Nostradamus C4 Q100: Quatreins that focus on Prophet's dreams of war fire and floods.
Copyright: Allan Webber, December 2015

In verses C4 Q97 and C4 Q98 Nostradamus text allows astronomic dating solutions to evolve out of a combination of the text as a classical star reference, the poetic structure and the content of the anagrams.

In the current verse there is once more a readable astronomic setting.

The celestial fire is the Sun and the royal edifice is the house of Leo in the Zodiac. The light of Mars goes out when that planet is totally covered by another.

The content of the anagrams and the structure of the sounds again allow the date to be precisely determined using Agrippa's scheme. The sound of the verse is of the voice since there is little evidence of internal rhyme. The letter 'r' is dominant and this is one of the sharp sounds that Agrippa alludes to in his musical notation for Mars. These all confirm that the planet Mars is the essential ingredient in setting the date.

Extra Info:

In the verse there  a high usage of double letter sounds such as 'll' and 'rr' which is typical of verses about the male-female relationship in the Jesus-lineage myth. (see C.IV Q.94). (

But there is another pattern present and it is much the same as that used in C.IV Q.98. since they both over-use sounds from the Venus collection "ou ux us uz uc ue eu oiol loilli ly lu ul sl unnu am ma muommo ns sn en an is ys iz ez") and it makes Venus the logical planet for obscuring the light of Mars when they and the Sun are in Leo.

In the 850 year period from 1500 to 2150CE there is only one tiny window where this setting is valid and that occurred in 1891 at about 8.30am on the 2nd of August. At that time the Sun was very close to the star called Regulus one of whose meanings is that of a Royal Prince or Ruler.

One war that started seven months after the foregoing date was in the Wild West of the USA (See Johnson County War for more). The last line of text implies that a bloodline with links to French Kings is involved in this event and becomes the fount from which the last war of this century springs.

The leading anagrams delivering a clearer dimension to this verse include illumant (nt la lumi), quatrain (ira Quant), filamented (nt de malefi), deifical (al edific), pieces (ice Sep), competes, (ce Sept mo), Iraq (ira Q) wars (ux au R), rearmed (re de Mar), female (e malef) , delay (yal ed).
