A half-length portrait of a woman, turned sideways to face the left edge of the painting, wearing an aubergine-colored gown, olive-green cloak, and gold scarf. Her red hair is pulled back from her forehead. Her elbows are bent so that her hands are in front of her chest. In her right hand she grasps a long thin martyr's palm. In her left she holds the base of a small tazza on which sit two human eyes, which are one of St. Lucy's attributes.

On this Memorial of Saint Lucy, we remember a Christian martyr of Syracuse who died around 304. Though few details survive, her ancient veneration endures. Her name means light, making her a fitting Advent witness as the Church awaits Christ. #jesus #jesuschrist #catholicchurch #catholic #saintlucy

Icon of St Lucy, in Barcelona Cathedral. Against a golden background, she is dressed in red and green and holding a plate on which are her own eyeballs.

Today, being St Lucy's Day and the Start of the Solar Weirdness, is the first day I can put my decorations up.

This year it is also my first day as a Dr.

#Christian #saints are often quite weird. #SaintLucy is a good example. Yes, those are her eyes on the platter.

Here’s the recipe if you want to try it.
Turmeric plus paprika might be an alternative for the much more expensive and flavorful saffron.

Saint Lucy saw the light of Christ so clearly that she was willing to sacrifice everything for Him. In a world filled with darkness, she reminds us that true vision comes from faith, not sight. 🕯️✨ #saintlucy #faithunshaken #jesus #jesuschrist #catholicchurch #catholic #friday

#Lucia, do you know the story?

Dante Alighieri and the Three Women
(Imaginary Image)
✅ The "three blessed women": they are Beatrice, the woman loved by Dante, Saint Lucy, and the Virgin Mary; they symbolize divine grace.
