A new year begins and we have things to look forward to in the coming year most notably the election of our next president.
This will my only post for the day because I have been tasked with cooking the traditional family meal on this day…..cabbage, black-eye peas, corned beef and corn bread….
But what will this year bring to us and the world….well some notables that find predictions in Nostradamus’ quatrains has our year mapped out.
Nostradamus made some incredibly scary predictions for 2024, so you best buckle in for the year ahead!
I don’t know about you, but I’m starting to wonder why those predicting the future can never say anything nice… You never see any predictions for good news, do you?
With that being said, I’m deeply sorry to say that Nostradamus, the renowned astrologer who walked the earth nearly 500 years ago, made some startling claims for 2024.
So what has 2024 apparently got in store?
Looking into the future, another quatrain warns: “The dry earth will grow more parched, and there will be great floods,” while cautioning of a “very great famine through pestiferous wave.”
Sounds fun.
Nostradamus also seems to have alluded to international tensions, particularly with China, in a quatrain envisioning “combat and naval battle,” and a “Red adversary becoming pale with fear / Putting the great Ocean in dread.”
Speculation suggests the “red adversary” refers to communist China, pointing to a potential maritime confrontation.
In a more recent interpretation by Nostradamus commentator Mario Reading, attention is drawn to a quatrain referring to the “King of the Isles,” supposedly alluding to the current British monarchy.
The reading suggests a scenario where King Charles III is forced to abdicate due to “persistent attacks on both himself and his second wife,” with Prince Harry – characterized as having “no mark of a king” – ascending to the throne, per the Mirror.
While that might sound horrible to some, you can’t deny that it would make for an incredible season of The Crown.
If that hasn’t filled your boots, how about some predictions from the blind mystic Baba Vanga?
For starters, she claimed Russian President Vladimir Putin will meet his end at the hands of an assassination, and also that Europe will be plagued by an influx of terror attacks.
Not only this, but if the seer who passed away in 1996 is correct, then we have a major economic crisis on the horizon and there will be attacks carried out with biological weapons.
It’s all a bit bleak, isn’t it?

My take….’red adversary’….if this was 30 years ago it would mean USSR…..if it were 250 years ago it would mean the Brits in their red uniforms or the American Native tribes…..my point is that we can read whatever we want into these vague ‘scriptures’
Strange stuff, huh?
That is my post for this first day of yet another year….
I hope everyone has a wonderful day….enjoy the food, family, fun and football and get ready for a year that could be a new beginning or the bitter end.
Happy New Year my friends.

I agree, they never predict anything happy! Best ignored, I reckon.
I hope 2024 works out the way you want it to, old friend.
Best wishes, Pete.
Especially old Nossie…..chuq

Have a great day chuq
It seems like whether the mystics predict doom and gloom or not, we seem to get our share of it, don’t we. Well now, I myself am a psychic so I am going to make a prediction right now that you can take to the bank and here it is…..2024 is going to be 2023 on steroids. Worse storms and more of them, more coastal erosion, a warmer beginning to a winter that will become a polar express by mid january and February with some temperatures topping 130 degrees below ….a political crisis in the Russian government ….another major volcanic eruption on the ring of fire —fire, flood and tornados all across the U.S., —-more mass shootings —more governmental division —a slowing of inflation giving people false security followed by another spike in inflation that will infuriate some and impoverish others —more incidences of recalled food products for safety and health reasons —-and as big surprise in the presidential candidate roundup. —
Anyone can be as vague as Nosie…..there is no hidden talent there. chuq
I, of course, have great talents.. mark my words and keep them for future reference and be amazed. LOL. The good thing about being a prophet is that people tend to have short memories and so forget the things that you have said.
Nostra was no more prophet than I am chuq
Yeah, the quatrains are so vague that if you are clever enough, you can apply them to any time in history…and clearly the people who write this stuff are clever enough to get paid for writing the BS, so who am I to bash them. And I already know it’s BS…there is no way the Royal Family will let Harry ascend the throne…are you kidding me? Happy New Year!
Happy New Year to you as well chuq
Don’t need a fortune teller to warn us of a grim future ahead. I see no possibility to be optimistic.
Me either chuq
