Something Fishy - Madeleine McCann and Plymouth
With reference to my previous post about the disappearance of Madeleine McCann and in view of the publicity once again being garnered by the case, this is probably a good time to re-show the astrological mapping technique which I revealed in 2007 firmly links Madeleine to Southern Portugal (Praia da Luz) and to the area of Plymouth +/- 30 miles which therefore encompasses Exeter. If you are wondering why this is relevant, please click on this link and this where other bloggers (who are unknown to me) have also noted the connections to this location.
Having read those lists, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see that this Portugal/Plymouth (Exeter) link probably needs pursuing when the Metropolitan Police Force review the case. Not least because whilst reading the book, Madeleine, I noted there is a discrepancy in it regarding the number of times that Gerry McCann had visited Portugal before the fated trip in 2007.
Kate McCann alludes to the fact in her book that she feels very alone and as if no one is paying attention to the minute detail, like she is, in the search for her daughter. However, I can assure her there are plenty of mothers, fathers and people from all walks of life and professions who have followed every nuance of this over the years in the hope of helping her to locate her little girl and solve this mystery. Not only is there a burning desire to see justice done, but if we don't know what really happened how can anyone prevent it happening again.
So with super sleuth hat on, in Gerry McCann's Witness Statement (see here) taken in the presence of an interpreter, Natália Carvalho Ferreira de Almeida in 2007, it says 'When asked, he said that he had already been to Portugal in 1994. He stayed in an apartment on the outskirts of Albufeira. He has only returned to Portugal on this occasion'
but on page 42 of her book Madeleine, Kate says:
"I'd never been to Portugal, although Gerry had been there on a couple of golfing trips a few years before"
There may be an easy explanation but as one assertion is in a legal statement and the other in a book which is seeking to convey only the facts so that her daughter might be located, I found this a bit strange. Did Gerry have recent connections to Portugal or not? The police will surely have checked with passport records.
Kate McCann was born under the sign of the fishes, Pisces. The sign is also associated with sacrifice and rose coloured glasses. This is also the sign which exists on the Chaos/Control Pisces/Virgo spectrum, compounded by the controlling Mars/Saturn conjunction in her natal chart, in Kate this could give rise to extremes of self denial and 'control freakery'. Pisceans are great at empathising and intuiting but not always so good as sorting fact from fiction, although their life path might require them to face that very task.
So if Kate is telling the truth in her book, she may just have got 'confused'. Either that or the more unpalatable option exists that Gerry was not telling the truth to her (and she believed him) and/or he was not telling the truth in his statement. The final possibility is that it was simply a very bad translation error so I am not trying to imply anything here, just noting the discrepancies. I'm also not implying that Gerry McCann took his own daughter but the astrology does show that there may be something he's involved with or has been involved with which made his daughter a target and it's surely worth ruling out.
What is the extent of these connections back to England and how could it have impacted the choice to holiday in this resort in 2007?
One other discrepancy I noticed, having previously read all of the witness statements, is that Kate McCann says that when she went into the apartment to do her check (where she discovered Madeleine missing) she glanced over to Madeleine's bed and at first couldn't make out in the dark if she was there or not and didn't want to put the light on, but in Matthew Oldfield's statement he said it had been light enough at the previous check to see the twins breathing in their cots without even getting as far as the bedroom door. Both of these statements can't be right; it has to be extremely light to see a baby (babies) chest rising and falling as they breathe.
Matthew Oldfield's statement, verbatim, says: "So I approached the room but I didn't actually go in because you could see the twins in the cots and one of the, you could see the twins in the cots because they're in with, sort of the cots were in the middle of the room with sort of a gap of about sort of maybe a foot between the two, the cots had sort of got that fabric end and sort of a mesh side, so you could see the sides and you could see them, erm, see them breathing and there were two there and it was all completely quiet. And the other things you could see in the room, there was a, there was another bed at the back underneath the window at the far side and you could see the end of the bed, another bed here".
The statements say that Matthew had earlier listened in on Madeleine and the twins by standing close to the shutters but upon returning to the table he says that he thought it was a bit odd when Gerry insisted on going again to check - despite the fact that there was an obviously more relaxed attitude about who checked who's kids on that particular night.
He says:
"So, erm, back to the table, erm, we have, oh, back to the table, Gerry got up to go and, to go and check on his kids, I mean, and I'd come back and said, you know, I didn't hear any noise when I listened outside your room, so I thought it was a little bit odd that, you know, not kind of a wounded pride that he sort of didn't trust me, but, erm, I just thought, oh, you know, I've just checked you don't really need to check and sort of, you know, sort of go back, but, erm, he sort of got up and went back to check on, erm, on his kids"
and in the interview
4078 "Okay. So Gerry has gone off almost straight away after you got back?"
Reply "Yeah".
4078" And then Jane followed him?"
How annoyed was Matthew Oldfield by this? What did make Gerry go back?
Some of the more obvious questions don't even seem to have been raised or answered in Kate McCann's book. Who for example, except the cleaners, tradespeople who had visited the apartment and the friends in the group would have known that children were sleeping in that room and therefore that particular shutter was the one to aim for if, as Kate informs us, Mark Warner had originally put the cots in the other bedroom. (See p45). Which in turn raises the question, who could have had a key to the apartment?
Did friends of the apartment owner** Ruth McCann (no relation) and previous guests of theirs at that apartment still have keys?? Had the apartment ever been on the market. Did an Estate Agent ever have a key to it? Perhaps the shutter was raised - as Kate McCann says it was - to ensure no-one was outside the front door (See p46) when they left via the door or to ventilate the room of the odour of something and not open for someone to climb through. Who had the key to the apartment in their possession that night? If an intruder entered by the open patio door they surely wouldn't need a key to exit by the front door anyway and finally I have to ask this one although I have never been able to bring myself to suspect the involvement of Mrs McCann; why did she not immediately start calling, if not screaming Madeleine's name out when she discovered her missing?
Although the Tapas bar was in almost full view of the apartment's balcony Kate McCann didn't scream across from there and stay to protect her remaining children from harm but ran all the way down the path to the entrance from the street before saying words to the effect of 'She has gone' - this is not conjecture, all the witness statements confirm this. Why would someone who by her own admission many times in the book is almost paranoid about her children's safety, health and wellbeing do that?
Venus was coming into alignment with Pluto that night, Venus rules Taureans and Pluto Scorpio's. What people born under the birthsign of Scorpio was Madeleine (Venus) connected with on that holiday - especially those with connections to Plymouth? Or does Pluto describe an obsessive person and not a Scorpio? The aspect for Venus and Pluto is one I have written about on many occasions, it's not only connected with hidden financial matters but also hidden passions and the 'if I can't have you nobody else will' type jealous (and often obsessive and revengeful) passion or the 'that will teach you' type retribution. Was everybody in that group faithful to each other? Was there some seething hidden resentment occurring somewhere or money owed? By taking Madeleine one thing was for sure, both parents would openly suffer, no one's life would remain the same and the group would be bonded together for life.
None of the questions asked so far have unearthed a motive for this crime so surely it is time to start thinking out of the box?
