Lignum Vitae

Saint Malachy (1049 - 1148) was a 12-century Irish priest who had predicted the number of future Popes with stunning accuracy. Saint Malachy gave each Pope a short descriptive motto in Latin such as: Ex Castro Tiber (The Castle on the River Tiber). Saint Malachy had allegedly a vision of the future lineage of Popes, so he wrote it down and gave it to the Vatican.

A Belgian priest, Arnold de Wion, allegedly found the Malachy's original manuscript in the Vatican and included it in his book Lignum Vitae, which was published in 1595.

Opponents argue that the Malachy's list is a fake elaborated by Arnold de Wion some 447 years later. However, Malachy's (or de Wion's?) prophetic motto describes every Pope quite accurately even after the year 1595.

There are two versions of the Malachy's list - one contains 111 and another one 112 Popes. The list of the future Popes ends with the number 111 (or 112 if we consider another list), and critics argue that not Malachy, but someone else put the 112th Pope into the list many years later. This is possible, because the list had been kept unnoticed in the Vatican's archives for more than 400 years. After its rediscovery the Vatican authorities said that the list had been a fake.

The last Pope, however, is not numbered, so the motto about Petrus Romanus (whom some scholars consider to be the last 112th Pope) may only be a continuation of the previous motto (Gloria Olivae).

The list of Popes that Malachy had predicted can be found in English Wikipedia.

Critics also say that Nostradamus created the list, because he wanted to avoid persecution, and he might also use de Wion as a disguise.

The motto for the last Pope (Petrus Romanus - either the 111th Pope characterized as Gloria Olivae and expanded with yet another motto; or the 112th Pope, but not numbered as other Popes) is: In extreme persecution, the seat of the Holy Roman Church will be occupied by Peter the Roman, who will feed the sheep through many tribulations; when they are over, the city of seven hills will be destroyed, and the terrible or fearsome Judge will judge his people. The End.

"The city of seven hills" may be anything - even the world's system as we know it. There is, too, uncertainty about the word "persecutione". Arnold de Wion used an abbreviation "psecutione", which means both persecution and the duration of time - "prosecutione." The original Malachy's list ends with the number 111 (with motto: Gloria Olivae).

It is known that Pope Benedict XVI comes from the Olivetan order, which was founded around the year 1313. Pope John Paul II, 110th in the order, is described with the motto Labor de Solis (From the Work of the Sun) and he was indeed born on the day of solar eclipse.

The name Petrus Romanus is not in the original Malachy's list.

Nostradamus' prophecies are written in verses, which are very difficult to understand, and their interpretation can have a hundred directions. One argument for the notion that Nostradamus disguised himself as Malachy is the time when the Malachy's prophecy slithered to light - in the year 1595, shortly after Nostradamus' death (1566). The second argument is that Arnold de Wion lived at the same time as Nostradamus and they could know themselves.

Black Pope?

Malachy does not say anything about Black Pope, but one Quatrain (C6Q16) in the book Les Propheties written by Nostradamus may indicate the arrival of a black Pope:

That which will be carried off by the young Hawk,

By the Normans of France and Picardy:

The black ones of the temple of the Black Forest place

Will make an inn and fire of Lombardy.

Nostradamus' prophecies are divided into centuries (cycles of time). It is clear from the above verses that Nostradamus spoke in riddles. The term "Black Pope" does not come from him but rather from people who tried to decipher his prophetic Quatrains. However, Pope Benedict XVI has a black man in his Coat of Arms (known as Caput Aethiopum in heraldry). Scholars are not yet sure about its origin. The Bavarian district Freising (Germany) has used the head of a crowned black man as its symbol since 1316. Some scholars say that Caput Aethiopum symbolizes Balthazar, one of the Magi (Three Wise Men or Three Kings from the East who visited Jesus after his birth).

Curriculum Vitae (Paperback) $30.77 It is no surprise that one of Muriel Spark`s most lively and entertaining workswould be her own memoir, Curriculum Vitae. Born to a Scottish Jewish fatherand an English Presbyterian mother, Spark describes her childhood in 1930sEdinburgh in brief, dazzling anecdotes. In one she recalls a cherished schoolteacher,Christina Kay, who would later be used as the prototype for MissJean Brodie. Spark boldly details her disastrous first marriage to SydneyOswald Spark (S.O.S.) - himself thirty-two, she just nineteen - whom she followedto Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) and left behind to return to England. Inthe midst of WWII, Spark took a bizarre position working in the disinformationcampaign of the British Secret Service, eliciting information from GermanPOWs to combat Nazi propaganda. She later moved to the Poetry Society ofLondon, where she mingled with literati and other intellectuals, befriended bysome (such as Graham Greene, an early supporter of her work) and sparringwith others. We experience Spark`s joy with the publication of her firstnovel, The Comforters, her trials with other writers` envy, and her emergence asthe most brilliant femme fatale of 20th-century English literature.
