00:00Hello and welcome to Weird and Wonderful Britain.
00:03In this video we're going to take a look at Nostradamus' predictions for the year 2025.
00:09It has been reported that French philosopher Nostradamus made some forecasts for the year
00:13of 2025, including natural disaster and a cyber threat.
00:18Now take all this with a pinch of salt, but there are a significant number out there who
00:22reckon what he predicts has or will come true.
00:25Some say he predicted the passing of Queen Elizabeth II, as well as the 1666 Great Fire
00:31of London and the two world wars.
00:35Others think he's a crackpot.
00:37So as we're covering things weird and wonderful, let's dive into what this arcane French mystic
00:43allegedly predicted centuries ago about what's coming in 2025.
00:48Citing Nostradamus' writing, Schott's sister outlet National World reports that
00:53"...Nostradamus alluded to earth-shaking and rivers overflowing, which some have interpreted
01:00as signs of coming environmental upheavals.
01:03In the context of 2025, these phrases align with escalating climate change concerns and
01:09worries over pending ecological disaster."
01:12National World also notes that he mentioned fires and droughts, which could tie to the
01:16global climate crisis, with events such as wildfires, droughts and floods becoming more
01:22frequent.
01:23But who knows?
01:24The astrologer also foresaw cruel wars and described a period marked by great powers
01:30clashing.
01:31Now, there are a number of ongoing conflict this could relate to, so it's quite vague
01:35at best.
01:36In modern times, great powers are always clashing in one way or another, be it via a trade war
01:41or other means.
01:42He also reportedly foresaw a decline of western powers and the rise of new ones.
01:47But how that aligns with geopolitics is anybody's guess.
01:50In a cryptic reference to coin leather, Nostradamus is believed to have predicted financial instability
01:57or a shift in economic systems.
01:59Some reckon this could be about inflation and the rise of digital currencies such as
02:03cryptocurrency.
02:05According to National World, Nostradamus also warns of fortunes lost overnight.
02:10Nostradamus, who himself was a physician, is said to have predicted that there would
02:15be huge advances in medical tech in the areas of illness prevention and treatment.
02:20This could relate to how AI is expected to enhance healthcare in the near future with
02:25personalised recommendations and quicker diagnoses.
02:29But as with anything from Nostradamus, take that with a pinch of salt.
02:33There are reports which suggest Nostradamus predicted a cyber attack on global infrastructure.
02:39Now did he actually?
02:40We don't know.
02:41But with the way tech is and how interconnected we are, a major cyber attack would surely
02:46be devastating.
02:47And that is that.
