Nostradamus is back at it again with his predictions which could mean that we’re in for a startling year.
After a 7.5 magnitude earthquake hit Ishikawa in Japan, some have commented that this was on the list of the seer’s predictions for 2024.
But what does this mean? Well, we could be in for a wild ride if the rest also come true.
Who was Nostradamus?
Nostradamus was a French astrologer who was born in 1503 and died in 1566.

Named Michel de Nostredame, he was a 16th century professional who wrote Les Propheties, which depicted his predictions in the form of poems.
It contained 942 predictions at the time of its publication in 1555 and was sneakily written in a mixture of word order in Latin, Provencal, Italian and Greek to avoid the Church’s wrath.

Who is ‘Living Nostradamus’ and what does he think?
Not only has Nostradamus predicted a lot of events which came true, so did Athos Salomé, who has been dubbed the ‘living Nostradamus’ as he’s alive and well, but also pretty good at depicting world events.
According to the Daily Star, Salomé went on to predict that a coronal mass ejection from the Sun would lead darkness around Earth, and the solar eclipse in April.

He also predicted an explosion of magnetic material and plasma, which was nearly right.
Scientists found a big solar storm on 22 March that did go on to reach Earth days later, but it didn’t luckily disrupt our networks.
Perhaps there will be one in the future instead and he’s just a few months off?
