A book that predicted Queen Elizabeth II would die in 2022 based on Nostradamus’s forecasts over 500 years ago, includes numerous other accurate predictions, says its publisher.
Mario Reading’s 2005 tome ‘Nostradamus: The Complete Prophecies for the Future’, interpreted prophetic quatrains written by the French soothsayer in the 1550s, many of which are believed to have actually come true. And the author’s son also thinks that the legendary figure predicted Elon Musk’s mission to Mars.
Mario, who died in 2017, had a theory that Nostradamus’s quatrains – four-line pieces of rhymed verse – are number indexed to correlate with dates. And the book’s publisher Watkins says that Mario’s interpretations also deduced that he forecast the assassination of Benazir Bhutto in 2007 and the Credit Crunch in 2008, reports WalesOnline.

Speaking in a TV video interview a few years ago, Mario claimed his book and Nostradamus also correctly predicted the Islamic terrorist attacks in Paris in 2015. He said: “There are a couple of quatrains that are really quite stunningly prescient.
“They were the ones I discussed at the time. I dated them, according to index dates, between two and three years out – but I think when I read them to you, you’ll realise how specific they are.
“The first one is: ‘Because of French carelessness and misunderstanding; the Mohamedens will find a way in. Blood will soak the Seine by land and sea; The Phoenician port will fill with sails and vessels… ’ well, that’s very specific about an attack on Paris, the Seine.”
Mario also claims Nostradamus correctly predicted that King Charles I would be executed in 1649, by the Parliamentarian ‘Roundheads’, during the English Civil War. He said: “There’s an extraordinary quatrain, index dated 49.
“Any historian will immediately know what I’m talking about when it says the English Parliament will put their king to death… Well, at the time that Nostradamus wrote this, in 1555, no Parliament had ever put their king to death.
“It had never occurred. And Charles I was beheaded in 1649.”
Mario’s interpretations also look at the future of King Charles III – in a section that correctly predicted Queen Elizabeth II would die in 2022. Nostradamus quatrain 10/22 reads: “Because they disapproved of his divorce, A man who later they considered unworthy; The People will force out the King of the islands; A Man will replace who never expected to be king.”

Mario goes on to claim this quatrain predicts that King Charles will abdicate because he is “weary at the persistent attacks on both himself and second wife” because of “resentments held against him by a certain proportion of the British population, following his divorce from Diana, Princess of Wales”.
However, the book concludes that it is Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex – a man who never expected to be King – who will become the next Monarch. This is instead of his brother William, the new Prince of Wales.
And it has made the headlines in recent days as the prediction about the abdication of King Charles III re-emerged. Now, his son, Laurie Reading, has expressed amazement at the response to his dad’s work.
He described his father – who wrote a number of Nostradamus Prophecies books including best-seller The Antichrist series thriller trilogy – as ‘a hero’. Laurie said: “It’s been completely incredible to see so many people discussing and sharing my father’s book.
“It really was a labour of love for him to write, and if he was here today he’d be wonderfully proud that a number of his interpretations have come to fruition. I look forward to seeing what other predictions come true.”
Laurie highlighted one prediction for 2023 that he believes may be about Elon Musk’s mission to get to Mars. Quatrain 5/23 reads: “The two contenders will unite together; When most others unite with Mars; The African leader is fearful and trembles; The dual alliance is separated by the fleet.”
Mario’s interpretation makes no mention of Musk or space travel – and suggested instead that the world would see “two powers unite to together” in order to combat global warfare. However, Laurie thinks the ‘African leader’ could be a reference to tech mogul and engineer Elon Musk – who was born in South Africa and plans to send humans to Mars to colonise the red planet by 2050.
