CENTURIA X · QUATRAIN XLIX
The City in the Rock
Jardin du monde au pres du cite neufve,
Dans le chemin des montaignes cavees,
Sera saisi & plonge dans la Cuve,
Beuvant par force eaux soulfre envenimees.
Garden of the world close by the new city,
in the pathway of the hollowed mountains,
it will be seized and plunged into the Vat,
forced to drink waters envenomed with sulphur.
THE MASTER SAYS…
He says that the “New City” should be associated with the “New World,” that is, with America. Nostradamus shows a map of the United States. He explains that in the Rocky Mountains region, the US government has designed the construction of a secret city. This unusual city will be supplied with all necessary means of survival in case of the collapse of our civilization as a result of an unforeseen catastrophe. Secret vaults will be built into the rocky rocks, in which the most important documents of our civilization, made of super-strong materials, will be stored. The catastrophe will indeed occur when, at one of the powerful nuclear reactors, the water in the cooling system is being changed. It will not be properly purified, and one of the elements remaining in it will react with radioactive material. As a result, a super-powerful explosion will occur, followed by global radioactive contamination of a huge territory of your country. The mention of poisoned water in the quatrain is connected with radiation, not with the classical meaning of the word “poison.” Nostradamus did not use the term “atomic reactor”; he simply showed an image of this unit. Subconsciously, Brenda understood that it could only be a nuclear reactor. In fact, all this is demonstrated as if in layers. In one cross-section she saw the radioactive material itself, surrounded by the reactor body. From all sides it was illuminated with blue light, and all this was submerged in a huge tank of water. The nuclear reactor was located in close proximity to the city equipped in the rock. The bulk of the people living in the city were engaged in servicing this huge reactor. Nostradamus grinned and says that not everything that can be called new must necessarily be associated with New York. After all, New York is already quite old; moreover, what he had to observe in his “Magic Mirror” does not bode well for this city. Nostradamus promises to return to this topic again, but in another quatrain.
