Nope. I put it away after everything got quiet.

My house dreams are always borderline nightmares too - or they should be anyway - but I'm never really afraid. But it's not dark and eerie - in fact one room (but I don't remember which one) is painted true GREEN with woodwork.

Iym - I don't associate the name Mary with the mother anymore, or any strictly religious connotation. To me it has almost become a universal goddess name. I'm not so sure one can distinguish so easily between entities (ghosts, goddesses). I know for years I thought a visitation I had as a child was a ghost, an ancestor protecting me perhaps. Once I did some reading, I believed she was a manifestation of the feminine. But the mother obviously plays a role in that, SHE being the protector of all things.

Leo-

"Mary" is definitely a universal goddess name in this day in age, but when you said "crone", that implies that you are breaking it down into one of three aspects (e.g. Maiden-Mother-Crone), and if so, I disagree with your choice. Of the Ma-Mo-Cr aspects, the energy associated with the name "Mary" is predominantly of the Mother. I'm not sure how you could argue otherwise. "Mary" was elevated to Goddess in the context of christianity and the christians see her as the Mother of Jesus. The virginial aspect would almost lean her toward Maiden in anything.

**Of course** there are exceptions ... an aspect that you become familiar with may come to you in different forms at different times for different reasons.

And I would have also disagree that a visit from Deity could be misinterpreted as anything but. The awsome presence of deity makes it completely obvious. Angels may throw you as they may feel like Deity, but a visitation from Deity would be much more intense: Life changing, path altering, "religion inspiring" experiences.

(not trying to be difficult here :)
