Devotion to Our Lady of the Nine Hail Marys said to Anna Catherine Emmerick

This novena was born from the river of revelations that S. Brigida of Sweden had in 1300 and which then confirmed the seer Caterina Emmerick in the mid-1800s.

Thus, with 9 Ave Maria, the gestation that Saint Anna had is honored, in fact, each ave Maria corresponds to one month of pregnancy.

This is not a well-known devotion nor particularly advocated by the Church but it certainly does not present any contraindications from the doctrinal point of view and is therefore recommended to those who are pregnant.

Disclose it and then testify the effectiveness of this PIA PRACTICE.

In the Apocryphal Gospels (in particular that of James) an angelic vision is narrated that heralded the maternity of St. Anne (see icon)

Being Mary, for DOGMA, the Immaculate Conception, it is certainly logical to accept the maternity of St. Anna as an extraordinary and unique fact, not so much for the presumed angelic apparition, but for the fact in itself.

There is also no question of the holiness that of the mother of Mary (the grandmother of Jesus), we can discuss on her Name that tradition brings us back as Anna but that matters little in the substance of the facts.

The Holy Virgin Mary said to Santa Brigida: "If the women in labor will celebrate the eve of the recurrence of my birth (September 7) with fasting and with the devotion of the nine Hail Marys, they will honor my stay in the womb, and if this commemoration was renewed more often by women in labor even during the course of their pregnancy, first of all on the eve of their birth with the reception of the Holy Sacraments, then I will take my prayers before God for them. In particular for those giving birth in difficult circumstances, I will urge God to help them to have a lucky birth. "

In an apparition to Anna Catherine Emmerick, the Holy Virgin Mary said to her: "Who, today at noon, to honor my birth (September 8) and to demonstrate his love for me in the time of my stay in the womb will be able to recite the Nine Hail Marys and continue for nine days, the Angel will then receive nine flowers from these prayers daily. He will bring them to me and I will immediately give them to the Most Holy Trinity urging you to answer the prayer of the praying person. "
