Description

The renowned prophet Nostradamus (Michel de Nostradame) is the best known and most accurate mystic and seer of all times. Nostradamus began writing his prophetic verses in the city of Salon in 1554. They are divided into ten sections called Centuries (which refers to the number of verses in each section, not to a unit of 100 years). The Centuries were published in 1555 and 1558, and have been printed continuously since. Nostradamus had the visions that he later recorded in verse while looking into the water or the flame late at night, sometimes helped by herbal stimulants, sitting on a brass tripod. The resulting quatrains (four-line verses) are oblique and elliptical and use puns, anagrams, and allegorical images. Most quatrains are open to multiple interpretations, and some are meaningless. Some of them are frightening, literal descriptions of events, giving specific or quasi-specific names, geographic locations, astrological configurations and sometimes real dates. It is this quality of imprecision and specificity that allows each new generation to reinterpret Nostradamus. The key to dating Nostradamus' always intriguing and popular predictions has now been discovered! Award-winning author Mario Reading finally found the long-searched-for key, and with it, has uncovered the secret connection that links the seer's various quatrains. With this new knowledge, he can interpret these astonishing predictions in formerly unimagined ways...and give us a glimpse of what the future holds. Among the amazing finds: Nostradamus foresaw the Twin Towers disaster, the Iraq War, the devastating tsunamis, and the flooding of New Orleans. But even more, Reading's groundbreaking translations and sharp commentary state precisely what is still to come. His sometimes extraordinary and shocking forecasts include the demise of the British Monarchy, the breakup of the European Union, and Global War.
