A Dreamy Mikva


One of the multitude of stories about the tzadik and famous mezuza and tfillin expert Rav Moshe Ben Tov ztz"l-  lizchus [like the future stories I will post] yedid nafshi R' Ephraim Abba ben Miriam Shoshana who is my role model in honoring and revering tzadikim:

A women who lives in France, dreamed three weeks before the tzadik passed away, that she came to the tzadik's office in Paris with mezuzos from her house to be checked. While he checked, she saw in her dream, the Rav spoke to her about her sister-in-law, and told her to relate to her that the reason she has not yet had children is because the mikva where she immersed was lacking the necessary conditions that enabled her to be checked prior to immersion. "Tell her to go to a different mikva", the Rav paskened.

Immediately when she awoke she told her sister in law about the dream. Her sister in law said that she also had been thinking recently that the mikva didn't have adequate conditions to properly check her and she had been considering switching mikvas.

She did and soon after became pregnant.
