Meeting Holy Mother Mary in my dreams

I have been saying the Rosary for the past two years on and off, and what I mean by on and off is saying it daily for one to three months then take a week or few days off from saying it daily to saying it daily for months at a time. I am Catholic, born and raised into Catholicism and attended Catholic school. With that said, I had a dream, a very vivid dream of Holy Mary, She was dressed in a pink and royal purple color robes and was extremely beautiful, she looked directly at me and then She took Her hands and placed my head on Her lap. It was like when a mother places her child's head on her lap to calm and sooth the child. When She did this I never felt more calm and at peace in my entire life. I forgot all my worries and anxiety and it felt so powerfully good I never wanted to move from Her. It was literally less then five seconds and I then woke up in my bed. I was startled at first and then just quietly went back to sleep. When morning came I remembered the dream and the feeling from Holy Mary. I wanted to go back to that feeling, it resonated with me to this day and I prayed thanking Her for that brief moment.
Now I have recounted the dream to only a small number of people and now to anyone i this forum, and every time I do I swell up with emotion and tears and it becomes difficult to get through telling the dream to someone with out crying, but it is an emotional somewhat happy cry, no sadness. What does anyone think she was trying to convey to me other than calming me down? Anything I should dive deeper into or take it as it was given?

Sounds like that is the obvious answer, and it is probably right.

Unless you feel a need to change the routine, I wouldn't.
 
I had a similar dream many years ago. Whether it was indeed Our Lady manifesting herself to me, or simply my brain knitting together something in my sleep from random psychological impulses, I cannot know. Either way, such dreams are indeed very comforting.
