Studying and translating the cryptic four line prophecies and predictions of Nostradamus is something that some people have devoted decades of their lives too for the past 600 years. The listening world is just as fascinated with learning what he has foretold now, whenever his name is mentioned millions come to rapt attention. Born in 1503, Michel de Notredame, or Nostradamus is said to be the greatest prophet the world has ever known. As a Jewish family living 16th century France, Renee and Jacques de Notredame were forced to convert to Christianity by the compulsory edit of King Louis XII. Michel matured into an accomplished physician, naturalist and astrologist who was aware of his ability to foretell the future at the age of 42. He had visions and also used water and mirrors to assist in his forecasting of many events that reach far into the still distant year of 3797. Nostradamus' first published predictions began with the yearly Almanacs in 1550, later under the name of Prognostications. The books known as the Centuries were actually written due to a dear friend of Michel's urging, one Jean-Ayme de Chavigny. In March 1555, the first edition of The True Centuries was published and the complete set is of four Centuries containing mysterious and somewhat vague quatrains of future predictions. The prophecies in these four books written by Nostradamus have been found to foretell events and people from his time until today. The 4 line prophecies were purposefully written in murky wording as explained by Michel himself in the preface of The True Centuries, his first full book of astrological prophecy. Due to this fact, it is difficult for anyone to interpret his quatrains. Most academics will tell you that the popular associations to real world events are for the most part misinterpreted or mistranslated, both mistakenly and deliberately. All of the Nostradamus predictions are strange and gloomy, involving disease and plagues; natural disasters like earthquakes, floods, and droughts, along with wars and rumor of wars, murders, invasions, and battles. Most of his quatrain future scenes do not give a date, some concern one person or a small group and others cover entire cities or regions. He tells of a coming invasion of Europe by Muslims and the arrival of the Antichrist. Not one of Nostradamus' quatrains state they are referring to the end of the world, yet many of his visionary predictions are linked to end of time prophecy in the scriptures. Credited with accurately predicting the World Wars, the death of Princess Diana, the rise of Napoleon and Adolf Hitler, to the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks and now Nostradamus has been connected with 2012 prophecy. The most recent of his predictions interpreted to current events are those of the attack on the World Trade Center and 2012 end of the world. While some of his quatrains are perhaps close, the interpretations for 9/11 were found to be deliberately mistranslated. This involved a college student's paper being adopted as an actual translation, when it was actually rewritten for the pupil's academic purposes. The burning tower said to show the destruction of the WTC, comes from the Lost Book of Nostradamus, as do other water colors done by an accomplished artist. Quatrains that have yet to be connected to a real world event like plagues killing thousands in London and water turning to blood have been tied to the Seven Angels trumpets and vials in Revelations message for the end of time. The 2012 doomsday scenario is a perfect fit for the ancient seer's doom and gloom predictions. The prophecy of a great comet does have an uneasy echo to the return of Nibiru, and catastrophic natural disasters are also mirroring other 2012 predictions. 2012 discovery only comes when searching for the truth about 2012 and how to survive.
