Index  to Nostradamus' Sefirot (Tree of Life) Code Mechanism.
© Allan Webber October 2017.

In order to keep control over his writings Nostradamus needed a scheme that would tell him which topics he had already covered and he did this by relying on a coding device well known in the sixteenth century. It is part of the Cabala but the reasons for its use don't necessarily require that he believed in the mystical principles at the heart of its source. He needed a scheme that a person in a later time would be able to associate with the time of his writing. The Tree of Life also known as the Sefirot, Sephirot or Sephiroth was such a device. It is probable that he drew up charts based on these trees in which he placed ten verses and then used the ciphers traditionally linked to the ten spheres of the tree to guide the content wording and lettering in each verse.

I find this ancient method provides a good discipline that restores order to the scramble technique Nostradamus employed for his text.

This page documents my Sefirots and the verse numbers involved in each. It allows access to each Sefirot, supporting pages (via links in the left column) and to the analyses of each verse (link is via the verse number). The second column gives access to the web site pages in which my stories involvinhg these sets of verses appear.
