Marian Monogram Symbol - Meaning and Significance in Catholic Tradition #170928 (License: Personal Use)

The image displays a classic Marian symbol: a white monogram “M” surmounted by a Latin cross, set within a black oval and encircled by twelve five-pointed stars. Below the monogram are two Sacred Hearts-the Immaculate Heart of Mary (crowned with thorns, pierced by a sword) and the Sacred Heart of Jesus (flaming, crowned with thorns, pierced by a lance). The twelve stars evoke the Woman of the Apocalypse (Rev 12:1) and Mary’s queenship.

Used in Catholic devotional art, church banners, medals, and websites focused on Marian theology or feast days like the Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God. Matches user intent for religious symbolism research, catechetical resources, or liturgical design inspiration.
