Reality is a myth in the making. Science measures all aspects of natural and supernatural philosophies and records these emperical data sets as reality.
What i'm am writing this moment is a record in time of my thoughts and understanding on the Quatrains of the 15th Century prophet Nostradamus.I doubt that i will be burnt at the stake by some imperialist religious movement for casting my thoughts.
These written words were but a thought floating in the ethereal metaphysical realm of the great unknown but now they are reality. You are a part of my thought as you read this.
However for the seer Nostradamus who was working with pagan oracles in the 15th century to see events unfolding from the eyes of other humans was taboo and could put a person very life at risk. The inquisition was on and such heresy was outlawed.
So the seer, decides to encrypt his oracular visions in order to protect himself from the religious dogmas of the inquisitors.
How does he do it?
Poetry as always been a mythical and mystical form of expression. It is ear candy but for those who enjoy meditating on the verses of poetry, there is often depth and breadth and hidden meanings in the poets words.
Such were the Quatrains of Nostradamus. He wrote his enigmatic oracular visions in poetic verses of four lines each. And he wrote, and wrote, and wrote more until there were massive volumes of these quatrains.
In a letter to his son Cesar he writes:
I really did not want to write the documentations down concerning the future,
mainly because of the insults i will earn. The present form of governing
parties, religion will undergo tremendous changes in the future.............this
is the reason why i mystified the real sense of my quatrains.
The quatrains are obscure and are open to debate as each person who reads a quatrain as freedom to interpret the verses whichever way they see fit.
Some scholars have gone to great lengths to decipher the meaning of these books of prophecy written by a seer living at the end of the dark ages.
Have the scholars of Nostradamus prophecy managed to come up with a Rosetta Stone type mindset to deciphering the quatrains. If they did then it wasn't novelty to the author of the quatrains. He may have prophecied the day when humans would come to understand what he was seeing through his oracle as he stated that it would take at least 500 years for is methods or quatrains to be truly understood.
In quatrain 94 of Century 3 Nostradamus writes:
For a long time my work was not understood, nor accepted, but rather
ignored.
But in 500 years from my time on Earth, in that new Millenium,
A great clarity will come about,
And through my legacy, mankind's happiness will prevail.
So from a man of prophecy who served the royals of his time, from a man who had mastered the occult methods of the pagans, from a man who's mind could see through the eyes of many who were yet to be, from a man who could transcend time through some form of astral projection we get a guide or a means to understand and perhaps even alter the present reality.
Part of Nostradamus' life mission, as seen in his letter to his son, and from his Century III/ Quatrain 94 verse, was to tell us how to get through the waves created by mankind and by nature itself.
Passionate humans create always. Passionate and charismatic humans lead the masses by convincing the masses that their scheme or ideology is what humans need. More often than not the most passionate humans are the sickest humans and creation or reality as we know it is what we've created.
But that's only true to an extent. Man creates under time constraints always a reformist person envisions a better paradigm and some of these reformist have the qualities necessary to bring about change. Humanity goes through it's cycles, with these perpetual changing of the guards.
Nature on the other hand doesn't give a hoot about humanity. Or i should say that nature relative to the creative process doesn't give a hoot about the physical aspect of humanity.
When nature reaches zeniths of it's creation cycles humans most bend or suffer the chaos that comes from the stresses of resistance.
It is the law of the Cosmic Clock.
