Marian apparition

Supernatural appearance by the Virgin Mary

A Marian apparition is a supernatural event where somebody says they have seen Mary, the mother of Jesus. If a person claims they have heard Mary or have dreamt of Mary, this is not enough; the person needs to claim that they have seen Mary in their environment.[1]
