     The third climate under Aries realized

     The year one thousand seven hundred twenty and seven in October

     The King of Iran by those of Egypt shall be captured

     Conflict, death, perdition, great shame for the cross

 

COMMENT: Nostradamus often used the year of 325 AD ( the Ecumenical Council of Nicea) as the liturgical reference for a significant event, symbolizing the Divine Design upon that event. Thus here the year of 1700 is actually 1700 + 325 or 2025AD. Therefore, the above-mentioned quatrain cna be understood as follows:

 

     One third of the battles still remains

     On October 27th of 2025 AD

     Those of Orient through the Lunar moral courage

     On the year of 1700 shall embark great advance

     Shall subdue most Northern corner

 

COMMENT: This is the continuation of Quatrain II.48. Orient is China and Lunar here again means Muslim or Eastern countries. Nostradamus often used 325AD ( Nicean Council ) as the liturgical reference. Thus 1700 actually meant 2025AD. Northern here means Russia.

The flood shall bury millions of people who live in literally underneath the river.

 

IV.97   A Spanish pope at the end of the War.

 

     L'an que Mercure, Mars, Venus retrograde
