Over five-hundred apparitions of the Virgin Mary have been reported throughout the centuries, bathed in a golden light, crying or at peace. Only twelve apparitions have been sanctioned by the Catholic Church. Out of the twelve apparitions five have occurred to young girls and teenagers. Alone or with a group of friends the young women have experienced a religious ecstasy.
