Almost everyone has heard of Nostradamus, the man who made all these predictions about the famous 500 years ago. Nostradamus (Michel de Nostradame) was born in Saint Remi, southern France in 1503 and was raised as a Catholic. He was a French physician and astrologer. Nostradamus was a doctor by profession and was known for using innovative methods of treatment of victims of bubonic plague in the 16th century. Nostradamus reliance on sanitary precautions support its growing reputation as a doctor. His use of innovative methods of treatment and its success in treating patients have earned him a reputation as a healer specially gifted. Unfortunately, Nostradamus lost his wife and two sons in a fire. Nostradamus also received a broad religious education. He studied ancient history and the occult, including the beliefs and religion of ancient Babylon.
Nostradamus is perhaps the most famous scryer, which means looking at the practice of the crystal. It is believed that the account of a small vessel of water set on a tripod brass as a scrying tool, which looked and received images of the future events. Nostradamus is said to be anointed with water before going to work.
The most famous is his prophecies and predictions. Nostradamus wrote 1000 quatrains (four lines of verse) that is divided into 10 parts called the century in 1555. Were generally numbered in Roman numerals IX century arose as a set prophetic quatrains no chronological order, which inspired his students to change them.
Nostradamus wrote in the early modern French, many archaic words derived from Latin and Greek. Has always hidden its role in anagrams, symbolism and mythological allusions. He explains that this was done to avoid persecution by the Inquisition. Nostradamus is not known cheerful prophecy. He used the ancient practice of divination that dates back to to ancient Babylon. He said that is also used in the ancient dark arts to "conjure up" Spiritual terrifying entity who gave him their visions for the future. Nostradamus deliberately obscures the name of this entity, because he knows it can be dangerous if it has been discovered by the witch hunters of those times. Nostradamus provides details of upcoming events that are too close to be coincidence but will have no sense whatsoever, when first published.
It is considered by some to provide it, many great events in history, including an increase in and fall of Napoleon and Hitler, the bombing of Hiroshima and the assassination of U.S. President John F. Kennedy. Nostradamus predicted that the United States to war in Afghanistan and Iraq. Provides On the hunt for Bin Laden, and that it escalate into World War III. He also seemed to predict Nuclear War in this decade, once in 1999 AD and 2012 AD. Nostradamus did not do state that the earth will be destroyed.
The names of three antichrists Nostradamus, who will wreak havoc in the world. The first is the Antichrist, Napoleon, Hitler the second and the third antichrist as Mabuse, the name of the Arab terrorist who will use nuclear weapons against the West. He wrote, that the third antichrist will come to the region "east of the Black Sea." Nostradamus wrote: eastern man will come out of his seat and the cross Apennines to France. Now what does this mean nobody knows. He also wrote about the coming Avatar, World Teacher, who will save the world.
Nostradamus made many predictions about the Comet or Comet Planet called Nibiru, which transfers the land shortly after 2000 AD causing global destruction. says that the comet will be visible on the ground for seven days. It has a lot of quatrains asteroid impact on the sea. Nostradamus found in the usual French, that his prophecies extend to the year 3797th Nostradamus attributed to his gift of prophecy and revelation of the divine inspiration and continuous calculation and says further that such events can be foretold naturally by the celestial bodies and the spirit of prophecy. Nostradamus died in 1566 and his most popular work of Les Propheties. Let's just hope that his work was only a prophecy and nothing more.
