Born in the tiny Spanish village of Azana, Mother Juana fled her family and their wish to marry her at age 15. She traveled disguised as a boy, finding refuge in a Franciscan convent. In 1509, she was made abbess and had a growing reputation as a visionary\\prophetess. As a woman, she was well respected by such notable males as Emperor Charles V and the cardinal and Inquisitor General Francisco Jimenez de Cisneros. She was given unheard of power in exercise of spiritual jurisdiction for a woman religious and often preached.
