Nostradamus C8 Q04: Radiation affects European airports on dates named in N's hidden calendar.
Copyright: Allan Webber, December 2015

This verse is one of several where Nostradamus uses the image of fire from the sky striking the earth as markers for verses containing the goals for his prophecies.

This theme is developed in more detail in my paper called Apophis.

The aspect delivered by this particular verse is the agent of change

Bbut it also provides support for the radiation hazards destined to affect airports later in this century. The biological impact to be expected is that from arsenides acting on amino radicles.

In the text the metaphors appropriately mirror the concepts raised in the anagrams. The cock, a land based bird, will become dominant while the eagle weakens reflects the realities of travel when airlines are under threat.

'The  leech omens' found in the anagrams also given relevance by the Norse Edda stories of the great flood and the threat it brings. This enhances the basis for placing this verse's sfuture story in the era of the late 21st century.
