ARE COVID-19/CORONAVIRUS PROPHECIES REAL?

The coronavirus appeared suddenly, completely out of the blues; and is ravaging the world. As of the last statistical count, over 300,000 have been infected and more than 20,000 have been killed; and there seems to be no end in sight for the pandemic.

      Social media has been awash with stories, prophecies, and conspiracy theories related to COVID-19. However, the most interesting of all are the prophecies related to the pandemic. The most interesting ones are related to three individuals, namely, Michel de Nostradame a.k.a Nostradamus; Dean Koontz, and Sylvia Brown. Let’s look at what they had to say and, what people are saying, starting with Nostradamus.

      Michel de Nostradame a.k.a Nostradamus was a 16th-century scientist and philosopher who made predictions about the future in four-lined poems called “quatrains” around 1555 and 1556. Check out these two amongst many, which seem to be related to the COVID-19 pandemic and, tell me what you think of them.

      The first goes like this –

      “From the vain enterprise honour and undue complaints,

        Boats tossed about among the Latins, cold, hunger, waves,

        Not far from the Tiber the land stained with blood,

        And diverse plagues will be upon mankind.”

According to prophecy aficionados, the interpretation of this cryptic poem is as follows -

Line 1: From the vain enterprise honour and undue complaints – This refers to the alleged artificial creation of the virus and, the stupidity of the reality.

Line 2-4:         Boats tossed about among the Latins, cold, hunger, waves,

                        Not far from the Tiber the land stained with blood,

                       And diverse plagues will be upon mankind.   

This refers to the people of the Mediterranean, especially Italy. The River Tiber runs through Rome and Italy and, the way the disease has ravaged the region is a classic example of a plague.

So what do you think?

       The second Nostradamus prophecy goes like this –

        “The sloping park, great calamity,

          Through the lands of the West and Lombardy,

          The fire in the ship, plague, and captivity,       

           Mercury in Sagittarius, Saturn fading.”

     Prophecy aficionados claim that the correct interpretation of this cryptic poem is as follows –

Line 1: The sloping park, great calamity, - According to reports, Hankou Jiangtan Park in Wuhan, actually slopes down to the river and, people can walk into the water. The supposed accidental release of an alleged bio-weapon is the supposed great calamity.

Line 2: Through the lands of the West and Lombardy – Everyone knows that the West is America, Europe, Australasia and Lombardy is in Italy.

Line 3:  The fire in the ship, plague, and captivity, - Ships are symbols of commerce and wealth. Fire in the ships symbolizes the destruction of these, for example, stock price plunges and obstruction of global trade and activity. Plague is the coronavirus and, captivity is the social and physical lockdown of countries and cities.    

Line 4:  Mercury in Sagittarius, Saturn fading. – According to astrology freaks, this line supposedly refers to a period of waning?...

So what do you think? 

Prophecy freaks are falling over themselves trying to predict the pandemic's rise and fall

       The second supposed prophecy we will look at is that of Dean Koontz who published a work of fiction in 1981, titled, “The Eyes of Darkness”. In Koontz’s novel, the Chinese had an ultra-secret bio-weapons manufacturing laboratory in Wuhan. It was there that a deadly virus called Wuhan-400 was created. So do you think Koontz saw into the future when he wrote that novel?

       The last prophecy we’ll be looking at (although there are many, many more), is that of late American psychic, Sylvia Brown. Brown published a novel in 2008 titled “End of Days”. Here is an excerpt from the novel which people are claiming proves that she saw into the future – “In around 2020 a severe pneumonia-like illness will spread throughout the globe, attacking the lungs and bronchial tubes and resisting all treatments. Almost more baffling than the illness itself will be the fact that it will suddenly vanish as quickly as it arrived, attack ten years later, and then disappear completely.”
