The Plague Doctor

Michel de Nostredame, known as Nostradamus, was a renowned plague doctor during Black Death Years,  who’s visions were ahead of his time. The costume of the Plague Doctor was used to terrify people. A person dressed as the Plague Doctor was an unmistakable sign of imminent death. The first epidemic of the plague dates back to the 6^th century. Breaking out in Eastern Roman Empire under Emperor Justinian’s rule.  The emperor died of the plague himself, and the epidemic became known as Plague of Justinian. The largest epidemic of the deadly disease, the Black Death took place between 1348-1351, arrived in Europe from the East. The plague was spread all over Europe very quickly with the help of medieval ships and their rat infestations.

The costume of the Plague Doctor appeared, doctors were supposed to wear these costumes when visiting plague patients. The mask is in the shape of a birds beak, and the leather hat was supposed to make a person look like an Egyptian divinity to scare off the disease. The beak however, was actually a protective device to save the doctor from the unbearable infected stench. The beak was filled with medical herbs to ease the breathing process. The doctor would also wear a long waxed raincoat and leather or thick fabric clothes to help avoid bites from the flea’s and physical contact.

There is also evidence that there is a connection between the Black Death and the end of the world 2012. There was a prediction by Nostradamus that does seem to give proof to many people who combine his predictions with the 2012 date. Some of those predictions included World War III, the coming of the Antichrist and several natural disasters. He predicted the 2012 doomsday to begin with several natural disasters. Also, the prediction of a planet hitting Earth. There is a planet named X, but Nostradamus did not name it. Experts have found that there is a planet heading near the Earth. Nostradamus also predicted a disastrous war for December 21^st, 2012.

In relation to all of this we have a movement of people currently on a revolutionary journey to change our world for the better. Connecting to the awakening of people in the last few years. Specifically connected to the “death” of Michael Jackson. Some believe he “died” in order to bring awareness and awakening to the masses. So that upon his rising from the dead will signify that a deeper message needs to be received in order for the people to change before it is to late to save our world.
