Last night I had a dream where an elderly gentleman was showing me how to pray the Rosary in particular way according to the days of the week. I don´t remember the specifics of how it was exactly he taught me but after he was finished teaching me he kept saying over and over one word. All I could make out phonetically was what sounded like ¨tepeyac¨. After his saying this word over and over I woke up at exactly 3am in the morning with this word stuck in my head.

So I decided to look it up on my Kindle… I fired my Kindle up and got on google search… I typed in the words exactly this way ¨tepeyac+rosary" and immediately got hits on my search and I was astounded at what it meant. The word “tepeyac” was the indian name for the hill on which Our Lady of Guadalupe appeared to St. Juan Diego. :eek:

Now, being hispanic I know the story of Our Lady of Guadalupe forwards and backwards but I had never heard of the name of the hill in the language of the indians of St. Juan Diego’s time. And to top it all off today is the feast day of St. Juan Diego. 😃

I wonder if this is St. Juan Diego’s way of telling me to pay more attention to Our Lady of Guadalupe and to pray the rosary better! It also makes me think whether the elderly gentleman in the dream teaching me how to pray the rosary in a specific way was Juan Diego himself… :hmmm: If only I could remember more of that part of the dream too!

This is the second time that I have had a saint give me a spiritual nudge in a very in your face kind of way…but that’s a story for another thread. lol

I thought some of you might be interested in my little story… 🙂

God bless
 
Very interesting!

I have dreams sometimes that are very, very detailed. I think the brain stores everything you ever hear, read, experience… It does seems wonderful when our dreams lead us somewhere we need to be. Personally, I’m inclined to believe it’s the subconscious working things out and putting it in dreams. I would love to believe that a saint is putting an idea on the forefront for me.

I do love hearing about your experience and I’m going to look this information up for myself. Thanks!

:hug1:
 
I tend to believe in the mystical, especially in dreams, because this is the way most of my experiences work as well. I tend to believe that we are more receptive to God’s word within dreams. Joseph and many other Saints were reached through dreams.

This is absolutely wonderful and I’m so glad you shared that with us!
 
Thanks for all of your responses to my thread and you´re very welcome. 🙂 🙂 🙂

I kind of think that this dream was a way to light a fire under my bottom as I have become a bit lukewarm in the faith. I hate when I get like that because I often get hit with such dryness in prayer and feel God so far away.

When I told my mother about the dream she looked at me and shook her head in that motherly way where words aren´t needed and I understood her head shaking as her way of telling me to get my act together. 😛

God bless

TempleofTheSoul The story of your dream is absolutely captivating. Everytime, I read or listen to anything related to Our Lady of Guadalupe I am moved to the point of tears.

Maybe, the dream is simply a blessing in itself – the fact that you dreamt this on the Feast Day of Our Lady of Guadalupe. However, if you believe it to be much “more” than ask for the intercession of St. Juan Diego and Our Lady of Guadalupe.
