I think the Benedictine order has some symbolism to olives, perhaps this the reference to the name. Also olives or olive leaves and branches are used in coats of arms. I do not know what Pope Benedict XVI's coat of arms looks like. Also what he does as Pope may explain the prophecy.

As for myself I think it is a reference to the Church making peace with God. I think he will do this near the end of his papacy and will consecrate Russia to the Immaculate Heart. However I wouldn't be putting any money down on my thoughts on the matter. I thought Pope John Paul II would live till 2011 and there would be division in the Conclave of Cardinals with a possibility of more than one Cardinal claiming the papal crown.

One thing I am sure of; I pray God bless him and guide him. Pray for Pope Benedict XVI.
