The pontiff, who suffered a stroke at the age of 88, created a legacy of selflessness and support for the poor. His straightforward and personable life was reflected in his funeral, which was conducted in St. Peter\u2019s Square today, Saturday, April 26.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-7\"><\/div>\n<p>More than 200,000 individuals attended the ceremony, including religious leaders, members of the devout, and representatives of other faiths. It started at 10:00 a.m. and lasted until 2:00 p.m., with Cardinal Giovanni Battista Re serving as its president. at a historic act of humility, Pope Francis will then be laid to rest at the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore.<\/p>\n<p>The plain, wooden casket displayed only the open Gospel. After the liturgy, many worshippers rode in the popemobile around Rome. The basilica displayed only his pectoral cross and the word\u00a0<strong>\u201cFranciscus\u201d\u00a0<\/strong>on his tomb.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-8\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-37163\" src=\"https:\/\/dailypositiveinfo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-442.png\" alt=\"\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Source:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Nostradamus\">Wikipedia<\/a><\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>Social media started to resurrect ancient prophecies as soon as the burial took place. Nostradamus\u2019s prophecies have made a comeback, as is often the case with historical events. This time, some people think they perceive a disturbing link with Pope Francis\u2019s sudden passing.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-3\">\n<div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1761866\" data-uid=\"07191\">\n<div id=\"mgw1761866_07191\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"mgheader\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Nostradamus\u2019s Prophecies Raise Alarms After Pope Francis\u2019s Funeral<\/h2>\n<p>Les Proph\u00e9ties, written by the French apothecary and seer Nostradamus in the 16th century, was published in 1555. He gathered 942 lyrical quatrains in it, many of which foretold significant historical occurrences. Over the ages, his vague and enigmatic writing has been interpreted in a variety of ways.<\/p>\n<p>These days, one of the most talked-about prophecies describes the coming of a\u00a0<strong>\u201cBlack Pope.\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0The most popular version would have three popes in succession: a foreigner (Benedict XVI), an elderly man (Francis), and a dark-skinned pontiff in the end. The Apocalypse was meant to start with this final one.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-9\"><\/div>\n<p>A much-cited verse says,\u00a0<strong>\u201cThe Roman pontiff will not be elected, neither near nor far will he be heeded.\u201d\u00a0<\/strong>And it continues:\u00a0<strong>\u201cA young man with dark skin with the help of the great king will hand the purse to another of red color.\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0The metaphor has fueled theories about the end of the world and the Final Judgment.<\/p>\n<p>Some take this prediction literally and expect the election of a black pope. Others, however, link the term\u00a0<strong>\u201cBlack Pope\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0to the Jesuits\u2019 cassock, the order to which Francis belonged. There is also speculation about the possible destruction of Rome, the\u00a0<strong>\u201cCity of Seven Hills.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-11\"><\/div>\n<p>Francis, meanwhile, would have been the final pope, according to some. They cite an old Vatican document that purports to say that only the phrase\u00a0<strong>\u201cFinal Judgment\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0will endure after his passing. Saint Malachy\u2019s prophesy, which describes a significant shift in the Church, supports this idea.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"fluid-width-video-wrapper\"><iframe title=\"Nostradamus\u2019 Prophecy on Pope Francis' Death Comes True?

Examples include referring to oneself as the\u00a0<strong>\u201cBishop of Rome\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0or signing documents in Italian rather than Latin. The Basilica of St. Paul has a painting that shows only one more pope can follow the late Pope Francis.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-13\"><\/div>\n<p>Pope Francis\u2019 successors include Robert Sarah of Guinea and Peter Turkson of Ghana.
