Dream Catharsis in Mexico

I was in Mexico, preparing for an Ayahuasca ceremony for which no preparation could really suffice, and I remember having the following dream sequence:

I was to be introduced to a very powerful elder, who had traveled far to get to the ceremony. She was slender, Asian, and somewhere between the ages of 60-75, and certainly bore a very powerful persona. She was seated outside at a round table with several people idly chatting around her. A man, of whom I have no recollection, took me up to her and introduced me as a girl from America who was also taking part in the ceremony. When I started to explain that I really had no clue what I was doing there, this all must be some kind of mistake, I had lost all of my energy last year and I didn't know where to find it, she quickly hushed me. Then, and this was the most vivid part, she briskly grabbed my left index finger between her thumb and forefinger, pulling down from knuckle to fingertip in one brisk moment as she watched the reaction in my eyes. When she did this I felt a huge release of energy from my body to the outside, as if all of my energy had just shifted enough so that I could become aware of it at that moment. I was completely exasperated and knew at that moment that she had already somehow known the energy contained within me, and that it was powerful, and that there was a reason I had to be there.

For the first time in Mexico I had experienced a feeling of power amidst feelings of self-doubt, lethargy, and alienation, albeit in a dream. I realized the power latent within me was something that was readily observable by a master even if it could not be readily observable to me.

Reflection on this dream:

Only when I came back from Mexico did I really start to question who this woman had been. But I have a good hunch. There is an old Tibetan woman who owns a shop selling various Tibetan goods and incenses in Yellow Springs, OH, where I will be moving in October to begin a three year study at Antioch college, and over several encounters with her I have experienced many feelings that she could sense something I was not yet aware of. My last encounter with her had been after a very mystical week at my first Rainbow Gathering, and I was still full of that energy. Every time I search her eyes to see if she recognizes me, because for some reason I always feel unrecognizable, but she has not once forgotten me since our first brief encounter. This time she seemed glad to see me, maybe a little more than I had previously sensed. I told her about Rainbow and Mexico and she was quite jovial, giggled when I told her about the ayahuasca ceremonies, and I still felt like she knew things about my experiences I didn't know. She kept saying that she used certain things in her practices and when I asked her what those practices were she quite skillfully maneuvered the conversation in another direction. But when I walked out the door she told me to come back soon and winked at me.
