THE MYSTERIOUS LANGUAGE OF PROPHECY — Next to Leonardo da Vinci, Nostradamus is the most enigmatic genius of the Renaissance. He had a radical, holistic approach to medicine. Unlike other physicians of the day, Nostradamus didn’t bleed his patients. He realized health was connected to proper diet, fresh air, and hygiene. He successfully treated “Black Death” (bubonic plague) through the use of rose hips, which we now know are rich in vitamin C.
Nostradamus also possessed the mysterious gift of prophecy. His uncanny ability to foresee future events attracted the attention of Queen Catherine de’ Medici of France, who summoned him to court in 1555.
Catherine de’ Medici was the daughter of the legendary Lorenzo de’ Medici of Florence. Known as “Lorenzo the Magnificent,” he’d headed the wealthiest banking system in Europe. Lorenzo’s patronage of artists like Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and Rafael contributed immensely to the splendor of the Renaissance.
Officially, Nostradamus served as a physician, scientist, and astrologer to the Court of King Henri II and Queen Catherine de’ Medici. Behind the scenes, Nostradamus was the Queen’s confidant and personal adviser.
On parchment, Henri and Catherine were the ultimate power couple. She loved his huge army, and he couldn’t resist her deep bank account. Yet despite her wealth and that she bore Henri eleven children, Catherine de’ Medici knew her position and that of her children was not secure.
The Queen’s problem was Henri’s mistress, the cunning Diane de Poitiers. Diane and Henri became lovers when he was a 15-year-old prince and she was a classy 35-year-old aristocrat. Diane had been manipulating Henri ever since to advance her family’s wealth and power. Diane flaunted her position with Henri, appearing with him publicly and acting as if she and not Catherine were queen.
The humiliated Catherine de’ Medici had a secret weapon—Nostradamus. Catherine believed his psychic abilities could help secure the French throne for her sons.
Prophetic messages can come in the form of visions, feelings, auditory messages, or dreams, which can have several possible interpretations. They don’t always immediately make sense. Prophetic messages are often clouded in mystery before they become crystal clear.
Nostradamus wrote his predictions in the form of a quatrain, which is a poem with four lines.
In 1556, he recorded this quatrain:
- THE YOUNGER LION SHALL SURMOUNT THE OLD.
- ‘MIDST MARTIAL BATTLEFIELD IN SINGLE DUEL.
- HIS EYES HE’LL PUT OUT IN A CAGE OF GOLD.
- TWO WOUNDS JOINED, THEN A DEATH MOST CRUEL.
Nostradamus and Queen Catherine de’ Medici were perplexed by the ominous prophecy. Nostradamus felt it was about King Henri, whose favorite sport was jousting. A jousting match involves two mounted warriors on horseback, each armed with a lance, who charge towards each other, aiming to knock their opponent off his horse or break his lance. Although Henri was told of the prophecy, the macho he-man king disregarded his wife’s fears and the ramblings of the elderly soothsayer.

Then, on June 30, 1559, during a jousting match, 30-year-old Captain Montgomery was pitted against 41-year-old King Henri, who was showing off his gold-plated helmet and armor. Both men had the emblem of a lion on their shields.
They charged toward each other, lances aimed at each other’s shields. Upon impact, a freak accident occurred when Captain Montgomery’s lance unexpectedly shattered. A wooden fragment flew into the king’s golden helmet, pierced his eye, and then lodged in his brain.
Horrified, Queen Catherine de’ Medici, Diane de Poitiers, and the entire French Court witnessed the mysterious prophecy of Nostradamus become crystal clear. Montgomery, the “younger lion,” surmounted Henri, the “older lion,” in a single duel. The king’s eyes were put out in a cage of gold—Henri’s golden helmet. Two wounds joined, then a death most cruel. First, the lance fragment pierced the king’s eye; second, it lodged in his brain. After an agonizing 10 days, Henri died.
Queen Catherine de’ Medici instantly seized power as regent for her eldest son. She ordered the immediate execution of Captain Montgomery. All the jewels Henri gave Diane de Poitiers were confiscated. She was banned from court and exiled to the chateau of Chaumont. Diane died a few years later in obscurity after suffering from painful wounds sustained in a horse-riding accident. It’s never a good idea to cheat with another woman’s husband, especially when that woman was Catherine de’ Medici.
Five centuries ago, prophecy was considered magic. However, quantum physics now offers an explanation of how spirits can perceive future events. Everything is made of molecules, which are composed of atoms that are made of protons, neutrons, and electrons, which are made of the smallest particle of pure electromagnetic energy known as a quantum (ergo the term “quantum physics”).
Einstein’s Theory of Relativity suggests on the quantum/electromagnetic level that time doesn’t exist and that past, present, and future occur simultaneously. In my book “The Afterlife Frequency,” the Electromagnetic Soul Theory (EMS) explains that pure energy Electromagnetic Souls are able to “tap into” and perceive what we call the future.
However, deciphering the mysterious language of prophecy still presents challenges. As a psychic medium, I facilitate communication between people in our world with their loved ones in spirit. In the last quarter of 2019, I began receiving repetitive messages, which first started during a session for Katie. The spirit of Katie’s grandfather transmitted visual images to me about Katie and her family wearing surgical masks in “March 2020.”
Initially, this didn’t make sense. No one in Katie’s family was in the medical profession or scheduled for surgery. Nor could Katie think of anything significant coming up in March 2020.
In readings for other clients, I kept receiving messages about people wearing surgical masks in March 2020. Then spirits began to convey another cryptic message:
“HUMANITY WILL GLIMPSE WHAT IT CAN ACHIEVE IF YOUR GENIUSES WORK TOGETHER.”
I knew these repetitive messages transmitted by spirits through me to people unrelated to one another were significant, but how?

Then the COVID-19 pandemic engulfed the world. Suddenly, I was flooded with messages from clients who said they now understood the message—it was March 2020, and most people were wearing surgical masks to protect themselves from the virus.
Fear swept the planet. For six weeks, most of humanity went into lockdown. The news was filled with horrifying reports of mass deaths globally due to this deadly virus. Airlines were all but grounded. People were barely driving. Factories were on pause, and manufactured goods were barely being shipped by air, rail, or sea. The world’s economy was crippled.
On the flip side, the Karmic Coin wars all but ground to a halt. Air and water pollution caused by carbon emissions and industrial waste decreased drastically. For the first time in decades, people in Mumbai, India, and Beijing, China, could see their cities’ skylines. The notoriously polluted canals of Venice, Italy, were cleared, and for the first time in 400 years, dolphins glided through the ancient city’s waterways.

In an unprecedented feat of collaboration, scientists and doctors worldwide worked in unison to find a way to diagnose, treat, and combat COVID-19. Countries, even those who were traditionally adversaries, shared technology and equipment to meet the demand for ventilators and medical equipment.
For six weeks, we glimpsed what Earth could be like if humanity’s geniuses worked together instead of against each other. They could develop clean energy, end pollution, boost food production, and cure disease. Imagine what humanity could achieve.
No longer clouded in mystery, the language of this prophecy became crystal clear.
