hostage crisis in Greece, has had nerves rattled not only in the Balkans, but throughout Central and Eastern Europe. Meanwhile, Turkey has threatened it will invade northern Iraq after elections are held.
With some perplexity already in Greece a short time ago, and much more to come if the war involving Albania, Kosovo, and Macedonia breaks out in February/March 2005 as I have predicted on 2005 (Part Two), we may be witnessing the ultimate fulfillment of Quatrain 3.3.
One may ask if I predicted the horrific quake that struck Indonesia and created a tsunami that has claimed 60,000 lives, and may reach 100,000 when all is said and done. I feel I did, but was unfortunately off by many months in one case, though very specific and correct in all details, and in another instance I was a bit closer in time, expecting a killer quake not seen in a great many years, anticipating it to strike in July/August 2004, not December 2004, but off slightly as to location. As the casualties continue to mount, I am coming to believe the super-quake I intended for China struck a bit farther south, instead hitting Indonesia. The base 7 precedent for this earthquake is the mammoth quake that struck China in July 1976, 28 (4 x 7) years ago, resulting in hundreds of thousands dead:
BASE 7 PREDICTION FULFILLED!Massive Earthquake Shakes Indonesia, Tsunami May Follow NEW PREDICTION: 1/23/03 - "February 2003 looks very ominous for the islands of Indonesia. The earthquake that strikes the region will quite possibly be classified as a "great" earthquake (above 8.0). It may generate a rather sizeable tsunami." On 2003 (Part One) page. Powerful Earthquake Brings Great Destruction to China NEW PREDICTION: 9/18/03 - "This will be no ordinary temblor. It will be at least a 7.9 on the Richter scale or higher. Hundreds of thousands, possibly millions, will die. Look for it around July/August 2004, but prepare for it throughout the year." On 2004 (Part Two) page. |

Also, if I am correct about another quatrain, Quatrain 9.31, a "great" earthquake in northern Italy should be coming soon -- one that will strike Mortara, thirty miles northwest of Milan. It will be accompanied by major flooding in southern Italy. The city of Florence will be submerged. The temblor will be so powerful that a seismic reaction and tsunami will reach England herself, sinking Cornwall and the Scilly Islands. The base 7 vector given by me for a super-quake to strike northern Italy is September/October 2004. It may or may not match the quake in Quatrain 9.31, but it will be large (or there is a 26.5% chance I will be wrong). If this temblor occurs, at Easter 2005 another major quake shall rock London. This is predicted on 2004 (Part Three).
These superquakes may be the ones that precede World War III "in the spring" in Quatrain 2.52. Returning to my book, Nostradamus and the Final Age:
Quatrain 2.52
As the Balkans conflict worsens, spreading southwards to Macedonia and the surrounding regions, it is inevitable that Athens and Ankara will take sides, thus widening the war.
If Nostradamus did foresee a war between Greece and Turkey during a time of tremendous earthquake activity, this is the closest he ever gets to describing it. If not for the mention of the earthquakes, this quatrain could well be applied to the Balkan conflicts of 1912-13. The likely cause of a new Greco-Turkish conflict would be a renewal of the conflict in Kosovo, and its subsequent spreading to Albania and Macedonia. Macedonian and Serb aggression against ethnic Turks and Albanians could pit the two NATO allies against each other. Another potential cause of confrontation between Greece and Turkey could arise over discord on the disputed island of Cyprus.
On the other hand, this quatrain does not absolutely establish that Greece and Turkey are adversaries. It is not impossible that both are patrolling the "two seas" as NATO allies against a future Arab coalition in the Adriatic and Eastern Mediterranean. If so, this verse is better applied to events a few years ahead.
This prophecy is not dated astrologically.
If 2.52 does apply to a Greco-Turkish conflict arising out of an ever-widening war in Yugoslavia, it appears that tremendous earthquake activity will also take place over the course of several nights sometime during the spring. The "two efforts in succession" either suggests that two powerful earthquakes or two major offensives will occur at that time. I suspect most of the earthquake activity will occur in Turkey, but Greece may also be shaken by temblors. If these seismic events are unusually powerful they may be related to the horrendous natural cataclysms predicted by the American prophet Edgar Cayce for the early 21st Century.
Alternatively, the "two efforts" may apply to two spring offensives: one in the Balkans and the other in the Middle East or the Pacific. We cannot be sure just who the deux vaillans are who stir up war. If this is related to Daniel Chapter 8, then they must be Iran and Turkey. If not, they could be Greece and Turkey, Russia and NATO, or again a reference to Judeo-Christianity versus Islam. The two seas in which the Greek and Turkish navies are engaged are presumably the Aegean and the Adriatic. In the event of a wider Balkan conflict involving Bulgaria, one of the two seas patrolled by Turkey could be the Black Sea.
