Mary Undoer of Knots Novena
When you begin a new novena, each day is appropriately marked as passed, current or coming.
The Novena to Mary, Undoer of Knots was inspired by a German baroque icon featuring the Blessed Virgin Mary, surrounded by the heavenly host and under a dove representing the Holy Spirit, undoing knots while crushing the head of the serpent under her heel.
Both the icon and the devotion to Mary, Undoer of Knots, trace their roots to a passage from a famous work "Against Heresies" by a second-century bishop, Saint Irenaeus of Lyons. In discussing Mary's role as the Second Eve, Saint Irenaeus writes that "the knot of Eve's disobedience was loosed by the obedience of Mary. For what the virgin Eve had bound fast through unbelief, this did the virgin Mary set free through faith."
In popular devotion, this image was extended to the Blessed Virgin's intercession for us in Heaven. The knot is a good representation of the results of sin in our spiritual life: As we engage habitually in sin, it becomes harder and harder to return to virtue, just as a knot that is pulled tighter and tighter becomes harder to untie. God's grace, however, offered to us through the intercession of the Virgin Mary, can undo any knot and conquer any sin.

I find it to make me feel comfort in the distress I'm in.
Oh, Holy Mother thank you for this Novena. Watching it on televsion and praying along, while observing the artwork showing the tremendous suffering our Lord experienced for the sake of our salvation,the great sorrow of Our Holy Mother. Magnificent artwork cannot convey the atrocity of the evil of the Roman cruelty and the viciousness of the people mocking the Son of God. Our Lord who gave all. his love and his life to pay for our sins and open the gates of heaven.
So great thank you jesus
