I seem to recall some folk passing this prediction of as the solar eclipse that Europe experienced in 1999, albeit in August - the 8th month - and Nostradamus was still working on the predecessor to the Gregorian calender (or something like that). :)
 
Anyone on the net can BS anything they wish and claim Nostradamus prophesied the event.  Right after 9/11 some joker made up BS stating that Nostradamus predicted something about "the two towers falling down" (vague recollection).

And solar eclipses rank on the terror scale between Tamerlane and the Black Plague. ;)

I think it was something with the "Two Golden Twins".
 
...the rampaging of Napoleon (by the name of Napolonoi), and the genocide of Hitler (By the name of Hister, the river where he grew up), then it shouldn't be discarded like rubbish because like Raven said: knowing it all doesn't lie in out potential.

And if my aunt had a dick she'd be my uncle. Like Per said, this involves a lot of speculation and streatching of the truth. If you start re arranging or adding letters to words, you can find ANY meaning you want.
 
I get it alright. I didn't think there were actually people in this world that find it a need to spread bullshit. I guess I don't need to believe everyone who makes a movie or writes a book.

Back on topic, I'm still curious about what the possibilities can be.
 
Looking through time is impossible even if you completely suspend disbelief because time is a dimension in theory only. Time is not a dimension in the same way that the standard three dimensions are. Rather it's a way of measuring change. A clock ticking, for example, does not denote a rate of travel across the dimension of time but rather a predictable and constant change that all other change can be measured against. Einstein's theory of relativity (i'm no expert on this but i know the basics), states that the flow of time is relative to the rate of motion.
The standard three dimensions are not realtive to each other; a change in one dimension in no way affects another. I'm not trying to disprove time. I'm just suggesting that time is not a physical dimension that can be traveled or looked into. The future is not a location on a timeline but a product of a perpetually changing present. At least that's one of my theories.

From the sky will come the great King of Terror.
He will bring back to life the King of the Mongols;
Before and after war reigns.

What happened? N-O-T-H-I-N-G.

the thing is to find which is the year 1999 following a logical code to un-lock the sayings
...in the same quatraine, Nostradamus never spoked for Mongols,
but for the king of Angoulême 
...later commentaries did suppose that he wanted to say Mongols

I think 1999 in Nostradamus work is another year, and not our 1999

And what makes you think that?  :huh:

Jews, Christians and Muslims have different calendars for one. Nostradamus was a Jewish converso and dabled (obviously) into the occult, thus maybe he wasn't exactly using the mainstream calendar.
 
Perhaps Nostradamus was working from a different definition of "terror" and "war". Maybe this prediction did come true after all?

...because you can never have a straight prophesy
it will be not a prophesy anymore, it will loose its power, it will be "burned"

if you take a look to all religions /traditions you will see that
all prophesies are formulating in rimes and with a code

the code can be a logic code
or a numeric code that unlocks under a specific mathematic function
-that is supposed to be possible to be found-
which exists within the writtings

I don't have an idea if Nostradamus is right or wrong,
but I am certain that his 1999 is not our 1999....

Right, so now Nostradamus is predicting a 'terror from the sky', which in his time could easily have been interpereted as a storm, eclipse, comet, meteor or any manner of U.F.O., and in our time can be air disasters as well.  Since 'King' in this sense need not be a physical person, it can be any major disaster...or even an omen thereof.  Not only does this mean that there is no way of pinning him down on a date, the metaphorical nature of his 'prophesies' means that they can be interepereted nearly any way.

'Good old Nostradamus...he always new there would be an east from west, and somewhere in between, someone would be fighting'

'...but the truth of all predictions is always in your hands...'

hmmm, I don't seem to have convinced you...
at least you noticed that all the prophesies are formed with rimes
and allegoric words ?

exactly Raven ! there was the famous eclipse back in August '99, the earth quake in Istanbul, and someone I know declares to have seen a U.F.O that same day

and of course the truth of all predictions is always in your hands

but I still don't believe that he was meaning our 1999
I didn't believe it then, I don't believe it now

You're missing my point.  If you accept that Nostradamus' prophesies can be interpereted in so many ways, then they're not prophesies at all!  I prophesy that someone, somewhere in the world will die in the year of the great war in the land beyond the sea.  How can that prophesy not come true?!  Nostradamus didn't mean our 1999 because he just picked a number off the top of his head, so we could have intense philosophical discussions about which insanely vague world event he was claiming to forsee.

I don't know at all to know if he was right or wrong, but seeing his name surviving so many years, I say myself that maybe he was right ...but I am not so interesting to discover it
I see him with a respect knowing that could be a charlatan
