Nostradamus had some eerie predictions for 2024, including one that seems to be pretty accurate about King Charles III.
Nostradamus is famed for his predictions, and at the start of every year it's always exciting to see what the renowned astrologer from nearly 500 years ago had to say about what's in store for us.
He is renowned for foreseeing significant events such as 9/11 and economic crises, penned 942 prophecies for the future in his book Les Propheties in 1555.
Of course, most of the time the predictions don't hit the mark but this year he appeared to reference King Charles, and it seems like he was correct.
In a startling revelation, he hinted at potential turmoil within the Royal Family in 2024, suggesting that the King could be "driven out by force".
The passage in question reads: "King of the Isles driven out by force... replaced by one who will have no mark of a king."
Analysis by Mario Reading, per Metro, sheds light on this cryptic verse, interpreting it as follows: "Because they disapproved of his divorce, a man who later they considered unworthy; The People will force out the King of the islands; A man will replace who never expected to be king."
Nostradamus' accuracy in predicting royal events is well-documented. He forecasted the death of Queen Elizabeth II in 2022, accurately guessing her age at the time.
"Queen Elizabeth II will die, circa 22, at the age of around 96," the prophecy stated, according to analyst Mario Reading.
Furthermore, Nostradamus hinted at the possibility of King Charles abdicating, potentially paving the way for Prince Harry to ascend the throne, despite being fifth in line.
These predictions take on relevance as King Charles undergoes cancer treatment. He recently underwent a procedure for an enlarged prostate, during which doctors discovered the cancer. Buckingham Palace has not disclosed the specific type of cancer, only confirming its presence in the prostate.
Similarly, Princess Catherine continues her preventative cancer treatment, which began following abdominal surgery in January.
Given that Nostradamus appears to be on the right lines in regard to his predictions about the King, what else did he have to say about this year?
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."
Can't wait for that.
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.
Nobody ever predicts nice things, do they?
