Famous Predictions

Nostradamus, the man who made all those famous predictions 500 years ago. (1503-1566) and his famous predictions in the form of quadrains have facinated people ever since. Many of his ancient predictions are thought by some to have come true in recent times, although this is hotly disputed by many. Here is one of the more famous ones:

Century 1, 81 - “Space Shuttle Disaster” (Challenger, destroyed on take-off on January 28th 1986)

“From the human flock nine will be sent away,

Separated from control and advice

Their fate will be sealed on departure

K-Th-L make a error; the dead banished”

And the explanation why this relates to the space shuttle is given as:-

“..nine will be sent away -.> Actually, there were 7 crew members.

Separated from control and advice -> The ground controllers could do nothing.

Their fate will be sealed on departure -> Videos show that flame was escaping while the rocket was still on the pad. Their fate was sealed from the instant of departure.

K-Th-L -> ThioKoL - manufacturer of the defective rocket engine. Vowels are omitted and two consonants transposed.”

We have a prediction concerning NINE people, and the shuttle had SEVEN, and the last line - as originally written reads “Kappa, Thita, Lambda mors bannis esgarez.” And this becomes K-Th-L, which becomes “Thiokol” which becomes “Morton Thiokol Corporation”, which is just one of the many companies involved in the manufacture and construction of the Solid Rocket Boosters. Many take this quadrain to e precognition of the space shuttle dissaster some 500 years earlier!

The Book of Revelation The most famous Christian prophecy, lets hope that one dosen’t bare fruit!

Edgar Cayce

Predicted that flooding of the coasts worldwide would begin in 1998.

There is a good deal of scientific concern that the coastal areas around the world ARE in danger of flooding. With the rapid melt of glaciers and thawing of perma-frost there is a real danger of raising the sea level significantly. Several tropical islands are already seeing their beaches disappearing from the slowly rising seas, and trees along the shores have been toppling into the ocean. Cayce appears to be right on target with his predictions.

Edgar Cayce also predicted that Atlantis would rise again from the Bahamas area of the Caribbean.

Atlantis is rising - although not in the way one would expect. A massive $480 million dollar Atlantis resort has been built on Paradise Island in the Bahamas. It features a Mayan-type temple, the world’s largest aquarium, a casino, a faux-Atlantean archaeological dig, a 60 foot water-slide (into an acrylic tube running through a shark-infested tank) and 3 massive hotels with water cascading continually down the outside walls to appear as if it has just risen intact out of the ocean. Is this the reappearance of Atlantis that Cayce had forseen or just a happy coincidence?

The Dead Sea Scrolls

An ancient texts stored in earthen jars and hidden in desert caves for centuries until discovered in 1947. A great apocalyptic scroll found among the Dead Sea library is called the War Scroll. It depicts, in a prophetic way, great conflict between the forces of good (the Sons of Light) and the forces of evil (the Sons of Darkness) at the end of the era. While a series of fierce battles is predicted, the battles themselves are not actually described. Instead, the bulk of the document is a vivid description of liturgical praise. At the heart of it there is no fighting at all, but participation in a great liturgical ceremony, with trumpets, standards, and shining armor. In the final analysis, the battle is won by praise, by personal purity, by a noble state of mind. The longest of all the texts in the Dead Sea library is The Temple Scroll. The Temple Scroll represents the dream of a new spiritual center, in the heart of Jerusalem, beaming light to all the world, yet existing, for the time-being, only in minds of the sect called the Essenes.

The Three Secrets of Fatima

In 1917, or so the story goes, the Virgin Mary descended on Fatima, Portugal, and spoke to three shepherd children. As the sun fluttered and zagged across the sky, Mary imparted what have become known as her three “secrets.” The first was a harrowing vision of hell and a prediction that while the world war would end, a worse war would follow — which disciples interpret as a prediction of World War II. The second was a call for piety and the consecration of Russia. The third secret was supposed to be unveiled in 1960, when Pope John XXIII opened it and quickly had it resealed. Though every pope since has read it, and Fatima is viewed as an “official” miracle by the church, the contents of the final message remain unknown to the public. The Vatican refuses to allow it to be made public to this day!
Hopi Indians Predictions

The Hopi Indians predict “before the great Purification, they will make metal roads for iron horses [trains and train tracks] and hang metal ropes [power lines] in the air.” The last danger sign is that “first they will bring back pieces of the Moon. Purification will begin shortly after humans build a great house in the sky” [space station?]

The Hopi have made their ancient legends known to the world because they belive that we are quickly approaching a crossroads. They believe that the signs are pointing to the likelihood that we are going to end up on a very unpleasant path unless we change our ways, and quickly. The Hopi legends speak of prior human epochs when people rose to great technological heights only to destroy themselves. They believe that we need the spiritual and technological to fuse to survive. Each has developed seperately and must now reunite. Legend predicts that the “last stage before the Great Purification will be when the white man comes into the Four Corners area and tries to take it. If we dig precious things from the land we will perish.” (Congress in 1985 passed the Restoration Act to move Hopi and Navajo tribes out of Four Corners so that the U.S. could mine the reservation lands.)

“There will be fires everywhere,” Hopi legends warn. In December of 1998, the U. S. Weather Service reported that they expect a major Dust Bowl to develop in the near future. It could stretch from Texas to Minnesota and be much worse than the most recent Dust Bowl that caused so much hardship. This one is expected to last decades. There have been other great droughts in the U.S. - one 300 years ago in the late 1600’s and the other 300 years before that in the late 1300’s. ( Are you sensing a pattern here?) If the drought ends up to be as intense as predicted, the fires that will likely be caused by it may be the ‘Purification’ that the Hopi predicted.

Arthur C. Clarke

Artificial Intelligence reaches human levels by 2020, the complete control of matter at the atomic level is achieved by 2015, and full-immersion virtual reality is possible in 2025.

Clarke also said that by 2040, a universal replicator based on nanotechnology will create any object and a true “space drive” for exploring other star systems will be developed by 2095.
