Vitaliy Khozyashev, a researcher in Perm, gives concrete dates to the soothsayer's prophecies

Eight years ago,  Khozyashev learned that his predecessors had made little progress interpreting Nostradamus. Scholars and enthusiasts alike had no clue, he said, except for explicit passages such as: "... extraordinary changes in rapid succession thereafter, reversals of kingdoms and mighty earthquakes, with the increase of the new Babylon, the miserable daughter, augmented by the abomination of the first Holocaust, and it will last no less than 73 years and 7 months." According to popular opinion, Nostradamus was hinting at the fall of the Bolshevik system after the October Revolution. 

Nostradamus' prophecies lead to many interpretations, especially when it comes to future events. But Nostradamus made no references to time, which makes using his verses for prognoses impossible. Khozyashev decided he would unravel the uncertainty. Today, he thinks that he has discovered the true meaning to Nostradamus' verses. 

Astrologist and  Kabbalah scholar

Although Nostradamus worked as a doctor in his youth, he was also taken by astrology and the  Kabbalah. His Jewish grandfathers had helped him to assimilate these sciences. Consequently, Nostradamus had a solid understanding of the stars and planets and also possessed the scientific and encryption skills peculiar to the  Kabbalah. He couldn't resist putting his knowledge to use. 

"Nostradamus wrote that the '...movement of the stars announces future events,'"  Khozyashev said. "The verses aren't numbered according to centuries and quatrains just for the fun of it. Their digits contain a code."

By applying mathematics and numerology,  Khozyashev said that Nostradamus used his own astrological calender marking the movements of the planets by month and year. Nostradamus then numbered his quatrains referring to the calendar. As a result, the quatrains coincide with specific dates and zodiac signs. However, Nostradamus laid the verses out ordinarily. This is their code. 

Key to the calendar

Khozyashev proceeded to transfer Nostradamus' verses into his calendar. As a starting point, he used a prognosis that came true when the prophet was still alive: 

"The young lion will overcome the older one,
On the field of combat in a single battle;
He will pierce his eyes through a golden cage,
Two wounds made one, then he dies a cruel death." 
(Century 1, Quatrain 35)

In July 1559, King Henry II fell off his horse at a jousting tournament.  Khozyashev used this date to arrange over 1,000 Nostradamus quatrains, having placed them according to their Zodiac sign.  Khozyashev said that he now knows the date for each quatrain. 

It took  Khozyashev 8 years to put the timetable together. But it appears that his work has paid off. Numerous historical events actually coincide with  Khozyashev's timetable. 

Khozyashev pointed to the spot on the timetable representing July 1918: 

"In place of the bride the daughters slaughtered, 
Murder with great error no survivor to be: 
Within the well vestals inundated, 
The bride extinguished by a drink of Aconite."
 (Quatrain 71 from Century 4)

Khozyashev believes that Nostradamus was referring to the deaths of the Russian Tsar Nicholas  II's family in July 1918. He also pointed out the date June 1941 — Germany's invasion of the Soviet Union:

"Mars and the sceptre (of Jupiter) will meet in conjunction, A calamitous war under Cancer..."
 (Century 6, Quatrain 24)

Khozyashev also stressed a more recent date: 

"His last hand (powers) by  Alus bloody,
He will be unable to protect himself by sea:
Between two rivers he fears the military hand,
The black and irate one will be made repentant."
 (Century 6, Quatrain 33)

Khozyashev said that Nostradamus was referring to  Sadam Hussein.  Alus was Osama Bin Laden. The two rivers were the Tigris and Euphrates. 

"Nostradamus predicted the most shattering events for mankind,"  Khozyashev said. "I checked. He talks about 9/11 in the U.S. and the Ribbentrop-Molotov Pact."

"Well, what did the soothsayer say about the tsunamis in Southeastern Asia?" I asked. "That was a pretty startling event that took the lives of hundreds of thousands of people."

"What do mean? Of course he predicted it!"  Khozyashev said jumping up from his seat and pointing to the timetable. "This is December 2004: '...there will be such a great sudden flood.'" (Century 8, Quatrain 16).
