Who was Nostradamus?
Nostradamus is a controversial figure. His many enthusiasts, as well as the popular
press, credit him with predicting numerous major world events. Interest in his work
is still considerable, especially in the media and in popular culture. By contrast,
most academic scholars maintain that the associations made between world events and
Nostradamus‘ quatrains are largely the result of misinterpretations or
mistranslations (sometimes deliberate) or else are so tenuous as to render them
useless as evidence of any genuine predictive power.
In addition to the belief that some historical figures were endowed with a
predisposition to tarot readings readings experiences, some psychic abilities were thought to be
available to everyone on occasion. For example, the belief in prophetic dreams was
common and persistent in many ancient cultures.
