Mondsichelmadonna
The official seal of the Congregation is characteristically Marian, drawn from the image of the Woman of the Apocalypse. Encircled by rays which represent her far-reaching zeal and charity, the central device is the A and M monogram representing the words "Auspice Maria" ("under the guidance of Mary", also "Ave Maria"). Surrounding the "Auspice Maria" are twelve stars for the twelve privileges of Mary, the Mother of God, through which people receive her maternal blessings. Rays emanate from the starry monogram in seven groups, representing the graces that come from Jesus through Mary and signifying the Congregation's motto, "To Jesus through Mary".
