The great army will be chased out,
In one moment it will be needed by the King:
The faith promised from afar will be broken,
He will be seen naked in pitiful disorder.
This quatrain is in tune with the previous quatrain 10.30. It is the same – about expulsion naked. As it is described in the interpretation of quatrain 6.22, the French army on September 5, 1870 was surrounded and Napoleon III surrendered. In the coming days, by the uprising of the Paris Commune, he was deposed and deprived of everything. The last few years he lived with his family in England very modestly, since he had few means abroad.
Linkage with other quatrains: 10.30, 6.22, 3.14.
Decoding of the number 4.22. 400-22=378. If 1 is put at the end then by swapping we will get 1873 – the year of death.
Quatrain 6.22 Death of Napoleon III
Dedans la terre du grand temple celique,
Nepueu ? Londres par paix faincte meurtry,
La barque alors deuiendra scismatique,
Libertе faincte sera au cor & cry.
Within the land of the great heavenly temple,
Nephew murdered at London through feigned peace:
The bark will then become schismatic,
Sham liberty will be proclaimed everywhere.
The 2 line. The Franco-Prussian war began in 1870. As a result of unsuccessful military actions, the emperor was captured near Sedan on September 5, 1870. The situation complicated the uprising of the Paris Commune. The crowds of the people declared the emperor deposed. After deposition Napoleon III left for England on March 19, 1871 where he died after the kidney operation.
The 4 line. The crowds people of Paris gathered on September 4, 1870 at the city hall and proclaimed the republic. Without formalities a provisional government of defence people was elected.
The 3 line. Despite the fact that a considerable part of France was occupied by enemies, a political struggle was going on between different parties and groups.
Linkage with other quatrains: 4.22, 10.30.
Decoding of the number 6.22. If 1 to put in front and to consider as 1000, then 1000-622=378; by swapping these numbers we will get 873 – the year of death.
Quatrain 9.33 De Gaulle
Hercules Roy de Rome & d'Annemarc,
De Gaule trois Guion surnommе,
Trembler l'Itale & l'vnde de sainct Marc,
Premier sur tous Monarque renommе.
Hercules King of Rome and of 'Annemark,'
With the surname de Gaule triple the chief,
Italy and the one of Saint Mark to tremble,
First monarch renowned above all.
In this quatrain prophet clearly indicates the name without changing it – De Gaule. Charles de Gaulle (1890-1970) was a French public figure. From childhood he loved and was proud of his homeland, saw the meaning of life in the service for France and knew that he would have such opportunity. He began his career as a military man. He took part in the First World war, studied military affairs, taught at military schools. Before the World War II he was a brigadier general.
Does not everything listed in the first line represent the past reincarnations of de Gaulle? If the prophet could know the future, then we can assume that he knew the past lives of some souls.
The 2 line. De Gaulle took power in his hands for three times. In beginning of World War II he went to London and received there the support of prime minister Churchill. Unknown general on June 18, 1940 spoke on the radio of the BBC to the French people with a call for resistance. Then having emigrated to the African colony he led the French Resistance.
After the liberation of France in 1944, de Gaulle became the head of the government. Being on this post for a year and a half he tried to return the status of a great power for France. In 1946 he was dismissed from all affairs and was in opposition to the government.
The third time he takes power in his hands 12 years later, in 1958, when the country was in a serious political and economic crisis. In 1959 he was elected a President. He gives the people the Constitution, which is still valid. He pays much attention to scientific and technical development, strengthening of the army. With him France becomes a nuclear power. He pursues a policy of decolonization, breaks alliance with NATO, establishes contacts with the USSR. In 1969 having lost popularity among the people, he leaves the post of President.
In this quatrain there are numbers 33, coinciding with the number of the military unit, in which de Gaulle served twice.
Linkage with other quatrains: 10.79.
Decoding of number 9.33. If 3-1=2 and to consider as 2000, then 2000-93=1907. By swapping 0 and 7 we will get 1970 – the year of death.
Quatrain 10.79 Georges Pompidou
Les vieux chemins seront tous embellis,
L'on passera ? Memphis somentrеes,
Le grand Mercure d'Hercules fleur de lys
Faisant trembler terre mer, & contrеes.
The old roads will all be improved,
One will passed on them to the modern Memphis:
The great Mercury (will take) of Hercules lily flower,
Doing to tremble lands, sea and country.
The 3 line. The lily flower historically served as a symbol of power in France. In quatrain 9.33 Nostradamus calls de Gaulle Hercules. After him Georges Pompidou (1911-1974) having won the presidential election in 1969 took power (the lily flower). The prophet calls the new president Mercury (the God of Trade), apparently in connection with the economic rise of the country during his reign.
The 1 line. The president paid special attention to roads and transport. With him new high-speed modern roads were built and the old ones expanded. The first high-speed railway lines appeared. A new international airport was built.
The second and last line is not characteristic of Pompidou, so other interpretations are also possible for this prophecy.
