Title:
HOROSCOPES - NOSTRADAMUS. Nostradamus was born in St-Rémy, Provence, at 12:14:20 pm, local time, on 14 December 1503. This data is derived from the careful study of the horoscope of Nostradamus, in David Ovason, The Secrets of Nostradamus. A Radical New Interpretation of the Master's Prophecies, 2001, pp. 377-391. . The portrait in the present chart is one based on the picture painted by César, the son of Nostradamus, which is now in the Bibliothèque de la Mesjanes, Aix-en-Provence. The sigillization, rectification method, and representation of stellar influences, within this chart, are derived from the manuscript figures of the Danish astrologer Matthias Hacus Sumbergius, and in particular from the charts in the Prognosticon, which he constructed for Philip of Spain, and which is now in the National Library, Madrid. Sumbergius was one of the official astrologers of Philip II, concerning whose future Nostradamus had much to say in his Prophéties. The Greek word, Movuoeukns (in the area of zodiacal Cancer), is the name used by Ptolemy for the fixed star Pollux (the beta of Gemini, and the immortal one of the Twins), which was the primal stellar influence in the life of Nostradamus.
