CENTURIA V · QUATRAIN LXXV
The Twisted Cross
Montera haut sur le bien plus a dextre,
Demourra assis sur la Pierre quarree:
Vers le midi pose a la fenestre,
Baston tortu en main, bouche serree.
He will rise high upon the good, more to the right,
will remain seated on the square Stone:
toward the south, placed at the window,
a twisted staff in hand, mouth sealed.
THE MASTER SAYS…
Nostradamus reports that the person in question will live in the United States. He will be very rich, and his desires will be fulfilled in the blink of an eye. This person will be known mainly for his enormous wealth, but his real mission will be secret. Possessed by fanatical ideas, he will collaborate with the American Nazi Party and the Ku Klux Klan. That is why the prophecy features a bent object, symbolizing in this case the burning crosses of the Ku Klux Klan and the swastika of the Nazi Party. The main goal of the rich fanatic will be the overthrow of the American government. The most dangerous thing is that he will act under the guise of an ordinary politician, and therefore it will be quite difficult to reveal his true intentions. Nevertheless, this will not prevent him from creating a solid anti-government coalition, which will be at the zenith of its activity by the time of the Antichrist’s arrival. Only his associates know his true name. The rest of the people will be completely unaware, because he is resourceful and will act very cautiously. “Sitting on a square stone” means that he will, as it were, sit on a throne in the center of his organization. In the state apparatus, he will be represented by a figurehead — a puppet fully controlled by him. “His lips will be sealed” emphasizes the secrecy of his organization. “Toward the South” means his adherence to the ideas of racism that prevailed in the South of your country in the past. By the way, it is in the South, where racism was traditionally imposed, that the first manifestation of the new organization’s activity will begin. Nostradamus hopes that his message to you has arrived in time. You should cast aside prejudices and finally understand how real his warnings are about impending dangers, which, if desired, could be prevented.
