Nostradamus was an apothecary and prophet of the sixteenth century who wrote prophecies based on his unique version of astrology that are still applied to events today. Altogether, he is credited with over six thousand prophecies, many with similar language to other seers and historical records and holy books.

Most of his predictions can be associated with disasters, both natural and supernatural, such as homicides, earthquakes, volcanoes, war, floods, etc. It is claimed that he prophesied the French Revolution, the world wars, Adolf Hitler, and even the terrorist attacks on the Twin Towers on Sept. 11, 2001

The History Channel cried when 'wolf' when it aired its show, NOSTRADAMUS: 2012, on January 4, 2009. The show began on a very dire note with implications that Nostradamus and ancient messages predicted the 'end of the world' in 2012. Images of devastation, floods, disease, wars, environmental disasters and social chaos inundated the screen. If you only watched the first 90 minutes, my guess is you may have been convinced that the "End Times" are upon us and that there is little hope for the survival of the species.

Are the Nostradamus 2012 predictions really true?

These predictions you have heard so much about already, are understandably questionable as to whether they could become factual events. There are a lot of people who give great credence to what this ancient Rosicrucian had to say about the future. It certainly seems like you should be alarmed based on the predictions and prophecies coming at you from all sides.Yet, you might be extremely astute in wondering if Nostradamus' 2012 prophecies are going to come true.
