Venerable Theodore was born in the village of Sykeot in Galatia, which is why he was called Sykeot. His mother Mary conceived him with the servant of Emperor Justinian the Great, Cosmas. And when she conceived him, his mother had this dream that night: a huge, bright star descended from heaven into her womb. She told her dream to her mother Elpidia and her sister Dyspenia. Then she went to a wise elder who lived a hermit's life in God not far from the village, and told him her dream. The elder gave her spiritual advice and instructions on a godly life, and said to her: The child conceived in you will truly be a great man not only before men but also before God, for a bright star signifies imperial glory, as the wise interpreters of dreams explain. But in your case, it does not foretell the reign of the king on earth, but the star you saw foretells the glory of the virtues and grace of God, which God poured out on the child conceived by you. For God often sanctifies his servants in the womb before their birth. – After the wise elder had spoken this prophecy to Mary and instructed her properly, he dismissed her in peace. The bishop of Anastasiopolis also learned about this case. Theodosius, and he also considered that this dream meant that the child conceived would be the light of the world.
