Meditation Diaries

Many times when we are in Meditation, we have visions that can be very significant to our daily lives and spiritual and emotional growth.  Many times when we have these visions, or glimpses and mini movies during meditation, but we do not know what they mean. I believe that the universe shows us things in such mysterious ways when our attention is needed. How can we understand these messages?  Often times when I have the vision, I don't really know what it means, but then I will share it with a friend or family member and suddenly, I begin to see what the message is speaking to me.  Sometimes I will just jump up and right off the bat, I know what it means.  Other times I am baffled for days or even weeks sometimes even longer, and then one day someone will say something, or I will hear a song, that I have heard a thousand times over and I finally hear the meaning of the song or phrase of the song.  I'll remember the vision I had weeks ago and it will all tie into each other as a synchronicity.  Suddenly I will be thinking to myself...Wow!  "So that is what that meant. ", Or I will share the vision I had weeks ago with someone and as the words are coming out of my mouth I am awakened to the meaning, right in that moment.  

I would like to share some of my visions with everyone who chooses to read this blog.  Please feel free to comment.  I would love to hear what people have to say about it all.

I was standing in a building and to my left was a large glass rectangular window.  Outside the window was a lt. blue Mini Van, parallel parked on the street outside the building, and cars going by randomly on the street.  My attention was drawn to a big beautiful green grassy hill, across the street.  I began to float through the window and up the grassy hill. At the top of the hill was a small but very thick forest, of the most beautiful and lush green trees I had ever seen! Words cannot express what I felt when I laid my eyes upon it! I instantly began to cry. Not in the vision, because it was a vision and not a dream.  I was awake and aware that I was meditating.  It's hard to explain, but while in the moment of that vision, I am taken to a place I do not know.  It is a place that feels free from all the chaos, constraints and responsibilities that life feels like. 
What did that mean to me? 
 I think the thick forest I was looking at was my universe, that which makes up who and what I am as a whole being.  I was looking at myself in a different perspective.  Someone who loves nature and connects deeply with.  Someone who feels profoundly calm around it and so much more! To see myself in such a different light, in a way that I never knew existed within me.  The beauty was uncanny!  Perhaps it was a way for me to see myself as a beautiful soul!  To step outside of the egoic mind and truly see myself, without all the garbage from the conditional world, piled on top of me.  I had such admiration and gratitude for the privilege to see such a wonder and beauty that lies deep within me! Yet it was like the flicker of a light.  When I felt the love, the peace and grounding energy that came from it, it literally touched the deepest part of my heart, and that is when I began to cry.  I wasn't able to see myself, until that moment.  I will never forget that moment, and I hope that every soul on the planet has or will experience that very profound moment of seeing and feeling their own beauty and love within, when the time is right for them.
Dare to venture within your forest?!
There is so much love within you!
