Michel de Nostredame

Michel de Nostredame, commonly known as Nostradamus, was a 16th-century French seer and apothecary famous for his book of prophetic writings called "Les Propheties." His quatrains—short, cryptic four-line poems—are believed by some to predict future events. While his predictions are often vague and open to interpretation, Nostradamus remains a notable figure in the history of prophecy and astrology. His work has influenced popular culture and conspiracy theories, but scholars view his predictions with skepticism, considering them as poetic riddles rather than concrete forecasts.
