December 12 (12.12) is the Feast Day of Our Lady of Guadalupe.
.
On December 9, 1531, Guadalupe first appeared to Juan Diego on Tepeyac Hill and told him that she wanted a church built in her honor on that very hill.
The Bishop did not believe Juan Diego and asked for proof. When Juan Diego returned to Our Lady and told her what the bishop said, she asked Juan Diego to hold out his tilma (cloak).

She vibrates with the Sacred Healing Power of Love and reminds us it is within us if we choose to claim it.
At Dawn, on December 12, 1531 on Tepeyac Hill in Mexico Our Lady of Guadulupe (a.k.a Mother Mary) appeared to Juan Diego and asked a sanctuary be built in honor of her mysteries.
This story reminds us the sanctuary is within us. When we choose to allow this energy to emerge even more consciously in our awareness we are touched by a force beyond our mental comprehension.
This doorway of light comes alive within us showing us the miracle of our eternal Being. Juan Diego saw Our Lady shimmering like the Sun and was filled with awe. He fell to his knees with great honor and respect.
