July 3, 2004: Nostradamus and Our Future - John Hogue
John Hogue examines the enduring prophecies of Nostradamus, focusing on their relevance to contemporary global events and emerging geopolitical tensions. Drawing from original 16th-century texts, Hogue decodes quatrains that appear to reference climate change, international conflict, and sociopolitical upheaval in the early 21st century. He explains how Nostradamus embedded predictions within cryptic language and astrological references to evade persecution during his lifetime, while also making his forecasts adaptable across centuries. Hogue outlines specific verses tied to figures he believes may represent modern political leaders and nations, offering interpretations based on patterns he has tracked through decades of research. He explores potential timelines for economic instability, large-scale natural disasters, and regional wars, while also noting which prophecies have historically aligned with real-world events. Alongside the darker warnings, he highlights predictions of spiritual awakening and transformative global shifts. By placing Nostradamus within a broader context of predictive traditions and historical cycles, Hogue presents a nuanced view that blends skepticism with deep textual analysis. His work underscores the possibility that ancient foresight continues to echo through modern crises, encouraging a critical yet open approach to prophecy as a lens on the future.
