My hope is to have some kind of chronological list with links of Marian apparitions here as a post. Putting it together in order will take me a while, checking already existing lists for completeness and ordering will make this easier-- actually just doable as it would not be doable otherwise-- but it will still take a while.
Another thing I want to do is have a chronological list of apparitions where she gave prophetic messages. I think the earliest of these is Quito, but I am still accumulating information.
Another chronological listing I want to make will be a list of widely promulgated devotions, which is a pretty amorphous sounding idea. First would have to involve Mount Carmel because apparently hermits following Elias/Elijah, going back many centuries before her birth, started their monasticism in prayer and preparation of her birth. The continuity between histories across the BC/AD divide is lacking because of the violence and upheavals and animosity between the various conflicting sides over that time (which extend into this day).
With only 2 readers to this sub at the time I'm writing this, one hundred percent larger than I expected (so: THANK YOU!), I went into the creation of this sub with a "build it and they will come" mentality. Since I'm still building it, I am not worried about population here or promotion of it, yet.
On advantage is that when I get it built people who come along after that will more easily see how complete the mosaic is that her apparitions have created. I used to think people who called the Bible their favorite book were crazy, or lying. But eventually when I started to see the repetitions of patterns and themes and symbols across it, it really stands out as an amazingly interesting and complex, but also complexly interwoven and I think that aspect of being so very interwoven is the key to coming to grips (but I dare not say understanding) it. I don't hope to convey that here as the bible is not the subject of this sub. But, I hope to show something like that with regard to the Marian apparitions because they tell us about the times we live in, and about things that are timeless and just as applicable today.
This will take a while to put together though. I apologize for that.
there doesn't seem to be anything here
