When the end of the year approaches, we generally all feel the same desire: to know what the new year has in store for us! If there is anyone who did not have the same feeling, it is obviously Nostradamus.
Recognized for his prophecies, the latter has already predicted what will happen in 2023. And here are his conclusions.
Between admirers and detractors, Nostradamus leaves no one indifferent. Even centuries after his death, his prophecies continue to fuel conversations.
And although these are written in verse, called quatrains, they do not refer to specific years and can be difficult to interpret.
However, certain clues may show that certain events could occur in the near future. Here is what he predicted for 2023.
Who has never heard of Nostradamus? This character who was at the same time doctor, apothecary, and astrologer turned the world upside down with his work “The Prophecies”.
In the latter, he predicts centuries in advance, all the changes and upheavals that the whole world is experiencing.
Considered, rightly or wrongly, as a true preacher, these writings fascinate as much as they question. Relayed by the German news magazine, Heute, here are Nostradamus' predictions for several events in 2023.
1. The Third World War
It's a word that comes up quite often when two nations oppose each other or have a dispute. Indeed, it is not uncommon to regularly hear the word “war” in this kind of situation.
According to Nostradamus, a third world war could break out in 2023 and should last seven months.
In any case, this is what he affirmed in his writings: “Seven months of Great War, people died of evildoing”. Moreover, this war will not be without consequences.
If the prophecies of Nostradamus come true and there is a full-scale nuclear war between the United States and Russia, then the average surface temperature of the planet will drop by 16 degrees Celsius, which is three times the temperature difference between now and the previous ice age, and 5 billion people will perish as a result.
In the event of a nuclear conflict between India and Pakistan, the world's food production would drop by fifty percent, leading to the deaths of two billion people due to starvation.
It is emphasized in quatrain #2-89 that the United States and Russia will once again be “friends” in one day. And there is no nation that can withstand their combined strength.
However, if quatrains #4-95 and #5-78 are to be believed, the friendship won't last for very long.
The renunciation of friendship between these two countries could have repercussions for a great number of upcoming events on a global scale if this prediction turns out to be accurate.
2. The First Steps on the Planet Mars
If the vision of man setting out to conquer the planet Mars was still only a distant memory. This could change, during this new year 2023. According to Nostradamus, man will finally succeed in setting his feet on the famous red planet.
It is not for nothing that his texts refer to a “light on Mars which falls”.
Indeed, and taking this sentence into consideration, Nostradamus suggests that once this planet will be colonized by man, a great discovery will make it possible to achieve scientific advances, unimaginable until then.
3. The Emergence of a New Economic Crisis
It's no secret that the Covid-19 pandemic has had a devastating effect on the whole world, from a health and economic point of view.
And now, for 2023, Nostradamus in turn announces the appearance of a new global crisis, although it is only economic this time.
The collapse of the economy will be, according to him, one of the consequences of the world conflict which is supposed to break out during this same year.
Also according to Nostradamus, money will no longer have any value in the eyes of people, because it will be of no use to them at this stage of the situation.
4. The Worsening Climate Crisis
The climate crisis is always a topical subject that does not fail to concern us, as climate change seems increasingly unusual. And it is not Nostradamus who will say the opposite.
Indeed and according to him, this year would be the scene of several natural disasters of all kinds, in particular, because of global warming.
5. The Arrival of a New Pope
Among Nostradamus' most disturbing predictions is the death of Pope Francis. To succeed him, a new pope will be appointed.
The latter, younger, will be at the origin of a huge scandal that will shake the church until 2029.
A situation that finds its origin in one of the writings of the astrologer:
“In the final persecution of the Holy Roman Church, there will be Peter the Roman, who will feed his flock in the midst of many tribulations, after which the city of seven hills will be destroyed and the terrible judge will judge the people”.
Other Predictions by Nostradamus Attributed to the Year 2023 or the Near Future
The Destruction of a Large Empire
The French seer made the prediction that there is a possibility of a large empire being destroyed (perhaps, Russia or China).
In addition, there is a significant chance that a global catastrophe will occur, which will result in a significant increase in the number of victims and patients.
In the context of warfare, the year 2023 is likely to see conflicts taking place both on land and on water.
“Quite another one will attain to the great Empire, Kindness distant more so happiness: Ruled by one sprung not far from the brothel, Realms to decay great bad luck.”
Vladimir Putin Will Be Assassinated, and Biden Will Suffer from a Mysterious Disease
Both Vladimir Putin, the president of Russia, and Joe Biden, the president of the United States, are destined to have a very turbulent year, as Nostradamus has predicted.
An attempt will be made on the life of the President of Russia, Vladimir Putin, by members of his personal security.
If the prophecy is realized, someone very close to Vladimir Putin will turn against him and betray him.
The prophet foretold that Joe Biden will fall victim to an unidentified illness and that a member of the first family of the United States will be killed in a car crash.
Both of these events are foretold to take place in the near future.
European Countries May Have to Deal With Depopulation
Nostradamus predicts that in the year 2023, the nations of Europe will be forced to face the prospect of depopulation, which is generally regarded as the ultimate consequence of the use of chemical weapons in addition to other conflicts related to nuclear technology.
Every supposedly divine prophecy is said to be capable of becoming even more terrifying than it has ever been for the year 2023.
The great event that Nostradamus foretold would herald the beginning of the Third World War drawing ever nearer, just as he predicted it would.
In his book “Les Propheties,” Nostradamus predicted that the third World War would take place between the years 2022 and 2023. He also mentioned the possibility of a nuclear war.
“Within the isles a very horrible uproar, One will hear only a party of war, So great will be the insult of the plunderers That they will come to be joined in the great league.”
England Will Have a New King
The passing of the Queen will be one of the events in Great Britain that will cause the most upheaval over the past seven decades.
Since her coronation in 1952, Queen Elizabeth II has lived long enough to meet 13 prime ministers of Great Britain and 13 presidents of the United States of America.
When the Queen passes away, Great Britain will be in mourning for at least a week and a half, during which time no activity will be permitted; the experts estimate that this will result in economic losses of several billion pounds for the country.
The funeral of the Queen and the coronation of her successor will both be observed as national holidays, and the financial institutions and stock markets will be closed.
It is expected that Prince Charles will eventually ascend to the throne of Great Britain. After that, not long after the queen's passing, he is scheduled to make trips to Scotland and Wales.
Huge Ants, Spiders Invasion
Another terrifying prediction made by Nostradamus is that a magnitude 9.8 earthquake will “open a hole in the Mariana Trench,” which will result in the release of enormous species of ants, spiders, and locusts that will eventually take over the entire world.
Hybrid Human-Monkey Soldier Created in a Russian Laboratory
Putin has given instructions to his scientists to create a human-monkey hybrid that will be immune to any illness and able to digest any type of food, including food that has been tainted with poison.
“A monkey soldier of fortune with twisted tongue
will come to the sanctuary of the gods.
He will open the door to heretics
and raise up the Church militant.”
A Meteorite Full of Alien Species Will Reach Earth
The Earth is going to be struck by a gigantic meteorite about the size of a blue whale, and inside of it will be new kinds of metals as well as alien species.
How Many Prophecies Did Nostradamus Get Right?
The Rise of Hitler
It was well known that Nostradamus was skilled at playing word games using the names of famous people in order to confuse those who attempted to understand his prophecies.
It was intended for the word “Hister” to be a combination of the words “Hitler” and “Ister,” which provided us with some information regarding the name and location of that leader.
It was possible for us to figure out that “Ister” was the Latin name for the river Danube, the banks of which were the locations where he was born.
In addition, one of Germany's allies in the Axis Forces, the country of Japan, which is located in the East, was mentioned in the very last line of the passage.
“From the depths of the West of Europe,
A young child will be born of poor people,
He who by his tongue will seduce a great troop;
His fame will increase towards the realm of the East.”
London Great Fire
The “Great Fire of London” occurred in 166 and was widely recognized as a terrible conflagration that obliterated the majority of central London.
It was estimated that the total loss was somewhere around 10,000,000 pounds, and it completely destroyed thousands of structures, including houses, churches, and other places of worship.
Because it suggested that this city would fall into ruin and depression, the quatrain attributed to Nostradamus gained a reputation as a shocking and accurate prophecy.
“The blood of the just will be demanded of London
Burnt by fire in the year ’66
The ancient Lady will fall from her high place
And many of the same sect will be killed. “
Nagasaki and Hiroshima Bombing
One of the most unbelievable prophecies was that the bombs would be dropped on Nagasaki and Hiroshima.
This quatrain provides an accurate depiction and prediction of the atomic bombings that took place in Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Nostradamus provided an accurate description of the magnitude and breadth of this horror.
Additionally, there were a great number of distinct forecasts that he made in the past that turned out to be accurate in the future:
- Terror attack on September 9, 2011
- Moon landing
- Death of Diana
- Death of Henry II
- Napoleon
- French revolution
- JFK assassinations

Hi!
Interesting to see at the time of the writing of this article the queen was still alive. But what I wanted to mention is about a Biden family member being killed in a car accident. I’m pretty sure it already happened several years ago when Bidens wife at the time was killed in a car crash. You can check it out. Thanks,
Laura Padilla
Very interesting Thank you
