Nostradamus C.9 Q.21: The virtuous view of the tragedies of war.
   The names in the text of this verse take on meaning when ascribed to 
   places along the Loire and just south of Blois. In the very heart of the 
   Loire Valley and at the gateway to Sologne is the royal town of Blois. 
   Throughout history many significant people and events have been centred on 
   Blois. Joan of Arc, Henry IV, Marie d'Medici are a few that are part of 
   the many   that would have been of concern to French people in 
   Nostradamus time. There is a bridge at Blois but it dates from the 
   nineteenth century so if this is the setting it is part of Nostradamus' 
   dream of times beyond sixteenth century France.  The word Solonne 
   used by Nostradamus in the first line has no unambiguous sense but the 
   Loire and Blois are gateways to the Sologne and the following description 
   of the Solonge from modern tourism literature shows relevance to this 
   verse and justifies seeing Solonne as Sologne. 
Stretching southeast of Blois, the Sologne is one of those traditionally rural regions of France that help keep alive the national self-image. Depending on the weather and the season, it can be one of the most dismal areas in central France: damp, flat, featureless and foggy. But at other times its forests, lakes, ponds and marshes have a quiet magic. 
   The text carries the bitter-sweet tunes of a particular battle and this 
   articulation of the peculiar glories of war-based savagery is mirrored in 
   the anagrams.

      Nostradamus' verse C.9 Q.34 - Luther's impact as a Paraclete on ideology and war.
The following verse  describes the impact in the 
sixteenth century of Luther's views on the wars of that century. It then 
nominates the same tensions as being the cause of wars later in this century. 
The reference to oil for knives is a particularly apt reference to the trading 
of arms for fuel.  The anagram for Paracletus in the fourth line gives a bold and demagogic public-speaking framework to the style and aim of Luther's mission.

Centuries 9 Quatrain 17: Maria Medici, Florentine Queen of France.
      Centuries 9 Quatrain 17: Maria Medici, Florentine Queen of France.
It would be surprising if either the Medici line or the reign 
of Henry IV of France were absent from Nostradamus' Prophecies but this is not 
the case and they are part of threads about the secondary issues covering events 
before the great mutations of the 21st century. Such a theme can be found in the 
text of the current verse with its references to the third (of the King Henry 
series) being worse than Nero in a period where human blood flowed freely and 
burnings were frequent. This king was succeeded by Henry IV after another of the 
constant religious wars that vexed the 16th century. It was under this new kings 
reign that a period known as a Golden Age came to France. Maria de Medici, a 
Florentine princess became his wife in 1600 and the day before his death in 1610 
she was crowned Queen of France. Althougn Henry's infidelities created 
considerable scandal there were many other causes of gossip and slander about 
his wife. The following are extracts from the 
Wikipedia entry on Maria 
de Medici, Queen of France. 
Maria Medici married Henri IV by proxy in 1600 and the wedding was a festive occasion in the city with a spectacular ceremony in the Cathedral. In spite of her husband’s infidelity, the marriage was blessed with several children and Maria showed herself useful in affairs of state while encouraging cultural life at court. On the death of her husband, she acted as regent, though by the time Louis XIII came of age, she had allied herself with Spain and against her son. Cardinal Richelieu turned the tables and Louis XIII regained his throne, banishing his mother from court. ...The marriage was successful in producing children, but it was not a happy one. The queen feuded with Henry's mistresses in language that shocked French courtiers. She quarrelled mostly with her husband's leading mistress, Catherine Henriette de Balzac d'Entragues, whom he had promised he would marry following the death of his former "official mistress", Gabrielle d'Estrees. When he failed to do so, and instead married Marie, the result was constant bickering and political intrigues behind the scenes. Although the king could have easily banished his mistress, supporting his queen, he never did so. She, in turn, showed great sympathy and support to her husband's banished ex-wife Margaret of Valois, prompting Henry to allow her back into the realm. 
Some of the detail of this story such as Florentine 
   Queen is contained within the anagrams but their  inclusion is 
   meant as identifying keys linking this and another theme, the building of 
   calendars using ancient poetic-chant coding methods.

Nostradamus C.9 Q.12: The exploration of the fundaments of the universe and its potential returns
      Nostradamus C.9 Q.12: The exploration of the fundaments of the universe and its potential returns.
   This verse is full of symbolism alluding to peope, places and appropriate 
   parallel events. One significant set of anagrams refers to Archelaus, 
   ethnarch and ancestor oracles. This points to events associated with the 
   ethnarch of Arabia,
   
   Herod Archelaus and  oracles around the time the jesus 
   legend began to form. However the verse's anagrams also carry a more 
   modern theme of a person associated with experiments on the nucleus of 
   atoms. This theme is thrust forward on the back of anagrams such as 
   absorbent, slowing, detaining and retarding nucleators which involves 
   terms close to the process involved in nuclear and sub-nuclear reactions. 
   But the idea of a torrent suggests it is a process where a stream is fired 
   while eternal cure implies a medical research aim. Putting all this 
   together brings it in line with the story contained in other quatrains 
   about experiments at Geneva. It is the details of this story that gives 
   meaning to the text since geneva is on a lake, the experiments are very 
   expensive, their aim is to find the fundaments of matter and by so doing 
   there is an expectation of great financial reward.

Centuries 9 Quatrain 11: Jules of Agen's, his son, Joseph Scaliger and the debate on mortal matters.
Centuries 9 Quatrain 11: Jules of Agen's , his son, Joseph Scaliger and the debate on mortal matters.
The following verse contains strong anagrammatic 
references to Jules of Agen and its narrative seems to be based on Nostradamus' 
critique od calendar treatments published by his mentor, Jules Cesar Scaliger 
and his son Joseph Juste Scaliger. My paper titled
Jules 
of Agen covers their relationship and the quatrains which 
Nostradamus used to show the influence the Scalier family had on his code. 
The last line of this verse contains the word jugeans which
doesn't
exist
as a
real
word
in
French. Nostradamus only uses it in this single place but it is this
word that delivers up a remarkably salient anagrammatic sequence which is Jules
of Agens (lesju geans of). What makes it even more unusual is that of
the four occurrences of the anagram for Jules two of them occur in this verse.
The second occurrence is at the start of the first line and is formed from part of
the word juste which is the middle name of Jules famous son Joseph.
So in
the
line Jules
name is connected to the middle name of his last son. This then
removes the lack of meaning in the second line since its reference and in
the middle aptly applies to his son's middle name. It could also be 
   claimed Joseph as the last  of Jules' sons was the completion of 
   Jules public duties of fatherhood. Joseph Juste Scaliger would go on to 
   fill much of the other tones of the verse including those of the first 
   line. And again this verse is rich in sequential anagrams of a type that 
   suggest they are intentional.

Nostradamus C.9 Q.10: Money and opiates cloud the picture of a priestly intercourse
      Nostradamus C.9 Q.10: Money and opiates cloud the picture of a priestly intercourse.
   The text of this verse seems to be linked to the hidden messages of
  C.08 Q.96 
  in which a nun bears a child and is punished for not keeping to the 
   proper rituals. The last line of the current verse contains a strong 
   sequence of anagrams saying 'other sacred oracles' while those in 
   the earlier lines relate to money and treasure that 
   possibly is linked to drug-runners. Its text implies a means of ritual 
   exposure for unacceptable births. There is an anagram for Sefirot 
   in the third line which fits to the idea this verse is meant to be linked 
   to a series of similar toned quatrains.  If this is done a picture is 
   built of a nun who serves a non-uniformed household function in an abbey 
   where drugs are traded with the local populace but she is unable to speak 
   in her own or her child's defence when she bears a child to a monk and the 
   authorities condemn the child as a the bastard offspring of a nearby army.

Nostradamus C.8 Q.96: The Eastern Madonna who is the victim of her talent
      Nostradamus C.8 Q.96: The Eastern Madonna who is the victim of her talent.
   In the Middle East a Christian woman of talent is born amongst the 
   missiles af an Arab- Israeli conflict. She is forced into a marriage with 
   a lazy suitor and escapes the burden of this  marriage by the use of 
   drugs. Her actions are condemned by those who control her life and she 
   will choose to die an agonising death, leaving behind a child that will 
   shape the outcome of the war. 
   This is one of the many incidental tales Nostradamus chose to write and 
   thereby lay out the incidents that shape the course of his major themes. 
   His story can be picked out of the text but it is in the anagrams that the 
   greater detail lies. The hidden verse is full of religious references , 
   birth and career markers all of which although rare have interwoven 
   connectivities with each other and the message of the text. 
    There are several names used in the anagrams that generate a 
   framework of the events. The use of the name Heracles and his tasks 
   sugests the magnitude of what she faces while the name
   
   Arachne indicates she will be judged by those in control 
   as being too indepedent, highly talented and too much of a challenge to 
   themselves.

Nostradamus C.8 Q.81: Dnieper river as location for desolation of Russia and Ukraine.
      Nostradamus C.8 Q.81: Dnieper river as location for desolation of Russia and Ukraine.
   The location for this verse is quite specific as a result of both the text 
   and the anagrams.  It involves the Dneiper River flowing from 
   north-west Russia, through Belarus and Ukraine to the Black Sea. In doing 
   so it flows past what is now the concrete tomb of the failed Chernobyl 
   reactor. The anagrams reveal medical terms related to birth and illnesses 
   of the throat and reproduction which are consistent with radiation 
   sicknesses. There are other anagrams that tie these events into a later 
   period at about the time of the fire from the sky. (See my papers for 
   Nuclear 
   Events and 
   Fire from the 
   Sky for more.) 
   The word desolation occurs correctly as defolation in the French text and 
   as the word desolation in the anagrams of the first line. the English 
   anagrams of defolation are deflation or defoliant both of which fit to the 
   concept of great trouble that is the focus of the third line of text.

Nostradamus C.8 Q.80: James Earl Ray, assassin and financial conspirator.
Nostradamus C.8 Q.80: James Earl Ray, assassin and financial conspirator.
In 1987 I found a most unexpected anagram in this verse, it was the alias 
adopted by James Earl Ray in 1968. The other anagrams fit to the tale of both 
James Earl Ray's assassination of Martin Luther King and a more modern extension 
of a sect involved in both murder and financial manipulations. This verse is 
discussed in my papers on this subject (See  my paper on 
Martin Luther King 
for full analysis). Below is an extract from my earlier work.  
A little more than two months after King's death, on June 8 1968, Ray, an escaped convict who had broken out of the Missouri State Penitentiary a year before the assassination, was captured at London's Heathrow Airport while trying to leave the United Kingdom on a false Canadian passport in the name of Ramon George Sneyd. He was desperate for money. He'd been involved in robberies in the UK and this was the reason for his voyage. Ray was charged with King's murder, confessing to the assassination on March 10, 1969, (though he recanted this confession three days later) and was sentenced to 99 years in prison. On the advice of his attorney Percy Foreman, Ray took a guilty plea to avoid a trial conviction and therefore the possibility of receiving the death penalty. It was while exploring the above facts that I entered the name Ramon-George-Sneyd into my search program and found it existed as an anagram in Centuries VIII Quatrein 80 L.2 . This line's visible text is "so many evils committed by means of the Great Red one" which seems pertinent to a murderer such as James Ray but it leaves a question, was James Earl Ray ever called the Great Red one? I can find nothing to suggest he was. The hidden text implies Ramon George Sneyd mandate, money fails as parts and this is an accurate reflection of what happened.

Nostradamus C.8 Q.77: The battle of the popes and their nuclear war.
Nostradamus C.8 Q.77: The battle of the popes and their nuclear war.
It is here in this verse that Nostradamus makes it clear that the future 
   holds a great war in which opposing views of the Cristian church are 
   engaged. His text indicates that it is those with belief in an active God 
   that are the instigators of the war which is started in order to commit 
   genocide on those who have different views. The anagrams yield a 
   collection of complex words that also have religious war significance. Of 
   these 'nontheistical' is the most potent as it refers to people who 
   believe in a single God but not not in his interaction with mankind. It is 
   combined with an anagram for 'interclash' that implies war between those 
   whose major views are identical. There are also anagrams for 'Constantine' 
   and 'Gregories' both of which provide a historical parallel to the war 
   that is yet to happen. Constantine is the name of the first Roman emperor 
   to adopt christianity. In the eighth century (767-768) the second pope 
   with the name Constantine came to be known as an antipope. Since that time 
   there have been two antipopes with the name Gregory (1012 and 1118-1121). 
   The implication of the text together with the anagrams is that a pope will 
   be elected as a consequence of forceful intervention by a conservative 
   faction but this antipope will be deposed after a twenty-seven year war 
   that invokes the use of nuclear weaponry. 
It was Constantine I who was involved with the settings underpinning the 
   Nicean Council and this council's main issues are a focal point for many 
   of Nostradamus' quatrains. The threads in these verses is one of religious 
   division over the status of Christ in relation to the God of monotheistic 
   religions. These threads unite into a stream of Christ-based lineage 
   stories and a disastrous religious war at the end of the 21st Century. 
   This war blends into the other major disasters of massive floods and fire 
   from the sky that make up the three main streams of Nostradamus' 
   Prophecies (See 
Nicea-Agennos for more).

Nostradamus C.8 Q.71: Scaliger, astronomy and dating methods.
      Nostradamus C.8 Q.71: Scaliger, astronomy and dating methods.
   This verse shows some intriguing variations in the manner of the anagrams 
   encodement when he dealt with topics where his name and his Pophecies were 
   the focus. In these verses uses sophisticated splitting techniques so in 
   this verse the second line holds an anagram for centuries in two parts 
   that are separated by the the letter 'l'. This lone letter combines with 
   the remaining lettering to the left of that for centuries to form an 
   anagram for line while on the right it forms an anagram for rules. The 
   resultant anagrams 'centuries-lines. and 'centuries-rules' are very 
   topical and only occur in this line of verse. Similar splits occur in the 
   first line and involve his name and variants on astronomy related words. 
   This technique is taken to a further extreme in an earlier verse 
  C.02 Q.86 
  which holds a split anagram for Michel Nostredame and whole 
   anagrams for comets and story. 
   The year 1607 was a time at which the new generation of astronomic views 
   was under great challenge by religious traditionalists but it is also the 
   year when Joseph Juste Scaliger's Protestant based scholarship was 
   undermined by the Jesuits. Scaliger transformed the dating mechanism for 
   ancient texts and relied on physical phenomena such as astronomic settings 
   to build his historical chronologies. Joseph Scaliger was the youngest son 
   of Jules Scaliger, the person who served as Nostradamus mentor in the 
   years preceding Joseph's birth. The method Nostradamus uded to date his 
   future parallels the method used by Joseph Scaliger to date the past. 
   Although there is no reason to believe these two communicated with each 
   other the flaws in earlier dating systems and its resolution would have 
   been part of the debates both had with Jules Scaliger (See my paper on 
   Jules 
   of Agen for more on these themes). 
   There are two other poorly formed but rare variants relevant to Joseph 
   Scalige in the third line which yield Scaloger Manilis. Joseph Scaligers 
   historical dating methodology was publised in a volume titled 
   Manilius 
   in 1579.

Nostradamus C.8 Q.47: Destruction of the Light of the World.
Nostradamus C.8 Q.47: Destruction of the Light of the World.
This is another verse with places named that dont 
   relate to obvious locations. I believe this is Nostradamus way of getting 
   the reader to look at the context not the actual name. It is part of his 
   use of a gazetteer, a document that lists places by their attributes. In 
   doing this he can incorporate code words that otherwise would be too 
   simple to decipher. So the word Perouse misdirects attention to Perugia 
   when it is meant to be the whole of Europe. The anagrams include one for 
   suzerain, a reference to a country that is controlled by an outside force 
   but granted the right of self-rule and in the case of modern Europe this 
   would be the European Union.  
Another anagram is that of Razes which is a region in 
   Southern France that was prominent at the time that Catharism was 
   prevalent. One of the outstanding leaders of the Cathars was Esclarmonde 
   of Foix, a woman whose name meant  ' light of the world'. Several 
   complex anagrams such as 'atrometer clearest pointer' imply similar 
   attributes. But the thrust of Nostradamus interest is not the past but the 
   future and the relevance of the past is to define philosophical leanings 
   and metaphors for events to come. The uniting theme is held by the term 
   predaceosness whichh alludes to plundering, pillaging and destruction, all 
   actions consistent with the text of the fourth line. Hence what we can 
   expect is a savage, brutal, religious war between those having dogmatic 
   views based on minor nuances.

   way of dating the Prophecies. The importance of its content was in one of 
   the earliest of my modern papers (since 2004). See my paper called

Nostradamus C.8 Q.36: The family heading the dreaded Malthusian cataclysm.
      Nostradamus C.8 Q.36: The family heading the dreaded Malthusian cataclysm.
   There are four names given in the text of this verse, three of which have 
   the context of being places while the fourth apperas to be a persons. But 
   none of these names is spelled in a manner that clearly identifies them. 
   And the story in the text is itself so vague as to appear meaning less. 
   Yet the anagrams contain many complex, rare words that have agreater 
   consistency than the text. Such a pttern is typical of coded messages and 
   is an important clue in their eventual decipherment. 
   It appears that an economist who is a believer in the singular origin of 
   all mankind fears that the world will become overly congested up to a time 
   when cataclysms  redress the population imbalance. This is a good 
   mirroring of the views of the 19th century economist Thomas Malthus and 
   this ties into
  C.05 Q.37 
  which holds the only anagram for Malthusian. In that verse there are 
   anagrams for ' Malthusian finance', 'creditors' and 'debtors' (see my 
   paper called 
   
   Nostradamus on gold for more. In that same paper I tie other 
   verses together to show that all these events relate to the end of this 
   century. 
   The last three lines contain anagrams about the life patterns of a family 
   intimately involved in the creation of the finanacial crisis

Nostradamus C.8 Q.29: Caesar and Caepio as reference guides to modern gold crisis.
      Nostradamus C.8 Q.29: Caesar and Caepio as reference guides to modern gold crisis.
   The intent of this verse is to provide a suitable metaphor for the gold 
   based financial crisis of the 21st century. By comparison to events 
   surrounding two ancient figures Nostradmus delivers a picture of the 
   events that will identify the coming crisis. Both these figures had 
   adventures in the parts of Southern Europe with which Nostradamus was well 
   acquiainted so their referencing is quite apt. See my paper called 
   Nostradamus 
   on Gold for more detail.
 
   The following extract in Wikipedia provides detail of the gold carried off 
   by 
   Quintus Servilius Caepio in 105 BCE an event which is directly 
   referred to in the last line of this verse. 
While marching to Arausio (modern-day Orange) Caepio plundered the temples of the town of Tolosa, ancient Tolouse, finding over 50,000 fifteen-pound bars of gold and 10,000 fifteen-pound bars of silver. Strabo reports a story told in his time of this semi-legendary treasure, the aurum Tolosanum, supposed to have been the "cursed gold" looted during the sack of Delphi during the Gallic invasion of the Balkans in 279 BC. The riches of Tolosa were shipped back to Rome, but only the silver made it; the gold was stolen by a band of marauders, who were believed to have been hired by Caepio himself. The Gold of Tolosa was never found, and was said to have been passed all the way down to the last heir of the Servilii Caepiones, Marcus Junius Brutus 
   The text holds the name Caepio while the anagrams contain 'Caesar's 
   talent'. Caesar followed Caepio by about two generations and one of 
   the common recognitions  by later generations was that he was a man 
   of many talents. The following is a concluding statement in a brief online 
   article on 
   Caesar's life.. 
As a general and a statesman, Caesar has clearly earned his place in world history. With the exception of Cicero, he was the greatest orator of his time. As a historian, he has rarely been surpassed in simplicity, directness and dignity. A man of many talents, Caesar was a mathematician, philologist, jurist and architect. The main outcome of his illustrious career was the transformation of Rome from a Republic to an Empire.

Nostradamus C.8 Q.28: The keys to 21st century financial crises.
      Nostradamus C.8 Q.28: The unifying code built into locational attributes.
   The only anagram of 
   gazetteer appears in this verse and I iuse this term in many of 
   my analyses of the financial crisis of the 21st century. These discussions 
   and a more detailed definition of this term are to be found in my paper 
   called 
   Nostradamus 
   on Gold.  
   A gazeteteer is a body of writings that builds a description of a place 
   through its physical, climatic, population, production, trade and 
   occupational attributes. Gazetters have been used since ancient times in 
   combination with maps. The importance of maps and their construction is a 
   focus of verse 
   C.08 Q.26 
   which relates to Nostradamus' quest via his patrons. The last line of this 
   current verse has an anagram for prescribe and two separate anagrams for 
   prescript and there are no other anagrams for these two words in any other 
   verse. Now prescript means something prescribed, especially a rule or 
   regulation of conduct and so each one emphasises that something important 
   underlies this verse and in particular its fourth line. It is in this line 
   that gazetteer appears. The implication is that that there is a time of 
   financial crisis where the links between the relevant verses is based on 
   locational attributes. 
   The story contained in the anagrams indicates an issue arises from a small 
   group of Christians within an Islamic setting. This issue involves the way 
   that people with infectious disease are treated after death, a theme linked 
   to that in verse 
   C.07 Q.41. 
   Although it seems that the stories of the text anad anagrams are unrelated 
   they are united by the gazetteer prescribed by Nostradmus which a trail 
   incorporating all these different threads.

Nostradamus C.8 Q.26: Two of Nostradamus 16thC patrons.
      Nostradamus C.8 Q.26: Two of Nostradamus 16thC patrons.
   I believe this verse is included to indicate  the calibre of the 
   people who supported Nostradamus' quest. Nostradamus' major patron appears 
   to have been Jean de Bernuy, pastel dye grower and exporter of Toulouse. 
   The story of this man is given in greater detail in my paper on 
   
   Nostradamus Sect. His last name is found amongst the anagrams in 
   the fourth line of this verse  while the story in the text and the 
   anagrams can be interpreted in a consistent way. It appears to be the tale 
   of a smuggling route for pastel dye between Toulouse and Barcelona. Such 
   an operation was necessary throughout much of Bernuy's life. The third 
   line behaves in a familar way for it has a lovely crypticism built into 
   it- The great one who holds, but does not hold is a good metaphor 
   for the dye trade which was is in perpetual competition to improve the 
   fastness of colour. These trails can be seen in anagrams such as dyes, 
   surety, irresolute (for the process) and Caderonne, subterraneous route 
   (for a secret passage through the tunnels along the French-Spanish border 
   route from mid France to Barcelona). 
   There is however another tale of the sixteent century to be found in the 
   anagrams and it is about a map-maker from England who is deeply involved 
   in the revolution of the difficult art of creating a too-scale world map 
   that was correct for all regions from the equator to the poles. I believe 
   that  the relevance of this story is that the person who succeeded 
   Bernuy as patron of Nostradamus.

Nostradamus C.7 Q.42: The gods of passion and sex motivate a critical infanticide.
Nostradamus C.7 Q.42: The gods of passion and sex motivate a critical infanticide.
Tho two gods named in the anagrams of this verse 
   represent Sex and passion respectively. Alongside these names are rare 
   anagrams related to these aspects. There are terms such as pre-sexual, wave 
   related words and accosting that reinforce the rightness of the names. 
   Another significant anagram is that for calendars since both of these Gods 
   are part of ancient systems; Isis is the principal figure at the start of 
   the Egyptian calendar and here she is associated with the flood 
   regenerated rebirth of the land. Poseidon is part of ancient Greek 
   festival calendars and it is linked to the winter solstice. 
The story held within the anagrams is consistent with 
   the use of a contraceptive medication that goes awry leading to a multiple 
   birth with one of the siblings mentally impaired. There is even a hint 
   that one of the participants uses a simple remedy in order to make easier 
   this most difficult of births but consequent efforts are made to ensure 
   most of these offspring will not survive. Such a tale fits quite well to 
   the story of the text which then makes the first born child the one who is 
   damaged by the birth. Such a tale also fits to the themes of Centuries 
   Seven for it delivers well defined names and relates to issues of 
   mortality consistent with Nostradamus' interest in the nature of the human 
   soul.

Nostradamus C.7 Q.41: In death we are united.
Nostradamus C.7 Q.41: In death we are united.
This verse's infrequent anagram list is full of place names ranging across 
   Belarus, the Congo,the Mid-East and Mongolia and there are clusters of 
   words bearing strong cohesive links. The cluster of bluer, pigments, 
   untreated, cocagnes (pastel dye-leaf rolls), shipment and Patroness can be 
   drawn together as part of the pastel-dye industry around Toulouse and 
   Carcassonne in the 16th century. This is a region and an activity with 
   which Nostradamus would have been familiar for he spent many of his early 
   adulthood years in that region. My paper on 
   
   Nostradamus Sect identifies this same connection through other 
   means. What unifies the text and the story-lines in the anagrams is a 
   connection with the rituals that different cultures use to bury their 
   dead. Such practices usually reflect the manner in which people of a 
   region view the soul and its need for respect at the time of death. 
   Throughout many places and times one of the important features has been 
   the death shroud and as such  it usually was a high quality, status 
   garment treated with the sort of dye with which Nostradamus was familiar. 
   In choosing his places and the topic Nostradamus is highlighting a cluster 
   that is unified in the act of grief at a time when countries such as 
   Belarus had the names used in the angarams. This places the period of 
   unity in death in modern times. The inclusion of a named bacterial disease 
   (entamoebiasis) suggests there is a world-wide pandemic and this fits to 
   the scenario that other verses paint for the end of this century.

Nostradamus C.7 Q.39: The French army leader mutilated by his adversaries.
      Nostradamus C.7 Q.39: The French army leader mutilated by his adversaries.
Here yet again we have a verse whose text is full of 
   vague, cryptic enigmas but its anagrams contain many names and they 
   provide links to other verses that fill in the detail. Amongst the names 
   Freemasonic, Pandora and Prussia provide important settings for this tale 
   of a French military leader who loses a large part of his army in a 
   foreign land.  It is in essence an unflattering character description  
   of a leader whose behaviour inflames retribution from his adversaries.

Nostradamus C.7 Q.38: The equestrians death that affects us all.
      Nostradamus C.7 Q.38: The equestrians death that affects us all.
This verse is different to most of those in Centuries 
   seven since it doesn't offer a significant name nor does it easily link 
   into the concept of the evolution of the soul. Yet its anagrams have 
   powerful connections with the text and it may well be that it delvers the 
   necessary relevance through its detail. There is no doubt that the text 
   and the anagrams are about  physical mutilation through an equestrian 
   accident. The text tells us the magnitude of the mutilation in a very 
   generalised way but the anagrams tell us the shocking details of how the 
   entrails are torn apart and the genitals separated from the body by the 
   mob as much as the accident itself. There is a sense in the anagrams of a 
   courtly involvement in the plight of the equestrian with the courtiers 
   emotionally involved in the lead up events and its immediate aftermath.  
   The story and the context fit into the events of the financial turmoil 
   starting in the current decade which involve an Olympic equestrian, gold 
   scandals and a financial crisis that underpins all the disasters that 
   follow (See my paper on 
   
   Nostradamus-gold_date_code for more.) From this we can conclude 
   this is no routine part of history but a critical moment when the chance 
   to alter the fate of mankind is lost.

Nostradamus C.7 Q.36: The evolution of the Soul from horror to trust.
Nostradamus C.7 Q.36: The evolution of the Soul from horror to trust.
n the text of this verse Nostradamus alludes to the themes I identify as 
   central to the verses in Centuries seven. In the first line he links the 
   dramatic changes in the human soul to the time of flood at the end of this 
   cetury. In doing so we see he nominates the evolutionary focal point as 
   words, the production of which distinguishes both the physical and the 
   ethereal nature of the higher species. He then ties this into more detail 
   about the way in which humans bring about the end to their own dominance 
   of the highest point of evolution. Modern man has largely forgotten that 
   our species is not the end point but merely a passing flutter in the 
   unrelenting progress of evolution. And he emphasises not the strength but 
   the weakness of our current evolutionary standpoint wherein our savage 
   origins linger on in the form of wars and criminality until the rise of 
   trust pemeates the newly emerging soul.  
The anagrams tell the same story in a difrerent way, reflecting on the 
   savagery of our past through the mirror of Nazi Germany and modern 
   industrial energy demands but counterbalancing and overriding it is the 
   views of a philosopher named in this verse. Not only is he named but his 
   philosophical position is also given throough the complex anagram of 
   Gnosticizer. 
Epicurus (341-270 BC):For Epicurus, the purpose of philosophy was to attain the happy, tranquil life, characterized by ataraxia—peace and freedom from fear—and aponia—the absence of pain—and by living a self-sufficient life surrounded by friends. He taught that pleasure and pain are the measures of what is good and evil; death is the end of both body and soul and should therefore not be feared; the gods neither reward nor punish humans; the universe is infinite and eternal; and events in the world are ultimately based on the motions and interactions of atoms moving in empty space
