Nostradamus And The War In Iraq

Continuing with the Grassy Knoll Institutes ongoing deciphering of the famous Nostradamus Quatrains, I present to you perhaps a quatrain pertaining to Saddam Hussein.

Century IX, Quatrain 76

With the repacious and bloody king,
sprung from the pallet of the inhuman Nero.
Between two rivers, the military on the left,
He will be murdered by a bald young man.

Line one refers to the bloody king, or Saddam Hussein. Hussein ruled with an iron fist for almost 30 years and slaughtered anyone who defied him.

Line two mentions the inhuman Nero. Could this mean the bombs dropped on Iraq erupting the city in an immense fireball.

Line three zero's in on the location, between two rivers. Two well known rivers, the Tigris and Euphrates run through Iraq. The coalition forces crossed both rivers and secured strategic cities and ports in their push towards Hussein defeat.

Line four says Saddam will be murdered by a bald young man. Could Nostradamus be describing a coalition soldier in full gear including helmet. A man would look like he was bald wearing a helmet and most of the force are young men.

Or, the executioner wearing a black hood concealing himself could also be the reference here when Hussein was hanged.

Nostradamus And The Modern World

Nostradamus was a 16th century prophet and astrologer who supposedly foresaw the future of the world. His technique used was a form of meditation where at night, he would sit alone peering into his brass tripod that was centered with a flame.

From there, he would look into the future. He wrote his quatrains of the centuries but realizing what powerful knowledge these quatrains were, he mixed the centuries and quatrains up with only him knowing what was to become. He had hoped that man and woman would take heed and heart of the quatrains and change the world for the better.

To begin, to get a feel for Nostradamus' writing skill and technique, the following are his first two quatrains that begins his Prophecies of the Centuries.

CENTURY 1....QUATRAIN 1

Sitting alone at night in secret study,
It rests solitary on the brass tripod.
A slight flame comes out of the emptiness,
Making successful that which would have been in vain.

CENTURY 1....QUATRAIN 2

The wand in the hand is placed in the middle of the legs of the tripod.
He sprinkles with water both the hem of the garment and it's foot.
Fear, a voice runs trembling through the sleeves .
Divine splendor, the god sits nearby.

In these quatrains, Nostradamus explains how he is able to see into the future. All elements of ancient magic is present. It's night, he is alone, the flame of the tripod and his wand are his clairvoyant devices. Remember, this was in the 1500' s when Nostradamus recorded his prophecies and magic not science was believed in most. He would stare into the flame until it became cloudy and the images of the future would then appear.

He was also able to not only see the future, but hear the future, as when he said a voice runs trembling. He is also afraid of his new found ability but becomes settled and at ease when the god sits next to him. (see the last two lines)

The first Quatrain I will decipher will be one associated with the United States and the World Trade Center. Mind you, these are merely interpretations of mine.

Stay Tuned.
