ABOUT THE ICON
What the seven arrows mean
The icon shows the Mother of God pierced by seven swords. It recalls the words of Simeon the God-receiver: «a sword shall pierce through thy own soul also». The number seven means the fullness of the sorrow she bore at the Cross. The icon was found in the north of Russia, near Vologda, its feast is 26 August.
People pray before the Seven Arrows icon for peace in the home, for reconciliation and for softening of hard hearts, and it is often hung by the entrance. The catalogue has it in 8 x 11, 13 x 18 and 21 x 28 cm, in a gift box and on a stand.
