Chapter 62 Nostradamus' prophecy

What shocking predictions did Nostradamus make in the book "The Centuries" that shocked future generations?Those prophecies that have happened and have not yet happened are still perplexing people in later generations to spare no effort to make various interpretations of this classic book of prophecy. One of the most interesting prophecies is that Nostradamus predicted his own death. In the last days of Nostradamus' life, he may have realized that he would not live for too long, so he left a prophecy when he was dying.He said to his friends who came to visit him: "I will never see you again alive, and soon I will lie stiff between the chair and the bed." At that time, everyone thought it was Noza Damas was talking nonsense in a daze, but people would have discovered his stiff body the next morning.Just like the prophecy he gave himself, even the posture of death is not bad at all.

The prophecy that made Nostradamus so popular was that he accurately uttered the news of the death of King Henry II of France at that time.In "The Centuries", there is a poem that reads: The young lions will conquer the old ones, In a one-on-one battle, He will pierce the eyes in the golden cage, Two wounds made one, He died a brutal death. In the traditional European values ​​at that time, lions were often used to describe kings or nobles, so this prophecy was regarded as a speculation about the fate of the king as soon as it appeared.It has even been stated publicly that the poem clearly states that the king died in a duel at the end.

Four years later, in 1559, Henry II shot guns with a young nobleman at a wedding banquet.Unexpectedly, an accident happened, and the broken spear head pierced Henry II's solid helmet and sunk deep in his eyes.Finally, Henry II died in excruciating pain. Nostradamus's prophecy was obviously successful, but many people have expressed strong condemnation of him for it.Fortunately, more people just expressed shock, but did not take other unexpected actions. Another prediction that shocked the world was an accurate prediction made by Nostradamus about the French Revolution.He clearly pointed out the fate of Louis XVI in this prophecy, which is written in this poem:

Greedy for ease and comfort, the country that was originally obtained, But because of excessive tolerance and negligence, In an instant exaggerated credulity the seemingly faithful wife, Mercy can only send her to a dead end. Judging from the superficial meaning of the poem, this is just an image of a weak and incompetent husband who only knows how to obey his wife's pillow. Even if he has the brilliance of humanity such as compassion and kindness, he will only become the biggest joke in the end.This role belongs to none other than Louis XVI.After Louis XVI ascended the throne, all government decisions were swayed by Queen Marie Antoinette from Austria.But in fact, the queen doesn't understand government affairs at all, she can only do makeup, hold balls, decorate villas, and arrange gardens in the luxurious palace.Under her profligacy, the French government has long been in financial crisis.A series of subsequent reform measures did not achieve good results.

After the French Revolution, two people were sent to the guillotine one after another.This prophetic poem written by Nostradamus describes the personalities of the two people in detail, and people have to admire his prophetic ability. In addition, Nostradamus successfully predicted Napoleon's defeat in Spain.When Napoleon successfully came to power, he led the invincible French army to fight north and south, and almost the whole of Europe surrendered at his feet for a while.Taking advantage of the civil strife in Spain, Napoleon led his army to launch the strongest offensive here.However, Nostradamus was not optimistic about this attack in "The Centuries". He wrote:

Flags wave in the interior of Spain, From the frontier at the corner of the shouting procession, The strife passed near the bridge of Leni, The legion was repulsed by the masses. At the beginning of the 19th century, it was the time when the wave of the French Revolution gradually spread.There were also riots in Spain, and people began to spurn and oppose the king at that time, in order to establish a new political situation.Napoleon saw the opportunity and led his troops to march into this neighboring country.Napoleon, who had good wishes, was eventually opposed by the Spaniards. Driven by the national complex, they did not need outsiders to garrison the Spanish territory in the name of help.Later, Britain also intervened in the Spanish dispute.At that time, the British army had successfully occupied Portugal, and they fanned the flames and vigorously advocated the Spanish national revenge. The Spaniards finally united and took up arms to drive Napoleon back to his hometown.

This failure is a lingering shadow in Napoleon's political career, and it is also a major sign of the Napoleon Empire's transition from prosperity to decline.In the verses in "The Centuries", "Reni Bridge" is just a place name in Spain, and the turning point of the whole war took place here. Nostradamus did not let go of their old opponent in the book-Britain.Britain and France had been jockeying for supremacy on the European continent, and there was even a covert colonial rivalry abroad.Nostradamus even cursed France's old enemy in his poem: The leaders of the royal family had no choice but to bow their heads,

Blood spurted out of the mouth, and the blood flowed profusely. Anglican rulers let the kingdom breathe, Like a severed tree branch, it loses its vitality and lingers in Tunisia. In "World War II", the only thing that Britain was better than France was that it was not occupied by the German army, but it did not avoid being bombed by the German army. The industrial facilities of the entire UK were severely damaged, and the foundation of the national economy was already crumbling. .Although the invaders were finally defeated with the help of the United States, the name of the empire on which the sun never sets never came back.

After the "World War II", Britain's overseas colonies declared independence one after another, and the empire that once dominated the world could not escape the fate of decline.The prophetic poem of Nostradamus foretells the decline and fall of the empire on which the sun never sets.The poem tries its best to describe that Britain, which has lost its former style, cannot escape the fate of going downhill under the support of the leader's coolies.As it is said in the prophecy, "Like a severed branch, it loses its vitality and lingers in Tunisia". These are all Nostradamus prophecies that have been verified. While it is amazing, there are many unverified prophecies that no one knows when they will happen in the book "The Centuries".They have been sleeping, waiting for the right time to wake up.
