CENTURIA II · QUATRAIN XLVIII — READING A
The Sphere of Light
La grand copie qui passera les monts,
Saturne en l'Arc tournant du poisson Mars:
Venins caches soubs testes de saulmons,
Leur chef pendu a fil de polemars.
The great host which will pass the mountains,
Saturn in the Bow, Mars turning from the Fish:
venoms hidden under the heads of salmon,
their chief hanged by the thread of polemars.
THE MASTER SAYS…
Nostradamus says the prophecy will come true in December 1986. He says the quatrain speaks of several things. An attempt at contact will be made from the stars. A large screen of light will appear in the sky, and strange phenomena will be observed in it, which you will misinterpret. Here Nostradamus implies an element of time. He gives an exact date. Astronomers have mathematically calculated the asymmetry in planetary motion and could easily have erred when trying to explain an event that took place many centuries ago. Such calculations can give a spread in time of at least 20–30 years, which is very significant in this case. The phrase “poison hidden under the head of the salmon” is connected with the destructive changes in Earth’s atmosphere occurring in your time. The “Great Army” crossing the mountains refers to bright light effects that will result from attempts at contact from the stars, which, if successful, will bring true enlightenment to many people. Nostradamus gives the date: December 22, 1986, and asks you to re-read the place of correct translation that he gave earlier. In fact, it will be a sphere of light in which you will be able to observe the inhabitants of other planets. Unfortunately, you will again mistakenly consider it an inexplicable natural phenomenon.
