Archive for the ‘SPIRITUAL DREAMS’ Category

I finally found a moment, in what has been an incredibly busy, crazy year, to sit and continue writing and share my spiritual journey.  When I last wrote – almost a year ago (!) – I shared a dream of Mary and the devotion to Mary as Undoer of Knots.  How much we need this devotion in our world today after unfolding events – particularly in my own country and city of Ottawa this past week.  The world seems to be unraveling with dizzying speed – even in my own little corner.  Canadians particularly this past week felt first-hand, in a horrifying way, the effects of evil – evil that arises out of the hearts of men.  It is getting harder and harder to not walk in fear.

However, we were not made to live in fear, but to live in love, peace and harmony.  It is a difficult thing to live in love, peace and harmony when your neighbour lives with hatred and fear, but again, it is out of the hearts of men that the condition of the world emerges – out of each and every heart.  That means that your heart makes a difference.  Your heart is the difference.  Your heart is the difference between hatred and love; evil and good; mistrust and trust; dissension and harmony; fear and peace.  It makes sense then to start with your own heart.

A friend of mine recently commented how shocking it is that only one evil person can create such enormous chaos, heartbreak, fear and pain with actions that emerge out of that heart, as we saw in Ottawa this week.  I admitted that this is true, but pointed out then how much power can emerge out of the heart of one who seeks to do good.  The balance is in the number of hearts and their choice for evil or good.  Every heart that decides to pursue truth, goodness and love automatically changes the direction of the world and the course of humanity for the better.  That is why I seek to spend as much free time in prayer and loving service as possible.  I have chosen that the intention of my heart and its actions are good.  Does this mean that it is easy?  No.  Does this mean that I do not ever make a mistake? No.  Does this mean that I am perfect – heck no!  But what it does mean, is that I try and never stop trying.  Every present moment is each person’s choice to try.  As we look at the world around us, it is ever more urgent that it be your choice to try.  This is what Mary is asking each soul to do in her purported revelation recently to a visionary in Medjugorje:

Dear children! Pray in this time of grace and seek the intercession of all the saints who are already in the light. From day to day may they be an example and encouragement to you on the way of your conversion. Little children, be aware that your life is short and passing. Therefore, yearn for eternity and keep preparing your hearts in prayer. I am with you and intercede before my Son for each of you, especially for those who have consecrated themselves to me and to my Son. Thank you for having responded to my call.”Message of October 25, 2014-www.medjugorje.org

Most people don’t tend to stop and think of how short and passing their life really is – without faith in a life after this one, that is too scary a thing to contemplate.  The reality is, as we have seen this past week, none of us really knows when our moment to leave this earth will be.  It makes sense then to start now to look at the inner person – the soul – and make an earnest effort to discover truth.  If one sets that intention, I guarantee you it will lead to Jesus.  I also guarantee that no matter what happens to you after that, it will also lead to peace – a peace this world so obviously cannot give.  Our time is short.  Some difficult things lie ahead.  However, God is amid it all.  It is only this knowledge and surety that keeps my feet firmly planted on the path of good, despite the world around me.  May this surety and peace come to rest in your heart and may you choose love and goodness, no matter the days ahead.

Having given this encouragement to begin or deepen your spiritual walk, I now share again difficult things that have been part of my spiritual walk for some time, and a continuation of my series on “The State of Chaos”.  Whether these crazy things I have dreamed become part of our reality or not, only time can answer.  However, I continue to stand as one who gives testimony to the deeper truth unfolding here – our spiritual truth – underlying spiritual truth that is hidden in the events of our world, but of utmost importance to each and every person.

Dreamt I was with friends/teammates.  I was in the neighbourhood of Heart’s Desire and I was going to help my son deliver a newspaper route in the neighbourhood.  He had just been given the job.  I said I would help him do it.  It was on an early morning route – the Globe & Mail, but I wanted to deliver it now while it was still daylight the day before to get a head start/jump on things.  I had the news the day before – I had it ahead of time.  There were only eight papers in the bundle.  We started to deliver the news and the dream changed.

All of a sudden out of the sky – clear – from nowhere – materialized and then dropped, were hoardes of giant yellow helicopters.  I knew they were the “black blobs” of the worldwide invasion dream (of Tuesday, June 12, 2007), and that it was the start of evil round-up and domination.

As I walked hurriedly with my group of friends/teammates, I started to warn them and any who would listen to invoke the Protection of the Precious Blood of Jesus over themselves – exhorting firmly, loudly and urgently.

Men streamed from the helicopters and they all had guns – like machine guns slung over the shoulder like militia/army – guerilla looking.  They were rounding people up and killing some.  It was chaos as people churned through the streets, afraid and unaware of what was occurring – looking for safety, but not knowing the real danger of the underlying evil behind all this.

As I went with my friends/teammantes, some got picked up – one perhaps killed.  I was exhorting a friend, Margaret (in the dream – means “Pearl”), to do the invocation.  She was a little embarrassed at me throwing “religious stuff” at hear.  I insisted.  I could see what was happening.  The ones not protected by Jesus were targeted and able to be seen and rounded up, questioned and killed if these militia men wanted to.  However, us who were protected by Jesus and ones who called on the Protection of the Precious Blood of Jesus, even as this was descending and unfolding, were all of a sudden completely immune as well.  I saw:  It was as if we were/became like invisible to this descending evil invasion.  They looked right through us and had no ability to harm us/touch us.

It was an eerie sensation being in the middle of this churning fear, chaos and horror in the streets – watching what they were doing to others that either chose not or could not hear the warnings – and being “invisible” and “untargettable” by this invasion hoarde.  My friend listened to me at the very last second and did as I said – mostly only because she found herself facing one militia ‘unit’ head-on directly and she fearfully did it to try to save her life – even though she didn’t really believe it would work.  She was instantly immune and became ‘invisible’ to their gaze and sight.

I saw another situation involving two men just before I woke.  It is hard to explain.  It was the fact that there had been two men – linked for some reason, but not sure how or why.  Then I saw the first of the two.  They (the militia) had got to him and he had been attacked.  He had the life sucked out of him and he had been bent and flattened and they had put him on ice in a locker with a glass door but he was not dead.  He was a prisoner of their forces.  The second man, who had the name Gary (means spear+brave) in the dream, took my advice and walked away with me and with others who were escaping.  We were free – we had become invisible and unable to be harmed or even targeted and we walked away free – gathering together – going somewhere, but I know not where.  I woke up.

Since I never read the news, watch the news, or listen to the news, I am very, very ignorant of worldwide events…but when I start to look for photos to use on this website, I am often linked to news websites that relate to the dreams I share here – and I am often shocked by what I read that is going on ‘out there’…and how it correlates to my dreams…but I still continue to hope, watch and pray – for discernment and courage – and hope that you out there are encouraged to also watch and pray, and to grow in love and spiritual deepening to face whatever lies in the days ahead.

I know it has been some time since I have been able to sit down and write.  It seems this fall has been a swirling mass of competing demands and change.  Is it only me, or is everyone experiencing this phenemenon; that life just seems to be going much faster than it was meant to?

Like all people, events sometimes unfold in my life where I wonder, now why did that have to happen?  Why such chaos when all one wants to do is good?  Perhaps therein lies the spiritual paradox.  As soon as one sets out on the path to goodness, the evil forces step up their unseen action of creating chaos in our midst to try to make us do less on the path of goodness.  How fortunate that they do not fully succeed!  However, for those times when life gets a little messy, Heaven has given additional aid, through our Heavenly Mother Mary (in addition to the aid we receive from the Holy Spirit).

For me, the devotion to Mary Undoer of Knots was really an unknown thing, as I am a Catholic Newbie.  It was only after I had the following dream that I heard our new Pope, Francis, has recommended this Novena to the Catholic Faithful as an extremely needed prayer solution to the knots of our individual lives and the life of the human race as a whole.  It was in this vein I believe, that Mary came to me again in a dream with a remedy – not only for the little knots in my life, but also for the ones that urgently need untying for the sake of humanity.  I bid you to heed with all seriousness her call to prayer!  We blind physical humans do not fully know or understand just what prayer does, as I ruminated upon in my last writing, where I discussed the tie between theoretical physics, prayer and the nature of reality.  Luckily faith does not demand that we understand, but only that we simply do, and do we must!  The future of your children’s world is at stake, as well as the salvation of countless beautiful souls buried underneath the hardened muck of sin.  Will you do what she asks?  Please read on…

Monday, September 9, 2013 – Approximately 4 a.m.

I had a dream that I was walking down the street in Westboro that ran near my Grandmother’s house.  As I walked past a park there I saw in the middle of it, at a bit of a distance away, the Virgin Mary.  She stood all in white with a blue mantle.  I immediately began speaking to her – telling her how much I loved her.  Then I asked her, “Blessed, blessed Mother, am I doing a good job for you or am I falling down flat on my face?”  (This was due to how I feel my life has been somewhat ‘messy’ these past few years with the people relationships in my life – oh how Satan loves to stir up controversy and angst in the life of a soul dedicated to God to try to get them off course!)

Mary then held up a short piece of thin rope and it had a knot in it at one end.  The piece she held up seemed 2″ long for some reason, but don’t ask me why.  I don’t remember exactly what she said to me, but it was a reference to her as “Mary, Undoer of Knots”.  She spoke something about mankind and the messes or situations that they found themselves in and I think there was a small part of the dream that had me trying to untie a convoluted knot myself (the knot of difficulties with a dear beloved friend).  But in the dream the short piece of rope she held up seemed so simple and straightforward – the knot even looked small and it was one simple knot.  I knew somehow as she spoke to me that I was to pray to her as “Mary, Undoer of Knots” to help solve/untie this knot/problem I was currently having, but she also spoke about the grave knots facing mankind in this time and that they must be placed in her hands to be ‘undone’ and for us to pray this Novena to her to achieve this.

In the dream when I was trying to untie the “knot” it was like a major quadruple knotted plastic bag tied super tight (you know how hard that slippery plastic can be, and we all just rip the bag instead of taking the time to untie the knots! – how true this is in our lives…), but in the dream Mary was so beautiful and simple and glorious as she stood amongst nothing but pure nature of green, green grass and trees – such simple, clean, gentle, breathtakingly airy simple surroundings in this park where I saw her (I later was describing the dream to a Catholic friend and gushingly said – It was just immaculate!” and it was only afterwards I realized the symbolism…)  This park where I saw her didn’t have one bit of refuse or any man-made thing in it – it was just pure nature surrounding her and the main focus of this moment in the dream was that the small piece of rope with the one small knot seemed so, so very small and simple to untie in her hands.  I realized immediately as she spoke to me that we spend so much time and energy trying to fix problems ourselves, that are quite heavily “knotted” and hard to “undo”, but in Mary’s hands they are simple and easy for our Mother to “undo” for us.  We just have to ask!

I awoke from the dream with the most beautiful feeling and immediately set about looking up this prayer to Mary as “Undoer of Knots”, as I did not know anything about it at the time, or that it was indeed a Novena.  I quickly found it online and immediately did the nine-day novena, not just to have her aid me in undoing the lovely messes of my own life, but especially for the very large messes of the human race.

The last thought I will leave you all with, as I share the following link to the Novena, is a gentle reminder, or perhaps mini-enlightenment:  We all spend so much time hurrying about, growing up, managing our lives, making our decisions, making our errors, celebrating our joys, grieving our losses, raising our children and caring for our parents;  And as we grow, we all think to ourselves how ‘adult’ we are (and it seems this mindset starts very young – ask anyone with a teenager…how they sometimes tell us we don’t know anything, when we parents see very clearly the blind steps they sometimes make and we just have to sit back and let them make their mistakes…).  Well you and I and the entire human race are sometimes like that teenager.  Somewhere along the line mankind forgot, or perhaps many never knew, that we are very much young children! Spiritual children!  There’s a reason the world has turned into a big sandbox where two year old’s throw sand at each other.  We don’t know it all – in fact we don’t know much!  If we did, and I speak here of the truth of God, love and the Commandments, the world would be a much better place.  It is time for all of us to truly grow into spiritual adults (which is really what our entire life here on earth is all about), and admit we need help.

I ask you now to have the courage and humility to recognize your spiritual childhood and ask for help from God, Jesus, your angels and our holy Mother to grow up well – for yourselves and for the sake of the future.  Please, if you have the time, look up the Novena and immediately set yourselves to this prayer.  The fate of your life, and that of the world, truly does rest in your hands.  If you place it in Mary’s and God’s hands it will be on the path to wonderful places.  God bless you all.

Yet again I have come to write about difficult things.  I share today the next very difficult dream that fell in succession in June of 2007.  While I share these things I truly believe that we as a collective human body have far more power than we realize to alter the course of humanity – specifically with prayer.

I have done much reading in the field of metaphysics and Quantum physics over the years, as my desire to delve deeply into the truth of our existence has not just ended with very vivid supernatural experiences.  Truth is truth.  We know much more about our world and the nature of our existence than ever before, but I believe we have oh-so much more to learn.  And learn it we should before we unravel this beautiful universe that was given to us by God.

I speak specifically of the great power of prayer.  Even mainstream secular society is buzzing at “The Secret” and ‘the power of intention’ and ‘directed thought’ etc…What more is this but prayer?  I believe very strongly that an American theoretical physicist by the name of David Bohm was onto a great theory that helps explain the puzzle of our existence and nature of our being.  This piece, rather than being contradictory to the timeless teachings of religion, specifically Christianity, rather enhances it.  I give you a quote from Wikipedia that explains why I see a connection between this physicist’s work and the teachings of religion – particularly on prayer:

Bohm views physical processes as determined by information of more and more subtle levels which interact, and does not limit this consideration to matter alone. In an article of 1990, A new theory of the relationship of mind and matter, he resumes his view that there exists a close link to mental processes: “the whole notion of active information suggests a rudimentary mind-like behaviour of matter”. In his view, mental processes as well can be understood as representing levels of activity of increasing subtlety which act upon each other. He recalls that thought is intricately connected with physical reactions, as is known from everyday experience. Yet on the mental side, action as response to information need not be immediate; rather, in some cases at least, it can be mediated by “suspension” of physical action and the resulting train of thought. Bohm suggests that the mental and the physical sides, which he sees as two “poles” of a unified whole, are closely interlinked and that “at each level, information is the bridge or link between the two sides”. A relationship between the mental and matter may exist at indefinitely great levels of subtlety, while nonetheless each kind and level of mind may have a relative autonomy and stability. His article concludes with the statement that “knowledge of matter (as well as of mind) has changed in such a way as to support the approach that has been described here. To pursue this approach further might perhaps enable us to extend our knowledge of both poles into new domains”.[22]

As most devout Catholics know, there have been an explosion of Marian apparitions throughout the world in the past century; particularly growing as our knowledge and use of it for evil has exponentially grown.  In all these apparitions the Virgin Mary says many things, but always places great emphasis on prayer: Pray, pray pray!”  I have personally followed several purported visionaries and anyone else who does knows what I say here to be true.  So I ask you, why her overwhelming urging that we pray?…

I believe it is because she knows what we are only tremblingly stumbling upon in our investigation of reality by learned minds.  Directed thought – which is prayer – creates and changes our reality.  I believe it is somewhat like being a lucid dreamer in a dream, although we just do not know that we are ‘lucid dreaming’!  I share this belief with you today only because God has seen fit to show me many things over the past 13 years.  I recall particularly one dream where I was shown energy waves, assembling energy particles and then finally a ‘finished’ assembled state of those energy particles into a ‘thing’.   Scientists are already revealing that everything that we think of as ‘solid matter’ is in fact just arranged energy patterns.  Because I have experienced so many mini-enlightenments through dreams, it has spurred me to do my own reading and research into time, theoretical physics, quantum physics and metaphysics.  However, I am no scientist.  I am just a muddler who is trying to assemble a picture of the elephant by examining the trunk and the tail (science and religion) and everything in between!  It will be for the continuing evolution of humanity to use any fodder my experiences may have provided to the truth of our existence to broaden the picture of our reality.

I share this with you to urge you to pray!!!

I do not believe humanity’s course is set.  I believe prayer can make the greatest difference!  Because of what I have experienced and because I am Catholic I believe strongly that the prayer of the Rosary is one of the most powerful we can utter.  I know non-Catholic Christians usually have a problem with this, but indeed look at what it is:  On a surface level, it is simply our prayer that Mary (who we all agree was the Mother of Jesus) pray for us!  If Jesus loved His mother more than any other human, will He not especially be attuned to her prayer?  Will her prayer not be an incredibly powerful directed-energy-thought?  Secondly, in a deeper way, the rosary leads us to the life of Christ as we meditate on the mysteries of His life.

As a former Protestant, I do not really understand why non-Catholics have such a problem with this prayer.  My feeling is that they do not understand prayer well enough and do not understand Jesus and the love for His mother well enough either.  It is much simpler than all the rhetoric tries to make it. In reality, all prayer is intended to lead us to Jesus.  This can help us in the dialogue as Christians – Mary always leads us to Jesus.  Prayer is also our speaking to God and developing a very personal relationship with Him and the person of Jesus Christ.

Regardless, as I sat to write today, this is the ‘gumball colour’ that dropped out of the gum machine when I sat to pray for guidance in my writing today and subsequent sharing of my next dream experience.  I believe this was Holy Spirit directed, because while I share some difficult dreams (which I always say could just be completely only my own inner fodder), I believe we have incredible power of prayer at our fingertips…or thoughts which can have an immense impact on the direction of the course of humanity.  I particularly offer a challenge to the MEN of our generation to get praying!!!  We women are getting tired!!!  I offer a challenge indeed then to all humanity to get off their couches and pray – for good of course!  There are already too many people out their praying and directing their thoughts to evil…as we see splattered on our news every day…

And so with all of this in mind I share another difficult dream which perhaps can be changed (if it is a portent of the future and not some bit of undigested cheese) by ALL OF OUR UNITED THOUGHTS, PRAYERS AND EFFORTS!  Heed my words so we don’t have to remember this dream later as being reality!

Friday, June 29, 2007

I had another nightmare of the start of world domination by evil black forces and black-suited men – militia.  They streamed over the sides of buildings very suddenly into the streets and started rounding people up.  These black outfitted men were EVERYWHERE in the streets.  There was also something to do with hand gestures.

(I have been personally wondering about this as being a future method of communication among these evil forces – am hearing about it in a few places that I believe are ‘dark’ or satanic and in masonic rituals and meetings)…

I then saw stages like doorways from one time to the next.  I saw “Upper Daylight”.  I saw that there will be three stages of daylight like the three stages of the paleolithic period.  There will be ‘upper’, ‘middle’ and ‘lower’ daylight.  I said to myself as it began:

If this is upper daylight, I don’t want to see middle and lower!”

I was at this point watching a militia-type situation unfold, but it was scary and unpleasant with fighting etc.  I then saw a stream of people as they began to trek – seemed like away from cities to remote areas.  I saw them coming.  I was with people doing battle – on the inside of some kind of building.  A communique then came to me that Pope John Paul II had left a detailed written account of visions/information for us in this future and it was being held in an archive somewhere.  He had written a lengthy, published article and it was in something that looked like a magazine.  It was brownish and had a circle on the front and it had his picture on it.  Somehow someone who worked in archives was able to smuggle out a copy to me for “us common people” for our information and help in defending against what was coming:  Upper daylight first, then middle, then lower…

As a final note, a priest mentioned to me that  Pope John Paul’s understanding of prayer was that, “our prayers are answered in prayer.” Pope John Paul II seems to be saying that prayer is not so much that we try to bend the will of God to our desires but that, in prayer, we come to know God’s will and desire for us…

Oh how I feel like Scrooge these days!  How I long for time to not bear me out and for me to discover I was only dreaming…But just in case,

PRAY!!!
