August 8th, 1998 (DAY 2 con't)

About 8 months before I left for RLC, I had practiced with Lotje at home a hypnosis technique, called REGRESSION.
In this regression, I saw images of a previous life:
caves in France, holes in the grounds, access to caves, vineyards (which is according to Bruna, the symbol of the Grail family) and a feeling of MYSTERY and something hidden in the caves.
What is most important to know, is that when I had this regression, it wasn't publicly known then that GKIII would take place in RLC, and obviously I had no knowledge of the mystery whatsoever.
You're going to call me crazy, but I was still figuring out...if PERHAPS what she said couldn't be true?? Of course..I stayed critical ALL the TIME.

Bruna felt how skeptical I was, so she proposed me to ask something to myself before going to bed... "Ask if you are a member of the Grail family and if you can have a clear dream that can point you out an answer."
I agreed..we'll see.

After this incredible WEIRD morning and afternoon, Lotje and I needed some time to be on our own to think a bit.
Believe it or not...this is HEAVY stuff to deal with.
So we went to our room and decided to go for a walk Arrived in my room, I got the sudden feeling that Bruna was talking the truth, and I felt a DUTY to examine this further.
(I know this all sounds INCREDIBLE!!)
And so Lotje stayed in the room and I went back downstairs, looking for Bruna.
Bruna and I decided to pay a visit to the "Museum" in RLC and then do the tour in the "Domaine de l'abbé Saunière" to visit the Tour de Magdala, etc...
During our visits our discussions always went on, Bruna couldn't stop talking about a place in the neighborhood, I never heard of: "LA PIQUE" which was "beaucoup important" and the fact that both of us arrived on the same day was also "beaucoup étrange" (two of here favorite sentences, that aren't even proper French, but mean: 'very important' and 'very strange').

I DO realize that there's still SOOOOOO much I need to read before actually being able to DO something here.
But I fear for spoiling my GK III experience (like it isn't spoiled already *grin*)
In the meantime it was already 7.30pm and I felt a little guilty for leaving Lotje alone in the room, so I decided to go back and said goodbye to Bruna.

Apparently the bird flew away, cause Lotje wasn't in the room, she had the keys so I couldn't get in....cool!
So I decided to go for an intuitive walk and within 5 minutes I bumped on her (OK, RLC isn't that big *grin* but yet..)

7.30pm
Bruna, Lotje and I are having dinner in 'La Pomme Bleu', the 2nd restaurant in RLC (and LAST to my list IMHO).
Coincidentally we came upon some Belgians there that live in the area for about 5 years now, all at once I thought about our good old Jane Jensen and started to make some publicity for GKIII.
The people were very excited about it and were already planning to buy it for their son..
This is the point where I sighed...when will people realize that computer games aren't SOLELY for Children!!!

Together we compared books and notes, I tagged along in my rucksack all the paper stuff and books from home...pretty crazy.
(BTW, I also found some very cool stuff in the local book shop in RLC, but I won't put any of that stuff on the Internet before GKIII is out)
After that wonderful conversation in my own language, we realized that we sort of forgot that Bruna was ALSO sitting at our dinner table, so I moved my head to her direction and from then on we discussed about the usual theories, which were all "beaucoup étrange".
Main subject of interest was ARMAGEDDON, no..not the movie.
but the elaborate explanation of the 9 transformations and the picking sides for the ultimate battle between good and evil.
For some reason I mostly forgot what she told about all that...but I believe it's a LITTLE out of my league anyway...
It was all pretty interesting, but the fact that Bruna neglected almost ANY other already existing theory on the mystery, made me wonder what to think of it all.
Like I hadn't wondered enough this day already...
And yet Bruna appeared to be a VERY intelligent woman, but why on earth would she need ME for her already 15 years experience on this mystery.
I wondered and wondered...

Why is 1 day in Rennes-le-Château, more exciting, nerve-wracking, interesting and adventurous then one MONTH in my daily life?
Well, I'm not going to let myself be carried away...enough for today I think.

8.30pm
Lotje and I decide to take that walk we already planned for this afternoon, trying to forget a bit about all the things that happened today.
The walk in the sunset is BEAUTIFULL, I'm quoting Jane Jensen again:
"This is one of the most beautiful, desolate landscape I've ever seen"

10.00pm
The heat and the air makes one tired quite soon in this region.
But I presume it's not only the weather this time. ;-)
Now I'm lying in my bed, writing this diary.
Right in front of our bedroom window lies the front garden of the Villa Bethania, where a lecture is now held on "SECTS"
The lecture is kind of expensive and we're real tired, so Lotje and I decided to stay home...Bruna off course is now sitting in that garden...why am I not surprised?
At the point I'm about to close this diary, I suddenly hear a voice on the microphone It's the mysterious woman we spoke with this afternoon, apparently she is starting a discussion at the lecture and even MORE apparently, no one seems to care what she is saying..
I get the feeling she's a bit of an outcast in the village, but aren't they all?

Oh yes, before I forget I really need to write down the dream I had 2 days before I left for RLC, and I must tell Bruna about it tomorrow!
I dreamt that my uncle/priest was in our house and that he insisted on talking with me.
(big deal, I HATE the bastard, if it weren't from the fact that dreaming of a "priest" means being initiated into sacred affairs!!!)
Now that's weird, especially knowing that I'm now in the surrounding of a MYSTERY that MIGHT have sacred secrets.
The other I dreamt was of water that was crawling up against the wall, like vines.
Dream interpretation says this means: coming on a HIGHER level psychologically/spiritually.

Coincidence or not...we must admit that the dream is VERY MUCH relevant... but more on that tomorrow...
