The Significance of the Medal

TheMiraculous Medal, also known as the Medal of the Immaculate Conception, is one of the most beloved of all religious medals. In 1830, the Virgin Mary appeared to a French nun named Sister Catherin Laboure (now a Saint).

The Virgin Mary showed Sister Catherin her vision of this exact medal,

which she directed to be struck and distributed.

The medal includes the Virgin Mary, across, two hearts and 12 stars.


THE MEANING OF THE MIRACULOUS MEDALOn the frontof the Miraculous Medal, Mary stands on a globe, representing the earth, with acrushed snake under her feet. This image represent Mary's role as "Queenof Heaven and Earth". The snake represents Satan, who was defeated byMary's obedience to God. The rays coming from her hands symbolize the gracesMary gives to those who ask her. The year 1830 commemorates the year that theBlessed Mother appeared to St. Catherine Laboure.

On thereverse side of the Miraculous Medal is a cross and the letter "M".The cross represents Christ's sacrifice for our salvation, while the bar underthe cross stands for the Earth. The "M" stands for "Mary"and her true devotion both to Jesus and to her children on Earth. The twohearts are the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart ofMary.The entire image is surrounded by twelve stars. The stars canrepresent both the twelve Apostles and the verse from the Book of Revelation,"a great sign appeared in heaven, a woman clothed with the sun, and themoon under her feet, and on her head a crown of 12 stars" (Revelation12:1).THE PROMISES OF THE MEDALDuring Our Lady's visit to Catherine on November 27,1830, rays of light flowedfrom rings on her fingers that were made of precious stones. However, some ofthe stones on the ring did not shine.Mary explained:"These rays symbolize the graces I shed upon those who ask for them. Thegems from which rays do not fall are the graces for which souls forget toask."Mary then spoke of the medal with these words:"All who wear it will receive great graces; they should wear it around theneck. Graces will abound for persons who wear it with confidence."The medal is simply a visible sign of the inner devotion the wearerhasfor Mary and her Son, Jesus.
THE MIRACLESOriginally, the name of the medal was "Medal of the ImmaculateConception", however stories of miracles related to the medal werereported almost immediately and the medal came to be called"Miraculous".1. In Paris, an 8 year old girl was the only one in her class that did not weara medal and was the only one who caught cholera. She was given a medal andreturned to school the next day.2. A woman who was pregnant contracted cholera and was thought close to death.After being given the medal she had a smooth delivery and both mother and babywere found to be healthy.3. A child who had been unable to walk was healed when he wore the medal on thefirst day of a novena.4. In 1842 a young man named Alphonse Tobie Ratisbonne experienced aconversion. From a Jewish family, Ratisbonne had a deep and very public hatredof Catholicism. During a trip in 1841, he unexpectedly spent some time in Romeand met Baron Bussieres, a newly converted Catholic. The two had an argumentabout the Faith and the Baron gave Ratisbonne a Miraculous Medal, challenginghim to wear it and recite the prayer the Memorare. Shortly after, Our Ladyappeared to Ratisbonne in exactly the same way as on the Miraculous Medal. Hewas converted immediately and was baptized that same night.After only four years the number of medals that had been distributed numberedin the millions, and by Catherine's death in 1876 the number was in thebillions.


This medal would make a beautiful addition to any

religious jewelry collection.

Or a treasured keepsake for any family member.
