Michel de Nostrdam, better known by the name of Nostradamus, is an extremely controversial person when it comes to his predictions. Being primarily an alchemist and a pharmacist, he became famous no longer in these areas, but in the prophecies that he wrote in the middle of the 16th century.
It is no secret that many of the facts described by him about the future came true: the assassination of the Kennedy brothers, World War II, Nazism, along with the reign of Adolf Hitler, etc.
However, if you dig a little deeper, it becomes completely clear that the veracity of his predictions largely depends on the interpretation of his records. Some formulations are rather vague and, if desired, they can be attracted to certain events that took place hundreds of years after his death.
We will not understand this and discuss whether it is worth believing the words of Nostradamus, but simply consider 10 things that, in his opinion, will happen in 2019. Maybe in some ways he is right.
10. The new universal language
According to legend, before the construction of the Tower of Babel, all people spoke the same language, and according to Nostradamus, this will happen again. He prophesies the emergence of a mechanism that will fundamentally change people's lives and lead to the emergence of a universal language.
Some believe that this mechanism is the Internet, which may pass for the truth, but the emergence of a universal language this year seems fantastic.
9. Understanding people and animals
Another prediction that is unlikely to come true: despite the fact that work in this direction is underway, there can be no talk of full-fledged communication between a person and an animal.
Although, this item is from the category of those whose meaning depends on the interpretation. The phrase “Pigs will become a brother to a man” is interpreted by some in the sense that a person will simply become better with animals. The popularity of vegetarianism is most welcome here.
According to another interpretation, it is still meant the invention of technology that will allow us to communicate with each other.
8. Hurricanes in America
But this, unfortunately, is quite likely, since the United States has repeatedly suffered from such disasters. Nostradamus believed that in 2019 the strongest hurricanes that scientists would attribute to the first category would cause great damage to different parts of the country, so people should be prepared.
The infamous Hurricane Katrina killed nearly 2,000 Americans in 2005 and caused an estimated $ 125 billion worth of damage.
There is also information that in addition to US hurricanes, earthquakes are also expected that will occur somewhere between California and Vancouver in Canada.
7. Wars motivated by extremism
Another prophecy that could come true. Although, in fact, conflicts on this basis have been arising for several years.
The growing tension may well result in an open conflict, which, unfortunately, will certainly be armed.
6. Science will extend the lives of people
We will pass from the negative to the positive, although you and I will not succeed in living for hundreds of years. According to available information, those born in 2019 will be able to live 200 (or even more) years, so if you plan to have a baby before the end of the year, your happiness if the prediction turns out to be true.
Research and experiments to increase life expectancy have been ongoing for a long time and scientists are waiting for a breakthrough in this area. Why doesn't he happen this year?
5. Attacks of terrorists
As in the case of terrorism wars, there are all the prerequisites for this to happen. Some particularly zealous fans of the works of Nostradamus suggest that a repeat of September 11 may happen this year, but I do not want to believe in this.
Let the good, positive predictions come true better, but here it is better for Nostradamus to make mistakes.
4. The fall of the asteroid
Regarding this, Nostradamus wrote that “the moment of great violence will coincide with the appearance of a comet in the sky,” therefore, people attach several meanings to this prediction.
Some believe that in addition to the fall of the meteorite (as if that weren’t enough), a war may begin using weapons of mass destruction, which will further exacerbate the consequences of the disaster.
3. Floods in Europe
If you believe the sources, then nature will be merciful in 2019, not only to the United States, but also to European countries. Great Britain, Czech Republic, Italy and Hungary are the most dangerous places.
Those who firmly believe in the predictions of Nostradamus, it is better not to risk it and postpone the trip to these countries, if such was planned this year.
According to statistics, in recent years, most floods occurred in China and in Asia as a whole, followed by the United States. Given in deciphering the prophecy of countries such disasters are rare.
2. Climate change
Records of the scientist say that this year there will be an unusual parade of planets, which will lead to strong climatic changes on the planet.
In fact, this is what will happen: the Sun will take a position opposite the constellation of Aquarius, entering the constellation Leo. This happens every 20 years, so at first glance there is nothing to fear, however, in 2019, the Solar system will go through the galactic axis, which can fundamentally change the situation.
Unlike the parade of planets, this happens once every 26,000 years, and according to Nostradamus it will have a strong effect on the Earth’s magnetic field. Because of this, the temperature will begin to increase sharply, water bodies will dry out, and glaciers will melt.
1. World War III
Indeed, everyone can take part in this war: according to the decrypted data, Russia or China may appear on one side of the barricades, and the USA or Europe on the other.
Moreover, the conflict will be protracted: the war will last 27 years, so the number of victims is hard to imagine, especially given the armament of these countries.
The result of the war should be a weakening of the position of the West, but given the duration, we can safely say that the whole world will weaken.
