One
of two recent dreams, both of which evoke the recent events of my going
back to the Catholic practices of saying the Holy Mass and reciting
the Holy Rosary. Here Bishop Fulton J. Sheen and Our Holy Mother appear
to me! |
RASA'S DREAM & INTERPRETATION
A truly wonderful dream. It happens at my apartment in Brooklyn, which means 'this concerns Purgatory.'
This is a meeting, a conclave, of priests. And Bishop Sheen arrives!
I am standing with my back to the sink, and to the right, in front of a huge window, is the kitchen table. There are sitting about five male priests, sort of casual, one this way, one that, around the table.
There are two women priests here, myself, and a 'big lady' with a lustrous silver-black cassock.
I see Bishop Sheen hovering over the table with the priests, sort of bending toward them. He is our leader, and there is a wonderful feeling coming from him. The feeling is blissful all around, because we are all ONE in fellowship and mission. It is a feeling of rightness, purpose, mission, togetherness.
As I stand, leaning back on the sink, with my arms casually folded over my chest, I look down at my cassock, which seems to rather cling to my body neatly and gracefully, and on the bottom perhaps some of the buttons are open so in the flap, my legs might be seen slightly folded one over the other. I am so comfortable in my outfit, which is a black matte, and it is soft, not stiff and starchy like some of them.
Across from me there is only one other woman priest, and she is 'big.' She might weight over 200 pounds and be 5'10" or so, and her cassock is black, but has lustrous silver in it. It strikes me that we are the only females here. She standing very close to the archbishop, by the stove there.
I love him so much that when our meeting is over, I follow him or appear where he is at, as he is leaving. It is a kind of empty mall, surrounded by buildings, like cement everywhere. But nothing unpleasant, just that we are all alone. I approach him like a fan would a star, and do not know what transpires, just that I did connect somehow, alone.
MEANING:
'A truly wonderful dream. It happens at my apartment in Brooklyn, which means 'this concerns Purgatory.'
MEANING: A personal symbol because my ministry to Purgatory
officially started there in 1981
'The apartment is painted with strong light yellow shiny, and trimmed with green.'
MEANING: THIS SHOWS LIGHT AND LIFE
'This is a meeting, a conclave, of priests. And Bishop
Sheen arrives!'
MEANING: He is himself, a friend, a mentor in Heaven. He represents the Catholic Church, and I am doing something concerning the Catholic Church, and his presence here sanctions it in a big way! This is the proof I need that I am doing right, as yesterday I wondered if my rosaries and Masses were effective!
'I am standing with my back to the sink, (leaning back
on it)'
MEANING: THIS MEANS WASHING, CLEANING, AND THAT IS PURGATORY. THAT HEARKENS BACK TO MY FIRST OFFICIALLY RECEIVED CLIENT, ERROL FLYNN. OUR HOLY MOTHER APPEARED TO ME, WASHING DISHES IN MY SINK THERE IN BROOKLYN. I SAW CLEAN GLASSES, AND THE CLEAN GLASSES SHOW THE SOUL THAT HAS HAD THE EFFECTS OF SIN REMOVED. BEING SO REMOVED, THE GLASS, OR PERSON, IS TRANSPARANT, AND THERE IS NOTHING BLOCKING THE VISION BETWEEN THEMSELVES AND GOD.
'...and to the right, in front of a huge window, is the kitchen table.'
MEANING: Window is opportunity. Here light or truth or an opening is available. Table is fellowship and communion. Since we are speaking of Purgatory, this will specifically hearken to the Altar. In fact, I do not stand at my Communion Altar, I sit.
'There are sitting about five male priests, sort of
casual, one this way, one that, around the table'.
MEANING: This might be saying that my clients will receive the Masses from beyond the ones that I am saying - the merits of perhaps five more may be given to my clients, said by other priests! (I do pray the St. Gertrude prayer of uniting all the world's Masses for the Souls in Purgatory daily)
'There are two women priests here, myself, and a 'big
lady' with a lustrous silver-black cassock.'
MEANING: I know by discernment and deduction this is Our Holy Mother. Her bigness here is Her importance. She is the Chief Priest to Purgatory, hence Her cassock. The silver is Her special privileges. No priest wears such a cassock, but She does.
I know from saints that she is ever-present in Purgatory, and I know from my own experience, she is frequently concerned with my work.
I see Bishop Sheen hovering over the table with the priests, sort of bending toward them. He is our leader, and there is a wonderful feeling coming from him. The feeling is blissful all around, because we are all ONE in fellowship and mission. It is a feeling of rightness, purpose, mission, togetherness.
MEANING: This says I belong here, this is my place. I am a priest of the Church of Jesus and Mary! Mary is my Mother, Guru, my Light. Archbishop Sheen represents Our Lord and we have been close before. I am one of them! What is so blissful is the belonging, the Oneness!
'As I stand, leaning back on the sink, with my arms casually folded over my chest, I look down at my cassock, which seems to rather cling to my body neatly and gracefully, and on the bottom perhaps some of the buttons are open so in the flap, my legs might be seen slightly folded one over the other. I am so comfortable in my outfit, which is a black matte, and it is soft, not stiff and starchy like some of them.'
MEANING: This shows the absolute rightness and also the HIGH DIGNITY of this office - to summon the Body and Blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ!
The arms and legs across each other hearkens, also, to the Egyptian Kings and Queens. This is an elevated state. Another aspect is the CROSS, as both arms and legs ACROSS one another signify this. To repeat the Holy Sacrifice of Our Lord's death with each Mass, is a splendid and Infinitely Sublime privilege.
'Across from me there is only one other woman priest, and she is 'big.' She might weight over 200 pounds and be 5'10" or so, and her cassock is black, but has lustrous silver in it. It strikes me that we are the only females here. She standing very close to the archbishop, by the stove there.'
MEANING: Here Our Lady is standing near the stove. Stove can mean HEART and also WOMB. As heart, it would be center of life, love, and that is what the Eucharist and ministering to Purgatory is about. As womb, it means the spiritual womb of Our Lady who gives birth to Her children, gets them born again. The stove is also the place of baking bread, which is the element Our Lord will change into Himself.
'I love him so much that when our meeting is over, I follow him or appear where he is at, as he is leaving. It is a kind of empty mall, surrounded by buildings, like cement everywhere. But nothing unpleasant, just that we are all alone. I approach him like a fan would a star, and do not know what transpires, just that I did connect somehow, alone.'
MEANING: In the context of this dream, it seems that I am thanking Bishop Sheen for this boon, this gift. Perhaps he is instrumental in getting me back to the Purgatorial Mass and rosary ministry! I have had a relationship with him since early childhood by way of his tv show in the fifties. It makes sense that he would come and help me here, and I am so grateful!
