Nostradamus Predictions 2012

I am sure you must have heard about the great apothecary, Nostradamus and all his predictions (some of which have come true) and which he had predicted nearly 500 years back. You must have also heard about Nostradamus predictions 2012, about the third world war and the deaths and the massacres and finally the end of the world. Scared? Worried? Well, don't be. Here are some more facts about his predictions and what he had predicted and what actually might happen.

Michel de Nostredame

Before going into the details, let us learn more about this great French apothecary. Michel de Nostredame was born in the early 16th century and do you know what was the date of his birth? 21st December! His Latinized name was more popular, Nostradamus. By profession, he was a medicine man, who was helping people to come out from the deadly plague, that had hit Europe in the 1550's. But, he stopped practicing medicine and focused more on occult. He started writing an almanac in the year 1550 and slowly, because his first one was a huge success, he was encouraged to write more. Slowly, his fame spread far and wide and people came to him with their birth dates and times, for his advice and views on their future. Of course, he did make some calculation errors and sometimes he predicted the wrong things.

Nostradamus, later started working on nearly one thousand French quatrains. Some of Nostradamus predictions that came true, such as the 9/11, Hitler, London fire, etc., are contained in these quatrains. Nostradamus quatrains were all published in a book called 'Les Propheties' (The Prophecies). After reading these books and also after hearing about his predictions, it's not that everyone appreciated what he did. Some people called him evil, some thought that he was fake. Some on the other hand thought that Nostradamus quatrains were spiritually inspired. But whatever the case was, Nostradamus's name spread far and wide and today, the predictions have made him even more popular.

End of the World

You are probably wondering why the very date 21st December 2012 has been selected as Doomsday? Well, this is the day when according to the Mayan calendar, it completes it's thirteenth cycle. That day will mark the 5125 yearlong cycle of the Mayan Long Count calendar. This theory states that a Comet, called the NIBIRU, will hit the earth and cause great destruction in the year 2012. This comet will also start the Third World War. When the comet hits the earth surface or the sea bed, nearly the whole of Asia will be flooded. There will be a Tsunami, in front of which the Tsunami of 2004, will seem like a small tiny puddle. After the comet hits the earth, the earth will lose it's orbit around the sun and massive earthquakes are going to hit the earth. The polar ice caps will start melting because of the excess heat and global warming will become a major issue.

Predictions About Obama

Nostradamus had also predicted certain things about the first black President of America, Barack Obama. He had predicted that Obama would become the President and as we all know that he did. He also predicted that Obama would come in to contact with a person who will be an anti-Christ and this contact will lead to the start of the Third World War, involving almost all the countries of the world.

Predictions About the WWIII

Nostradamus prediction about World War Three states that a Planet X will come and hit the earth and this will be the cause of some major destruction in the world including the city of Rome. He states that there will a Third World War with the 'camels'. He said that the 'camels will come to drink from the Danube'. The Danube is a river in Europe and as for camels, there are no camels in Europe (unless you consider the ones that are there in the zoos). So by camels most probably he meant the countries of Iran and Iraq. This will take place somewhere after 2011 and 2012. There will be a war between the Arab and the Christian world and this war will destroy almost all the countries except for two and that's India and China. This is because, these two countries will not take part in the war.

Predictions After 2012

Mars and the scepter (Jupiter) conjoined,
In Cancer (next to occur July-August, 2013), by him all calamitous war will eventually be ended,
A new Leader will be anointed (born),
He will bring Peace to the Earth for a very long time.
Century VI, Quatrain 24

This probably indicates that after the huge Third World War, a new leader will be born and he will be the one who will bring peace and hopes in this earth and will remove all traces of destruction. He also predicts that this peace will remain for a long time.

If his predictions proves to be true, we will have to face it. But we will face it together, cause that time it won't matter which religion we belong to or which country we come from. What will matter then is that we are all humans.
