Reading my previous post will enlighten you to the significance of February 3,… and August 27th is the day my dad passed away last year, so an addition to the “Targeting Family Deaths” pattern cluster. .
Since we have a “June 12, 13, 14, __, 16, __,… 19/ Date Sequence” pattern cluster . So bridging the June 15 gap, using the formula as per usual, and taking into consideration the “Off by One” pattern cluster, we arrive at:
- 2001 – Henri Alekan, French cinematographer (born 1909)
Henri Alekan (10 February 1909 – 15 June 2001)
1889 – Mihai Eminescu, Romanian journalist, author, and poet (born 1850)
Mihai Eminescu (born Mihail Eminovici; 15 January [O.S. 3 January] 1850 – 15 June [O.S. 3 June] 1889)
- 1888 – Ramón López Velarde, Mexican poet and author (died 1921)
Ramón López Velarde (June 15, 1888 – June 19, 1921)
Note Alekan’s birthday is Tomorrow, so an addition to the “Off by One” pattern cluster… AND the “Timely” pattern cluster. Mihai’s birthday, January 15, is also the birthday of my son and ex-life partner … they are 22 years apart… to the DAY!! Ramon’s date of death adds to the cluster:
- June 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, __,… 19(x2)/ Date Sequence” pattern cluster
I’ll leave June 17 for … whoever?!
