WOMAN WHO FORETOLD THE DISASTER

In 1998, my husband and I went to the movies. We seldom do (I guess in all these married years perhaps 10 times), but there was a new movie 'Titanic' that we both wanted to see. All that publicity around the movie had us intrigued. We got a bit crampy sitting 4 hours in a chair watching the movie in a Dutch theatre, but we liked it. That was all. Something kept clear in my mind, not from the movie itself, but from the mini-movie (short) just before it. A Dutch insurance company showed a mini-movie in brown coloured shades to get an 'old' impression about the year of the sailing of the Titanic. The film shows an old Ford automobile that is being loaded with wooden crates reading: 'breakable, be careful.' The old looking car is on its way to some place. But every now and then, the crates shake and almost fall off the car. After some turbulent ride, the Ford drives towards a big ship. The 'breakable' stuff is finally being loaded very carefully... then: the name 'Titanic' and the name of the insurance company appears. Funny story of course: these crates will not make it without breaking because The Titanic will sink...

In December 1998, I surfed on the Internet just for fun. I seldom do, but being a past life therapist someone gave me a present: a book by Reb Gershom about pastlives and the holocaust. I wanted to see if there was more info on the World Wide Web. On the Webpage of Reb Gerhsom, I found some links to William Barnes, the author of 'I Built the Titanic.' I was intrigued... specially when I remembered having done therapy with clients over the years in which two of them told me they have had a past life on 'The Titanic', being band members on the deck as the ship sank. They did not know each other in this life, they came seperately to me to do reincarnation-therapy.

I simply had to write William Barnes. I did not really know why, but the need to write was tremendous, so I did. When he wrote something in return I was so happy that I finally was able to reach him... and recollections of my past life in France came up again spontaneously. Since 1991, I had not thought about that past life anymore, but now in 1998 and still in 1999 more recollections are popping up. Bits and pieces of the period 1910-1918. We all remember past lives when we have to remember... not any sooner....

 

Past life of a woman in France around 1910

One morning, I read the French courant/newspaper and I see a small picture of a big ship, called 'Titanic.' Then a fear comes up in my chest and my heart pounds. "Oh, my God, this ship is going down," I think. My hands are shaking and I have to put down the newspaper. I see images in my head of people drowning in the sea. Fear comes up and the urge to warn someone. My chest aches in pain. 'Titanic' will sink, no doubt about that!

After a few moments, things calm down. I pick up the newspaper again and read the entire article. The big ship is not ready yet. It is being built. It will sail off soon. It is such a major project that newspapers already write about it. High Society can make reservations for the maiden voyage. During the next weeks, I have terrible nightmares in my sleep about drowning people who cry and shout at their death moment. Every time a small article in the French newspaper mentions 'Titanic', I receive more detailed images in my mind of the sinking at full sea. I cannot stop what I foresee. I must warn the builder of the ship!

I try to make a long distance phone call to the ship's company and ask to talk to the man in charge. In my very best English I try to warn about the sinking of 'Titanic'. On the other side of the line, I hear a man say: 'You crazy woman, this ship cannot sink, you are crazy!' and he hangs up on me. That night I cry myself asleep. Why do they not believe me? All those people in danger... I feel so alone.

One day, I hear people talking on the streets and in the shops of my village about the sinking of 'Titanic'. It finally happened. I knew it was going to happen. I'm happy that I was right about it, but I also feel sadness. Why wouldn't they listen to my warnings? I feel sad and guilty. If I could have warned the builder of the ship, perhaps people would not have drowned. If, if, if... If only I had been able to warn properly....

 

In my present life I was finally able to contact William Barnes in 1999. He was once Tommie Andrews, the designer of the 'Titanic'. In my past life as a French woman I did not succeed in contacting and warning him. France was too far away from the country he lived in to communicate about my visions in my dreams.

Nowadays I live in the south of Holland near the Belgium border, William Barnes lives in the USA. There still is a big ocean between us but we were finally able to communicate about the sinking of 'Titanic' and to talk about spiritual paths in life. A few years later William Barnes became a therapist himself.
