Nostradamus Predictions: Insights for 2024 and His Glorious Beard

Written and produced by Damian Miller.

In December of 1503, Michael de Nostradame was born in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, France. This child would grow up to become a world renowned astrologer known as Nostradamus. Nostradamus has regained popularity in the early 1900s to now, as he has made multiple predictions that people associate with some of the biggest natural disasters in the world, and the rise and fall of leaders across the globe.

From correctly predicting the rises of Napoleon Bonaparte and Adolf Hitler, disasters such as the great fire of London and the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Nostradamus has been seen as somewhat of a true prophet by people who study him and believe his words. However, for the people that believe in him, there are probably 10 people who don’t. That being said, his quatrains have led to some lively scholarly debate and fun water cooler discussion.

As 2024 winds down, I wanted to sit and reflect on his predictions of 2024 and see if he got any right and see what he says could happen in 2025 as interpreted by those who study him and have deciphered his quatrains. This list has been compiled from the UK sky history website and the New York post. So a huge shout out to them.

in 2024, Nostradamus seems to have laid out that Prince Harry would become king. One of his passages says that :

“A king of the aisles will be driven out by force.”

According to Nostradamus commentator, Mario Redding, he believed that King Charles the third would abdicate the throne due to persistent threat on both himself and Queen Camilla. Mario then interprets this next line that says:

“The spare air has no mark of a king.”

This is insinuating that Harry would become king over Prince William. We can obviously that as of this recording, that did not come to fruition as King Charles the third is still sitting on the throne. Nostradamus also predicted that the climate crisis would get even worse.

“The dry earth will grow more parched and there will be great floods when it is seen.”

On this note, there has been a notable uptick in severe weather events, especially in the southeast of the United States and the Caribbean. Hurricanes have ravaged this part of the United States and Caribbean, and I think I would have to agree Nostradamus was correct here in this prediction. The third and final prediction of 2024 is that of a new pope:

“Through the death of a very old pontiff, a Roman of good age will be elected, Of him, it will be said that he weakens his sea, but long will he sit and in biting activity.”

Now this is definitely still up in the air as Pope Francis has had some health issues all throughout this year, dating back to 2023. However, as of the time of this recording, Pope Francis is still alive and kicking as our current Pope. Now let’s jump ahead to 2025 as we see Nostradamus potentially predicting an end to the war in Ukraine:

“Through long war, all the army exhausted so that they do not find money for the soldiers instead of gold or silver. They will come to coin leather, Gallic brass, and the Crescent sign of the moon.”

According to sky history, they’re interpreting this as a potential end of hostilities with the potential help of France through the mention of Gallic brass and the Crescent moon in reference to Turkey. Both of whom have been key supporters of Ukraine throughout this war. However, I must stress that while he may predict the end of the war, there is no indication as to how the end of the conflict will happen.

I know we’ve been doom and gloom this whole time and that’s kind of how Nostradamus works, but this prediction could be non-worldly disastrous and just implicates the EPL according to Sky History:

“The cock will see the eagle, its wing poorly finished by the lion, will it be put into extremity?”

Now, again, I have to say this is according to sky history. This points to the crystal palace football club being forced into dire financial straights by their premier league, which is represented by their logo of a lion. They then presume that Tottenham Hotspur will take advantage by signing a left winger.

Now, is this a stretch? Probably.

But it doesn’t hurt to have a less drastic prophecy that isn’t centered around the doom and gloom of global catastrophe. Now, I get it. You might be a skeptic or you might think he’s more accurate than your horoscope that you check. But there is no denying that he ignites a fervor every time the calendar ticks over in January. Is he the end all be all of Sears that we have seen?

Well, only time will tell.

His predictions may be real or they may be completely coincidental. The broad language does seem to lead to being tied to many things over the course of history. However, there is one thing that cannot be denied and we can all agree on:

Nostradamus had a tremendous beard.
