--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
French Michel de Nostredame, better known under the Latin name Nostradamus.
Nostradamus was a doctor, a seer, and won entry in the royal court. The queen favoured him. He studied astrological phenomenology - it was kabbalah teachings, mostly and also wrote hundreds of prophesies in terse, cryptic verses.
Nostradamus was born on December 14, 1503 and died the 1st or 2nd of July in 1566. His learning and abilities didn't make him foresee - it was something innate or given from deep inside.
His most notable successes are predictions centred on the French Revolutions, but he also named the leaders Franco and Rivera from the civil war in Spain in our centur
Nostradamus had to write in obscure style to avoid being prosecuted as a magician, and the poems - "Centuries" - of Nostradamus were made very obscure. First, he deliberately wrote in a terse, figurative or obscure style. Second, he also deliberatly confused the time sequence of the Prophecies so that their secrets would not be revealed to all.
Some say that de Notredame foretold his own death: When his assistant wished him goodnight on July 1, 1566, de Notredame said,"You will not find me alive at sunrise."He was found dead on July 2, 1566. Notredame was buried standing upright in the Church of the Cordeliers of Salon. But much later he was dug up twice, once on purpose and once maliciously.
In 1700, his body was moved by the city to a more prominent crypt. When a necklace was found on his skeleton bearing the date '1700', his body was hurriedly buried again.
During the French Revolution, in 1791, some drunken soldiers broke into his tomb. The mayor quickly placated the mob by describing how de Notredame had predicted the revolution, and they replaced the bones in the crypt. He had perhaps made an advance comment on that one; in Century 9, Quatrain 7:
The man who opens the tomb when it is found
And who does not close it immediately,
Evil will come to him
That no one will be able to prove.
The soldiers who desecrated his tomb for the final time were reputedly ambused on their way back to base and killed to the last man.
