Nostro
Dr dear Dr: Is there anything among the Prophets and Futurists about the New Year of 2022 that we can ponder about and explore?
There are figures that are sometimes cited as predictors of the future, figures such as St Malachy or Nostrodamus or Malachi Martin for instance and his Windswept Houses. Up to recently one of the intriguing features often glossed over in the Versicles of Prophecy of the 1590 Nostrodamus was his assertion that in the distant past, Twinning Years often produced a disaster or a plague or some such calamity, and until recently, until two girls produced their Guide to the great figure, it was assumed that Nostro’s Twinning Years referred to 4 digits, and so regarded years like 1616, 1717, 1818, 1919, 2020, 2121, 2222, 2323, and so on. But the Girl’s Guide to the much maligned but misunderstood monk suggests now that his Twinning Years refer to the last two digits and not all four digits, so like 2022, 2033, 2044, 2055, 2066, 2077, so maybe there is something there to be more sober about in the coming years and months. Solemn reading. Greater meditation. Sober prediction. Astute realism, more sobriety required.
