La republique miserable infelice,
Sera vastee de nouueau magistrat:
Leur grand amas de l'exile malefice,
Fera Sueue rauir leur grand contracts.
Nostradamus (1556) Century 4 Quatrain 67
Friends,
The Nostradamian prophecy suggesting great heat waves, hidden
fires, wars and raids during a future transit of Mars across Saturn
in the fire sign of Leo seems to be about our times. Mars began its
transit of Leo on 4 June, conjoining with Saturn in mid June. Mars
ends the transit of Leo later today (22 July).
I write this on the eleventh day of what I will call the Israeli-Hezbullah
War. It began when a terrorist unit of Hezbullah raided an Israeli
armored personnel carrier, killed eight and abducted two Israeli soldiers
on their northern border with Lebanon. Israeli retribution in the
next few days was swift and devastating to Lebanon's infrastructure.
Hezbullah's leader, the Shia cleric Nasrallah, declared open war on
Israel. The long cylindrical shafts of a thousand low and high caliber
Katyushka rockets built in Iran so far have rained down like Nostradamus'
long comet across Northern Israel as far south as Haifa and Nazareth.
An even larger rain of lethal Israeli ordinance fell on Lebanon setting
a number of its heavily populated urban forests of high rise apartments
from Sidon, Tyre all the way north to Beirut on fire. Over a half
million Lebanese civilians pick their way over bombed out roads moving
to the northern frontiers of Lebanon and east across the Syrian border.
Hundreds of Israeli and perhaps thousands of Lebanese civilians lie
dead or injured. I write this on the day thousands of Israeli troops
began incursions in force into Lebanon. A new and bloody phase of
the war begins: close quarter combat between thousands of Hezbullah
fighters and Israeli soldiers. Thousands more Lebanese fighters from
other militias, as well as the Lebanese army, pledge to fight alongside
Hezbullah to stop the invasion of their country by threatening a protracted
guerilla war.
I write this on the 18th day after North Korea test fired up to six
regional--and one intercontinental ballistic--missiles in defiance
of American threats to desist. A new crisis was born. Japan's parliament
for the first time considered overturning over a half-century old
constitutional restriction on their military waging preepmtive strikes
on other countries. The ominous splashdown of North Korean missiles
off their Western coastline so spooked Japanese legislators that they
openly debated a new Pearl Harbor scenario. This time North Korean
missile launch sites might suffer a surprise Japanese naval and air
attack before they can rocket death down on Japanese cities. I write
this on the day the world press confirmed rumors that Iranian officials
and missile scientists stood side by side in solidarity with North
Korean generals and scientists at the test launch sites of those No-Dong
and Taepo Dong missiles.
I write this on the 27th day after what I call the Israeli-Hamas War
began with the kidnapping of an Israeli soldier by Hamas terrorists
in a raid out of the Gaza strip into southern Israel. Tanks of Zion
have since then rumbled into the Gaza strip. The armed forces of Israel
have begun a systematic, though far less devastating campaign compared
to what would come in Lebanon, degrading Gaza's infrastructure with
bombs and their own "long comet"-like missiles.
I write this three years and 83 days after President Bush stood on
a US aircraft carrier deck under a sign saying "Mission Accomplished"
and made a photo op-friendly speech about all major military action
in his invasion of Iraq ending.
I write this six weeks and three days after the the terrorist leader
of al-Qaeda in Mesopotamia (Iraq), Abu Musab al-Zarqawi--a clear candidate
for Nostradamus' Third Antichrist "Mabus" (code for "Musab"?)--was
killed by US airstrikes on his safe house 30 miles North of Baghdad.
I write this on the day it was reported that 6,000 Iraqi civilians
in the last seven weeks have died from sectarian violence between
Shia and Sunnis across Iraq. I write this after a bloody fortnight
of new wars in the Middle East and a missile crisis with North Korea
has turned the news media's attention away from the bigger story.
They overlooked a deadlier flash point for the spread this summer
of the fires of war under the bellicose sign of Mars transiting Saturn
in Leo. Our attention has been diverted from a dangerous turn for
the worst in Iraq. The long smoldering threat of religious civil war
in Iraq has sprouted naked fires. It would seem that Abu Musab al-Zarqawi
has gotten his death wish.
I share quotes with you today from the past year of HogueProphecy
Bulletins that presaged all the above concerning what would happen
in the summer of 2006.
It is indeed a summer much like that inferred by Nostradamus, where
the air is "very dry." Enough so that great brushfires rage
across the American West and along the Mediterranean coast of Spain.
The "great place" of Europe is under record temperatures,
and much of North America "burns with heat" under protracted
heat waves above 100 degrees Fahrenheit. Hidden fires also plume from
clandestine missile launches across Lebanon, Gaza and Israel. North
Korea aims to arm their test missiles with the "hidden fires"
of nuclear warheads. Iran arms Hezbullah with long cometlike rockets
while it works to "hide" the fires of its own nuclear program
deep within underground facilities.
Here are some of the passages in the last year of HogueProphecy Bulletins
that presaged this:
"Mars will end its transit of equal fire with Saturn in Leo on 22 July. A full-scale civil war in Iraq and/or a widening conflict including Iran and Israel can happen at any time during or a few months after the end of this astrological aspect. Perhaps fate and fiery planets will throw a little doomsday Korean seasoning into the mix."
The Death of Abus Musab
Al-Zarqawi--
26 June 2006
"What I said about the latter-half of 2005, in my last New Year prophecy report will be magnified this year (SEE Saturn's President: 24 December 2004.) It will not be a time to hold onto old and habitual ways and resist adapting new ideas to meet the challenges of a new era. A leader or people not heeding Saturn's transit through the next 23 degrees of Leo will face the coming challenges looking backwards. They will become more bellicose rather than diplomatic, more self-righteous and dismissive when criticized. They will seek to end wars in 2006 only to widen them because they will be stubbornly blind to their part, their unconscious contribution, to the problems of the world. They will be closed when they should be open, wax dictatorial when they ought to conciliate."
Predictions for 2006 and Beyond, Part 1--31 December 2005
"Saturn in Leo will see [President Bush] try to achieve is goals, no matter what cautions cry. And in doing what he thinks is good, he will make things worse, in the Middle East, in Korea, in the American economy and in the domestic life of his people."

Predictions for 2006 and
Beyond, Part 2--
31 December 2005
The Middle East stands on the verge of angry stars of war. America's
proxy (Israel) fights its battle against terror for them. Iran and
Syria fight their poxy terrorist war in return on Israel and America
through Hamas, Hezbullah, and Shia militias in Iraq. Open clashes
between US-Israeli forces against Syria and Iran may erupt any time
this summer.
The US Secretary of State, Condi Rice, flies to Israel tomorrow (23
July) to begin diplomatic efforts to end the Hezbullah-Hamas wars
and forestall a full-scale Israeli invasion of Lebanon. It so happens
that Sunday is the first full day after Mars left the sign of Leo.
Mars enters Virgo, the ruler of discernment or judgementalism depending
on whether wisdom or ego reigns. May Rice and the diplomatic missions
of France, Germany, the UN, also gathering in Israel this weekend,
be successfully discerning. I doubt they will if negotiations do not
include Syria and Iran.
Saturn continues its peace-limitating transit of Leo until September
2007. Negotiating a road map to Middle Eastern peace could still see
diplomats take self-centered "my way or the highway" stances
in peace talks that go nowhere.
There will be a call for an international UN stabilization force to
guard Southern Lebanon. Most likely this will happen after Israeli
troops occupying the area hand it over to the UN forces. I am wondering
how they will adequately do this while bogged down in a guerilla war
with the Lebanese and Hezbullah. The potential for UN intervention
begs me to explore soon the famous and often mistranslated prophecy
of Nostradamus in Century 2 Quatrain 2. It describes a leader in the
Middle East with a "blue turban." The literal translation
of "teste bleu" is "blue head." Perhaps rather
than turbans, Nostradamus infers the blue helmet of UN troops guarding
the Israeli-Lebanese border in the near future. I will also soon share
with you the prophecy that names "Hamas" and its future
outright in a trick word play.
