Bible prophecies pertain to the land of Jerusalem and the regions round about. The
prophecies of Nostradamus (1503-1566) pertain to "the regions, countries, & most of
the towns & cities of all Europe, including Africa & a portion of Asia" (Epistle to
Henry II). Reliable fulfillment of Bible prophecies will have repercussions throughout
the world. If those repercussions affect places mentioned by Nostradamus in ways that
he predicted, the spiritual authority of his prophecies would increase. Nostradamus
prophecies are quatrains, 4-line poems assembled in groups of 100 called Centuries,
in his book Les Propheties (The Prophecies), published in 1555, 1557, 1558, and 1568
editions. From 1588 to 1643 there were various additions to the 1568 edition: 27 Extra
Quatrains of undetermined authorship; 141 quatrains called Presages extracted from
1555 to 1567 Almanachs written by Nostradamus; 58 6-line poems of undetermined
authorship called Sixains, which claimed to be predictions for the 17th century only.
Original manuscripts of Les Propheties have not been found. Textual comparison of
printed editions has been available at http://www.propheties.it/comparison.htm.
Quatrain texts presented on this website are those published in 2012 by Richard
Sieburth, who relied on textual criticism by Pierre Brind'Amour (1996) and Bruno
Petey-Girard (2003). All have ABAB rhyming except for 6:53 and 6:96 (ABBA),
7:17 (AABB), 8:52 (line 4 has only 4 syllables), and 10:91 (which doesn't rhyme).

The 1568 Guinard X edition [download] was cobbled together to make an omnibus
edition of all 942 quatrains. Instead of one title page covering all ten Centuries, it has
two title pages, the second covering the Epistle to Henry II (1558) and Centuries 8-10.
The Preface after the first title page is in italic type; the Epistle after the second title
page is not. The quatrain numbers for Centuries 1-7 are in italic type; the quatrain
numbers for Centuries 8-10 are not. Century 7 ends at page 125; page numbering
starts over again at the title page for Centuries 8-10. The 1558 Epistle to Henry II,
who died in 1559, would only make sense if it was published while Henry II was still
alive. The Epistle introduced "these three Centuries of my remaining prophecies
that round off the thousand." All of this is evidence that all 942 quatrains of Les
Propheties were in print in 1558, 8 years prior to the 1566 death of Nostradamus.

Christian eschatology, the study of the end times from a biblical point of view, has been
dominated by those who imagine possible scenarios and then cite Bible passages as
evidence. The Islamic Antichrist, a book first published in 2006 by Joel Richardson,
shocked scenario theorists. What the Bible actually teaches about the end times, due to
the geography involved, necessarily involves the Islamic world. Even more shocking
was Richardson's demonstration that Islamic eschatology is a reverse version of
Christian eschatology. The Bible's Antichrist is the Islamic Mahdi. The Bible's false
prophet is the Islamic Isa. The Bible's Jesus is the Islamic Dajjal. In 2012, a student of
Bible prophecy writing under the pen name Mark Davidson began publishing books
about his discovery that Revelation 6, Daniel 7, and Daniel 8 all describe in different
imageries a sequence of four events in the Islamic world that must precede the reign
of the Mahdi/Antichrist. The most useful of these books are Daniel Revisited (2013)
and Chronicles of the End Times (2018).

1 And I saw, when the
Lamb opened one of
the seals, one of the
four beasts, and I
heard, as it were, the
noise of thunder,
saying, Come and see.
2 And I saw, and
behold a white horse,
and he that sat on
him had a bow, and a
crown was given unto
him, and he went
forth conquering and
to conquer.		 1 In the first year of
Belshazzar king of
Babylon, Daniel had
a dream and visions
of his head upon his
bed; then he wrote
the dream, and told
the sum of the
matters.
2 Daniel spake and
said, I saw in my
vision by night, and,
behold, the four
winds of the heaven
strove upon the
great sea.
3 And four great
beasts came up from
the sea, diverse one
from another.
4 The first was like a
lion, and had eagle's
wings; I beheld till
the wings thereof
were plucked, and
it was lifted up from
the earth, and made
stand upon the feet
as a man, and a man's
heart was given to it.		 1 In the third year of
the reign of king
Belshazzar a vision
appeared unto me,
even unto me Daniel,
after that which
appeared unto me at
the first.
2 And I saw in a
vision; and it came
to pass, when I saw,
that I was at Shushan
in the palace, which
is in the province of
Elam; and I saw in a
vision, and I was by
the river Ulai.
3 Then I lifted up mine
eyes, and saw, and,
behold, there stood
before the river a ram
which had two horns
[in verse 20 interpreted
as "the kings of Media
and Persia" (Iran)];
and the two horns [the
Supreme Leader and
IRGC] were high; but
one was higher than
the other, and the
higher [IRGC] came
up last.		 47:1
Come down, and sit
in the dust, O virgin
daughter of Babylon;
sit on the ground, there
is no throne, O
daughter of the
Chaldeans; for thou
shalt no more be called
tender and delicate.
3 And when he had
opened the second
seal, I heard the
second beast say,
Come and see.
4 And there went out
another horse that
was red; and power
was given to him that
sat thereon to take
peace from the earth,
and that they should
kill one another; and
there was given unto
him a great sword.		 5 And behold another
beast, a second, like
to a bear, and it
raised up itself on
one side, and it had
three ribs in the
mouth of it between
the teeth of it; and
they said thus unto
it, Arise, devour
much flesh.		 4 I saw the ram
pushing westward,
and northward, and
southward; so that no
beasts might stand
before him, neither
was there any that
could deliver out of
his hand; but he did
according to his will,
and became great.		 21:1-4
The burden of the
desert of the sea. As
whirlwinds in the south
pass through, so it
cometh from the desert,
from a terrible land.
A grievous vision is
declared unto me: The
treacherous dealer
dealeth treacherously,
and the spoiler spoileth.
Go up, O Elam!
Besiege, O Media!
[Elam + Media = Iran]
All the sighing thereof
have I made to cease.
Therefore are my
loins filled with pain;
pangs have taken hold
upon me as the pangs
of a woman that
travaileth; I was bowed
down at the hearing of
it; I was dismayed at
the seeing of it.
My heart panted;
fearfulness affrighted
me; the night of my
pleasure hath he turned
into fear unto me.		 Ezekiel 25:4
Behold, therefore I will
deliver thee [Ammon]
to the men of the east
for a possession, and
they shall set their
palaces in thee, and
make their dwellings
in thee: they shall eat
thy fruit, and they
shall drink thy milk.

Ezekiel 25:8-11
Thus saith the Lord
GOD; Because that
Moab and Seir do say,
Behold, the house of
Judah is like unto all
the heathen; therefore,
behold, I will open the
side of Moab from the
cities, from his cities
which are on his
frontiers, the glory of
the country,
Bethjeshimoth,
Baalmeon, and
Kiriathaim, unto the
men of the east with
the Ammonites, and
will give them in
possession, that the
Ammonites may not
be remembered among
the nations. And I
will execute
judgments upon Moab;
and they shall know
that I am the LORD.

5 And when he had
opened the third seal,
I heard the third
beast say, Come and
see. And I beheld,
and lo a black horse;
and he that sat on
him had a pair of
balances in his hand.
6 And I heard a
voice in the midst
of the four beasts
say, A measure of
wheat for a penny,
and three measures
of barley for a
penny; and hurt not
thou the oil and the
wine.		 6 After this I beheld,
and lo another, like
a leopard, which had
upon the back of it
four wings of a fowl;
the beast had also
four heads; and
dominion was given
to it.		 5 And as I was
considering, behold,
an he goat [in verse 21
interpreted as "the
king of Grecia," but
"Grecia" is "Javan,"
which included
western Turkiye]
came from the west on
the face of the whole
earth, and touched
not the ground; and
the goat had a notable
horn between his eyes.
6 And he came to the
ram that had two
horns, which I had
seen standing before
the river, and ran
unto him in the fury
of his power.
7 And I saw him come
close unto the ram,
and he was moved
with choler against
him, and smote the
ram, and brake his
two horns; and there
was no power in the
ram to stand before
him, but he cast him
down to the ground,
and stamped upon him;
and there was none
that could deliver the
ram out of his hand.
8a Therefore the he
goat waxed very
great ...		 33:1
Woe to thee that
spoilest and thou wast
not spoiled and dealest
treacherously and they
dealt not treacherously
with thee! When thou
shalt cease to spoil,
thou shalt be spoiled;
and when thou shalt
make an end to deal
treacherously, they
shall deal
treacherously with
thee.		Jeremiah 49:35-38
Thus saith the LORD of
hosts, Behold, I will
break the bow of Elam,
the chief of their might,
and upon Elam will I
bring the four winds
from the four quarters
of heaven and will
scatter them toward all
those winds, and there
shall be no nation
whither the outcasts of
Elam shall not come,
for I will cause Elam
to be dismayed before
their enemies and
before them that seek
their life, and I will
bring evil upon them,
even my fierce anger,
saith the LORD, and
I will send the sword
after them till I have
consumed them, and I
will set my throne in
Elam and will destroy
from thence the king
and the princes, saith
the LORD.
7 And when he had
opened the fourth
seal, I heard the
voice of the fourth
beast say, Come and
see.
8 And I looked, and
behold a pale
[chloros = green]
horse; and his name
that sat on him was
Death, and Hell
followed with him.
And power was given
unto them [Death and
Hell] over the fourth
part of the earth, to
kill with sword, and
with hunger, and with
death, and with the
beasts of the earth.		 7 After this I saw in
the night visions,
and behold a fourth
beast, dreadful and
terrible, and strong
exceedingly; and it
had great iron teeth;
it devoured and
brake in pieces, and
stamped the residue
with the feet of it;
and it was diverse
from all the beasts
that were before it;
and it had ten horns.
8 I considered the
horns, and, behold,
there came up among
them another little
horn, before whom
there were three of
the first horns
plucked up by the
roots; and, behold,
in this horn were
eyes like the eyes of
man, and a mouth
speaking great things.
23 ... the fourth beast
shall be the fourth
kingdom upon earth,
which shall be diverse
from all kingdoms,
and shall devour the
whole earth, and
shall tread it down,
and break it in pieces.		 8b ... and when he was
strong, the great horn
was broken; and for it
came up four notable
ones toward the four
winds of heaven.
9 And out of one of
them came forth a
little horn, which
waxed exceeding great
toward the south, and
toward the east, and
toward the pleasant
land.

Many of the current flags of Arab countries are based on this 1917
Flag of the Arab Revolt, except that the white bar was moved to the
center. The original color order matches the four horse colors of
Revelation 6 in a clockwise direction. Using the inward point of the
red triangle as the center of a clock, and starting in the half-past
position, the passing hand of time would sweep through white, red,
black, and green, the order of horse colors in Revelation 6. Since
2004, a commemorative Flag of the Arab Revolt has flown on the
Aqaba Flagpole in Aqaba Jordan. See video about Aqaba Jordan
(Aqaba Flagpole coverage begins at 3:07).

5 of 113 fulfilled

first signpost: white horse

Revelation 6:2
And I saw, and behold a white horse, and he that sat on him had a bow, and
a crown was given unto him, and he went forth conquering and to conquer.
Saddam Hussein riding a white horse in 1990
Daniel 7:4
The first was like a lion, and had eagle's wings; I beheld till the wings
thereof were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made
stand upon the feet as a man, and a man's heart was given to it.
Lions and eagles are animals that eat other animals. Lions look over potential
prey and select easy targets. Eagles soar so that they can spot easy prey to swoop
down on. In 1979, Saddam Hussein (1937-2006) became the President of Iraq,
and Ruhollah Khomeini (1902-1989) became the Supreme Leader of Iran. In
1980, Iraq invaded the oil fields of the Khuzestan Province of Iran, resulting in
the Iran-Iraq War of 1980-1988. In 1990, Iraq invaded the oil fields of Kuwait,
resulting in the Gulf War of 1990-1991. In 2003, the United States and allied
nations invaded Iraq, removing Saddam Hussein from power and forcing Iraq
to form a more civilized government.

1:55
Soubz l'opposite climat Babylonique
Grande sera se sang effusion
Que terre & mer, air, ciel sera inique :
Sectes, faim, regnes, pestes, confusion.
Richard Sieburth 2012
Over against where Babel used to stand
Blood shall be spilled in such great effusion
as to defile sky & air, sea & land :
Sects, famine, kingdoms, plagues, confusion.

1:70
Pluie, faim, guerre en Perse non cessée,
La foy trop grande trahira le monarque :
Par là finie en Gaule commencée,
Secret augure pour à un estre parque.
Erika Cheetham 1989
Nonstop rain, famine and war in Persia;
too great a trust will betray the monarch.
The result, started in France, will end there,
a secret treaty for someone to be lenient.

Line 1 was fulfilled by the Iran-Iraq War of 1980-1988. Line 2 may refer
to the 1979 replacement of the Shah of Iran by Supreme Leader Ruhollah
Khomeini, who had in 1978 been exiled to France by the then Vice
President of Iraq Saddam Hussein. Lines 3-4 may refer to French
appeasement via the 2015 Iran Nuclear Deal.

3:44
Quand l'animal à l'homme domestique,
Après grands peines & sauts viendra parler :
Le fouldre à vierge sera si malefique,
De terre prinse & suspendue en l'air.
Richard Smoley 2006
When the animal domesticated by man
After great pains and leaps comes to speak,
The lightning to the virgin will be so harmful,
Taken from the ground, and hung up in the air.

Although no specific place for fulfillment is mentioned, compare with 8:96
and Isaiah 47:1: "Come down, and sit in the dust, O virgin daughter of
Babylon; sit on the ground, there is no throne, O daughter of the
Chaldeans; for thou shalt no more be called tender and delicate." "Come
down" is echoed by "it was lifted up from the earth and made stand upon
the feet as a man and a man’s heart was given to it" (Daniel 7:4). The result
of the 2003 war was that Iraq, "the daughter of the Chaldeans," was forced
to become a more civilized country. Her dictator, Saddam Hussein, had
been guilty of ordering or allowing crimes against humanity.

8:70
Il entrera vilain, meschant, infame
Tyrannisant la Mesopotamie,
Tous amys fait d'adulterine d'ame
Tertre horrible, noir de phisonomie.
Edgar Leoni 1961
He will enter ugly, wicked, infamous,
Tyrannizing over "Mesopotamia":
All friends made by the adulterine lady,
Land horrible black of physiognomy.
Richard Smoley 2006
He will come in a villain, cruel, infamous,
Tyrannizing Mesopotamia,
All friends made by the adulteress of the soul.
Horrible mound, black in countenance.

Saddam Hussein

Leoni explained why he put "Mesopotamia" in quotation marks: "Probably
[indicated] Avignon and the surrounding Venaissin County, between the
Rhône and Durance rivers [in France], a papal possession until 1791." From
1309 to 1376, the Roman Catholic church had its headquarters at Avignon,
France. The Avignon papacy was also known as the Babylonian Captivity.
With the advantage of hindsight, Peter Lemesurier, in his 1993 book
Nostradamus: The Next 50 Years, could comment: "Until quite recently
nobody had managed to decode this prediction satisfactorily. With the
recent advent and rapid passing of the so-called Gulf War in Kuwait,
however, its fulfillment seems all too obvious. Despite the intervention of
undisguised biblical imagery, everything seems well described, even the
almost apocalyptic scenes of darkened skies and oil-covered desert which
filled the television screens for days on end." As Saddam Hussein's forces
retreated from Kuwait, they set oil wells on fire.

In line 3 "d'ame" (of the soul) looks similar to "dame" (lady).
Both meanings may have been intended.

8:96
La synagogue sterile sans nul fruit
Sera receu entre les infideles
De Babylon la fille de porsuit
Misere & triste luy trenchera les aisles.
Richard Sieburth 2012
The barren, fruitless synagogue of yore
Shall find welcome among the infidels :
The sad daughter of the victims of Babylon
Shall have her wretched wings clipped quite well.

Compare "sad daughter of the victims of Babylon" with
"sit in the dust, O virgin daughter of Babylon" (Isaiah 47:1).
Compare "wings clipped" with "wings thereof were plucked" (Daniel 7:4).

second signpost: red horse

Revelation 6:4
And there went out another horse that was red, and power was given to
him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should
kill one another, and there was given unto him a great sword.
In Thayer’s Greek-English Lexicon of the New Testament, the Greek word translated
"sword" in Revelation 6:4 is listed under "as a weapon for making or repelling an
attack." Due to its connection with "sword," the Greek word translated "great"
means "long." "A long weapon for making or repelling an attack" is referring to
Iran's missiles, which have already been used to strike targets hundreds of miles
away with pinpoint accuracy.
Isaiah 21:1-4
The burden of the desert of the sea. As whirlwinds in the south pass
through, so it cometh from the desert, from a terrible land. A grievous
vision is declared unto me: The treacherous dealer dealeth treacherously,
and the spoiler spoileth. Go up, O Elam! Besiege, O Media! All the
sighing thereof have I made to cease. Therefore are my loins filled with
pain; pangs have taken hold upon me as the pangs of a woman that
travaileth; I was bowed down at the hearing of it; I was dismayed at the
seeing of it. My heart panted; fearfulness affrighted me; the night of my
pleasure hath he turned into fear unto me.
On 2015-04-01, Kim Clement (1956-2016) prophesied concerning Iran or a proxy in
Yemen invading Saudi Arabia. Kim is standing in silence with his eyes closed. He
exhales as if he has seen something unpleasant. He then says, "I see a king falling
[exhales again], I see a king falling. Saudi Arabia, Yemen [portions of which are armed
by Iran], Solomon [Saudi Arabia’s King Salman]. Lord, you’re not pleased [bows his
head]. The wall, there’s a wall being built that will not be completed [two days after
this prophecy, Saudi Arabia began removing portions of a barrier between itself and
Yemen], for a takeover, already a plan. Iran, you have wicked plans. Your wickedness
cannot be covered. I've seen you, says the Lord. I’ve already spoken about you [in
Isaiah 21:2, Daniel 7:5, 8:4,20, Revelation 6:4]. Father, I just pray you’d [whew!] stop,
just for a minute."

One of the most useful features of Bible Hub displays of Bible verses is its "Interlin"
(Interlinear) function, which lines up text, Strong's word numbers, and English
translation. By employing the "Interlin" function on Isaiah 21:2 and Isaiah 33:1, a
relationship between those two verses becomes blantantly obvious. The same words
used in the same way in both verses requires that English translations use the same
English words for corresponding Hebrew words. The Jewish Publication Society's
current translation does this admirably (I have inserted Strong's numbers in
brackets).

Isaiah 21:2
A harsh prophecy
Has been announced to me:
The betrayer [898] is betraying [898],
The ravager [7703] is ravaging [7703].
Advance, Elam!
Lay siege, Media!
I have put an end
To all her sighing.

Isaiah 33:1
Ha, you ravager [7703] who are not ravaged [7703],
You betrayer [898] who have not been betrayed [898]!
When you have done ravaging [7703], you shall be ravaged [7703];
When you have finished betraying [898], you shall be betrayed [898].

The "her" of Isaiah 21:2 may refer to the "Desert of the Sea" (Arabian Peninsula)
in Isaiah 21:1, and the Islamic Republic of Iran may very well be the "betrayer"
and "ravager" mentioned in Isaiah 21:2 and 33:1. The Jewish Study Bible (Second
Edition) has this comment about Isaiah 33:1: "The enemy is not identified, perhaps
because in Isaiah's historical context the enemy was obviously Assyria." That
statement would not have been written had the obvious relationship between Isaiah
21:2 and 33:1 been noticed. I think that Isaiah 21:2 describes conditions at the
beginning of the second signpost invasions, while Isaiah 33:1 describes conditions
at the beginning of the third signpost counterinvasion, in harmony with Daniel
8:5-7 and Jeremiah 49:34-39 concerning the fall of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
Daniel 7:5
And behold another beast, a second, like to a bear, and it raised up itself
on one side, and it had three ribs in the mouth of it between the teeth of
it: and they said thus unto it, Arise, devour much flesh.
Notice that three ribs would be in the bear’s mouth prior to the commandment, "Arise,
devour much flesh." Prior to the establishment of the Islamic Republic of Iran in 1979,
in 1971 Iran seized three islands in the Persian Gulf that the Iranian regime still controls.
Daniel 8:3-4,20
Then I lifted up mine eyes, and saw, and, behold, there stood before the
river a ram which had two horns: and the two horns were high; but one
was higher than the other, and the higher came up last. I saw the ram
pushing westward, and northward, and southward; so that no beasts
might stand before him, neither was there any that could deliver out of
his hand; but he did according to his will, and became great... The ram
which thou sawest having two horns are the kings of Media and Persia.
From the lands conquered by Muhammad, the Rashidun caliphate, the four "rightly
guided" caliphs after Muhammad, expanded in three directions, north, east, and west.
According to Daniel 8:4, Iran will expand in three direction, west, north, and south.
The map of lands that Iran will control may end up looking pretty much like the map
of lands controlled by the Rashidun caliphate, except that Israel, which did not exist
back then, will not be conquered.

When Hamas brutally attacked Israelis on 2023-10-07, the Iranian regime rejoiced. Yet
within days Israel's furious yet methodical counterattack shocked the enemies of Israel
in Iran, the UN, and some European countries. The Iranian regime was angry that Islamic
countries did not immediately break off all economic relations with Israel. Iranian
experts drew up a map showing which Islamic nations were at fault, which was published
on 2023-11-26 by the Islamic Republic News Agency, including on its website in English.

So by 2023-11-26 the Iranian regime had already documented a major flaw in their plans
to end the State of Israel through proxies like Hamas and Hezbollah. Events are forcing
Iran to do what Daniel 8 prophesied Iran would do: invade Islamic countries to the west,
the north, and the south to end their economic relations with Israel.

Since Nostradamus (1503-1566) lived when the Ottoman Empire was near the height
of its powers, his statements about Persia invading lands then controlled by the
Ottoman Empire were intended to be predictive. A future Persia would invade
Trabzon Turkiye (5:27), Istanbul Turkiye (5:25 5:86), Macedonia Greece (2:96), the
Cyclades islands between mainland Greece and Turkiye (3:64), and Egypt (5:25), all
under Ottoman Empire control when Les Propheties was first published (1555-1558).
Persian forces or forces inspired by Persia would also attack places in Europe that
had not been controlled by the Ottoman Empire. Persians would stir up North
Africans to attack France (1:73) and other places in Europe, including Venice, Rome,
Malta (1:9). An Arab leader from Yemen (which has close ties with Iran) would
conquer Granada in Spain (5:55). An admiral from Iran would lead a naval attack
on Marseille France (1:18 3:79 3:90) and Siena Italy (1:18).

De l'Orient viendra le cœur Punique
Facher Hadrie & les hoirs Romulides
Accompagné de la classe Libyque

Richard Sieburth 2012
The Punic heart shall emerge from the East
To vex Adria & Romulus's heirs
Accompanied by the Libyan fleet :
Malta shall tremble & nearby isles lie bare.

Compare "The Punic heart shall emerge from the East" with 2:60.
In the 1555 edition, line 4 began with "Trembler."
In the 1568 edition, line 4 began with "Temples."

Off tower of Bouc Barbary galley's sails,
Long long after the armada of Spain :
The two destroying cattle, people, chattel,
From Taurus to Libra what deadly raids!

The ancient Tour de Bouc near Marseille France is surrounded by a 17th century fort.

The first attack of Tour de Bouc may be by Sunni North Africans armed and stirred
up by Shia Iranians to invade Europe. During SP3, Spain may be conquered by a
Turkiye-led confederacy (3:20 8:51 8:94). The later attack of Tour de Bouc may
come from Spain under Islamic rule (3:88). It may happen during SP4 after the SP3
confederacy has been broken up (Daniel 8:8).

Lemesurier (2003): "... 'blue-turbans' and 'white-turbans' are specifically
identified by Nostradamus in his 1566 Almanach as feuding Muslim sects of
the time (namely the Shi'ites of Persia and the Sunni of Turkey)." Ottoman
Empire Sultans from 1299 to 1808 wore white turbans. Although the Persian
Shahs of the Safavid Empire (1501-1736) wore turbans of various colors, in
the time of Nostradamus, "perse" meant both "Persia" and "blue."

Many executed, talking as they die :
Stone striking tree : proud people on its knees :
Man-beast monster born : purge & purify.

Although no specific place for fulfillment is mentioned, missiles are a key
part of Iran's military arsenal. On 2020-01-08 they were actually used to
strike with pinpoint accuracy two American military bases in Iraq.

On the Median, Arab, Armenian plains
Three times in battle shall two great hosts meet :
Near the banks of the Araxes the main
Of great Süleyman goes down in defeat.

Both Nostradamus and Suleiman the Magnificent, Sultan of the Ottoman Empire
died in 1566. During Suleiman's reign, Turkish forces prevailed in battles against
the Safavid Persians. Nostradamus was here predicting that the forces of a future
Turkish leader would be defeated near the Aras river that flows eastward through
eastern Turkiye before serving as borders between Turkiye and Armenia, Iran and
Azerbaijan, and Iran and Armenia on its way to the Caspian Sea.

Persia's chief shall load up great OLXADES
With Parthians & Medes, a fleet of triremes
Against the Muslims, & sack the Cyclades :
At the great Ionian port they'll be at ease.

OLXADES = Olcades = Cartagena Spain, where there is a major naval base.
Contre gent Mahometique = Iran invading Sunni countries.
Parthe & Mede = Parthia and Media, areas in Iran.
Cyclades are Greek islands in the Aegean Sea.
Grand port Ionique = Izmir, the third largest city in Turkey.

Le grand Satyre & Tigre d'Hyrcanie,
Don presenté à ceux de l'Ocean :
Un chef de classe istra de Carmanie,
Qui prendra terre au Tyrren Phocean.
Edgar Leoni 1961 [footnote his]
The great Satyr and Tiger of Hyrcania,
Gift presented to* those of the Ocean:
A fleet's chief will set out from Carmania,
One who will take land at the "Tyrren Phocaean."
_____________- * or possibly "by"
John Hogue 1997 [bracketed insert his]
The great Satyr and Tiger of Hyrcania,
Gift presented to [by?] those of the Ocean:
A chief of the fleet will issue forth from Carmania,
Who will take land at Tyrren Phocean.
Peter Lemesurier 2010 [bracketed inserts his]
The great Satyr [Ape] and Tiger from Hyrcania,
as a gift [shall be] presented to those of the Ocean:
a naval chief shall set out from Carmania
who shall take [the] land from the ruler of Marseille.

Leoni commented: "Both Carmania and Hyrcania were provinces of classical
Persia. We have here a Persian expedition setting out from the Persian Gulf,
but there being no Suez Canal then, it could not be entirely a naval one. The
geography of the last line is uncertain. 'Phocaean' is always used elsewhere
for Marseilles, but Marseilles is not on the Tyrrhenian Sea." Lemesurier did
not think that "Tyrren" in line 4 referred to the Tyrrhenian Sea. He translated
"Tyrren" as "ruler." Would a city like Marseille have a ruler? It might if
martial law were in effect prior to the predicted conquering. Nostradamus
used "Tyrrhene" to designate the Tyrrhenian Sea in Presages 2 27 31.
Hyrcanian tigers are mentioned in three plays by Shakespeare:
Henry VI, Part 3 (1591) act 1 scene 4
But you are more inhuman, more inexorable,
O, ten times more, than tigers of Hyrcania.
Hamlet (1599-1601) act 2 scene 2
The rugged Pyrrhus, like the Hyrcanian beast ...
Macbeth (1606) act 3 scene 4
What man dare, I dare:
Approach thou like the rugged Russian bear,
The arm'd rhinoceros, or the Hyrcan tiger;
Take any shape but that, and my firm nerves
Shall never tremble.
Hyrcanian tigers are thought to be extinct. A gift of tigers by those of the
Ocean for restoration to the forests of Hyrcania makes more sense than
Iran giving what it no longer has. Carmania is also mentioned in 10:31.

4:59
Deux assiegez en ardente ferveur,
De soif estaincts pour deux plaines tasses :
Le fort limé, & un vieillart resveur
Aux Genevois de Nira monstra trasses.
Edgar Leoni 1961
Two beset in burning fervor:
By thirst for two full cups extinguished,
The fort filed, and an old dreamer,
To the Genevans he will show the track from "Nira."
Peter Lemesurier 1997 paraphrase
Besieged leaders die of thirst, while an old dreamer
shows the Genevans what Iran has done.

Although Leoni admitted that Nira was an enigmatic name universal in all
editions, he suggested that it could have been a misprint, never corrected,
for Jura. He commented: "Some modern-minded interpreters have raised
the totally irrelevant point that it is a perfect anagram for Iran (Persia)."
Cheetham's 1973 translation noted that Nira is an anagram of modern Iran,
an observation not included in her 1989 translation. In his 1997 The
Nostradamus Encyclopedia, Lemesurier thought that Nira is an anagram
for Iran, but his 2003 translation guessed that Nira was a misprint for Nice.
Genevois (Genevans) and Nira (Iran) may be related to the Rosne (Rhône)
and Perse (Persia) of 2:96.

5:25
Le prince Arabe, Mars, Sol, Venus, Lyon,
Regne d'Eglise par mer succombera :
Devers la Perse bien près d'un million,
Bisance, Egypte, ver. serp. invadera.
Richard Sieburth 2012
The Arab Prince, Mars, Sun, Venus, Lion :
By the sea shall all Christendom succumb :
Out there in Persia more than a million :
The snake shall invade Egypt, Byzantium.

Le prince Arabe = Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan was crown prince of Abu Dhabi
until 2022-05-13, when he became its ruler. On 2022-05-14 he became the president of UAE.
Mars = UAE Hope Probe launched 2020-07-19 achieved orbit around Mars 2021-02-09. On
2021-10-09, UAE announced that the Hope Probe has discovered abundant oxygen on Mars.
Sol = Sun = Sunday = Christians (5:11 5:53). UAE added Sunday to its weekends in 2022.
Venus = the planet Venus = Friday = Muslims. UAE Venus mission is scheduled for 2028.
Lyon can mean a city in France, the animal, emblem of the animal, or Leo in the zodiac.
Regne d'Eglise par mer succombera = both UK and USA have naval bases at Bahrain, and
France has one at Abu Dhabi.
Devers la Perse bien près d'un million = Iran's military can deploy over a million fighters.
Bisance = Byzantium = Constantinople = Istanbul Turkey.
Egypte = Egypt, implying that the Arabian Peninsula had already been invaded.
Ver. serp. are abbreviations that Lioni and Cheetham interpreted as vera serpens
(true serpent) and Lemesurier interpreted as versat serpens (coiled serpent).
Invadera = shall invade à la Daniel 8:4.

5:27
Par feu & armes non loing de la marnegro,
Viendra de Perse occuper Trebizonde :
Trembler Pharos Methelin, Sol alegro,
De sang Arabe d'Adrie couverte l'onde.
Richard Sieburth 2012
By fire & arms not far from Mar Negro,
The Persians shall occupy Trebizond :
Pharos, Mytilene quake, Sol allegro :
The Adriatic swims with Arab blood.

Marnegro = Mar Negro = Black Sea.
Trebizonde = Trabzon on the Black Sea coast of Turkiye.

Pharos was an island forming part of the harbor of Alexandria, Egypt. It was later
connected to the mainland by a wide artificial land bridge, so that it no longer
exists as an island. In both 5:16 and 5:27 Pharos was in 2003 translated by
Lemesurier as Paros, an island in the Cyclades. Paros is near the Rodes (Rhodes)
of 5:16 and the Methelin (Lesbos) of 5:27. The map below shows the locations of
Cyclades (within which is Paros), Lesbos (whose chief city is Mytilene) to the NNE,
and Rhodes to the ESE.

Paros is in the middle of the Cyclades.

According to Leoni, alegro is derived from either the Old French alegre (joyful)
or the Italian allegro (brisk). Since in 5:53 Nostradamus used Sol to designate
Christians, and since Sieburth translated alegro as allegro (moving quickly),
Sol alegro could mean Christians moving quickly. This quatrain does not
predict anything that Christians would be joyful to see happen. The Adriatic
swims with Arab blood may indicate the destruction of an Arab navy. If Iran
forms alliances with the Arab nations of the Barbary Coast à la 1:9 1:73 6:80,
their navies would not be attacked. The Arab Republic of Egypt has a navy.

5:55
De la felice Arabie contrade,

Richard Smoley 2006
From the country of Arabia Felix
Will be born a strong one of Mohammedan law,
To vex Spain, conquer Grenada,
And farther by sea to the Ligurian people.

Felice Arabie = Arabia Felix = Yemen.

The Houthis of Yemen are armed and supported by Iran's IRGC.

5:86
Par les deux testes, & trois bras separés,
La cité grande par eaux sera vexée :
Des grands d'entre eux par exil esgarés,
Par teste Perse Bisance fort pressée.
John Hogue 1997
Separated by two heads, and three arms,
The great city will be vexed by waters.
The great ones among them led astray in exile,
Byzantium hard pressed by the leader of Persia.

Three suspension bridges for vehicle traffic span the Bosphorus strait
separating the European and Asian portions of Istanbul Turkiye.

The city Byzantium was founded by Greeks in 657 BC. In AD 330, the Roman
emperor Constantine made Byzantium the capital of the Eastern Roman
Empire, renaming it Constantinople. In 1453, Turkish forces conquered
Constantinople and made it the capital of the Ottoman Empire. At the end
of the Ottoman Empire in 1923, the newly formed Republic of Turkiye moved
its capital to Ankara. In 1930, Constantinople was renamed Istanbul.

6:44
De nuict par Nantes Lyris apparoistra,
Des artz marins susciteront la pluye :

Peter Lemesurier 2010
By night the rainbow shall appear near Nantes:
naval technologies shall stir up rain.
In the Gulf of Arabia a great fleet shall sink:
in Saxony a monster shall be born of a bear and a sow.

Nantes references and map
Not until the 1960s did some Arab countries began referring to the Persian Gulf as
the Arabian Gulf. So the mention of an Arabian Gulf was in itself prophetic. The
US Navy's Fifth Fleet is headquatered at Bahrain in the Arabian/Persian Gulf.

6:80
De Fez le regne parviendra à ceux d'Europe.
Feu leur cité, & lame trenchera :
Le grand d'Asie terre & mer à grand troupe.
Que bleux pers, croix, à mort dechassera.
John Hogue 1997 [bracketed insert his]
From Fez the kingdom will reach out to those of Europe,
Their city blazes, the sword will slash:
The great man of Asia by land and sea with a great troop,
So that blues, Pers[ians], the cross, will be driven out to death.

Fez, also mentioned in 6:54, is the 2nd largest city in Morocco.
The kingdom = the Kingdom of Morocco.
Will reach out to those of Europe = Morocco is in the European Neighbourhood Policy.
Their city blazes = the capital of Morocco is the Atlantic port city Rabat.
The sword will slash = an attack.
The great man of Asia = Iran is in western Asia.
By land and sea with a great troop = an invasion.
Bleux pers = IRGC flags are Persian blue.

The cross will be driven out to death = Morocco's population is 99% Muslim; but along
its Mediterranean coast are Spanish exclaves and islands where Christians live.

Morocco ended relations with Iran in 2018, when it was discovered that Iran was
arming the Polisario Front through its Lebanese proxy Hezbollah and the Iranian
embassy in Algeria. The Polisario Front opposes Morocco's annexation of Western
Sahara. On 2020-12-10, the USA announced that it would recognize full Moroccan
sovereignty over Western Sahara in exchange for Morocco normalizing relations
with Israel, which was agreed to and signed on 2020-12-22.

Iran's leadership cannot be happy about recent Morocco-Israel military and
intelligence cooperation. When the President of Algeria sputters out "We will
retaliate against anyone who dares to attack us, an eye for an eye and a tooth
for a tooth" against Morocco, you know that tensions are running high.
Morocco's friendliness with America and Israel has a long and complicated
history. On December 17, 1777, France formally recognized the USA as an
independent country. Three days later, Morocco became the first Islamic
country to do so. Mohammed ben Abdallah, the Sultan of Morocco at the
time, was advised on foreign relations by a Jewish man, Samuel Sumbal.
Prior to the 1967 Six Day War, Morocco tipped off Israel on what the Islamic
community that Morocco is a part of was planning to do to Israel. See the
2023-03-07 article Iranian drones in North Africa, a cause for concern for
Morocco and the whole region.

12:36 (Leoni 1961 text)
Assaut farouche en Cypre se prépare,

Hogue 1997
A ferocious assault is being prepared in Cyprus,
Tear in my eye, for your approaching ruin:
Byzantine fleet, very great Moorish loss,
Two different ones, the great devastation by the rock.

Prepared in Cyprus = planned in the Iranian embassy in Nicosia Cyprus.
Approachng ruin = "And if a house be divided against itself, that house
cannot stand" (Mark 3:25). Cyprus has Greek, Turkish, British, and UN
areas. Since 2019, Iran has been leasing part of the port of Latakia on
Syria's Mediterranean coast for civilian and military use. Some IRGC
speedboats can attain a speed of 95 knots (109 mph), some even faster.

By the rock = the United Kingdom's Royal Air Force Akrotiri military
base in Cyprus is situated between Petra Tou Romiou and Limassol.

Cyprus references and map

Bible prophecies pertaining to the role of Iran during the second signpost set
of events indicate invasions of Islamic countries. Nostradamus prophecies
concerning the role of Iran extend such invasions directly or by proxy into
the Mediterranean Sea and parts of southern Europe. Recent Christian
prophecies concerning Iran indicate that its leadership will suffer significant
setbacks and humiliations prior to the second signpost invasions. The
Iranian regime has been focused on destroying the State of Israel, which it
cannot be successful at. When it finally realizes that the only purpose it can
fulfill is directing the invasion of Islamic countries (and some southern
European countries if Nostradamus was right), it will then successfully
accomplish all valid prophecies pertaining to the second signpost.

third signpost: black horse

Revelation 6:5-6 NIV
When the Lamb opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature
say, "Come!" I looked, and there before me was a black horse! Its rider
was holding a pair of scales in his hand. Then I heard what sounded like
a voice among the four living creatures, saying, "Two pounds of wheat
for a day’s wages, and six pounds of barley for a day’s wages, and do
not damage the oil and the wine!"
Wine is a mocker (Proverbs 20:1). World wine production mocks Islamic advice against
wine-drinking. Eight Islamic countries having a Mediterranean coast produce wines:
Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Egypt, Lebanon, Syria, Turkiye, Albania.

This means that "hurt not the oil and the wine" (Revelation 6:6) can apply to Islamic
countries. Daniel Revisited applies Revelation 6:5-6 to a four-nation Sunni confederacy
(Daniel 7:6), all four of which produce wine. Of that four, Turkiye produces the most.
Daniel 7:6
After this I beheld, and lo another, like a leopard, which had upon the
back of it four wings of a fowl; the beast had also four heads; and
dominion was given to it.
Within Sunni Islam are four acceptable schools of jurisprudence. The Ottoman
Empire promoted the Hanafi school, still prevalent in Turkiye, Albania, Egypt,
Syria, which may become the four-headed leopard.
Daniel 8:5-8a,21
And as I was considering, behold, an he goat came from the west on the
face of the whole earth, and touched not the ground: and the goat had a
notable horn between his eyes. And he came to the ram that had two
horns, which I had seen standing before the river, and ran unto him in
the fury of his power. And I saw him come close unto the ram, and he
was moved with choler against him, and smote the ram, and brake his
two horns: and there was no power in the ram to stand before him, but
he cast him down to the ground, and stamped upon him: and there was
none that could deliver the ram out of his hand. Therefore the he goat
waxed very great... And the rough goat is the king of Grecia [Javan]:
and the great horn that is between his eyes is the first king.

The destruction of Iran's leadership is the beginning of the third signpost.

Jeremiah 49:34-39 (notice the convergent chiasmus)

A - The word of the LORD that came to Jeremiah the prophet against Elam in the
beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, saying,

__B - Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Behold, I will break the bow of Elam [IRGC], the
__chief of their might [Supreme Leader].

____C - And upon Elam will I bring the four winds from the four quarters of heaven, and
____will scatter them toward all those winds; and there shall be no nation whither the
____outcasts of Elam shall not come. For I will cause Elam to be dismayed before their
____enemies, and before them that seek their life: and I will bring evil upon them, even
____my fierce anger, saith the LORD; and I will send the sword after them, till I have
____consumed them. [Panel C has already been fulfilled. The founding of the Islamic
____Republic of Iran in 1979 resulted in an Iranian diaspora.]

__B' - And I will set my throne in Elam, and will destroy from thence the king [Supreme
__Leader] and the princes [IRGC], saith the LORD.

A' - But it shall come to pass in the latter days, that I will bring again the captivity
of Elam, saith the LORD.

2:49
Les conseilliers du premier monopole,
Les conquerants seduits pour la Melite,
Rodes, Bisance pour leurs exposant pole,
Terre faudra les poursuivants de fuite.
Richard Sieburth 2012
The counselors of the oldest of leagues
With nothing but Malta now on their mind,
Leaving Rhodes & Byzantium behind,
Shall lose their land, pursued by enemies.

The oldest of leagues may refer to the long history of the peoples who
became Iran. In 1971, the Shah of Iran led the celebration of 2,500 years
since the founding of the first Persian empire by Cyrus the Great.
Melite = Malta. "And when they were escaped, then they knew that the
island was called Melita" (Acts 28:1).

2:60
La foy Punicque en Orient rompue,
Gand. Ind. & Rosne, Loyre & Tag changeront :
Quand du mulet la faim sera repue,

Richard Sieburth 2012
The Punic pact now broken in the East,
Ganges, Indus, Rhône, Loire, Tagus shall change :
When the mule has no more desire to eat,
Fleet dispersed, blood & bodies on the waves.

Compare "the Punic pact now broken in the East" with 1:9. Punic refers
to the Phoenician empire of Carthage. As used by Nostradamus, it refers to
the Barbary Coast of North Africa.
"Gand." in the 1555 edition reads "Gang." referring to Ganges (4:51), a
town at the confluence of the Hérault and Rieutord rivers in France.
"Ind." in most editions reads "Iud." referring to the Judean Jordan river;
but if "Ind." was intended, it refers to the Indre river in France, not the
Indus river in Asia.
Rosne = Rhône river in France.
Loyre = Loire river in France.
Tag = Tagus river flowing through Spain and Portugal.

6:20
L'union faincte sera peu de durée,

Erika Cheetham 1989
The feigned union will last a short time,
some changed, the greater part reformed.
People will be suffering in the vessels
when Rome has a new Leopard.
Richard Sieburth 2012
The sham alliance shall not long endure,
Some are transformed but the most are reformed :
The ships filled with troops hard-bitten & dour,
And a new leopard ruling over Rome.

Sham alliance = 1:9 1:73 6:80.
Daniel 7:6
After this I beheld, and lo another, like a leopard, which had upon the back of it
four wings of a fowl; the beast had also four heads; and dominion was given to it.

6:55
Au chalmé Duc, en arrachant l'esponce,
Voile Arabesque voir, subit descouverte :
Tripolis, Chio, & ceux de Trapesonce,
Duc prins, Marnegro & sa cité deserte.
Richard Sieburth 2012
Diving for sponges in the noonday sun,
The Duke suddenly sees the Arab fleet :
Tripolis, Chios, those of Trebizond :
His city emptied, Duke seized by Black Sea.

The Arab fleet may be Egyptian, Syrian, or both.
Tripolis was an earlier name of what is now Tirebolu.
Tirebolu and Trabzon are on Turkiye's Black Sea coast.

Chios is a Greek island off the west coast of Turkiye.

6:99
L'ennemy docte se tournera confus,
Grand camp malade, & defaict par embusches,
Monts Pyrenées & Pœnus luy seront faicts refus,
Proche du fleuve discouvrant antiques oruches.
Peter Lemesurier 2010
The skilled enemy shall turn about, confused,
his great army sick, and defeated by ambushes:
the Pyrenees and Pennine Alps shall be denied him,
while near the river discovering ancient amphorae.

Compare with 9:73.
Pyrenees mountains references and map
Amphorae = Greek or Roman jars with two handles and narrow necks.

Paunteur grande sortira de Lausanne,
Qu’on ne saura l’origine du fait,
Lon mettra hors toute la gent loingtaine
Feu veu au ciel, peuple estranger deffait.
Peter Lemesurier 2010
A mighty stench shall come out of Lausanne
such that nobody shall know its origin.
They shall expel all the aliens:
fire seen in the sky, the foreign race defeated.

No specific place for fulfillment is indicated. The 1923 Treaty of
Lausanne defined land and water boundaries between Greece (the
Hellenic Republic) and the Republic of Turkiye. It left most of the
Aegean Sea islands near the coast of Turkiye under Greek ownership.
When Israel began tapping into natural gas deposits under the
Mediterranean Sea, Turkiye started complaining about the terms of
the Lausanne treaty and began redefining what should be allowed.
During SP2 Iran will gain some control over the Aegean Sea. But
when SP3 begins Greek forces may join Turkish forces in expelling
Iranian forces from the Aegean Sea. "Aliens" and "foreign race"
would not apply to Greeks living on Greek islands, but to invaders
of them. On 2020-06-19, Greek General Konstantinos Floros, the
head of the Hellenic National Defence General Staff, said, "Whoever
attacks Greek territory, we will first burn them and then see who
it was."

9:73
Dans Fois entrez Roy ceiulee Turban,
Et regnera moins revolu Saturne
Roy Turban blanc Bizance cœur ban
Sol Mars, Mercure pres la hurne.
Richard Sieburth 2012
Into Foix shall enter the blue-turbaned King
And reign less than one of Saturn's turns :
White-turbaned king Byzance heart shall convince,
Sun, Mars & Mercury within the Urn.

Compare with 2:2 6:99.
Saturn turns on its axis once every 10 hours and 34 minutes, giving it the
second-shortest day of any of the solar system’s planets. Saturn orbits the
Sun once every 29.4 years. Sieburth's translation could be taken as focused
on the short rotation, even though his note on this quatrain puts one of
Saturn's turns at twenty-nine years and 167 days. Nostradamus would
have known about the long orbit, not about the short rotation. Any foreign
military occupation of Foix would probably be too brief to compare with
Saturn's long orbit. Translators have struggled to make sense out of line 3.
What would faraway Istanbul have to do with anything happening in Foix
France? According to the Book of Daniel, a "great" Shia Iranian empire
(Daniel 8:4) will be replaced by a "very great" Sunni Turkiye-led empire
(Daniel 8:8). Foix may be a place to which some Iranian military flee after
the fall of the Iranian empire. Foix is near the Pyrenees mountains dividing
France from Spain. Foix is also mentioned in 3:25 5:100 8:12 8:39 9:10 9:63.

Par vie & mort changé regne d'Ongrie,
La loy sera plus aspre que service :

John Hogue 1997
Through life and death the rule of Hungary changed.
The law will be more harsh than servitude:
Their great city calls out with howls and laments,
Castor and Pollux enemies in the arena.

The twins Castor and Pollux, also mentioned in 2:15, were characters in
Greek and Roman mythology associated with the constellation Gemini,
and with the eerie glow of St. Elmo's fire on ship spars. The ship that
the apostle Paul departed Malta in had Castor and Pollux as its
figurehead (Acts 28:11). Sieburth noted: "The Ottomans under
Süleyman the Magnificent captured the twin cities of Buda and Pest in
1526, killing King Louis II of Hungary; the kingdom was then disputed
between John Zápolya and Ferdinand of Hapsburg."

3:20

At what is called the marketplace of lies,
By the river of Athens & its plain :
By Albanian light horse they'll be surprised,
Mars, Leo, Saturn in Aquarius.

Lemesurier commented: "The reference in the first line is an expression used
by both Hippocrates and Galen to describe the 'swindlers' market' of Athens;
the 'torrent' is the river Cephissus, which flows across the plain of Attica."

fourth signpost: green horse

Revelation 6:8 Tyndale Bible of 1526
And I loked and beholde a grene horsse and his name that sat on
him was deeth and hell folowed after him and power was geven
vnto them over the fourthe parte of the erth to kyll with swearde
and with honger and with deeth that cometh of vermen of the erth.
The Greek word transliterated "chloros" (Strong's 5515) is almost always
translated "green." The exception is in Revelation 6:8, where almost all
translations render it "pale," "pale green," "ashen," etc. Of the many Bible
translations available on Bible Hub, only the 1526 Tyndale translation has it
correct, albeit in archaic spelling.

2021-06-22 prophecy through Amanda Grace
And the Spirit of the Lord says this day, Watch the EPA and those who profess
a coiling deception of global warming and green new deals, for there are
untruths and heavy prices to pay woven into such delicacies that are tempting
the minds of those desperate in your nation to give in to a wayward way of
thinking that is not of ME, says the Lord of Hosts. For I created the earth, the
earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof, and therefore I know, down to the
molecular level, down to the chemical makeups far beyond the periodic table,
what the earth and its inward parts are doing, says the Lord. For the periodic
table is changing, and blackness, darkness, Marxism woven into a deal that is
in no way green as those would have you see. Remember the green horse and
its rider, says the Lord. There is a connection.

Daniel 7:7-8,23
After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast,
dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great
iron teeth; it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the
residue with the feet of it; and it was diverse from all the beasts
that were before it; and it had ten horns. I considered the horns,
and behold, there came up among them another little horn,
before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by
the roots; and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of
man, and a mouth speaking great things ... the fourth beast shall
be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from
all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread
it down, and break it in pieces.

Daniel 8:8b-9
... and when he was strong, the great horn was broken; and for it
came up four notable ones toward the four winds of heaven. And
out of one of them came forth a little horn, which waxed
exceeding great toward the south, and toward the east, and
toward the pleasant land.

On 2022-12-10 Albania Daily News and Greek City Times quoted Erdogan of
Turkiye saying that if he is reelected President of Turkiye in 2023, it will be his
final term in office. In Turkiye a presidential term is for five years. If Erdogan
is reelected in 2023, his final term of office would end in 2028. But if Erdogan is
the notable horn of Daniel 8:5, his time in office could be cut short (Daniel 8:8).
But if Isaiah 16:14 indicates that the second signpost will last three years, the
third signpost must also be short-lived if the fourth signpost is to begin as early
as 2028. But a second signpost invasion into parts of Turkiye could alter
Erdogan's plans to retire in 2028. These speculations are meant to suggest that
the lengthy period of time between first and second signposts will not be
repeated between second, third, and fourth signposts. The Antichrist is probably
already planning his path to power over most of the Islamic world and beyond.

Breakup of the four-nation Sunni confederacy (Daniel 7:6,
Daniel 8:8b) is the beginning of the fourth signpost.

would suggest a northbound attack through the Adriatic Sea.

Revelation 6:9-11
And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of
them that were slain for the word of God and for the testimony which they
held; And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and
true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the
earth? And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said
unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellow
servants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should
be fulfilled.

Daniel 7:25
And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out
the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they
shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.

Daniel 8:23-25
And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors are come to
the full, a king of fierce countenance, and understanding dark sentences,
shall stand up. And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power:
and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practise, and shall
destroy the mighty and the holy people. And through his policy also he
shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in
his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against
the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand.

We expect a century quite sinister:
The state of masks and solitaries shall be changed;
Few will find they want to be in their rank.
Richard Sieburth 2012 from critical reading
Before too long all things shall be ordained :
We sense a sinister age on its way :
The state of marks & seals shall be most changed :
Few to be found content with their stations.

No specific place for fulfillment is indicated.
"Marques" (marks) may have been intended instead of the printed reading
"masques" (masks).
Revelation 13:16-17
And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to
receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads, and that no man
might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or
the number of his name.

2:30 critical reading
Un qui les dieux d'Annibal infernaulx,
Fera renaistre, effrayeur des humains :
Oncq'plus d'horreur ne plus pires fourneaux
Qu'avint viendra par Babel aux Romains.
Peter Lemesurier 2010 from printed reading [bracketed inserts his]
One who the infernal gods of Hannibal
shall cause to be reborn, [shall become] the terror of mankind:
never more horrors nor worse reports
than ever occurred shall come to the Romans through Babel [Mesopotamia].
Richard Sieburth 2012 from critical reading
The one whom Hannibal's infernal gods
Shall cause to be reborn, a bane to man :
Furnaces worse than ever burned this hot
Babylon shall inflict on the Romans.

"Fourneaux" (furnaces) may have been intended instead of the printed reading
"journaux" (journals).
Hannibal was a Carthaginian general during the Second Punic War against
Rome (218–201 BC). Although he led an invasion into the Italian Peninsula, he
never burned the city of Rome.

No single inhabitant shall remain :
Its walls & women, churches & nuns raped,

Leur regne plus Saturne n'occupera,

Edgar Leoni 1961
The sea will not be passed over safely by those of the Sun,
Those of Venus will hold all Africa:

Saturne = Saturday = Jews.

And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived
deliciously with her, shall bewail her, and lament for her, when they

her torment, saying, Alas, alas, that great city Babylon, that mighty
city! for in one hour is thy judgment come.

The real flame shall consume the lady
who shall want to put the innocents in the fire:
before the assault the army is inflamed
when in Seville a monstrous bull shall be seen.

The blood of innocents, of widow and virgin.
So much evil done by means of the great Red.
Holy images soaked in burning wax.
From terror, fear, he will see none who budges.

Great Mendosus shall acquire full control :
Far from court, he'll issue countermands,

Le rouge blaisme, le masle à l'interregne,
Le jeune crainte & frayeur Barbaris.
Erika Cheetham 1989
Mendosus will soon come to his great reign,
somewhat putting aside the Norlaris.
The pale red one, the one in the interregnum,
the frightened young man and the fear of the Barbaric ones.
Richard Sieburth 2012
Mandosus taking power on a grand scale
Shall grab a goodly part of Norlaris :
The pale red one, the interregnum's male,
So young, so fearful of the Barbaries.

Richard Sieburth 2012
Long awaited, he shall never come again
To Europe, but in Asia shall appear,
One who from mighty Hermes does descend,
Of all the eastern kings the most revered.

Hermes = imagined god whose title was Lord of Robbers.
Of all the eastern kings the most revered = the Mahdi.

ekklesia triumphant

Ekklesia is a Greek word meaning "an assembly of the people convened at the
public place of council for the purpose of deliberating" (Joseph H. Thayer).
"Then they that feared the LORD spake often one to another: and the LORD
hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him
for them that feared the LORD, and that thought upon his name. And they shall
be mine, saith the LORD of hosts, in that day when I make up my jewels; and
I will spare them, as a man spareth his own son that serveth him. Then shall
ye return, and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him that
serveth God and him that serveth him not" (Malachi 3:16-18).

Daniel 7:27 NIV
Then the sovereignty, power and greatness of all the kingdoms under heaven
will be handed over to the holy people of the Most High. His kingdom will be
an everlasting kingdom, and all rulers will worship and obey him.

The Book of Mormon RLDS 1 Nephi 3:230-231 LDS 1 Nephi 14:14
And it came to pass that I, Nephi, beheld the power of the Lamb of God,
that it descended upon the saints of the church of the Lamb, and upon the
covenant people of the Lord, who were scattered upon all the face of the
earth; and they were armed with righteousness and with the power of God
in great glory.

from a 2022-09-15 prophecy through Julie Green
The floodgates of truth have opened, and the world is shifting to the way it
should have been all along. My churches will be in charge of the world, not
the pharaohs of today — no more time for that. The great harvests of souls
and the time of the harvest is now, saith the Lord your Redeemer.

2:8
Temples sacrés prime façon Romaine,
Rejecteront les goffes fondements,
Prenant leurs loix premieres & humaines,
Chassant, non tout des sainctz les cultements.
Richard Sieburth 2012
The temples, like the early church of Rome,
Shall reject all uncouth foundations,
Making the first & humane laws their own,
Banning most if not all the cults of saints.

No specific place for fulfillment is indicated.

3:99
Aux champs herbeux d'Alein & du Varneigue,
Du mont Lebron proche se la Durance,
Camps se deux parts conflict sera si aigue,
Mesopotame defaillira en la France.
Richard Sieburth 2012
In the green fields of Alleins & Vernègues,

4:5
Croix, paix, soubz un accomply divin verbe,
L'Espaigne & Gaule seront unis ensemble :
Grand clade proche, & combat très acerbe,
Cœur si hardy ne sera qui ne tremble.
Richard Sieburth 2012
Cross in peace under perfect word divine,
Spain & Gaul then together shall unite :
Disaster nigh & conflict most unkind,
No heart so bold as not to quake with fright.

4:39
Les Rodiens demanderont secours,
Par le neglet de ses hoyrs delaissée :
L'empire Arabe revalera son cours,
Par Hesperies la cause redressée.
Richard Sieburth 2012
The men of Rhodes shall cry out for more aid,
Their isle disowned by its neglectful lords :
The Arab empire shall lessen its pace,
The common cause given new hope by Spain.

Although the first Islamic empire was established by Arabs, by the time of
Nostradamus the Turkish Ottoman Empire had become dominant. The
Antichrist will rule over all lands controlled by all previous Islamic
empires and some lands beyond those. But as the outer countries rebel
against and break free from his power, the loyal core of his domain will be
reduced to the Arab world.

5:13

Qu'il deviendra en si haute puissance :
Hors chassera gent estrange Arabique,
Tournant l'Eglise en pristine preeminence.
Richard Sieburth 2012
Of Trojan blood shall be born a German great

In later printings, line 3 ends with "tremble."

Easterners, & such a great noise & tumult of war shall they make that all

the North.

But tidings out of the east and out of the north shall trouble him: therefore
he shall go forth with much fury to destroy, and utterly to make away many.

Secours par mer du grand Portugalois,
Premier d'esté le jour du sacre Urban.
Peter Lemesurier 2003
Tarsus' great city shall by Frenchmen be
Destroyed, all those in turbans led away —
Helped by the mighty Portuguese at sea —
When summer starts, on good Saint Urban's day.

The feast day of St. Urban is 2 April, or 23 January in Langres, France.

7:36
Dieu, le ciel, tout le divin verbe à l'unde,
Pourté par rouges sept razes à Bizance :
Contre les oingz trois cens de Trebisconde,
Deux loix mettront, & horreur, puis credence.

Richard Sieburth 2012
Cydonia, Ragusa, the city of St. Jerome,
Shall flourish again by salutary force :
King's son dead by the deaths of two heroes :

Raguse = Ragusa = Dubrovnik in Croatia.

From 1309 to 1376, the Roman Catholic church had its headquarters at Avignon
France. The Avignon papacy was also known as the Babylonian Captivity. After
the papacy returned to Rome, Avignon remained a papal possession until 1791.

In a 2020-08-26 speech, Turkish President Erdogan referred to Greece (officially
the Hellenic Republic) as being "unworthy of the Byzantine legacy." According
to The Great Sea by David Abulafia, Mehmet II, who in 1453 conquered the
Byzantine capital of Constantinople, "resolved the dispute between those
relatively cautious advisors who opposed rapid expansion for fear of
over-extension, and the more adventurous faction that saw Mehmet as the
leader of a revitalized Roman Empire controlled by Muslim Turks who would
combine Roman-Byzantine, Turkic and Islamic concepts of rule. His aim was
to restore and fulfill, rather than destroy, the Roman Empire. His Greek
scribes issued documents describing him as Mehmet, Basileus and Autocrat of
the Romans, the title by which the Byzantine emperors had been known"
(page 385). To say that Greece is unworthy of the Byzantine legacy is to imply
that legacy is worthy of restoration.

Table 12: Cyprus
Sieburth Hogue textSieburth Hogue translation
3:89CypresCyprusSP401
5:17CipresCyprus02
6:53CipresCyprus03
12:36CypreCyprusSP204
The Greek New Testament name Kupros is translated into English by the Latin name
Cyprus. That island was the main source of elemental copper (cuprum in the periodic
table) for the historical bronze Hellenic empires of Greece and Rome. Cyprus has two
mountain ranges, a large one in the Greek area (where elemental copper and copper
minerals were mined), and a narrow one along the northern edge of the Turkish area,
with the capital Nicosia poised between.

The land features of Cyprus may have been alluded to in Zechariah 6:1, which was
written prior to the rise of the historical Greek and Roman empires. In the KJV this
reads: "And I turned, and lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and, behold, there came
four chariots out from between two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of
brass." The Hebrew word translated "brass" is Strong's 5178 "nechosheth" meaning
copper or anything made from copper or copper alloy. But in this case, with land
features mentioned, it could allude to the island that had been a source of copper
long before Zechariah 6:1 was written. Although Zechariah did not mention Kittim,
a Hebrew name for Cyprus, the directions that the four chariots of Zechariah 6:5-6
went suggest a central physical location to move out from. The Jewish Study Bible
at Zechariah 6:5-6 reads [my comments in brackets]: "Those [the four chariots of
horses] are the four winds of heaven coming out after presenting themselves to the
Lord of all the earth. The one with the black horses is going out to the region of the
north [Turkiye]; the white ones have gone out to what is west from them [Albania];
the spotted ones have gone to the region of the south [Egypt]; and the dappled ones
have gone out..." To this a note is added: "Emendation yields 'the bay ones will go
out to the region of the east [Syria].'" For his translation of this passage, Robert
Alter commented: "The received text has ha'amutsim, 'the spotted ones,' but this is
a synonym for 'the dappled ones,' who have already been accounted for, and the red
horses seem to have disappeared. The translation therefore reads ha'adumim, 'the
red ones.'" Turkiye, Albania, Egypt, and Syria were all parts of the historical bronze
Hellenic empires of Greece and Rome. Their modern Islamic manifestations are
poised north, west, south, and east of Cyprus, the copper island with its capital
poised between two mountain ranges. Turkiye, Albania, Egypt, and Syria may be the
four countries prophesied of in Daniel 7:6, which in the KJV reads: "After this I
beheld, and lo another, like a leopard, which had upon the back of it four wings of
a fowl; the beast had also four heads; and dominion was given to it."

Pannonia was a region of the Roman Empire that included parts of modern
Hungary, Slovakia, Austria, Serbia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and
Slovenia. In the 15th and 16th centuries much of the region was conquered
by the Islamic Ottoman Empire. But by 1853, former British Prime Minister
John Russell was calling the Ottoman Empire "the sick man of Europe."
During the Crimean War (1853-1856), Britain sided with a weakened
Ottoman Empire against Russia. In 1867, the Austria-Hungary Empire was
formed, which in 1878, took over Bosnia and Herzegovina, but allowed them
to remain parts of the Ottoman Empire until annexing them in 1908. The
Austria-Hungary Empire became an expanded version of Pannonia until its
collapse in 1918. The quatrains concerning Pannonia portray resisted
attempts to reconquer the region for Islam during the 3rd and 4th signposts.

According to The Great Sea (2011) by David Abulafia (pages 123-4, 134), about
600 BC about 600 Phokaians from Ionia in western Asia Minor sailed westward
to establish Massalia in Gaul (now Marseille in France); the Phokaians
remaining in Ionia did not leave until the mid-6th century BC when the Persian
forces of Cyrus were invading western Asia Minor, when an en masse exodus
of Phokaians left in five ships (one of which was seized by Phoenician pirates);
after stops at Chios and Corsica, they joined the Phokaians at Massalia.

Punic refers to the North African domain of Phoenician Carthaginians, later
occupied by Romans, Christian Byzantines, Islamic Arabs and Berbers. The Barbary
States that Nostradamus wrote about are now Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, and Libya.

geographic visions

In The Unknown Nostradamus (2003), Peter Lemesurier translated portions
of Nostradamus's 1552 preface to his 1555 book Traité des fardemens et
confitures (Treatise on cosmetics and conserves), in which Nostradamus
mentioned his 1521 to 1529 "study of natural remedies across various lands
and countries." During those years, he "wandered through many countries."
Three decades later, Nostradamus was writing prophecies that are loaded
with references to geographical places. It would be interesting to know which
places he had memories of and which he learned about only from books and
maps. After his eight years of wandering, he settled down in Agen, now in the
Lot-et-Garonne department of France. Agen is near places mentioned in
quatrain 8:2, which prophesied concerning what he saw in a vision.
Similarities both conceptually and geographically between 1:46 and 8:2
suggest that sometimes Nostradamus could not cram the reporting of what
he saw in a vision into a single quatrain.

1:46
Tout auprés d'Aux, de Lectore & Mirande,
Grand feu du ciel en trois nuictz tumbera :
Cause adviendra bien stupende & mirande,
Bien peu après la terre tremblera.
Peter Lemesurier 2010
Very near Auch, Lectoure and Mirande
great fire for three nights shall fall from the sky.
A very stupendous and marvellous thing shall occur.
Not long afterward the earth shall quake.

8:2
Condon & Aux & autour de Mirande
Je voy du ciel feu qui les environne.
Sol Mars conjoint au Lyon puis marmande
Fouldre, grand gresle, mur tombe dans Garonne.
Richard Sieburth 2012
Condom & Auch & all around Mirande,
I see the sky-fire that's surrounding them :
Sun, Mars in Leo, & then at Marmande
Hail, lightning : wall falling into Garonne.

Marmande is on the Garonne river in the Lot-et-Garonne department. The
Garonne river, which flows from the Pyrenees of N Spain through SW France,
is mentioned in 2:25 2:33 3:12 3:43 6:1 6:79 8:2 8:35 9:37 12:65.

Immediately south of the Lot-et-Garonne department shown above is the Gers department shown below.

Auch, Condom, Lectoure, and Mirande are all in the Gers department shown above.
Auch is mentioned in 1:46 1:79 5:100 8:2.
Condom is mentioned in 1:79 4:72 5:97 8:2
Lectoure is mentioned in 1:46 1:79 4:72 7:12 8:43.
Mirande is mentioned in 1:46 8:2.

fall of the American deep state

The scope of Nostradamus prophecies is "the regions, countries, & most
of the towns & cities of all Europe, including Africa & a portion of Asia"
(Epistle to Henry II, Sieburth's 2012 translation). It was unusual for
Nostradamus in the 1550s to prophesy about a continent discovered in
1492. Only in quatrain 10:66 did he mention "regne l'Americh" (the
American realm). But since one of the primary goals of globalists is to
destroy American power, a few quatrains concerning the fall of global
wickedness are having American fulfillments.

2:53
La grande peste de cité maritime
Ne cessera que mort ne soit vengée
Du juste sang par pris damné sans crime :
De la grand dame par feincte n'outraigée.
Richard Sieburth 2012 translation
The mighty plague in the city by the sea
Shall not end until the death is avenged
Of innocent blood unjustly condemned :
The great dame outraged by the knavery.

2:80
Après conflict du lesé l'eloquence
Par peu de temps se trame faint repos :
Point l'on admet les grands à delivrance :
Les ennemis sont remis à propos.
Richard Sieburth 2012 translation
After battle, the losers' eloquence
Weaves a brief moment of pretended truce :
The ransoming of nobles is refused :
Foes to be dealt with according to rules.

5:37
Trois cents seront d'un vouloir & accord,
Que pour venir au bout de leur attaincte :
Vingts mois après tous & records,
Leur Roy trahi simulant haine faincte.
Richard Sieburth 2012 translation
Three hundred shall be of one mind & will
To achieve the object of their long wait :
Twenty months later they shall all recall
Betraying their king while hiding their hate.

5:79
Par sacrée pompe viendra baisser les aisles,
Par la venue du grand legislateur :
Humble haulsera, vexera les rebelles,
Naistra sur terre aucun æmulateur.
Richard Smoley 2006 translation
Sacred pomp will come to lower its wings
By the strength of the great legislator.
He will raise the humble, vex the rebellious,
His equal shall never be born on earth.

6:96
Grande cité à soldartz abandonnée,
Onques ny eust mortel tumult si proche :
O quelle hideuse calamité s'approche,
Fors une offense n'y sera pardonnée.
Richard Sieburth 2012 translation
The great city to soldiers is abandoned,
Never was deadly tumult so close by :
Oh, what hideous disaster comes nigh,
Not a single offense shall be pardoned.

8:20
Le faux messaige par election fainte
Courir par urben, rompue pache arreste,
Voix acheptees, de sang chapelle tainte,
Et à un autre l'empire contraicte.
Richard Sieburth 2012 translation
The election fixed, false rumors shall flood
The city: snapped, the pact no longer stands :
Votes bought, the holy chapel stained with blood,
The empire transferred to another's hands.

9:47
Les soulz signes d'indigne delivrance,
Et de la multe auront contre advis,
Change monarque mis en perille pence,
Serrez en caige se verront vis à vis.
Edgar Leoni 1961 translation [with his footnote]
The undersigned to an infamous deliverance,
And having contrary advice from the multitude:
Monarch changes put in danger over *thought,
Shut up in a cage they will see each other face to face.
______________________________* Or possibly "over pennies."

10:01
A L'ennemy l'ennemy foy promise
Ne se tiendra, les captifs retenus :
Prins preme mort & le reste en chemise,
Damné le reste pour estre soustenus.
Richard Sieburth 2012 translation
The promise made enemy to enemy
Shall not hold, the prisoners not exchanged :
One captive near death, the rest in chemise,
All the others damned for being sustained.

Isaiah 24:21-22
And it shall come to pass in that day, that the LORD shall punish the host of the high ones
that are on high, and the kings of the earth upon the earth. And they shall be gathered
together, as prisoners are gathered in the pit, and shall be shut up in the prison, and after
many days shall they be visited.

10:65
O vaste Romme ta ruyne s'approche,
Non de tes murs de ton sang & sustance :
L'aspre par lettres fera si horrible coche,
Fer poinctu mis à tous jusques au manche.
Richard Sieburth 2012 translation
O mighty Rome, your ruin does approach,
Not your walls, but your blood & living parts :
The rough-lettered one shall make such a notch,
His sharp sword driving deep into your heart.

10:76
Le grand senat discernera la pompe,
A l'un qu'apres sera vaincu chassé,
Ses adherans seront à son de trompe,
Biens publiez ennemys deschassez.
Richard Sieburth 2012 translation
The great senate a triumph shall bestow
On one they'll later overthrow & banish :
As to his followers, while the trumpet blows,
Their assets sold, enemies made to vanish.
