Has Nostradamus been accurate in the past? Please give details.?

Question

I will report those with silly or short answers.

Answer 1

It depends on what you mean by accurate. Nostradamus' "success" at predicting things is because he made a lot of predictions and he made his predictions somewhat vague. Because his predictions were vague, a later event that somewhat matches this vague description could be said to be what he predicted. If you make a lot of vague predictions, some of them are bound to match a future event if interpreted in the right way.

Answer 2

Nostradamus predictions are really vague. They can be interpreted in anyway to fit an event. Also, there is no proof he predicted any World War or the 9/11 event. If the person above me who said the things about "metal birds crashing into towers" knew anything about nostradums, he would know that the statement was an email hoax after 9/11 and Nostradamus never said that in any of his quatrains.

Answer 3

Did Nostradamus predict that you will report silly or short answers? All in the interpretation of what he wrote.

Answer 4

Yeah he didn't say anything about metal birds or whatever. In the quantrain supposedly about 9/11, he mentioned something about "twin brothers would fall" and something about the number 45, which new york is at the the 45th degree latitude. Considering the large number of predictions he wrote, and how vague they were, and the human mind's unique ability of finding patterns in chaos, it would be a statistical improbability that some things he wrote didn't appear to really happen. Also the predictions were written in random order and had nothing attached to them that would indicate the timeline for any of this. Which supports my theory that he just really liked his hallucinogens.

Answer 5

Nope. it relatively is in common terms a calendar -- an arbitrary way of measuring time that became into standard by utilising the Mayans. There are basically some correlations between the Georgian Calendar it relatively is presently in use by utilising a super form of the international presently, and the Mayan Calendar. the superb clarification i've got heard is that that's like an odometer on a automobile -- it relatively is clicking persistently, and in 2012, it reaches a element the place diverse image voltaic measurements come at the same time. They measured long term sessions by utilising skill of an prolonged count form, wherein one 360-day 365 days (a "Tun"), consists of 18 x 20-day "months" ("Uinals"). Twenty of those Tuns is a Katun; 20 Katuns is a Baktun (virtually 4 hundred years); and 13 Baktuns provides as much as a "super Cycle" of a million,872,000 days, (5,2 hundred Tuns, or approximately 5,a hundred twenty five years). probably, on the iciness solstice of 2012, the noonday sunlight precisely conjuncts the crossing element of the sunlight's ecliptic with the galactic airplane, at the same time as additionally heavily conjuncting the precise the middle of the galaxy. it relatively is kinda cool -- yet hardly life-ending. to no longer hassle. I mean, in case you desire to circulate by utilising a calendar, it may make you experience greater acceptable to purchase a perpetual calendar :-)

Answer 6

Nostadamus's quantrains have only recently been looked at by some as "Proof" to his abilities of seeing the future..the thing is that he spoke in a codelike manner..it wasnt really clear, but many say that yes he has accurately predicted all sorts of things..from the world wars of the 20th century to the 9/11 attacks..look it up online and it will tell u how..it is pretty interesting when u look at how they put it together.

Answer 7

well personally i don't take him seriously because his predictions could laterally be anything. e.g. he says there will be a great war, there had been many great wars before him so the chances are there would be many more. i predict that humans will land on mars, that is inevitable given the circumstances and the human will to do it and be the first to do it. however there is one single prediction which i don't know if it is just an example of what has happened before him or he predicted. he said a soldier will rise from the ranks and become and emperor, but will fall the same way. this is exactly what happened to Napoleon Bonaparte.

Answer 8

As a matter in fact he has. Don´t be scared about his foreseeing of the end of time, because he said that that would be in the years 3046 or something. But, he has been acurrate and he did mention the falling of the twin towers, he said `A great bird of metal will crash to matching monuments´.
