THE GREAT MUTATIONS IN NOSTRADAMUS’ PROPHECIES 2000CE to 2100CE.

Near the start of his Preface to his Prophecies in March 1555 Nostradamus wrote that despite his fears for how his work would be received he would give way and by dark and cryptic sentences tell of the causes of the future mutation of mankind, especially the most urgent ones and the ones [he] perceived. This statement tells us much about Nostradamus and even more about what we can expect to find hidden in the obscurities of his verse and the illumination of this is the point of my work. My recent blogs have shown how verses can be resolved using a set of simple rules based around Nostradamus’ own words. Having established a framework it is now pertinent to look at those verses that carry either an overt or hidden use of the word mutation(s). There are only five verses in the whole text that carry this key. Two are redundant anagrams in that they involve no rearrangement of letters and it is these two that I will treat first. It is immediately apparent on reading their visible content that, although they are as obscure as Nostradamus promised, they hold some meaning of great import. It is my aim to show the momentous significance of their content.

C.01 Q.051
Chef d'Aries, Jupiter et Saturne………………...........… The head of Aries, Jupiter and Saturn
Dieu eternel quelles mutations?.......................... Eternal God, what changes !
Puis par long Siecle Son maling temps retourne.....Then the bad times will return again after a long time
Gaule et Italie quelles eSmotions ………….........…….what turmoil in France and Italy.

C.01 Q.054
Deux reuolts faicts du maling falcigere……………. Two revolutions made from the evil scythe
De regne et Siecles faict permutation……………… making a permutation of reign and centuries.
Le mobil Signe a Son endroict Si ingere ……………The mobile sign thus moves into its place:
Aux deux egaux et d'inclination…………..…………..At two [times] of equal worth and inclination.

It is my intent in this blog to show that these two verses describe the same key and that key is the hundred year period from April 2000 to March 2100. The basis of the key involves the motion of Polaris.

The precision of Nostradamus’ wording must always be taken into consideration when evaluating his meanings and in these two verses doing so clears the way for determining the date. To this end the first line of C.01 Q.051 is a list that doesn’t have to imply that Jupiter and Saturne are at the Head of Aries as it can mean the two largest planets Jupiter and Saturn at points in Aries are to be used together with an alignment of other bodies at the Head of Aries.

Consider line three of C.01 Q.051. and in doing so notice the ease with which the message is formed and how, once the message is known, it has the ability to make sense of the obscurities in Nostradamus’ visible text.

Puis par long Siecle Son maling temps retourne
Pu isparlo ngSi ecleSon malingtempsre. to urne
Up Polaris sign enclose ………………… to rune___Enclose Polaris sign up to rune


Puis par long Siecle Son maling temps retourne
-------------------- cleSo nmalingte…. ………………
-------------------- close alignment…. ………………__close alignment

It is possible to also deduce a more comprehensive message from each of the whole anagrams in the line and this message is I enclose Polaris route in close alignment to Polar rune sign. (Alignment only occurs in one other verse and Polaris occurs in five other verses)

In the current era Polaris, which is currently the most mobile constellation of the so-called fixed stars, is changing its ascension and declination angles rapidly and this justifies a title of the mobile sign. In March 2100 CE it will be at its closest point to the spot where the imaginary Celestial North Pole rune-sign is placed. This occurs around Easter and it signifies the end of Polaris' ascent to the Pole. It will be over 25000 years before it will once again be as close to the pole and moving as fast. March 2100 CE therefore represesents a very momentous changing point in astronomic history and the details of this event Nostradamus has incorporated in verse C.01 Q.054 .


De regne et Siecles faict permutation……… making a permutation of reign and centuries (2000-2100).
Le mobil Signe a Son endroict Si ingere……The mobile sign (Polaris) thus moves into its place.
Aux deux egaux et d'inclination………………At two [times] of equal worth and inclination.

There is an anagram in line one of C.01 Q.051 that I want to mention without full analysis of the line and that is the anagram for Easter (eretSa). This has a significant bearing which relates to both Aries and Polaris as it isthe time of year in 2100CE at which the closest point is reached.

Of the infrequent occasions when Saturn and Juiter have been close together in Aries the celestial events of 2000 CE are most commentworthy. On the 30th of April of that year the sun was in close alignment with Polaris while Venus and Mercury were in close alignment with the stars at the head of Aries. Jupiter and Saturn were in close alignment with the stars at the tail of Aries (see image at start) and all of this was calculable by a good astronomer in the 16th C. The 30th April 2000 CE was Easter so in this rearrangement we see a permutation of the events of 2100 CE involving alignments related to Polaris at Easter. Again this fits with Nostradamus' text and the changing of the millennium in 2000 and the changing role of the Polestar in 2001 can be seen as the two changing revolutions Nostradamus mentions in line 1 of C.01 Q.054 .

Deux reuolts faicts du maling falcigere……………. Two revolutions made from the evil scythe

My next article will begin to show how the themes relevant to this period are also contained in these verses.
NOTES on occurrence of Jupiter and Saturn in Aries:

Since both planets mentioned are slow moving they are in the same part of any nominated zodiac once in every 850 years (approximately). For instance they were conjoined in the head of Aries in 114CE, 967CE 1821CE and Apr 1881 CE. There are always a cluster of three or four nearby occasions where they conjoin in different parts of the same zodiac sign. These are about 60 years apart so they have appeared together in the tail of Aries at intervals of about 120 years later than when they appear in the head. In 233CE and 1086CE this occurred and the next occurrence is in the year 2000CE when it will take place as the two planets change their abode and leave Aries for Taurus. The regularity of the 850 year period drifts with time as in the case of 1821CE and 1881CE. It is for the same reason that we find an appearance in Aries tail that is 120 year before 114CE in the year 06BCE, the year that many scholars use as that of the birth of Jesus Christ. So the period of appearances is generally 120 to 180 years and then a long period of over 650 years where no conjunctions take place.
CHRIST’s STATUS IN THE WARS OF THE 21st CENTURY.

I have shown that C.01 Q.051 and C.01 Q.54 set two important dates ( Easter 2000 CE and Easter 2100 CE) and this evolved from a simple key within one verse that shed light on the meaning of the visible text. When this was done what once seemed obscure could be seen as skilfully crafted word-plays. The examples I have shown are not isolated since Nostradamus skill is on display throughout much of his work. A further example is to be found in C.01 Q.51 since the second line is once more a vessel for greater depth than at first appears.

C.01 Q.051 line 2

Dieu eternel quelles mutations?...................................... Eternal God, what changes !

My aim is to show that Nostradamus is emphasizing his theme in which the turmoil is linked to the great mutation of Christianity’s core belief. There is a small foundation for this idea in what I have already uncovered since both celestial events occur at Easter and there is a basis for concluding the events relate to a disastrous war. In this light consider the text of a verse that lies very close to the two that I discussed before and in which strong reinforcement for my hypotheses can readily be found.

C.01 Q.056
Vous verrez toSt et tard faire grand change……Sooner and later you will see great changes made,
Horreurs extremes et vindications……………….dreadful horrors and retaliations.
Que Si la lune conduicte par Son ange………….For as the moon is thus led by its angel
Le ciel s'approche des inclinations………………the heavens draw near to the tipping point

Paraphrasing the words given in the verse above allows me to highlight Nostradamus’ cryptic skills. In 2000 (sooner) and 2100 (later) great changes will take place for, just as the moon waxes and wanes, precession will cause the Polestar to pass its closest point to the North Pole. And as these celestial events unfold there will be a time of dreadful deeds.

I have constantly referred to quotations Nostradamus made in his Preface and the Epistle to his prophecies and I have placed particular emphasis on those that imply his works involved past, present and future elements. This method allows the reader to deduce from allegory the relevance and meaning of future events and without this frame there can be no sense made of Nostradamus’ visions. These particular verses that talk of mutation have a historic component and it is based on the events at the Nicean Council in which the framework of Jesus Christ as equal to God and the Holy Spirit was devised. It is the challenge to this core belief that is at the heart of Nostradamus words Eternal God what changes?

Easter is one of the two definitive periods in Jesus life that lay at the heart of the Nicean debate; the other was his birth. As a man of mortal flesh born to a mortal mother and a mortal father his status as part of the trinity was highly questionable. Even as the son of God his status of equality was under threat. To avoid this the Nicean Council made such questioning a heresy and declared Jesus’ birth was not of a mortal kind and that he like God and the Holy Spirit was born without being fathered. The Greek word embodying this idea that was used at the Nicean Council was Agennos.

The anagram of Agennos occurs in eight verses and two of these are C.01 Q.54 (gne a Son)and C.01 Q.56 (l3: Son ange). It is noteworthy that it also appears in another verse I have already discussed C.03 Q.59 line 2 which holds the extraordinary anagram of TETRAGRAMMATON, the mechanism for generating the twelve names of God. This core-religious context is backed up by quite powerful anagrams in the two lines of the current verses where Agennos is found (a few relevant ones are shown below).

Le mobil Signe a Son endroict Si ingere ……Le mobil Signe a Son endroict Si ingere

The Mutation Theme of the Earth's Atmosphere

This series of my work explores the statement by Nostradamus that his work is really about the great mutations that will affect mankind into the future. I believe Nostradamus interest was not in the trivial or the ephemeral events of history but in those inescapable developments that would shape mankind forever. I have been following one such theme, that of the way religious doctrines will come to be radically altered. This is not Nostradamus' only theme. Although I have very good reasons for wanting to pursue the earlier work I need to pause to show the nature of at least one other mutation type since this theme comes out of two more of the five verses that contain an anagram of mutation/s. In so doing I also want to restate the things I demand of my work in order for it to be acceptable. The following anlysis illustrates each of the points very well.

My working framework builds meaning by:

  1. using sequences of adjacent whole anagrams,
  2. requiring the anagrams to be interconnected to each other by their meaning or sense,
  3. expecting the resultant words and message to develop Nostradamus' text for that line or verse,
  4. finding key anagrams that have low recurrence elsewhere,
  5. accepting that Nostradamus text is meaningful and that words and spelling are purposefully chosen,
  6. the interwoven consistency across and between all the verses in Nostradamus' Prophecies,
  7. relying on Nostradamus having used a past, present and future framework to give his code strength.

The first verse containing an anagram of mutation is in line 3 of C.X Q.90. Nostradamus' text tells us little detail of either the action or the personages involved. This is held in the hidden text.

C.X Q.090
Cent foys mourra le tyran inhumain .......A hundred times will the inhuman tyrant die,
Mys a Son lieu Scauant et debonnaire......In his place put one learned and mild
Tout le Senat Sera deSSoubz Sa main.....The entire Senate will be under his hand,
Fache Sera par malin themeraire.............He will be vexed by a rash scoundrel.

FIRE REACHES PALAMARI (Beach in Greece) EARTHMEN

(re)Fa cheSerap armal in theme rai re_______PREACHES ALARM, FEAR IN AIR THEME

The hidden message gains strength through its ability to utilise what look like unusable lettering such as soubz and aparmali. The anagrams are of Spanish and Greek origin and this actually turns out to be more significant than can be judged from their occurrence in one verse. In the next verse Nostradamus' text also talks of places in Greece and it too has a significant anagram that comes from Spanish even though it is now part of the terminology of earth-scientists. Note that one of the anagrams in the last line above is Earth-men or people who study the earth.

The next example comes from verse C.V Q.27 Line 3 whose text is immediately relevant for its theme of fire and its geography:

C.V Q.27 Line 3
Trembler Phatos Methelin Sol alegro....Pharos, Mytilene to tremble, the Sun lively,

Trembler Phatos Methelin Sol alegro
Trem ………………………… al egro____Al Gore term
…….…erPhatosMe the insolalegr_____the atmosphere temblor allegoreins
.…..Phat os Methe (e)lin sola_________
So line theme also path (to)
..............erphatosm eth elin so alegr ____the line large metaphors

Temblor comes from Spanish and is a term used by modern earthscience for an earthquake or tremor and allegoreins is ancient Greek for allegories. The context for allegoreins is quite in keeping with the anagram of metaphors with each giving strength to the other. And this is another verse where the hidden message amplifies Nostradamus' text.

The message has the quite unusual and very apt reference to Al Gore in an atmospheric context . This also links to the previous verse's reference to a leader and a member of the Senate. Although there are only three other occurrences of Al Gore as properly constructed anagrams (separate Al and Gore) one of these occurs in a line of verse containing the word mutation.

C.II Q.41 Line 3
Le gros maStin toute nuict hurlera ... The large mastiff will howl all night.
(a)L egros maStintou tenui ... urler a__ AL GORES MUTATIONS UNITE RULER

This verse is also clearly linked to damage to the atmosphere since it begins:

At this point I will temporarily end the work on this theme for the above achieves all of my immediate goals for the analysis.

In search of a major protagonist of the Religious Wars.

In my current series on the great mutations that Nostradamus foresaw I have been analysing verses containing an anagram of mutation/s and other verses with strong thematic links to these. There remains one to analyse and this I intend to do but not in the same manner. It is is a verse whose theme seems different to the others and it illustrates an important property of the hidden messages; they never repeat information in the same context but are a development or expansion on the theme. This is the case with C.I Q.95

C.I Q.95
Deuant mouStier trouue enfant beSSon ……........In front of a monastery will be found a twin infant
D'heroic Sang de Moine et vestutisque
……....…. from the illustrious and ancient line of a monk.
Son bruit par Secte langue et puiSSance Son….. His renown by his sect’s language and power.
Qu'on dira
fort eSleue le vopiSique……............…So that they will say his strength overwhelms his twin

There are, as is commonplace in Nostradamus' text, several words in this verse that will not be found in a modern French dictionary. Once again they turn out to have meaning but this time rather than gaining insight from the hidden message, understanding is generated by identifying the story that lies in the past. However the confidence to do this lies largely in the nature of the hidden text since it links this verse solidly with the verses on mutation that stress the religious dimension. The first line contains an anagram of mutations and it is part of  an adjacent  anagram sequences which says mutations_rewrote. Using every letter in the line there is a sequence that says either Fanen_wrote_rite_amount_son_best_due or rite_Nafen_wrote_undoes_best_amount. The lettering enfan forming Nafen, Fanen, Fanne or Efann fits in these sequences if it is the name of an individual or group and this is in keeping with the tone of the verse. Whatever the case it conveys an image of  a rite being rewritten that undoes previous best practice surrounding a son. As such it is not out of keeping with my previous findings.

Earlier I have shown that Agennos, being born without a father,  was the device the Nicene Council used to place Jesus alongside God. Jesus death and his ascension to sit at the right of hand of God were also part of this process. And this had been made necessary because of the divisions in the early Christian church between those who believed Jesus was a mortal with a special message and those that were convinced that Jesus was that special message. And Nostradamus work seems to be about an Essene-like, Gnostic group, that still seek to overturn this doctrine. The word Vopisique in the last line of the visible text fits this scheme for it means like-a-surviving-twin and in the days of the early church Gnostic views were the twin that was to be overwhelmed by what is now termed the orthodox view. The third line of this verse holds hidden wording that backs this story.

Son bruit par Secte langue et puiSSance Son
Son brui
tpar Sectel anguee tpu iSSanceSon___
Select part  son ascensions put
So
nbru it parSectela................uiSSanceS on___Soon it burn
Paraclete's issuances
.. onbr ........ arSect elang ........uiSSance SonS___
Angel traces son's issuance born

Now according to the Gospel of  Mathew, John the Baptist named the Paraclete as a powerful one who "will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire". The Paraclete was expected to appear at Jesus' Ascension on the day of Pentecost. All this is in keeping with anagrams found in the third line which says His renown by his sect’s language and power. The Paraclete is identified with the Holy Spirit who inspired with the gift of languages and this can be readily seen as a sub-text of Nostradamus wording in this line.

The term Paraclete/s is a key word in Nostradamus' Prophecies. It appears on three other occasions. In Verse C.V Q.6 line 3 it lies alongside anagrams forming Paraclete es a Magian Archangel. Reading this verse it can be seen that it might fulfil the message given above whereby the angel traces the history of Jesus' sons. In Verse C.III Q.77 Paraclete is found as an anagram in the fourth line where both death and cross are used in Nostradamus'  wording. Equally as significant is that in the second line of this same verse is the only anagram of the word Pentecost. Although these are important verses I will not analyse them further here since this is enough to show why I have confidence the anagram of Paraclete is intentional and not a by-product of chance.

There can be little doubt that this is a powerful linking to the other verses that hold anagrams for mutation/s and from that we can draw the conclusion that this verse is an evolutionary step in the tale. Its story line implies that it holds the key to a participant in the battle over the doctrine underlying Christianity. In all of this Nostradamus may or may not be a believer that there is a line born of Jesus but instead telling the story of people who do believe. The next step is to strip some of the mystery from the veil that hides the identity of  the participant.

Today 1st December  2009 I noticed a statement by Nostradamus that bears out my analysis on mutations. I had begun this series with an expectation there would be more than five major themes but I uncovered only two as I have detailed earlier. Here is Nostradamus' comment:

It is much like seeing in a burning mirror, with clouded vision, the great events, sad, prodigious and calamitous events that in due time will fall upon the principal worshippers. First upon the temples of God, secondly upon those who sustained by the earth, approach such decadence. Also a thousand other calamitous events which will be known to happen in due time.
Nostradamus in his Epistle to Henry, June 1558.

The Allegory on which Centuries I Quatrain 95 is based

My analyses gain their strength by using a set of rules that diminish the probability of unusual occurrences or connections being a product of chance alone. One of the more critical rules that I only identified in the last few years is that which uses Nostradamus' statement By means of this, past, present and future become one eternity to imply each quatrain has an allegory based in the past that helps define the verses meaning. In the instance of verse C.I Q.95 the story is not obvious and in order to find the tale I have to rely on another one of the rules which requires me to accept the words and spelling as being deliberately chosen by Nostradamus. This rule helps me account for Nostradamus' employment of  unknown words, foreign words and other devices by seeing them as  needed for his code. As such these words can produce important clues that any decoder would normally seek if it weren't so convenient to blame them either on printers error or Nostradamus' lack of skill. 

It is not easy at first glance to identify the historic reference point but once again when the word clues are understood then the verse ties in tightly with the theme of dramatic change in Christian religious doctrine. The verse is clearly about a  monastery a sect and a monk who becomes a leader through his power of speech and the power of the sect to which he belongs.

Centuries I Quatrain 95
Deuant mouStier trouue enfant beSSon ……........In front of a monastery will be found a twin infant
D'heroic Sang de Moine et vestutisque
……....…. .from the illustrious and ancient line of a monk.
Son bruit par Secte langue et puiSSance Son….. His renown by his sect’s language and power.
Qu'on dira
fort eSleue le vopiSique……............…So that they will say his strength overwhelms his twin
 

The two highlighted words moustier (monastery) and besson(twin) are not made up but come from Old French and Occitan. This is our first clue since it sets the location and period as France during a period well before the 16th century. The phrasing in the second line is also a clue for it refers to heroic-blood. When I went in search of the relevance of moustier my feeling was that the verse alluded to the Knights Templar who were the prominent sect of influence and power several centuries before Nostradamus' time. There is one character who then stands out as the likely candidate; Peter the Hermit. Below is an extract from Wikpedia on Peter.

Sources differ as to whether he was present at Pope Urban II's famous Council of Clermont in 1095; but it is certain that he was one of the preachers of the crusade in France afterward, and his own experience may have helped to give fire to the Crusading cause. He soon leapt into fame as an emotional revivalist; and the vast majority of sources and historians agree that thousands of peasants eagerly took the cross at his bidding. However, Jonathan Riley-Smith has proposed that the People's Crusade also included well armed soldiers and nobles. This part of the crusade was also the crusade of the "paupers", a term which in the Middle Ages indicated a status as impoverished or mendicant wards of the Church. Peter organized and guided the paupers as a spiritually purified and holy group of pilgrims who would be protected by the Heavenly Host.  

The last line of this quote shows that Peter is seen as a Paraclete (an advocate linked to the Holy Spirit) which is the key anagram found in the third line. This line also emphasises the power of the tongue which is an attribute claimed for the Holy Spirit.

Today Peter is not forgotten even though the monastery he built lies in ruin. Peter's story is one of the strong threads in the legend of a secret cult within the Knights Templars, Rex Deus, that believed that Christ had sons and that they, the cult, held the responsibility for the protection and re-emergence of  Jesus line. At the end of the first crusade Peter established a monastery in Liege that soon replaced its twin in Mount Sion. By this time the sect transferred to this new monastery which was called Neufmoustier (new monastery). The Rex Deus is reported to have its origins in the time of Christ (via Ormesius) and amongst its adherents was a branch of the Essenes. It was from these origins that the Knights Templar and its internal sect the Rex Deus came into being in Europe before the eleventh century. In the current day there has been an upsurge in those who believe in the Jesus' line and the existence of  a secret cult that actively seeks the second coming and the end-of-days. From Nostradamus' perspective and my own it doesn't matter whether the reasons for their beliefs are true or false, what does matter is that the legends haven't died and may yet have a significant role in the history of mankind. 

The allegory of Peter the Hermit therefore sits firmly into Nostradamus' theme  of a religious cult that challenges the core beliefs of the Christian Church. This verse  is no trivial side-trail but a key to the mystery behind Nostradamus writings and its revelation now allows for much greater detail to be sought.

Once again by using the aspects of Nostradamus wording (in this case moustier) I have found an unexpected and surprising relevance and established a reference point that binds all of these analyses into an evolving and increasingly-richly-detailed account of a religious organisation at odds with Christian orthodoxy. I have not yet accounted for the twin in front of the monastery nor have I linked in the Occitan word Besson but as each example unfolds I am increasingly confident that these play a significant part in the story and are this verse's contribution to the future component of  Religious mutations.

GREAT MUTATIONS

In each of the two prefaces that  Nostradamus included with the two different release dates in 1555 and 1558 he clearly sets out what his works were meant to focus on.

Later because of the increased commonness of their happening I decided to give way , and by abstruse and perplexing sentences, tell of the causes of the future mutations of mankind, especially those of popular interest, and the ones I perceived, and in a manner that would not upset fragile sentiments. All had to to be written under a cloudy figure, above all things prophetic.
Nostradamus 1555 in the beginning of  his Preface to his Prophecies.

I have mixed therewith no divination coming from fate. All from God and nature. It is much like seeing in a burning mirror, with clouded vision, the great events, sad, prodigious and calamitous events that in due time will fall upon the principal worshippers. First upon the temples of God, secondly upon those who sustained by the earth, approach such decadence. Also a thousand other calamitous events which will be known to happen in due time.
Nostradamus in an early part of his Epistle to Henry, June 1558.  
(Note: Nostradamus emphasised God and nature by using italics for these three words.)

In order to present my findings it is important that I give what I believe is at the heart of these statements by Nostradamus

There are some absolutes that I see determining the great mutations for mankind and I believe that as a successful Prophet Nostradamus would have reached the same view.

In every age man judges what he deems important and strives towards its end but man's efforts are a sideshow, a fleeting ghost in the larger span of evolution. Of man's struggles it is only that which is in balance with nature that will endure. Those sad, prodigious and calamitous events that will fall upon those who sustained by the earth, approach such a decadence are the words Nostradamus chose for the second of the great mutations. There can be no doubt that ever-growing population is an attack on nature. And Nature will respond as it always has to infestations by the destruction of that species ability to seed and by growth in other species in order to right the balance. Man's current dilemmas reflect an imbalance. In failing to face the limitations of a finite planet and to live in balance with Nature, climate change, pollution, diminution of biodiversity, poverty, and increasing  famine, flood and disaster are our inevitable destiny. History tells us that in such circumstances nature will redress our follies and this now presses upon us. Nature's response is knowable even if unacknowledged;  the human seed will be mutated and the human ability to breed will fall; institutions that depend on and foster population growth will die. This is the meaning of great mutations as distinct from revolutions and temporary horrors. It is not Hitler, Napoleon or the Kennedy brothers that are Nostradamus' focus, it is the potential fate linked to man's neglect of the Earth and Nature that is his core concern.  What many see as Nostradamus focus is but a device for retaining attention. Hitler, the French Revolution are not amongst the great mutations but among the thousand other calamitous events which will be known to happen in due time.

And Nostradamus interest in the great mutation of current religions is because in the end this is the mutation that can make it possible for man to survive. The eternal truth is that Nature is our Creator and the Earth was once our Garden of Eden but this is not currently the basis of Religion. It isn't that worship of  Nature and the Earth will change what happens since they need no worship; instead they demand respect yet theirs demand is not one of choice or will but it is what must be. When man's need for belief embraces that Man has only so much right to the Earth and its evolutionary treasure then the will can be found for man's behaviour to change. The impediments are dogma and amoral institutions. Yet time has always loosened the bonds of dogma that hold back understanding but rarely at an easy pace. The  understanding of evolution, the Earth's mechanics, the way  disease is spread and many other issues are now embraced by many ideologies that once relished in their denial. But given time reason wins and dogma loses, so we ca be certain that ideas fabricated by men that lie outside reason will one day be usurped. But When? How soon? Will it be in time? These questions are what I believe Nostradamus sought to address.  Increasingly it appears to me that he did have an ability to see the future. He stated that  his visions stretched far off covering over two millennia and if this is so he would have seen the triumphs of reason one by one and he would have seen the fall of dogma.  Ultimately Religion must evolve so that it is in tune with the realities of Nature for religious faith is a need of most people's of the Earth yet without this change the World remains in constant denial of a visible truth. Although I have no great fancy for any creed I would see a battle over the status of Christ as equal-to-God losing out to his mortality. This is the first small step in the breaking of the yoke of dogma and it will not come from science but be wrought by orthodoxy's historical challengers.  The change they bring will however not be the last mutation but it will be the trigger of many horrors. Confirmation of these thoughts can be  seen in Nostradamus' aim to record  the great events, sad, prodigious and calamitous events that in due time will fall upon the principal worshippers.  First upon the temples of God...

It is apparent that Nostradamus' Prophecies fall into three streams of which the Mutation of Religion is the primary one and the Mutation of the Earth's environment the second most important. This guidance from Nostradamus has determined the way in which my presentations will now proceed.  My output will also be in keeping with another statement by Nostradamus.

Many events, most powerful of all Kings, of the most astounding sort are to transpire soon,  but I neither could nor would fit them all into this epistle, but in order to comprehend certain horrible facts, a few must be set forth.
Nostradamus at the end of his Epistle to Henry, June 1558.
