Cannon and her subjects, primarily named Brenda and John, interpret his prophecies and quatrains, gaining insights into past and future events, including world wars, the Anti-Christ, Earth shifts, and technological advancements. The text also touches upon astrology, ancient knowledge, alternate realities, and the challenges and revelations experienced by those facilitating the communication. The passages explore the symbolism and multi-layered nature of Nostradamus's writings, as explained through these channeled sessions.
Briefing Document: Conversations With Nostradamus, Vols. 1 & 2
These excerpts detail sessions conducted by Dolores Cannon using a unique trance-based method to communicate with a consciousness identified as Nostradamus. The communication occurs primarily through two individuals in trance, initially "Elena" (identified as Dyonisus, a student of Nostradamus) and later "B" (identified as John, also a student). The central theme is the interpretation of Nostradamus's prophecies, focusing on future events seen through his perspective. Key topics include catastrophic Earth changes (earthquakes, planetary shifts, sea level rise), future warfare (atomic weapons, biological weapons, advanced technology like earthquake machines and weather manipulation), the rise of a figure identified as the "Anti-Christ," technological advancements (electricity, microchips, submarines, spaceships, DNA computers, nanotechnology), and Nostradamus's life and methods. The material also touches upon the nature of consciousness, astral travel, and the possibility of contact with extraterrestrial entities.
Main Themes and Key Ideas/Facts:
The Nature of the Contact:
* Dolores Cannon utilizes a method of hypnotic regression to access a consciousness that identifies as Nostradamus. This is initially done through an individual named Elena, who channels "Dyonisus," a student of Nostradamus. Later, communication is primarily through "B" (John), another student.
* Nostradamus himself becomes aware of and communicates directly with Dolores Cannon at times, sensing her presence. This is described as a "very strange development" as subjects in regression are usually unaware of her as a separate entity [1, p. 3]. Nostradamus playfully interacts with Cannon, acknowledging her "terrible curiosity" and abundance of questions [1, p. 248].
* The communication is described as tuning into "higher vibrations of the universe which are very precise mathematically" [1, p. 126]. The trance subjects are described as having their "vibration or frequency" identified by Nostradamus [1, p. 345].
* Nostradamus indicates this is a "major contact for this planet" [1, p. 313]. He also mentions contacting people on other planets in the future to clarify his writings relevant to those worlds [1, p. 313].
Nostradamus's Methods and Life:
* Nostradamus's visions were aided by various instruments and burning alcohol to create a blue flame, which helped him concentrate on "higher spheres" and tune into universal vibrations [1, p. 126].
* He used instruments, potentially calipers, to "diagram what he sees and he wants to do it accurately" [1, p. 127].
* His room is described as cluttered with parchments, manuscripts, writing instruments, and measuring devices [1, p. 127].
* He had students and servants [2, p. 124]. He kept antiquities, including ancient Roman and Greek items and old coins, locked in a chest to prevent a "nosy servant girl" from accessing them [2, p. 124].
* He practiced "pharmacopoeia," indicating knowledge of drugs and medicines [2, p. 222]. He had a specially installed indoor "toilet" for personal use, which he found conducive to thinking [2, p. 123].
* He describes his physical appearance as "distinguished-looking," with grayish hair, a long thin nose, and "deep-set and full of sparkle" eyes, though elderly for his time [2, p. 84].
* Astrology played a significant role in his work, particularly in attempting to set time factors for events [1, p. 127]. He knew of planets beyond Saturn and anticipated the discovery of others that would rule Virgo and Libra, bringing in the "true Aquarian Age of wisdom" in the 22nd century or around 2040 [2, p. 112-113].
Catastrophic Earth Changes:
* A major theme is a predicted "shift in the planet" towards the "closing of the century," described as abrupt (within a six- to ten-hour period) and causing dramatic changes or cessation of existing continents [1, p. 176].
* Severe earthquakes are predicted, capable of ripping open the Earth's crust to the mantle and triggering others globally [1, p. 172].
* Specific locations mentioned as being severely affected include the West Coast of the United States (Los Angeles, San Francisco, and a third city forming a "triangle") [1, p. 177-178], and the English Isle, with half being "ripped away and buried into the sea" [1, p. 172].
* Future map predictions include significant land changes: parts of Missouri and Arkansas cut in half, Kansas and Oklahoma becoming a large island, most of Texas underwater, the Pacific Northwest and Alaska as one landmass, and parts of Switzerland, Sweden, and Norway becoming scattered islands [2, p. 290-291].
* Rising sea levels are predicted, submerging cities like St. Petersburg [2, p. 282]. India is expected to be underwater up to the Himalayas, and most of China's flatlands will be submerged [2, p. 282]. Japan will be smaller and more distant, with active volcanoes creating new land [2, p. 282]. The Philippines are predicted to be completely submerged [2, p. 282]. Iceland is expected to grow larger due to volcanic eruptions [2, p. 281].
* These disasters are linked to famine and subsequent wars fought over remaining resources [1, p. 172-173]. The US is predicted to be fortunate due to oceans but still hard hit by earthquakes, facing distribution problems but not famine [1, p. 172].
Future Warfare and Weaponry:
* Nostradamus saw "most terrible and wondrous weapons" [1, p. 253].
* Atomic weapons are described as like "bringing a piece of the sun down to the earth" [1, p. 253]. A "long gray cylinder" and "mushroom cloud" are shown as imagery [1, p. 253].
* Biological experiments conducted in space could lead to hardy organisms surviving re-entry and causing plagues [1, p. 242].
* Diseases capable of discriminating between males and females and rendering women infertile are described as existing "top military secrets" being refined [2, p. 67].
* An "earthquake machine" is mentioned, capable of intimidating nations with geological faults [1, p. 238-240]. This device is described as a significant advance in weaponry akin to the atomic bomb [1, p. 240]. The country developing this weapon will hold it as a major threat [1, p. 238].
* Weather manipulation is mentioned [1, p. 166]. The HAARP project is referenced in the context of secret weapons, earthquake machines, weather manipulation, and potentially affecting energy fields [1, p. 328-339].
* Conflict in the Middle East is a recurring theme, escalating into wars where atomic weapons might be used [1, p. 253].
* A war between Turkey and Greece is predicted in the early 1990s, with Turkey potentially using nuclear weapons and sophisticated Russian technology [2, p. 207].
* World War III is mentioned in the index, indicating it is covered in the full text [1, p. 358].
The Anti-Christ:
* The Anti-Christ is a prominent figure discussed, with references to his rise to power, campaigns, and eventual downfall [2, p. 333 (index)].
* Social upheaval caused by drought and famine will assist the Anti-Christ in gaining power [1, p. 173].
* He is described as a spiritual leader and potential world-savior figure who attempts to capture Switzerland and invades Europe [2, p. 333 (index)]. He is predicted to use nuclear weapons and implement mass euthanasia [2, p. 333 (index)].
* A specific quatrain refers to two scientists (likened to "vestals" tending a sacred fire) who rebel against dictators trying to take over the world and bring forth nuclear power theories [1, p. 241]. This is tied to the Anti-Christ narrative.
* Another figure, Ogmios, identified as a student of Nostradamus and having a "special mission," is also described with astrological details [2, p. 83].
Technological Advancements:
* Modern inventions are depicted through imagery Nostradamus saw, such as the "box with the flickering light" (electricity/television) and the taming of electricity [1, p. 143].
* Microchips and communication technology are linked to electrical applications [1, p. 143].
* Submarines are depicted as part of a "fleet under water" [1, p. 143, 149]. Cylindrical objects seen by Dyonisus were submarines and missiles, potentially misinterpreted as spaceships [1, p. 149].
* Nuclear reactors are described visually as apparatus around glowing ore submerged in water, often within hollowed-out mountains [1, p. 164-165].
* Spaceships ("fish that flies over land and sea") and potential undersea bases are mentioned [1, p. 264]. UFOs are associated with "powers behind these vessels" and potential closer contact after conflict [1, p. 264].
* Space exploration, space stations, and space travel are topics discussed [1, p. 140-141, 144-146, 286, 289, 297, 305, 310-311].
* The concept of DNA computers and nanotechnology is mentioned, highlighting their efficiency and speed [1, p. 333, 343-345].
* Eugenics (genetic manipulation or cloning) is discussed as a possibility, potentially leading to the creation of humans "programmed for war" [1, p. 246-247].
Other Notable Points:
* The concept of different dimensions and astral travel is mentioned [1, p. 126].
* The interpretation of quatrains can have multiple layers of meaning [1, p. 165].
* Nostradamus uses historical and mythological references (like "vestals" or "heirs of Romulus") in a clever way to encode his visions [1, p. 241; 2, p. 62].
* Astrological alignments, such as Mercury in Sagittarius and Saturn in a "bad house," are linked to specific future events like the biological experiment accident [1, p. 242].
* The concept of a cosmic return of the "release of nuclear energy" is linked to astrological cycles (Jupiter and Saturn returning to the same positions) around 2002 [2, p. 312]. This is presented as a potential positive or negative event related to harnessing the atom [2, p. 312].
* A future figure, described as the "last pope," is discussed with a potential birthdate (1932) and a congenital physical deformity, hinting at a troubled past and potential cruelty [2, p. 74-75].

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the method used to communicate with Nostradamus in these sources?
The method primarily involves contacting individuals who can enter a trance state, such as Elena and John, and through their subconscious or spirit state, connect with Nostradamus. Dolores Cannon, the author, facilitates this communication by asking questions while the subject is in a deep hypnotic or trance state. This allows for a dialogue where Nostradamus, via the entranced individual, provides information and explanations regarding his prophecies (Sources 1 & 2).
How is Nostradamus described when he is seen in the trance states?
Nostradamus is described as being in an "incredible dimension where Nostradamus is still living" (Source 1). When seen through the entranced individuals, he is often depicted in his study, a stone house, surrounded by parchment scrolls, writing instruments, and various instruments (Source 1). He is described as a distinguished-looking, handsome man with grayish hair, a long thin nose, and piercing eyes. He has a flowing beard and mustache (Source 1). He is also sometimes associated with a cluttered "laboratory" setting with instruments (Source 1).
What are some of the future technologies and events that Nostradamus seems to foresee?
Nostradamus seems to foresee a range of future technologies and events. These include modern inventions with military applications, such as submarines and missiles, which he described as cylindrical objects (Source 1). He also appears to have envisioned electrical technology and communications using microchips (Source 1). More concerning are the predictions of advanced weaponry capable of causing widespread destruction, including something akin to atomic weapons ("bringing a piece of the sun down to the earth") and potentially a device that can cause earthquakes by directing sound waves (Source 1). He also mentions biological experiments in space that could lead to plagues upon re-entry into the atmosphere (Source 1), and the possibility of genetic manipulation or cloning for creating soldiers (Source 1). He also describes futuristic "airships" that fly above regular ships and even above airships (Source 1).
How does Nostradamus explain the astrological references in his quatrains?
Nostradamus utilizes astrology as a framework for his prophecies. He provides insights into the ruling planets of the zodiac signs as understood in his time and foresees the discovery of new planets that will rule Virgo and Libra in the future. He uses planetary positions and aspects, such as Saturn and Mars being in specific fire signs or Mars square Saturn, to indicate the timing and nature of events, often associating planetary energies with earthly occurrences like wars and friction between nations (Source 2). He sees planetary energies as "arcs of energy" affecting the world (Source 2). He also sometimes uses astrological notations like a "horoscope of the date" (Source 1).
What major Earth changes are predicted in the sources?
Significant and devastating Earth changes are predicted. These include a dramatic planetary shift occurring over a short period, potentially within six to ten hours, which will cause continents to change dramatically or cease to exist (Source 1). Severe earthquakes are foreseen, particularly affecting the West Coast of the United States in a triangle of cities (Los Angeles, San Francisco, and one other) (Source 1). Another major earthquake is described as being so severe it will rip open the Earth's crust and set off global earthquakes, leading to half of England being submerged and widespread famine and conflict over resources (Source 1). There are also predictions of sea level changes leading to major cities like St. Petersburg and parts of India and China being underwater, while other areas like Iceland and mountainous regions become islands or larger landmasses due to volcanic activity and uplift (Source 2).
How does Nostradamus describe his process for seeing visions?
Nostradamus's process for seeing visions is described as involving concentration and tuning into "higher spheres." He uses instruments, potentially for measurement, and mentions lighting a blue flame, possibly from burning alcohol, to aid in this process. These aids help him get "in tune with the higher vibrations of the universe which are very precise mathematically," allowing him to see many things or astrally travel to other dimensions (Source 1). He also sometimes uses a mirror to view visions (Source 2). He emphasizes that this ability is natural for him, though he also experiments with techniques to open the minds of his students (Source 1).
What is the role of astrology in Nostradamus's predictions according to the sources?
Astrology plays a crucial role in Nostradamus's predictions, not just as symbolic language but as a system for understanding and predicting events. He uses planetary movements, conjunctions, and aspects to indicate timeframes and the nature of occurrences like wars, natural disasters, and social upheavals (Source 1 & 2). He is seen as having a deep knowledge of ancient Greek and Roman astrology and is even willing to discuss the rulership of zodiac signs and the future discovery of planets that will impact astrological understanding (Source 2). His astrological knowledge helps him correlate cosmic events with earthly ones.
Are there predictions related to conflicts and geopolitical events in the sources?
Yes, the sources contain predictions related to significant conflicts and geopolitical events. These include warnings of devastating earthquakes in the United States, particularly on the West Coast and the New Madrid fault (Source 1 & 2). Conflicts in the Middle East are highlighted, with predictions of ongoing unrest escalating into wars and the potential use of atomic weapons (Source 1). There is also a prophecy of a war between Turkey and Greece, with Turkey potentially using advanced weapons and receiving support from Russia (Source 2). Social upheaval due to famine and drought is also foreseen, leading to migration and conflict over resources (Source 1). The rise of an "Anti-Christ" figure who gains power through social weakness and potentially uses advanced technologies and even eugenics is a recurring theme (Source 1 & 2).

Discussions include the ruling planets of signs (both known in his time and those to be discovered later), planetary aspects (Moon square Mars, Sun trine Jupiter, Mars square Saturn, stellium), and using astrological data to pinpoint specific dates or periods for prophecies.
* Key Figures: Nostradamus (the source of prophecies), Dolores Cannon (the hypnotist/author), Elena (a channeling subject), Dyonisus (a student of Nostradamus and channeling subject), John (a channeling subject and astrologer), Anti-Christ (a figure associated with conflict and upheaval), the "Others" or "Watchers" (extraterrestrial entities).
Additional Questions
How do the interpretations of Nostradamus' quatrains reveal recurring themes about future global events?
Based on the sources, the interpretations of Nostradamus' quatrains reveal several recurring themes about future global events, particularly those surrounding a period referred to as "the Time of Troubles". These interpretations, often obtained through trance channeling and astrological analysis as described in the sources, provide explanations for his deliberately obscure predictions. Nostradamus intended these prophecies to be understood so that humanity might have the knowledge to change what is predicted, believing in probable futures rather than a fixed destiny.
Here are some of the recurring themes identified in the interpretations:
* The Time of Troubles and Upheavals: This is highlighted as a major period of focus for Nostradamus, seen as being close to the time the conversations took place (late 20th/early 21st century). It is characterized by dramatic and violent Earth changes, which he called "the time of upheavals".
* Earth Changes and Environmental Issues: Significant Earth changes are a recurring theme. These include earthquakes and the awakening of long-dormant volcanoes, which are seen as severe and widespread, capable of depleting national economies more easily than war. Interpretations also mention a possible shift in the Earth's axis or poles. There are predictions of extreme droughts and floods, with one quatrain mentioning a potential 40-year drought (or 40 cycles), suggesting mankind's actions might cause the environment to get out of balance and trigger an ice age. This includes mention of a "year without a rainbow" symbolizing extreme dryness, seen as a sign of the Anti-Christ's coming.
* Plagues and Diseases: Plagues are seen as recurring, with Nostradamus connecting his time's plagues to future ones. The interpretations specifically mention AIDS (HIV virus) as a present plague that would spread widely. A future plague is described that causes sores on the body, appearing soon. Repeating patterns of plagues are mentioned in connection with Africa.
* Warfare and Global Conflict: While Nostradamus' prophecies can apply to wars throughout history due to repeating patterns, specific modern and future conflicts are interpreted. The translators initially had a fondness for seeing war in many quatrains. Interpretations refer to chemical warfare or gas potentially linked to World War I and hinting at World War II, the latter being seen as more calamitous. Conflicts involving Russia, the Middle East (Persia/Iran, Libya, Yugoslavia/gray area), and the United States are interpreted. The threat or use of nuclear force is mentioned as a key element in future conflicts, seen as potentially throwing everything "out of kilter".
* The Rise and Impact of the Anti-Christ: This figure is consistently depicted as a major force in the future, located at a central nexus of time that is difficult to avoid. Interpretations suggest he will arise from the Middle East and gain immense worldwide power, possibly conquering China and Russia and controlling the Asian continent. He is seen as causing some of the most terrible events in history. His methods include using propaganda and falsehoods, leveraging a communication network to gain and wield power, potentially bringing nations down by cutting off their communication. He is interpreted as attacking Europe, starting with areas like Macedonia, to demoralize Western culture by destroying respected sites.
* Religious and Philosophical Shifts: Nostradamus predicted trends in religions and philosophy, seeing them as having a profound effect on the world's future. Interpretations describe troubles for established religions. A significant theme is a potential great spiritual rebirth and a blending of the best aspects of Eastern and Western religions after the Time of Troubles, leading to a worldwide philosophical movement. The discovery of a "central spirit" or "life force" is mentioned, which will fundamentally change man's way of thinking, philosophy, medicine, and science – almost like a rebirth of the world.
* Technological Advancements: Concepts related to advanced technology, which were beyond understanding in Nostradamus' time, are interpreted. This includes the science of nanotechnology, seen potentially being used for good by the Great Genius. The Anti-Christ's use of a computer network is a key element of his power. There are also mentions of space exploration, potentially involving international cooperation.
These themes recur across different quatrains and through various interpretations, painting a complex and often grim picture of the future, yet tempered by the belief that knowledge of these possibilities can enable humanity to alter its path. The multiple meanings found in single quatrains, sometimes applying to past events and future ones simultaneously due to repeating patterns, also contribute to the recurring nature of these themes.
Why did Nostradamus obscure his quatrains?
Based on the provided sources and our conversation history, Nostradamus deliberately obscured his quatrains for several key recurring reasons:
* Protection from Persecution and Danger: This is arguably the most frequently cited reason.
* He feared for his life and his work if he wrote too clearly.
* In his time, Europe was very unsettled politically and religiously. Authorities, particularly the Church (Inquisition), did not tolerate views or activities that challenged their power or dogma.
* Writing in simple, unmistakable language about future events or things beyond the contemporary understanding could lead to accusations of being a madman, being in league with the Devil, or being a sorcerer, potentially resulting in being burned at the stake or imprisoned.
* He put the information in code so that authorities couldn't use it as direct evidence against him in court.
* He also disguised references to European political events or royalty due to the danger of writing discourteous statements.
* He saw what happened when others (like da Vinci, in the context of his papers being taken) were not discreet in writing down certain knowledge.
* Control over Timing and Understanding:
* He did not want his prophecies to be deciphered too soon.
* He wanted the information to be available when humanity was ready to understand, implying a more "enlightened age" compared to his own time.
* For those "not ready" or not able to comprehend, a clear prophecy would be frightening.
* His obscurity ensured his work would survive the centuries, whereas simple language might have led to destruction.
* He used techniques like obscure words, Latin, symbolism, anagrams, and play-on-words to create puzzles that would keep mankind interested in trying to solve them over time.
* He also intended to confuse those who might translate his work for profit.
* The Nature of Time and Visions:
* The quatrains often have more than one meaning or application, related to the concept of "continuous time" and the repeat of patterns. Events have the possibility of being similar or following similar general patterns across different time periods due to time moving in a spiral.
* He often had to combine two or three events into a single quatrain to fit the form.
* He was trying to describe things that were so far beyond the knowledge and vocabulary of mankind in his time that people couldn't recognize what he was describing until after they had already seen it happen.
* The Hope of Preventing Disasters:
* He did not want his prophecies, particularly the horrible ones, to come true.
* He was hoping that mankind could change the future.
* He wanted humanity to understand the warnings so they could take heed and try to protect themselves from the predicted events. He felt it was extremely urgent that this information be passed down.
In essence, Nostradamus navigated the treacherous waters of prophecy in a dangerous era by cloaking his visions in complexity. This obscurity served both as a shield to protect himself and his work from the dangers of his time and as a mechanism to ensure the survival and eventual understanding of his warnings by future generations, in the hope that awareness could avert disaster.
What was the function of centuries?
Based on the sources and our conversation history, the "Centuries" in Nostradamus' work refer both to the published collection of his prophecies and to the internal organizational structure within that book. However, their function was more complex than a simple division of a hundred quatrains each.
Here's a breakdown of the function of the "Centuries" according to the interpretations in the sources:
* A Deliberate Puzzle to Confuse: Nostradamus explicitly stated (through the channels) that arranging the quatrains into "Centuries" was one of the "misleading puzzles that he put in". He used the term "centuries" "not meaning that there is a hundred years of time" but "for a puzzlement, to confuse". This was intended to "confuse the issue, to confuse the period of time", particularly for "those who were translating for profit".
* Reflecting Multiple Meanings Across Time: The confusion regarding the period of time was connected to the fact that a quatrain could apply to more than one time period. By grouping them as he did, he made it difficult for interpreters to rigidly assign prophecies to specific hundred-year blocks, which aligns with the idea that time moves in a spiral and similar events or patterns can recur.
* A Matter of Convenience for the Manuscript: While serving as a puzzle, the arrangement into centuries was also done "out of convenience" for compiling the manuscript.
* Incompleteness Was Intentional/Due to Difficulty: Nostradamus knew that not all the centuries were complete, specifically mentioning Century VII having less than 100 quatrains. He stated this was because he "wasn't able to clarify the time channels to get all of them". This incompleteness was deliberate in the sense that all he wished to convey was included, despite the incomplete centuries.
* Encoding and Protection: Nostradamus also used the numbering system and arrangement within the centuries as encoding devices (including astrological congruences and numerology). This was part of his strategy to "slip past the Inquisition" and protect himself and his work from persecution, as simply dating the prophecies clearly would have been dangerous and led to accusations of being in league with the devil.
It is important to note that the word "century" is also used within the quatrains themselves to refer to a period of one hundred years of time. This is distinct from the structural grouping of the quatrains themselves into numbered Centuries within the book.
In summary, the function of the "Centuries" structure was multi-layered: it was a puzzle to intentionally confuse readers (especially profit-driven translators) about the timing of events, partly reflecting the non-linear nature of his visions and their applicability to multiple time periods, served as a convenient structural grouping, and contributed to the overall obscurity that helped protect his work from persecution.
When might the Anti-Christ appear?
Based on the sources and our conversation, the interpretations of Nostradamus' quatrains regarding the Anti-Christ's appearance reveal a multi-phased timeline rather than a single, precise date. His rise and impact are strongly associated with a period referred to as "the Time of Troubles".
Here are the key periods and markers mentioned in the interpretations concerning when the Anti-Christ might appear or rise to power:
* Early Life / Preparation Phase:
* At the time of the channeling sessions (late 20th century), the Anti-Christ is described as a "young man at a very crucial time in his life". Initially perceived to be in his late teens, possibly age 17 or 19.
* He is located "in the Middle East somewhere", specifically mentioned as being a college student in Egypt or coming from the Middle East generally. His origin is near three major bodies of water: the Mediterranean Sea, the Red Sea, and the Arabian Sea.
* He is being groomed and backed by an evil priest (Imam) who is the real power behind him. This priest plans and schemes over decades. The priest was born in the 1930s and dedicated himself to black forces.
* He loses his parents around the age of five or six, which is a significant event. Jean Dixon's vision suggested a significant event around age 11 would make him aware of his mission.
* He is described as very intelligent, beautiful, with a magnetic aura, studying philosophy at university.
* The evil being (Imam) will transfer his essence and energy to the young man, which is when he will become the Anti-Christ.
* Beginning of Ambition / Political Career:
* This phase begins when Jupiter is in Leo, which occurred from August 1990 to September 1991. During this time, he starts the "realization of his ambition" and begins his "political career, so to speak" on a "local" level within his own country.
* He will work "silently behind the scenes, consolidating his power" for many years.
* Rise to Power / Appearance on the International Scene:
* He will make his appearance in the international arena after his hidden structure is built. This happens when an event temporarily dims the apparent power of major nations.
* Astrologer John suggested July 1, 1994 (a grand trine of water signs) "may be the date of the Anti-Christ's coming to full power". However, it was noted he would be only about 25 at this time, which seems "incredibly young for such an accomplishment".
* The evil being's essence transfer, making the young man the Anti-Christ, is predicted to happen "in the 1990s".
* His chart is expected to be "triggered in the latter part of the 1990s". Specifically, Jupiter will be in his birth sign (Aquarius) in 1996-1997.
* The Anti-Christ's actions begin to come to pass "towards the end of the present pope's lifetime" (Pope John Paul II, who died in 2005). The majority of prophecies about him take place after this pope dies, with only two popes left to follow.
* A "dark young man" (possibly like Kadaffi or Saddam Hussein) will arise "shortly before the Anti-Christ" and set the stage for his takeover.
* He will attack Europe, starting with areas like Macedonia/Greece/Turkey and southern Europe/Italy/France. His European campaign starts after the second pope (after the "present" one) is assassinated, and interpretations placed this European campaign in the "mid-1990s".
* The beginning of the use of "major nuclear weapons" by the Anti-Christ is specifically linked to January 23, 1998. Century VI-35 also refers to him using nuclear weapons at the "beginning of 1998".
* A significant event, possibly related to nuclear destruction or a major accident, is linked to February 6, 2002, which Mark Lerner noted could be his 40th birthday if he was born on Feb 5, 1962 (Jean Dixon's date). This date shows significant astrological tension with the US chart and relates to nuclear activity.
* In the beginning, he will appear as a "world savior" with wondrous inventions, having a strong humanitarian streak before becoming jaded and corrupt after the death of the Imam.
* Duration of Reign/War:
* His war will last 27 years.
* His reign will be "very temporary", lasting "less than a revolution of Saturn".
* The "very evil century" (including the Time of Troubles) encompasses the period especially since World War II up to the end of the troubles, which "will almost encompass a century itself".
* End of his Reign:
* His downfall is predicted.
* The war will be a "long, gradual, hard thing".
* He will eventually have "a lot of world control".
* His end is potentially linked to a sudden, major Earth shift or tidal wave at a place called Ponteroso.
* After the Anti-Christ is no longer on Earth, his followers will cause difficulties.
In summary, the interpretations suggest the Anti-Christ's development and rise spanned the late 20th century, with key periods identified in the early to mid-1990s for the start of his political career and international appearance, the late 1990s (particularly 1998) for the beginning of nuclear warfare, and potentially early 2002 for a major event related to his power or nuclear issues. His reign of conflict is predicted to last 27 years but his actual time in supreme power will be much shorter and temporary compared to his ambition.
Where will the Anti-Christ rise to power?
Based on the sources and our conversation, the Anti-Christ is primarily associated with and is predicted to rise to power in the Middle East.
Here are the specific details from the sources regarding his location and where his rise begins:
* The General Region: He is explicitly located "in the Middle East somewhere". The broad area described is "Middle Earth," which includes eastern Europe, western Asia, and the Middle East. This region is characterized by political maneuvering, violence, and corruption.
* Near Three Bodies of Water: His origin or location is indicated by three major bodies of water somewhat nearby: the Mediterranean Sea, the Red Sea, and the Arabian Sea.
* Early Life and Base: The Anti-Christ, as a young man, is described as being in his own country in the Middle East. At the time of the channeling sessions, he was described as a college student in Egypt.
* Starting Point of Campaign: His campaign of power will "start his campaign of power" from the part of the world referred to as Persia. This is described as an area with enough political turmoil for someone to gain control quickly, possibly through a military coup.
* Consolidating Power: Initially, he will obtain power "within his sphere, that is Asia, the Middle East". He will spend many years "working silently behind the scenes consolidating his power" in his area of the world.
* Expansion:
* He will unite North Africa with his Asian and Middle Eastern conglomerate, being culturally sympathetic.
* From the Middle East, his campaign will extend to Asia, uniting the Asian continent. Russia is mentioned as his first major Asian conquest, achieved through guile rather than force. He will then turn to China and the rest of Asia.
* He will set up a regional headquarters in Byzantium (Turkey).
* He will approach Europe from the south, from his geographical orientation, after consolidating his power in the Middle East and North Africa. European beachheads are predicted in Corsica and Tuscany (northern Italy), which his forces will use to enter Europe. His route through southern France is described.
While he starts within his region, the sources suggest he does not necessarily have to be a native of the specific country where he begins to gather international power; he will go where he sees political weaknesses and exploit them.
What is the third Anti-Christ's likely birthplace?
Based on the sources and our conversation history, the specific birthplace of the third Anti-Christ is not given as a precise city or country name. However, the sources provide significant clues pointing to a particular region and circumstances:
* The General Region: He was born in a Middle Eastern country. His origin is linked to the Middle East, near three major bodies of water: the Mediterranean Sea, the Red Sea, and the Arabian Sea.
* Circumstances of Early Life: His parents were killed in the Israeli War, and he was taken from that area to be raised by his uncle. This strongly suggests his birthplace was located within or very near the conflict zone related to Israel and Palestine where the Israeli War took place.
* Relocation: After his parents' death, he was taken to another Middle Eastern country. At the time of the channeling sessions (late 20th century), he was described as a college student in Egypt, which was one of the few insights given about his location at that time.
* Distinction from Campaign Start: While his campaign of power is predicted to start from Persia, this refers to the region from which he launches his military and political actions, not necessarily his birthplace.
* No Precise Name Given: Nostradamus stated that it was hard for him to pinpoint the exact location due to turmoil and negative events clouding his vision. He also indicated that much about the Anti-Christ's background would remain a mystery.
* Jerusalem Mention: An astrologer named Mark Lerner randomly selected Jerusalem, Israel, as a potential birthplace for creating an astrological chart. However, the source explicitly states that he did not have access to the information about the parents being killed in the Israeli War. This suggests Jerusalem was a speculative choice by Lerner, not a confirmed location from Nostradamus' visions.
Therefore, while the exact location isn't named, the most likely birthplace, based on the circumstances described in the sources, is an area within the Middle East affected by the Israeli War where his parents were killed.
Detail the Third Antichrist’s Natal Zodiac Prediction by Nostradamus
Based on the sources and our conversation history, Nostradamus did provide specific details about the third Anti-Christ's natal zodiac or horoscope, revealed through channeling sessions and interpreted by an astrologer named John.
Here's a breakdown of the information about his predicted natal chart:
* The Ability to Obtain the Horoscope: Initially, Nostradamus found it difficult to see the Anti-Christ clearly, describing him as a "secretive figure shadowy", and that his location was hard to spot due to turmoil. However, the idea of drawing up a horoscope for him was proposed as "fantastic and exciting," though initially thought impossible. Later, Nostradamus was able to show an image of the horoscope.
* Birthdate and Basic Details:
* The horoscope shown by Nostradamus had "February, 1962" at the top.
* John, the astrologer, after studying his ephemeris and being shown the design used by Nostradamus, calculated the birthdate as February 4, 1962. He stated that this date "completely and accurately corresponded" to the horoscope design shown by Nostradamus, with odds "too tremendous to calculate" for it to be chance.
* A previous date suggested by another channel (Brenda), December 16, 1968, was clarified by Nostradamus as the date the Anti-Christ lost his parents, not his birthdate.
* Another astrologer, Mark Lerner, independently prepared a chart based on a random choice of Jerusalem, Israel as the birthplace, and came up with a date close to this, February 4 or 5, 1962. He noted there was a powerful total solar eclipse on February 5, 1962, with seven planets in Aquarius.
* Mark Lerner's chart placed Capricorn as the ascendant.
* Planetary Placements and Configurations:
* Nostradamus showed a horoscope design with Aquarius in the first house, and a significant grouping of planets there. John confirmed a stellium (a cluster of planets) in the first house in Aquarius.
* Specifically, the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn are all in the first house in Aquarius. The Aquarius sign is not intercepted.
* Uranus is in the sign of Leo in the seventh house. Uranus opposes all the Aquarian planets in the first house.
* Pluto is in Scorpio, located in the eighth house (the house of death). Pluto is described as being "very important" in his life.
* Neptune is in Scorpio. In Mark Lerner's chart, Neptune was exactly at mid-heaven (at the top of the chart).
* There is a semi-sextile between Uranus and Pluto. Neptune in Scorpio is the focus of a T-square with his Aquarian stellium and Leo North Node. Pluto in Scorpio in the eighth house adds to this significant Scorpio involvement.
* Astrological Interpretations from the Natal Chart:
* The Sun is described as being in a "place of fire," giving him a magnetic personality.
* The "three water signs" mentioned in CENTURY I-50 as relating to his geographical origin (Mediterranean, Red Sea, Arabian Sea) are also said to be predominant in his horoscope.
* The stellium of planets in the first house in Aquarius signifies a lack of compassion and understanding of others.
* Venus in Aquarius suggests that he will initially present himself as a very strong humanitarian and may even use ideas similar to the World Peace Movement, using "humanitarian impulses to his advantage". He will appear as a "world savior" with wondrous inventions.
* The phrase "Saturn will dominate Jupiter" from CENTURY V-24 is reflected in his chart because Saturn is in its co-ruling position in Aquarius, where it dominates Jupiter, which is also in Aquarius.
* The Sun in Aquarius is in its "Fall" position, considered one of the "darkest times of the year for the sun energy".
* Neptune at mid-heaven (as in Lerner's chart) indicates a "Pied Piper figure" who would be able to "mesmerize millions of people".
* His Capricorn ascendant is "symbolically similar to the Devil card in the Tarot" and is ruled by Saturn.
* The significant involvement of Neptune and Pluto in Scorpio, particularly Pluto in the eighth house of death, is linked to his predicted death by a tidal wave.
* Clues Hidden in Quatrains: Nostradamus hid information about the Anti-Christ's natal stellium within CENTURY VI-35 by referring to the rulers of the signs mentioned in the quatrain (Aries/Mars, Taurus/Venus, Cancer/Moon, Leo/Sun, Virgo/Mercury). This allowed astrologers, if they had the key, to deduce the presence of these planets, which constitute a major part of his birth chart's stellium. This was considered a "remarkable discovery".
* Astrological Activations/Timelines: John suggested that comparing planetary transits to this natal chart could show when his chart would be "triggered".
* Jupiter in Leo (August 1990 to September 1991) was seen as the period when he would begin the "realization of his ambition" and start his political career on a local level.
* His chart was expected to be triggered in the "latter part of the 1990s," with Uranus and Neptune being in his birth sign (Aquarius) and Jupiter there in 1996-1997.
* His mid-life crisis (astrologically, Uranus opposing its natal position) was expected to strike around 2002.
* Astrological alignments on February 6, 2002, close to his 40th birthday, showed significant tension and were linked to the possibility of an extreme event, like a nuclear issue, related to him.
In summary, the sources provide a detailed predicted natal horoscope for the third Anti-Christ, pointing to a birthdate of February 4, 1962, with a strong concentration of planets (a stellium of Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn) in the first house in Aquarius, along with other significant placements and aspects that are interpreted as defining his personality, initial facade, and eventual destructive nature. These details were deliberately hidden within Nostradamus' quatrains, requiring astrological knowledge to decipher.
