3 Types of Meditation Visions and Their Meanings You Need to Know

Many people who practice meditation have visions during meditation. These visions that occur during meditation can be something that you seem to experience during the process, they are not real but your subconscious perceives them as real.

This is not an ordinary experience, and everyone doesn’t have such visions during meditation. Meditation is a spiritual process, you need to know that the visions you see during meditation have meanings.

These visions occur where your meditation practice is somewhere between sleep and wakefulness. Your subconscious mind plays a vital role in the visions you see during meditations.

As a meditation practitioner, it is imperative to know the types of meditation visions and their meaning as well as why and how they occur.

There are many meditation visions and their meanings, however, there are three main types.

It can be a light, color or even symbol (or shape). The vision that you see has its roots in the spirituality of your mind at that time.

Sometimes you see a mix of things. It is important to note that clustered images mean nothing but a distraction of thoughts during meditation.

Visions of Light During Meditation and their Meanings

According to spiritual experiences by Swami Vivekananda, you will visualize different lights during your meditation journey.

It happens many times that a meditator experiences flashes of light or lights in particular shapes. Sometimes you may think that it can cause stress to your eyes.

However, that is not the case here.

You don’t need to worry about the light you happen to visualize in your mind during meditation. Visions during meditation don’t cause harm in that way.

They can reduce your concentration. You should not get distracted and focus on the practice. It often happens when you are close to your spiritual self, and at that time, you come across visions during meditation.

There can be different kinds of light that you see as visions during meditation. It can be a bright white light. The size of a pinpoint appears on the forehead at the space between the eyebrows.

The colors of the lights you visualize are different, and there can be flashes of light, fire-flies, moon, stars, sun, and charcoal. Yellow and white lights are common visions during meditation.

There is a combination of yellow and white light that people frequently visualize. In early days, it is the small balls of white light which floats about before the mind’s eye.

When you start observing such light, then you should know that your spiritual self is getting accustomed to meditation and you are immersing yourself into deep meditation. This happens when your concentration and focus increases in meditation.

After some months of your meditation journey, you will start observing that the size of light you visualize has started increasing.

In the beginning, these lights are not steady, and they flicker. They intermittently come and disappear from your vision. They flash out from the forehead and the sides. These lights cause a sensation of joy and happiness in your mind, and you start desperately wanting these visions in meditation to appear again.

However, you need to ensure that your desperation doesn’t lead to distraction of thoughts. You don’t need to force yourself to visualize.

With consistent practice of two to three hours in the morning or night, these visions during meditation start appearing frequently, and they start remaining steady for a long time.

The vision of light can be helpful during meditation. This vision of light during meditation helps you to concentrate during meditation. It also imbues faith in metaphysical matters that might be something you never believed before you began your meditation journey.

The manifestation of light depicts that you are transforming your physical unconsciousness into consciousness. You are more aware of yourself when you start having such visions during meditation.

At this point, you should ensure that you are steady and are taking small breaths. Do not get distracted as you are getting closer to your spiritual self.

The Shape of Lights in Visions During Meditation and their Meanings

1. Triangle light in the face

If you are someone who is free from all the attachments in the universe, then you will have this vision during meditation.

This vision during meditation means that your needs are moderate, you have no ego and have lost interest in proving yourself to the society.

You are not attached to your success, and you don’t get affected by failure either. This vision means you have overcome all worldly things, endured heat and cold and witnessed happiness and sadness.

The person realizes that nothing matters. Outer things are influenced by external forces, and once you get closer to your spiritual self, you start detaching from such physical things.

Once you attain these qualities, you start getting triangle light visions during meditation.

2. Light from Sushumna

You will come across a very bright and dazzling light as a vision during meditation. This light is called the light of Sushumna.

You will find it very difficult to concentrate on this light as it is powerful. You will be forced to withdraw your attention from it as your eyes will start straining.

However, you don’t have to fear this light as it is the light of graciousness.

Dazzling Light and What It Means

A time will come when you will see a dazzling light as a vision during meditation. The dazzling light will be powerful and can be as strong as the sun. In the beginning, this light will come and go.

Later on, it will become static for 10 to 15 minutes or even half an hour if you have the strength to concentrate during meditation.

For people who concentrate between their eyebrows during meditation, the light appears on their forehead and for those who focus on the top of head; they see the light at the top of their head.

What to do when you experience the dazzling light?

The dazzling light will be so powerful that you will feel like withdrawing your meditation process. However, you need not worry about it. It depends on you. If you want to withdraw, you can, it is okay to withdraw if you feel like it.

However, you need to know that this vision in meditation is meaningful and a new experience in your meditation journey, which you should experience.

Breaking the practice will prove to be detrimental to your meditation journey. If you continue the practice, your mind will slowly get used to these visions during meditation.

How to concentrate for visions during meditation?

Although it depends on your taste, you should focus between the eyebrows for better results.

It is essential that once you start practicing by focusing between eyebrows, you should continue with that practice. It is necessary to be steady and concentrate on a single point during meditation.

Visions of Different Shapes During Meditation and their Meanings

1. The astral world

During the early periods of meditation, you will see creatures that belong to the astral world. They will be very similar to human beings and have desires, cravings, love, and hatred like human beings.

They can move freely. These creatures have fine bodies and have powers of materialization; dematerialization, multiplying and visions of inferior order.

If you see a lustrous form of light, they are the higher deities who have appeared to bless you and encourage you in your meditation journey. You need to worship this lustrous form of deity as it will elevate your capacity to meditate.

Sometimes, you will also feel an invisible help from these deities. You will be tempted, and they have power to separate you from your body – consciousness.

However, you need to mark these things.

Don’t get immersed in these visions out of mere curiosity, they are just an encouragement and reassurance of metaphysical realities and the concept of transcendence. At this time, you will get to know more about yourself. You need to fix your goal and proceed with enthusiasm.

These lights have an aftertaste because whenever you go to sleep, these lights will reappear, their appearance will be a soothing experience.

Dazzling lights are also visualized when you are about to wake up, half asleep and half awake.

2. The manifestation of the sky as a vision during meditation

Sometimes, it may happen that you will visualize a sky or an open space during meditation. It’s imperative to know the meaning of this kind of vision during meditation. During this vision, you will find yourself as a black dot, and your form will appear in the center of light. You will see physical forms, human forms, and adult males, including some deity devotees.

Visions are often subjective and also manifest according to your mindset and events in your life. However, you will be able to get to a stage in your meditation practice where you will have pristine visions, and this will start happening when you get closer to your spiritual self.

You should also be careful in identifying visions. Also, do not misinterpret them. Common sense and interpretation skills are keys to finding meanings of vision during meditation.

3. Symbols you see as visions during meditation and their meanings

According to Sri Aurobindo, you will come across different kinds of symbols during meditation, and every symbol has a meaning and depicts higher reality, which can be divided as follows:

Simple and conventional symbols

As per the Vedic theory, a cow stands for light, because the word “Gou” was used for both of them.
So, when you see a cow in a vision during meditation, it means spiritual light.
The horse is also a common vision during meditation, it portrays force and energy.

Symbols of life

You may also visualize mountains or yourself crossing river and fighting enemies.
According to archaic devotees, this means that you are on the path of meditation where you will rise level by level and peak by peak.

Symbols that are highly pertinent to your spiritual self

Many times, it may happen that you will see an etheric space as a vision during meditation.
It is a symbol of all-pervading eternal Brahman, which is the concept of transcendence and ultimate reality.
The place you belong to or your cultural roots don’t matter. In any culture, this would be the same thing. The sun is the light and the divine Gnosis.

Other mental symbols

You may also come across alphabets or numbers as visions during meditation. They are also meaningful but have various interpretations due to different geometries.

Sometimes, a square may stand for super-mind. A triangle has a different interpretation. It can symbolize three lower planes or three higher planes.

These symbols may express many different ideas, but you need to use your interpretational skills for the same.

Visions of Colors During Meditation and their Meanings in Terms of Chakras

White/Violet – This color is for crown chakra. It connects us to source energy and takes us to intuition. Do not block it as it can cause anxiety, dissociation, and headache.

Purple – Purple stands for the third eye chakra and manifests clairvoyance.

Blue – Blue is located in the throat, and it gets blocked when we are lying.

Green – This color portrays the heart. It allows you to love and feel loved.

Yellow – Yellow denotes solar plexus chakra through which all emotions run.

Orange – This is for the sacral chakra which is for our sexual and creative energy.

Red – Red portrays the tailbone, which connects us to mother earth.
Visions during meditation are very natural, and they appear for the causes mentioned above.

Conclusion

You don’t need to worry about meditation visions and their meanings, but instead, live in the moment and experience the visions during meditation.

These visions can be in the form of light, shape or color. You need to identify these visions and interpret them according to the instructions in this article.

Moreover, the visions you see when you begin your meditation journey and thereafter will be different, it all depends on your level of concentration and how far you are in your spiritual path.

  1. Great article, answered many questions but left a huge question lingering. I saw people dressed in white robes with gold symbols like Tibetan monks……there was a chair that as I approached became a locked doorknob. Then an oblisk of Valhalla’n Symboligy, skulls, knives, swords, hammers etc then it was covered with a black sheet……..it was not a movie but a “Live event” played out in my mind.

    • Remember that the subconscious mind has a lot of imagery stored up. Movies, posters ect. From what I know it is important to log these visions if recurring and figure them out in the future which should be easier as you go along but not to focus too much on them during meditation and let the images pass. New ones will come and go and they may have meaning or they may mean nothing. It should all become more clear later, Peace

  2. Thank you for this article, it was very informative yet it still leaves me with various question such as; what might the triangle in the face look like or can you see multiple forms of light during a single meditation, and would that mean that my thoughts are still too clouded or is it that I am nearing my spiritual being faster than before?
    For example: a few nights ago I had started meditating after a stressful day and Immediately started seeing different forms of light. It had started as reddish purple bubbles that would go in and out of focus as it came closer to me. after about 10 seconds of it getting closer, the bubble turned into a tigers face that also would start to come closer and every time it would get closer, it would be more in focus than the time before with its mouth opening more and more until it was inches away from my face as if it were about to eat my own face off. Suddenly the tigers face vanished into a smokey wisp and a wolf came jumping out of the receding colors. As soon as the wolf had appeared, i had been transported from the surrounding darkness of my thoughts to an arctic forest with snow laying on the ground and few trees scattered in every direction, yet the sky was still visible. I was sitting in the middle of this snow covered forest in the same exact position I was sitting in my room, my legs were crossed and my hands were in my lap. After the first wolf had jumped into my vision, it started sprinting around me in a circle. Within in seconds, another wolf had leapt out of the darkness of the woods and followed the first wolf, just running in circles around me. Then one by one, another wolf jumped from into this circle until there were 5 wolves surrounding me. With each circle they ran, they would get closer and closer until finally they were each 5 feet away from me. Right at this moment I stopped having a first person view and I saw the whole picture from an outsiders view, as if I were watching myself from the darkness of the surrounding trees. I then saw myself spin from sitting on the floor to a full on standing position. I raised my right arm into the air and a silvery-blue beam shot out of my hand and into the sky. The wolves stopped and simultaneously jumped onto their hind legs and perched their mouths as if they were about to howl, and the same exact colored beam shot out of each of their mouths and met my beam in the sky. As soon as all the beams were being projected, a mysterious-joyous energy had started to resonate from my chest outwards. I would really like to know of hidden message behind this vision, this was only about 5 minutes of my hour long meditation.
    later, I had seen circles form and from the circles, triangles would appear taking the circles place. These triangles were all pointing inwards and about 15 small triangles made a single circle. Are these shapes from a distracted mind or do they have more meaning to them? Any response would be greatly appreciated, thank you so much!

    • You have seen your past lives as tiger and wolves.
      Part where you were watching yourself was an astral journey in forest. This might be your past lives that came to surface. Just let it go.

    • I’d say this is significant of all things being of the same universal consciousness. The triangles to me are significant of looking inwards. Continue the journey.

    • Wow I wish. Well this triangle thing is building by 3. First course in miracles founder had one appear with black dots during unconscious dental. She went up the middle in pain and out the top dot into love. Then tonight I was reading a Telepathy book in which I said we re in square mode moving into Triangle then into interlocked circles. Old bk passed onto me. Alice Bailey. Hard to get so thats all you get. Google. Cheers.

  3. I have experienced a triangular light in many forms over the years. I started meditating at a very young age, and have always been drawn to higher enlightenment. My question for you is this. Recently after a long period of continuous meditation in a triangular light. I had a vision of a multitude of luminous spheres. The spheres collected into a pool of luminous silver light, and my awareness opened to an open sandy landscape that seemed to float among all the stars of the universe. As my awareness broadened even further, a vision of a beautiful woman lightly covered in iridescent flowing silks appeared opposite of me as I became aware of her reflection in the pool of light. She smiled at me quietly for a very long time. She then seemed to focus on me and I heard a low undulating hum which grew louder and louder until I lost focus.

    My question is this. Do you have a y Idea what this could mean?

    Reply
    • I had the exact same experience in 2015. Amazing. I was floating in space and I saw stars and her face. She breathed into me and I felt every single cell vibrating with wholeness and love. I’ve never been the same since.

    • Your body, in my opinion, is manifesting its love for you and its need to nurture. It is woman that is a nurturer in many traditions.

  4. Thank you for the article. My question is, what does it mean to see the flower of life in your meditation. I didn’t know what it was, I had to search for what I saw in my meditation. I found the flower of life picture. This was my third meditation. Any idea?

    • The same thing happened to me, I saw the flower of life In a vision but I wasn’t meditating and never saw it before, I had to search and found it was the flower of life. I would like to know more about it too

  5. Hi,
    I started meditation last year. Within a week I could visualise indigo geometric shapes, and a pinpoint spot of white light. Afterwards I could feel a sensation or almost slight bulge on my forehead. Then after about three weeks it all stopped.
    What were these sensation, and is it possible or advantageous to regain them?

  6. Okay so I was meditating to Indian tribal flute music and it started off where I was laying on a tree stump in the forest (it usually always does) then I was up and dancing in a slow wave like way but I got in my knees and moved the leaves and I saw a symbol that looked almost like a trident but it was where the points were facing me. When I tried to concentrate it got blurry and then someone walked in and broke my meditation so I couldn’t continue. What could this mean? I think it could be a warning to be alert from my spirit guide but I’m not sure.

  7. How about the meaning to me meditating and seeing what looked like a wing spanning over me before looking at the world 🌍 as if I was in space then the world started to spin the opposite way it got faster and faster till I was looking at 2 what I would class as boulders then went forward as they crashed big flash and a big ball of fire that sped up and the world was back then went backwards again even further as if at the speed of light then I slowed down and it looked as if I was spiralling out of a black hole but as I was going back I began to realise that I was actually coming out of a beings eye and as I stopped spiralling I was face to face with a being who smiled at me then I opened my eyes and gasped for air and I’ve never meditated since it’s been on my mind for the past couple of years do you no the meaning of this please thanks for anyone who takes the time to read

  8. I apologize for such a long comment, understand it may get deleted, and assume that if it does not, I will not receive any response. The experiences below are a small fraction of the world I can access instantly at any time day or night inside or out. Maybe searching for answers or a guide or even just one person who can relate to is not my path, but it is very difficult to accept that so I keep searching and sharing.

    I see with my eyes open or closed and experience so much and so many things beyond any description of anything I can find anywhere after looking for 6 years. Tiny little dots of bright light with shimmering circular and diamond shaped auras that are undeniably conscious and interact and behave with emotion. Sometimes they stand perfectly still in a geometric shape as if to show me they are many and not just one or sometimes it/they move to the edge of walls or other things like blinds to to make it as easy as possible to see their perfectly shaped auras in contrast and sometimes it/they will zoom around the room at high speeds and/or crazy patterns like downward corkscrews as my 2 regular eyes follow in perfect synchronicity until I accidentally use them for a second and have to try and give all control back to my 3rd eye. It/they connect and communicate with me and take me through layer after layer of the veil any time I look and I go deeper and deeper into this other plane as long as I don’t become too mesmerized or overwhelmed or think too much with my brain or keep using my eyes too much and it becomes too difficult or exhausting to keep giving control back to my third eye and/or I fall asleep. I go hours without blinking and just barely breathing. On top of this constant presence that is always there and ready to interact and show me incredible displays of light and geometry are my dreams. Almost daily 30-60 seconds clips of real life reminding me of a dream I had in which every possible aspect is identical, or prophetic dreams that showed me things like a broken bone or a miscarriage a day or less before it happened, or cosmic and epic worlds literally more real than anything I’ve felt in real life, planets colliding, golden palace lands, massive pyramid or temple like structures with god like beings of light or giants or native americans or alien ships revealing themselves to me or selecting me to specifically to go somewhere I know is either entirely familiar or much better than here. Then there is the seeing through my eyelids or remembering memories or things I cannot explain or make any sense of that I know already happened but are otherworldly and beyond my comprehension or the astral projection and the actual physical vibrations of objects I have caused while getting through the first layers of it. Or crystal grid I have observed surrounding me that unlike most things I experience I couldn’t stop seeing or snap out of that perspective when I wanted to, one of the diamond shapes in the grid missing like an open window to outer space on the other side and the bright dots of light traveling in and out of like some kind of totally normal and bustling transit station taking them to and from all over the galaxy or universe or dimension or whatever it is I obviously have no idea. I just want to understand some small portion of all of this or have a tiny bit of guidance so I can begin honoring my purpose and stop resenting these incredible and undeniable experiences that I can’t seem to take much of anything from once the initial shock wears off after a day or two other than I am able to see cool stuff and there is a reality that I have not seen described as I experience it accurately or in much detail anywhere ever but I know for absolute certainty to be as real as the laptop I am typing this on and perhaps more so. Oh and the 7 feet tall lion in a blue spacesuit who visited me just one single time when I was about 5 and brought with it an immense sense of reunion and love and I remembered and cried hysterically with an under able sense of longing when I was about 10? That was also real. This is a just rant and not even close to a catalog or even a detailed depiction of what I have and continue to experience. I have gone down the rabbit hole looking for answers or similar experiences being described and I have found literally nothing beyond pictures of sacred geometry that looks like the light beings auras and the grid that I’ve seen or descriptions of starseeds or alien races that pretty exactly and almost entirely describe me. I want to embrace it and live it so bad and lately the message has seemed kind of frustrated or maybe even angry and saying all of these things I see are not merely some cool amazing aspect of reality I am able to experience, but actually the reality of existence entirely. I just don’t know what to do with any of it and I keep falling back into my routine of life with my high pressure job and my 4 kids and the less frequent I look the harder it is and the longer it takes to see through the veil and be shown things and the less anything I experience has any real bearing on me or the quicker I get frustrated and just give up for the night or the week or the month or months sometimes. It feels like I was given gifts and skills and knowledge for a very specific and very important reason but then I got here and just started wasting it all and whoever/wherever I come from is disappointed or even mad at me because I’m just eating and drinking and working and sleeping and I’m mad all the time or sad all the time and I just want someone to tell me what I’m supposed to do or even just to be able to talk to someone that can help me understand the other world I experience so I can fully embrace it and live it because I really want to and I know without a doubt I’m supposed to but I have nothing from which to draw context from other than the fact that it all completely contradicts most of if not all aspects of what is generally considered or accepted to be reality therefore it feels impossible to integrate it into my human life when I return to it every day.

    • Hi Michael, I haven’t seen half of what you’ve seen, so please consider yourself blessed and enjoy your mystical experiences 🙂 Looks like your third eye has fully activated or do you want to deactivate it ? 🙂 the choice is yours. If you believe in God, keep asking Him every day what does this all mean and He will answer you , give it some time.

  9. During extended meditation…I was shown grass and nature, then the night sky…then I was in space…I giant tube that was pinched off at the top opened and a hole was created…the colors of the foreground and background all blendeding (colors bring stars and space). I went into the hole and traveled through it until I came out the other side and saw 2 pryminds shapes, inverted to each other with a bring light at the center. To this day I can think about it without crying and getting the chills. After I pulled back through the hole and the episode or whatever stopped and I came back to my mediation neutral space.

  11. I have meditated once and was and probably still am a novice in this area, but on one such occasion, I got to huge golden gates and was urged to enter through these gates. I never did, as I was scared though. Never got back to this gate in attempts after this. What would the meaning be of these huge golden gates I was urged to enter?

  13. Well thanks so much, before I tell you about my experience you should know that I have frequent deja vu’s and see a lot of strange things and my grandmother is a very spiritual woman and always says to love yourself and be true to yourself so I decided I wanted to meditate.so I went to a church and decided to meditate there.I was 10 at the time I am now 12 years old and I had a meditation about being on a beach and there was this cute boy and he said if I wanted to have a feast with him,ignorantly and surprisingly,I followed him into the ocean .He presented me with a hut and we went in there were many people in there and we sat at a table.There were three types of rice,black/brown rice,white,and red rice.He told me to try the red rice.I was confused ,and wanted to eat other thing like the turkey,and the ham.But the more I looked around…the more scared I got.the people were in cloaks and there was a goats head on the table .He told me to eat the red rice,and that I would be his queen .In fear I took the spoon shaking and almost taking a bite out of the rice as everyone were starting to smile the closer it got to my lips. Though ,before I got to take a bite everyone started to perish ,and I woke up surrounded in a church my church people.When I asked why I was there the priest said that I had an interaction with the devil and was lured in by a trap of a boy,”why” I asked.The church people looked at each other reluctantly and the priest said…”it was another way to Hell.”I didn’t even tell my mom.

  14. Thank you Allen for this opportunity to describe some of the amazing things that I’ve seen and experienced during my meditative states. I apologize in advance if this comment gets a little lengthy, but hopefully you find it fascinating like I’ve found it to be for the past 37 years. I formally started meditation at the age of thirteen while I was studying Aikido under my sensei back in the early 1980’s. My sensei brought the teachings he learned to the United States from Japan. This particular form of Aikido he learned was based in tradition to a certain extent, but also had teachings in Chinese 5 Animal Kung Fu. Basically this art was a form of Ninjutsu, which incorporated meditative practices (not much emphasizes was placed in hand seals like some of the other ninjutsu clans regularly practice) to allow martial arts practitioners to develop visualization skills as well as develop individual intuitive skills (to pass the black belt phase of training in our art, a practitioner had to experience a “remote viewing” while blind folded, in an isolated building in the dead of winter with all the doors to the building wide open and at the same time ward off attacks from our sensei and yes I did pass this phase surprisingly ). Anyways, I experienced the most puzzling meditative vision during my meditations leading up to the black belt test. After meditating into “nothingness” for about 30 minutes I went from a completely “black” state to a vision of what I can only describe as a pure white realm in which I saw 7 perfectly round spheres stacked vertically on top of each other, obviously this represented the 7 chakras. I sat patiently and quietly viewing this image for what seem like 5 minutes and then suddenly the crown chakra (appearing as a luminescent silver sphere; almost chrome in appearance) slowly drifted all the way down to my root chakra and remained in the root chakra position. As soon as I started to analyze what I was viewing the image disappeared and went back to black nothingness. I opened my eyes and looked around the room at the other two students (who also managed to get their black belts in this demanding art) who lasted along with me out of a beginning class of 25 students in the three years of study with our amazing sensei. I’ve done a little research and the silver color represents clairvoyance or intuitiveness, but I’m not understanding why the crown chakra drifted down to the root chakra. Does this represent some form of creativity or manifestation that I needed to develop at that time? I think it may. Any insights that you can provide are appreciated. Also to whom is reading this, I wish you a very Happy New Year in 2021! Thanks!

  15. When you read ‘The Secret of the Golden Flower’ (eg/ the Wilhelm, Jung-Baynes Version) with the idea that symbolic, alchemical language is actually describing the confirmatory visions, then might recognize these are among the visions you actually experienced. They might include;
    -the melting an mixing of internal yin and yang, symbolised by clouds swirling on the flanks of distant, dark, purplish hillsides.
    -a twinkling expanse of uniform star field, completely filling the vision, against a charcoal sky, you can go out and explore it
    -the appearance of white jade ledges or pedestals with symbols on them, perhaps a seated Buddha in white flowing robes. Early on I saw first a white arm and open hand rise up, either a stop or a welcome gesture, and a moment later to its right, an identical black hand rose up – Welcome to the Tao.
    -as a guy, anima images, beautiful, rapturous female faces in semi profile crystallize, the eyes regard me in a loving way, then they dissolve way
    -a golden circle pulses from a numinous, emerald crystalline core, getting brighter and bigger, then opens out into a many petalled golden flower mandala and fills the vison with brightness.

  16. So towards the end of meditating I had a vision of a crow flying and it made me emotional. The next day I meditated I saw my uncle. The next day I had a really heavy heart and felt like I’ve lost someone, when to meditate and saw a littlegirl that seemed 4 at the beach and then I saw her around age 8 in a pool, after that I saw her in her 20s dressed in all white just standing in front of me in all white, then I saw her dead and naked under water. When I started writing about her a name was whispered to me, a name I do not know. Then the day after that my uncle passed. The part that confuses me is who is that child that I saw become a woman in my vision? Do you know what that may mean, why did she show up randomly during my meditation?
