Yes, it is the time when the prophecies of Nostradamus and their often accurate predictions. When we talk about “serious” predictions, one can’t help but think of someone who has determined the course of history with his visions for almost 500 years.
The thing is that in a context that is complex in several ways, a question inevitably arises: What will the upcoming year 2026 have in store for us?
What are the prophecies of Nostradamus and which are the most famous?
“Here rest the remains of the most famous Michel de Nostradamus, the only man who, in the opinion of all mortals, is worthy to write with an almost divine pen about the future of the world under the influence of the stars.”“.
This is what it says – in Latin – in the epitaph on the grave of the doctor, philosopher, mathematician, alchemist and astrologer Nostradamus, the man who through his writings Financial support? some of them most notable episodes of world history.
For some he is a great seer, for others a great deceiver, as his exegetes assure us of his Lent a thousand prophecies expanded the Assassination of John F. Kennedythe rise to power of Adolf Hitler, warsThe Atomic bombs And major natural disasters.
Nostradamus is believed to have driven the historical events of the 20th century almost 500 years earlier.
Nostradamus wrote Quatrainthat is, short generic verses (very broad in meaning) of four lines in which he anticipated the events.
Although some quatrains are somewhat clearer, the vast majority are cryptic enough to allow interpretation several readings and in this way they can be adapted to different episodes.
This is what his followers assure: predicted the death of John Paul I in 1978 just 33 days after taking office, an episode always surrounded by intrigue. Let’s look at the quatrain:
“The elector’s elected pope is mocked, suddenly often excited, willing and shy. For too good and sweet to die provoked, fear oppresses the night of his leading death.” (Centuria X, quatrain XII).
What are Nostradamus’ prophecies for 2026?
As we expected, Nostradamus’s writings are divided into groups of 100 stanzas or centuries. Considering that next year will be the 26th of this century, the 26 stanzas of his “Centuries” They can be viewed as her annual predictions. Let’s see.
1- “The great man will be struck down by lightning one day”
According to the website, this is the case Grunge.comannounces verse 26 of the First Century. In this case, “lightning” could be interpreted as a harbinger of murder; and “big man” could refer to a well-known male public figure.
2- “Plague in Tuscany”
Verse 26 of the 1st century ends with a reference to a “plague in Tuscany,” as the portal points out. This puts us on alert, especially because Italy was the first country outside Asia where Covid was first detected.
And there is also the “Tuscany virus”, a virus that is spreading and expanding its area of activity.

3- “The big swarm of bees will appear…at night the ambush”
Bees are often associated with political symbolism. Napoleon, for example, adopted the bee as his imperial emblem centuries after Nostradamus. And stanza 26 of the IV century refers to her.
In this case they ask history.co.ukwhether this could mean that high-profile – and highly controversial – political figures like Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin could win big victories in 2026.
4- “For the favor that the city will show… Ticino will overflow with blood”
Second century verse 26 is read as a warning in times of war. After supporting a loser in battle, “Ticino will overflow / With blood, fire, deaths, drowned by the sharp blow”says the quatrain.
According to the clairvoyant’s interpreters, this is the canton of Ticino – the southernmost of Switzerland, bordering Italy, and this could be a warning of caution this year.

They were the ones who passed on their knowledge about it the stars and magic.
Shortly afterwards in full length Renaissance boomtraveled to what is now Italy between 1547 and 1549.
From 1555, Nostradamus began writing his predictions in the form of Quatrain. Since each book contained exactly one hundred of these four-verse combinations, he named them centuries or centuries.
Nostradamus was under the protection of Catherine de Medici.
At that time, the art of magic was so naturalized that no one was interested in these texts that foreshadowed the future.
Nostradamus had the protection of Catherine de Medici – first queen consort of France and then regent – who, fascinated by his talent, gave him a position at court as a fortune teller, advisor and doctor. He died in 1566at the age of 63.
Was he really wise or completely crazy? The truth is that his name has endured for five centuries and continues to evoke unknowns and expectations with each new year or event that shakes the world.
