Debris has now been found near the Titanic wreck site as we all know and the bodies may never be recovered, pending a forensic investigation. I'm left with two map locations in a straight line, going back behind St. Johns (or in the days before the expedition, forward to St. Johns, depending on which way you look at it). An astrologer friend has commented on the 'Neptune' aspects of the disappearance. Neptune is of course a symbol for the ocean but also for mystery.

I can't help with numbers here. Did a little research just now, but all I've got was synchronicity: the first postmistress of the settlement of Ivanhoe was Lilian Ivany (mind the surname) and it's funny you recalled the 9/11 attack, because it was the date that post office opened for business in 1952. Eventually it closed a month and a day before the 900th anniversary of the battle of Hastings. The reason I mention this is of course the novel by W. Scott (mind the surname!) which is, I suppose, the most obvious source for what you heard, if you can remember the plot. W. Scott wrote that he got his novel’s name from a song which misspells the town of Ivinghoe - I spotted “IRVING” on the photo you posted (a matter of accent?) and the song goes “Tring, Wing and Ivanhoe(…)“ Now when I read Tring, Jessica, I was just thrown back to the 8th of September again. What a plot!

As for the titan crew, they're already gone I'm sure. It's so sad of course, but that's Pluto in Capricorn, right? Their sinking into the titanic could be just a warning sign about what we're diving into - mighty titanic had, though segregated, over 3000 passengers of all social backgrounds: tiny titan had only five of the wealthiest - except maybe the french expert whose name rings a bell in a way. Hope this doesn't divert you, I'm not psychic, of course, this is all I've got. Love. L.
