The END OF THE WORLD is coming next year warns famed prophet

Michel de Nostredame, a famed 16th century French prophet and apothecary, warned nearly 500 years ago that humanity is facing global doom.

But the world will not end in one swift cataclysm, and conspiracists instead believe that Earth will suffer great natural disasters, deadly asteroids as well as the horror and destruction of World War 3 – all three of which have alarming contemporary resonance.

The bulk of these spectacular claims come from Nostradamus’ masterpiece, Les Propheties, published in 1555.

In this bizarre compendium of quatrain verses, the prophet warned that the skies will open to fire, the seas and oceans will flood the lands and powerful tremors will split the Earth open.

One passage in particular has been interpreted to warn against intense solar radiation lashing the Earth with intense heat, through a hole in ozone layer.

The passage reads: “Kings steal forests, the sky will open, the fields will be burned by heat.”

Elsewhere Nostradamus predicted deadly tremors will shake the planet to its core when Saturn, Jupiter and Mercury align in the Taurus constellation in the month of May.

Nostradamus wrote: “The trembling so hard in the month of May,

“Saturn, Capricorn, Jupiter, Mercury in Taurus:

“Venus also, Cancer, mars, in Virgo,

“Hail will fall larger than an egg.”
