Mary’s Moon

Mary’s Moon

Guadalupedia:

Did you know that the black horn-like shapes under Our Lady of Guadalupe’s feet is actually a crescent moon?

The moon appears in Mexico City between the months of December to March at the same angle as depicted in the image from December 1531.

Further, this was the exact lunar cycle in Mexico City in December 12th, 1531!

But WHY is Our Lady standing on a black crescent moon…?

Stay tuned in for our upcoming facebook live retreats and future posts to find out!

Facebook Live retreats are available weekly at 7pm CST/8pm EST on Guadalupe Missions Facebook Page; remaining posted for a limited time following the retreat!

Guadalupe Missions is a non-profit that provides talks, retreats and mission-pilgrimages throughout the U.S. and in Mexico City.

Our missionary work is inspired by the Beatitudes as well as the example and guidance of Our Lady, serving the poorest and most neglected individuals and communities.

Guadalupe Missions’ purpose is to evangelize by sharing the love of Christ through the gift of His mother Mary – meeting both worldly & spiritual needs.

In our talks and retreats we unpack the treasury of symbolism and depth seen in the image itself as well as the rich historical, scientific, and theological significance of a miraculous image that resulted in the largest conversion in recorded history.

We welcome you to respond to Our Lady’s generous and heartfelt invitation to greater intimacy with her Son, Jesus Christ.

We hope that you find the resources on this site (designed by missionaries – not web designers!) useful on your journey to Christ.

Know of our prayers!
