Nostradamus

For a change of pace I thought I'd offer this Quatrain from Nostradamus:

La defchaffee au regne tournera,
Ses ennemis trouues des coniures:
Plus que iamais fon temps tiomphera,
Trois & feptante a mort trop affeures

Century 6, Quatrain 74 (C6Q74)

Translated from the Nostradamus Repository;

She chased out will return to the realm,
Her enemies found to be conspirators:
More than ever her time will triumph,
Three and seventy to death very sure.

Or if you prefer, the Erika Cheetham translation;

She who was cast out will return to reign,
Her enemies found among conspirators.
More than ever will her reign be triumphant.
At three and seventy death very sure.

You either buy into Nostradamus as a prophet or you don't. The skeptics say that it's easy to interpret after the fact to make things fit with events. This is true and happens all the time with Nostradamus. After an event, someone will pop up with an ill-fitting Quatrain and proclaim it to be a hit. Some go so far as to make up a Quatrain as happened after the Twin Towers.

Just for the Skeptics, here's a before the fact interpretation and as far out as you can go.

C6Q74 applies to Princess Diana, who isn't actually dead but is in hiding; spirited away from the dark forces who have seeded themselves at the heart of the establishment after the (Chinook Helicopter) Military coup of 1994.

That's why death at 73 is so sure, geddit?

Just in case you are wondering, Prince Charles will take the position of Prince Regent.
