It is also the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.holyart.com\/blog\/religious-items\/the-madonna-del-roseto-represented-by-various-artists\/\"><strong>month of roses<\/strong><\/a>, which in this period witness their most luxuriant flowering, and the association is certainly not accidental.

The tradition that associates Our Lady with May has no basis in the Holy Scriptures. It has taken hold and developed over the centuries. Throughout the month some special prayers and devotions can be addressed to her every day, to obtain grace or just to embark on a path of personal spiritual growth.

The origin of the Rosary is to be found in the custom of adorning the statues of Our Lady with garlands of flowers, especially roses, in May. As for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.holyart.com\/blog\/religious-items\/how-to-make-a-sacrifice-to-the-madonna\/\"><strong>Fioretti<\/strong><\/a>, instead, we have to wait for the sixteenth century, when <strong>St. Philip Neri<\/strong> invited the children placed in his custody to decorate with flowers the image of Mary and sing his praises, and later to Don Bosco, who asked his boys to replace the flowers for Our Lady with <strong>good deeds<\/strong>, small sacrifices, commitments also linked to daily life. The Fioretto alla Madonna as a flower to offer.<\/p>\n<p>The Madonna is also considered the <strong>mystical rose<\/strong>, the most beautiful flower, which symbolises the grace of God, the queen of all flowers and yet &#8220;mystical&#8221;, hidden, as hidden for us is his body, ascended to Heaven at his death.<\/p>\n<p>Another flower often associated with the Madonna is the <strong>white lily<\/strong>, a symbol of purity.<\/p>\n<div class=\"link-product\">\n<div class=\"blocco-immagine\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3441 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.holyart.it\/com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2023\/05\/Incenses.jpg\" alt=\"Incenses\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" data-kale-share-title=\"The fragrance of the saints: for every saint, a flower!\" data-kale-share-url=\"https:\/\/blog.holyart.it\/com\/?p=3437\" \/><\/div>\n<div class=\"blocco-contenuto\">\n<div class=\"blocco-acquista\">Buy Now:<\/div>\n<div class=\"blocco-titolo\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.holyart.com\/consumable-material-consumables\/incenses?page=1&amp;23%5B%5D=989&amp;p_min=&amp;p_max=\">INCENSES<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"blocco-descrizione\">All the incenses are suitable both for a domestic and for a church use.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2>The lily, the flower of Santa Caterina<\/h2>\n<p>In the traditional iconography of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.holyart.com\/religious-items\/statues\/plaster-statues\/saint-catherine-of-seina-statue-30-cm-in-plaster-with-mother-of-pearl\"><strong>Saint Catherine of Siena<\/strong><\/a>, Patroness of Italy and Patroness of Europe, a book, a symbol of the doctrine, the ring, which symbolises the mystical wedding between her and Jesus, and a <strong>lily<\/strong>, a symbol of purity, are represented.

The cousin who also tried to support her went to the garden and in the middle of the snow, she found a rose and two figs.
