Some 1993 "Predictions" from the Fox-TV show "Sightings",
January 8, 1993 (highlights).
Attributed to Nostradamus:
Peter Lorie, Author/Publisher, said,
"We believe that at 7:05 in the evening, on the 8th of May, 1993,
there will be one of the largest earthquakes ever to hit California.
That it will spread during an 11-minute period, when the quake will
actually continue, all the way up the coast, on
the Andreas fault, and that it will start a major disaster on the
American continent."
[The screen shows a map having an earthquake radiating outward from
Los Angeles, to San Francisco and beyond.]
Psychologist Terence Sandbek, PhD [of the Sacramento Skeptics], said
that Nostradamus wrote in "very obscure quatrains ... you can read
anything in it you want to."
A book was shown, "Nostradamus, The End of the Millenium, Prophecies:
1992 to 2001" by V.J. Hewitt and Peter Lorie. [Possibly published in
the U.K., Lorie speaks with a British accent.]
Lorie says: "What we did in our book was to actually discover a code,
a numerical and grammatical code, which actually is quite tricky to
begin with, but once you get the hang of it it's quite simple, which
decodes the quatrains and makes them much more fascinating than they
are in fact on the face of it." [i.e., these authors alone have
discovered the "hidden meaning" encoded within Nostradamus' quatrains!]
On the screen, from Lorie's book, as he speaks: "Verse X.74 decoded:
L'Amerique apres Roi Charles et Jeux Olympiques...."
An elaborate "translation table" of dates and numbers is shown.
Supposed meaning: "Beginning in 1992 and ending in 1993, the coronation
of King Charles and the Olympic Games will be followed by a great
earthquake triggered off by a shifting in the sea...."
Richard Nolle, astrologer, predicts a terrible year, the kind you will
put on a T-shirt, "I survived 1993." He predicts terrorist attacks
around Feb. 2, also in August & early October. A major earthquake in the
western U.S. probably around February 8, or March 6, or April 6, plus or
minus 3 days.
Arch Crawford, Wall Street astrologer. Sees a stock market high late in
April, then a "very devastating" May-June period, which may be another
crash, "the worst I've seen in a long time."
Erika Cheetham, author and "Nostradamus expert," predicts an earthquake
on the west coast of unprecedented magnitude, on May 21, 1993.
Jeanne Avery, astrologer, predicts that 1993 will "not be an easy" year.
The Uranus-Neptune conjunction spells big trouble. The stock market
will be in trouble February/March. Major "earth changes" will occur
around Seattle, or Utah, or Portland in May. Explains that "earth
changes" might be floods, hurricanes, disastrous weather, or maybe
earthquakes. She also sees the stock market in big trouble at that
time, and some "terrible rumblings" in middle eastern countries.
Bill Clinton will have a "fabulous" term. He will make a "wonderful"
president. He has four years ahead with very few difficult aspects.
He will be a "fabulous leader."
