Our Lady of Sorrows: Patroness of Protection, Mother of Mercy

Note: This episode and others from this time frame reflect an early stage in my spiritual journey. While I may or may not not hold these views any longer, I am still keeping these episodes up.    

Why? Because this is also a historical and folklore podcast, and the folk practices or beliefs discussed are still accurate from an educational and cultural standpoint.    

However, if you are interested in my more current views and growth, check out the “Reflection” series I recorded in January of 2023.

Mary is the mother of sorrows. 

She knows what it's like to feel hopeless, vengeful, angry, sad, desperate, and overall ... dark. However, when she held her dead son in her arms, she made a promise to protect all of her earthly children from the beyond.

Our Lady of Sorrows is the incarnation of Mary that exorcists use when fighting the demonic. She can be used to bind those out to get you, protect you from evil - but also soften your heart to ensure you can greet others with kindness and authenticity.

This episode covers working alongside Our Lady of Sorrows for protection, for binding, for softening the heart of others - and for general devotion.

I hope you enjoy.
