The Crown of Twelve Stars of the Blessed Virgin Mary is a chaplet honoring Our Lady’s heavenly crown, as seen in the Book of Revelation where she appears as “a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet and a crown of twelve stars on her head.” Each star in this cherished chaplet represents both the twelve tribes of Israel and the twelve apostles, uniting the Old and New Covenants in her divine motherhood. Through three sets of contemplative prayers, we honor Mary as the beloved Daughter of the Father, the chosen Mother of the Son, and the pure Spouse of the Holy Spirit.
