Nostradamus And The Order Of The Quest

---

"Michel Nostradamus (Michel de Notre Dame), seer of France, is among the most extraordinary of such men; born in 1503, and possessed of some inner source of knowledge beyond the reach of ordinary mortals, he wrote the history of the world to come! Two hundred years later, the celebrated Illuminist and Rosicrucian, the Comte de St. Germain, remarked to his close friend, Prince Carl of Hesse-Cassel, that he was the one who had assisted Nostradamus in the calculation of his remarkable predictions. Nostradamus was a respected physician, a man of outstanding medical accomplishments. Few details of his life are available, but from the context of his manuscripts, his epistles to the King of France, and his letters to his own son, it is evident that he too belonged to the Order of the Quest. Mystic, philosopher, astrologer, alchemist, and cabalist, Nostradamus was versed in all the secret lore disclosed only to those who have bound themselves with the oath of the brotherhood.The prophecies of Nostradamus might have come entirely as revelations of the spirit; but it is equally possible that in his quaint old doggerel verses he included part of the plan of things to come as already well set in the minds and purposes of his brother initiates." - The Secret Destiny of America by Manly P. Hall

"In adult life he was both a respected physician and a mystic who was able to write accurately the history of the world to come. ... There was no indication at the time that in the Western Hemisphere would arise a great nation, but Dr. Michel Nostradamus saw a civilization established there that would observe (always on a Thursday) a day to express thanksgiving for freedom of religion, freedom of opportunity, and freedom of life. ...He prophesied that this nation would free itself from the bonds of the mother country,would greatly prosper, but would have to fight several wars--one with the Orient--before becoming a great power in a pattern of world peace,with other nations looking to it for leadership. ...All that he foretold is precisely according to the Platonic tradition.." - The Secret Destiny of America by Manly P. Hall

"Many of Nostradamus's prophecies, in short, may not have been prophecies at all. They may have been cryptic messages, ciphers, schedules, timetables, instructions, blueprints for action.Whether this was actually the case or not, there is no question that some of Nostradamus's prophecies were not prophecies but referred, quite explicitly, to the past - to the Knights Templar, the Merovingian dynasty, the history of the house of Lorraine. A striking number of them refer to the Razes - the old comte of Rennes-le-Chateau. And the numerous quatrains which refer to the advent of 'le Grand Monarch' - the Great Monarch -indicate that this sovereign will derive ultimately from the Languedoc." - The Holy Blood and the Holy Grail Michael Baigent, Richard Leigh and Henry Lincoln Pg. 149

“...the man making the prophecy knew the machinery was already set up. We assume the same to be true of Nostradamus, and that a large part of his prophetic power was due to the fact that he knew the machinery which would make these things come to pass had already been set up. He belonged to the secret societies of his time, and while it was not possible for him to give the exact date to a day, he knew that the tremendous motion working under the surface of Europe was going to produce the changes he predicted, and perhaps he keyed his verses so that others of his kind might share his knowledge.” -Horizon the Magazine of Useful and Intelligent Living: Winter 1946 Volume 6, No. 3

"According to the "Prieure documents," the Guises and the Lorraines found an ally in a Jew named Nostradamus (1503~1566).~ Nostradamus was well aware of the history of the Priory of Sion and the Knights Templar. " - Scarlet and the Beast by John Daniel
