Michel de Nostredame, better known as Nostradamus, was a 16th-century French astrologer, physician, and seer, best known for his book Les Prophéties, a collection of 942 poetic quatrains that allegedly predict future events.

Early Life and Background

Nostradamus was born on December 14, 1503, in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, France. He studied medicine and became a physician during the time of the plague, gaining a reputation for innovative treatments. However, he later turned to astrology and mystical writings, which would define his legacy.

Les Prophéties

Published in 1555, Les Prophéties contains hundreds of four-line verses (quatrains) filled with cryptic language and symbolism. The book has never gone out of print and has sparked fascination for centuries due to its supposed accuracy in predicting major world events.

Famous Predictions

It's important to note that most of these "accuracies" are highly debated and rely on loose translations and interpretations.

The Controversy

Many scholars argue that Nostradamus’s predictions are so vague that they can be interpreted to match virtually any event. Critics claim that the quatrains use cryptic language and obscure references, allowing believers to fit them to a wide range of historical outcomes.

Legacy

Nostradamus died on July 2, 1566, but his legacy has endured for nearly 500 years. He is regarded by some as a prophetic genius and by others as a skilled writer who knew how to mystify and intrigue. Either way, he remains one of history’s most famous—and most mysterious—figures.

Whether you believe in his predictions or not, Nostradamus continues to captivate the imagination of millions around the world.

“The man who saw tomorrow”—and made the world wonder.
