NOSTRADAMUS is believed by many have predicted the seismic events that have shaped our world, from revolutions to wars.
The French mystic astrologer wrote 6,338 prophecies, including when, where and how our world will dramatically end.
Many of his predictions such as the rise of Adolf Hitler, World War II, the September 11 terrorist attack, the French Revolution and the atomic bomb have been interpreted as being accurate.
According to believers, Nostradamus also appeared to have predicted the start of the coronavirus pandemic of 2020.
According to Yearly-Horoscope, more than 70 per cent of his prophecies have been fulfilled so far.
The French astrologer, who was born Michel de Nostradame, died on July 2, 1566.
But his cryptic predictions continue to be raked over in a bid glean what the future holds.
Here’s what Nostradamus believers have interpreted concerning 2023.
WORLD WAR
Worryingly Nostradamus writes: “Seven months the Great War, people dead of evil-doing.”
This has been seen as predicting that a larger World War 3 conflict could stem from the war in Ukraine.
Or it could refer to the ongoing conflict between China and Taiwan which threatens to drag the United States into a terrifying nuclear war.
The French city of Rouen bizarrely appears to escape the Armageddon in the scary prediction.
“Rouen, Evreux shall not fall to the King,” wrote Nostradamus.
MARS LANDING
Looking out into our Galaxy, the French mystic cryptically refers to a “light on Mars falling”.
These words could be explained as the planet appearing to move backward in the sky, say believers.
Or it suggests that humanity could be on the verge of a major breakthrough when it comes to colonising the Red Planet.

Elon Musk has made no secret of his desire to send humans to Mars and has suggested humans will land there by 2029.
So maybe the billionaire has something up his sleeve for 2023.
NEW POPE
Among the predictions made by Nostradamus for the coming year is a new Pope to succeed Francis.
According to the soothsayer, Pope Francis will be the last true Pope and the pontiff who takes his place will create a scandal.
