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.    C.8 Q.96 The sterile synagogue without any fruit, will be received by the infidels, the daughter of the persecuted (man) of Babylon, miserable and sad, they will clip her wings.  La $ynagogue $terile $ans nul fruit Sera receu entre les infideles De Babylon la fille du por$uit Mi$ere et tri$te luy tranchera les ai$les.

Nostradamus C.7 Q.06: The age of Aquarius engulfed by Celestial ills. Here Nostradamus alludes to how he has referred to and amended ancient ideas of the celestial plane to meet his own needs. He has fitted the zodiac signs using Aquarius instead of Aries as his starting point. His is the age of Aquarius and he indicates it by anagrams referring to a maiden guest and mountain lakes (cirques). It is in this designated age that the ills mentioned in his text will occur. This is indeed one of Nostradamus' major themes as can be seen in my papers titled Mutations and Nostradamus on War   C.7 Q.06 Naples, Palerma and all of Sicily will be uninhabited through Barbarian hands.

Nostradamus C.6 Q.100: The powerful curse of musical code. Although generally ignored or dismissed as a weird curse this verse holds highly potent clues to the encoding techniques concealing Nostradamus' deepest secrets. It is the obvious verse to contain highly vital information since it is the only one entirely in Latin and the only one with a header. And the curse itself is not a curse but an invitation to ignore its threat if you wish to know Nostradamus' secrets.   C.6 Q.100 INCANTATION OF THE LAW AGAINST INEPT CRITICS Let those who read this verse consider it deeply Let the profane and the ignorant herd keep away And far away all Astrologers, Idiots and Barbarians May he who does otherwise be subject to the sacred rites LEGIS CANTIO CONTRA INEPTOS CRITICOS.

Yet in this verse is one of the two anagrams for Erasmus that are found in Nostradamus' Prophecies. I believe that Nostradamus wrote this verse for a specific audience and that names such as Erasmus were his ciphers for these people to use as markers. And there are many good reasons why this verse should also be considered to contain a cipher for Julius Caesar Scaliger, the most prominent of Latin writer of his time. Firstly this quatrain is the only one in Latin which suggests the importance this language choice must have in identifying its import to specific readers. A further clue is Scaliger was considered by Erasmus to be an inept critic. Jules was prolific in his attacks on many scholars of his time and claims of ineptitude flew freely amongst him and those he criticised. Nostradamus' reference to the inept critic in his header again draws attention to the battle between Scaliger and Erasmus. it tells the knowledgeable reader that this is the verse where the key lies to whatever purpose Nostradamus' Prophecies serves. The solution in this verse lies within a group or sect that is highly interested in the issues  that divided and united these two new conservative heretics (Erasmus and Scaliger) and who viewed Nostradamus as their own special courier. They were people Nostradamus had met in Agen during the time that Scaliger was in battle with Erasmus from 1533 to 1538CE. Wikipedia includes the following short statement that tells us much that is relevant to identifying the ciphers. 'In 1531 he [Scaliger] printed his first oration against Erasmus in defence of Cicero and the Ciceronians. It is a piece of vigorous invective, displaying, like all his subsequent writings, an astonishing command of Latin and much brilliant rhetoric, but full of vulgar abuse, and completely missing the point of the Ciceronianus of Erasmus.' Scaliger, like many others of his time, also published works on Poetry and Religion. Some of these were published as collections in later years.  Given the relationship that had once existed between the two men and Nostradamus high esteem of the contributions Scaliger made to his own progress, it wouldn't be at all surprising for this verse to have been  used in the way I imply. However this quatrain was published in 1555 when Erasmus was dead and Scaliger was already confined to his bed and unable to adequately respond. Scaliger died in 1558, the same year that the second part of Nostradamus' Prophecies were officially published. Although both Scaliger and Erasmus are indicated as ciphers underpinning this verse it self-evidently wasn't in order for the attention of either of these men to be drawn to it. The name, Erasmus, is to be found in the first line where it occurs in an anagram  as ersus ma.  The only other place where an anagram for this name can be found  is C.3 Q.64 line 1 so it cannot be discounted as a commonly found letter group. Nor can those that are found behind the header where the following uniquely occurring anagrams occur: LEGIS CANTIO CONTRA IN EPTOS CRITICOS  Angliciste (meaning a student of English- which Erasmus was)   LEGIS CANTIO CONTRA IN EPTOS CRITICOS  Notaricon or Notarikon (is a method of deriving a word, akin to the creation of an acronym, by using various but fixed order combinations of letters from each word. The word "notarikon" is related to the Latin word "notarius," meaning "short-hand writer." or contracted writing)   LEGIS CANTIO CONTRA IN EPTOS CRITICOS  Contraction Critic(s)    Now these words are found together with other more frequently found anagrams which are often  adjacent to these rare ones and this gives all of them extra poignancy. For example there is Contraction.in.Poet.Critics, Angliciste.Notaricon.Poets.Critic or the whole line can be completed to read So.Angliciste.Poet.Notaricon.Critic. The  term angliciste is very interesting since it can be readily applied to Erasmus. He had spent several periods in England, most notably from 1509 to 1514 and he maintained many of these contacts thoughout his life. However it also applies to a great deal of scholars in that era, especially those linked to Marguerite de Navarre whose territory included Nerac, 15 kilometres from Agen. Nerac, under Marguerite's rule, was a haven for radicals and those under stress. Erasmus was one of the guests to this region as were Calvin and the poet Rabelais.  And although this verse was self-evidently not aimed at Erasmus who died in 1536CE it may well refer to one or more of Erasmus' friends or students. Julius Scaliger on the other hand had no interest or liking for the English so the angliciste epithet can't apply to him. However, whatever way these rare anagrams are reconstructed there seems to be a meaningful coding purpose underpinning this verse, a conclusion that is strengthened by the anagrams found in the other lines of this verse. The first line saying Quos legent hosce versus mature censunto has anagrams which yield Erasmus chose-length consequent verse a true.sum. Consequent occurs as anagrams in a total of 5 quatrains while verse.a.true.sum is an adjacent sequence. The anagram that provides this sequence is only found in this verse as is a.true.sum. The second line is equally as intricate and relevant to the messages already shown. In its wording Profanum vulgus et inscium ne attrectato we find guest.in.music  where both guest and music are reasonably rare (four other occurrences each). Although other anagrams like proof occur more frequently (20x for proof) they form a powerful sequence that states Proof num-value guest in music. There is also an anagram for neumatics which occurs here and only one other verse. The word relates to the notation of incantations and chants using neumes as musical-value ciphers. Given that  this verse is meant to be an incantation and the previous line's hidden content alludes to a true sum there is a coherence given to the whole and it flowers into a beautiful coding scheme based on the structure of a verse and using ciphers based on the same principle as music in the 16th Century. There is one other anagram found in the 2nd line and it is is unique being found nowhere else in the prophecies. This word is Vulganum and it forms a sequence which uses most of line to say Proof.Neumatics.Unites.Vulganum (common Book of prayer) The evidence I have presented  above tells us that the key to Nostradamus work is somehow tied into two famous 16th C figures, Erasmus and Julius Scaliger, yet it was clearly not intended for them. Although it can be shown there is strong evidence that this verse is about a coding scheme there seems to be allusions to 16th C music as well as poetry. In addition the verse 's text highlights the religious aspect  of  Nostradamus intended cipher.  It is therefore highly possible that guests to the region of Nerac formed a sect (or group with common goals) into which Nostradamus had been initiated and his career path then determined by them. It is possible to trace these conclusions in many other powerful verses in the Prophecies. From these verses it becomes apparent that their purpose is to further the prospects of the Bourbon line and validate its claim to being part of the lineage of Christ. It is also apparent that this sect infiltrated the royalty of Europe including that of England and Scotland.
