Nostradamus C5 Q23: Future radiation treatment embraces ancient folklore at a time of war.
Copyright: Allan Webber, December 2015

The anagrams in the verse suggest that this is the year when the confict between old-way of thinking and science are reconciled with each other. It occurs at the same timeas the earth is beset by disease.

This meaning can also be read in the text whereby the two contented ones that join, are old and new forms of diagnosing illness, and treating them at a time of war.

It compares the old method, which relies on astromancy (divination by the stars) ,with the treating of various diseases through the powers of unusal and rare items such as rocks that glow in the dark (radium?)

 Notes:

The above verse may also have its date hidden in Nostradamus' word choices.

The second line can be read as a claim that most of the planets are in conjunction with Mars and one such occasion on which this occurred was 1524CE with February bringing Venus, Jupiter and Saturn into their closest conjunctions.

 This is a very rare event and the periods of the planets is such that another occurrence must wait until February 2378CE, 854 years after the first.

This date is consistent with Nostradamus' reference to perfect cycles as I have shown in detail in my paper called Floods. Now since Nostradamus' objective is to set out what he saw for the future, the most likely date for this verse is 2378.
