This review is from: The Lost Book of Nostradamus (History Channel) (DVD)

The material covered in this video is not something that lends itself to simple explanation. Whether you are fan of the man or not, these drawings which draw from numerous traditions are fascinating to decode. As 2012 draws near it will be interesting to reflect back on the interpretations provided here. I would also like to see more written on the Astrological insights provided. Check out the website for an animated tour of the book itself and a cool logic game.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing how it fits like a puzzle that you finally identify, March 2, 2009

I watched this last night on the History channel and was amazed how all of these IE. bible, Mayan culture and philosophers all have described the end of days using the same symbols without some ever having contact or knowledge of each other. Also amazing how Astronomy plays such a vital role and how they could see and predict what would occur in the year 2012. Today's experts are trying to catch up to the genius of the ancient world.

1.0 out of 5 stars Claptrap, May 6, 2010

This review is from: The Lost Book of Nostradamus (History Channel) (DVD)

Self-styled Nostradamus experts are forever telling us what various quatrains mean, but it is always AFTER the events predicted. For example, one quatrain predicts the attack on 9/11, if you squint your eyes just so and hold your mouth just right. It's all based on astrology, which erroneously describes the stars going around the earth.

What I have never seen is one clear, specific Nostradamus prediction BEFORE the event. Riddles just are not helpful. Supposedly various seers, including Nostradamus, have predicted the world will end on or about December 20-1, 2012. Now, that's specific. So should everyone hold off on their Christmas shopping to see what happens? I think not.

This DVD is one big joke with weirdos pretending to great wisdom, speaking pseudo-scientific claptrap. I wasted my time on it. Don't waste yours.
