END OF DAYS! Miracle of Saint Januarius blood Liquefying fails 

Ancient Miracle of Saint Januarius’ blood liquifying fails to occur signalling END OF DAYS CATHOLIC leaders have begun praying after the regular miracle of a dead Saint’s blood liquefying failled to happen -which is said to be an omen for war, disease and famine.

Three times a year, the dried blood of St Januarius, Patron of Naples and former bishop and martyr of the city, is said to turn to liquid and if it does not it is supposed to signal the start of a period of war, disease and famine. He is believed to have been martyred during the infamous persecution of Christians during the rule of the Roman emperor Diocletian, who retired in 305, and is known in Italian as San Gennaro.

His bones and a reliquary of his blood are preserved in Naples’ cathedral. The alleged miracle is locally known, but has not had official church recognition. The liquefaction of blood is said to happen the Saturday before the first Sunday of May, on September 19, the saint’s feast day, and on December 16, the anniversary of the 1631 eruption of Mount Vesuvius.
