The Purple Scapular of Benediction and Protection

Measures approximately 3.5" x 4", cord is 20" long

"All those who are clothed [with it] shall pass under the storms, the tempests and the darkness, they will have light as if it were plain day." --Blessed Virgin Marry to Marie-Julie Jahenny

All those who will carry it will be preserved from thunder, from sudden death and from accidents. During chastisements they will be protected." Our Lord still says: "I shall grant great graces to those who desire to be clothed in this Holy Habit."

This Purple Scapular was given by Our Lady to the French Mystic Marie-Julie Jahenny in the 20th century in one of her ecstasies in 1878.  Julie-Marie was a devout, holy woman whom God chose to reveal prophetic visions about the future of the Church, the world, and the Three Days of Darkness, a chastisement predicted by many Saints as a punishment to the world for its many sins and crimes against God.  She was favored with the stigmata and suffered much in her life to promote the many revelations given to her by Our Lord and by Our Lady.  One of her most famous visions was that of the Purple Scapular, which was given to the world by Our Lady as a protection against the upcoming chastisements prophesied to Marie-Julie Jahenny.  The full prophecy of Our Lady regarding the Purple Scapular is below.

This Purple Scapular includes all the authentic features as Marie-Julie Jahenny saw the vision given by Our Lady.  It includes an information prayer pamphlet that explains the meaning of the Purple Scapular.  Although the Purple Scapular can be worn, it was primarily given by Our Lady to be displayed on a wall in ones home to receive the special blessings and protection against natural disasters, storms, intruders, and supernatural chastisements.

Marie-Julie Jahenny's Ecstasy of August 23, 1878:

“Here is what the Holy Virgin made me see on her Immaculate Heart, it is a large scapular, larger than ordinary scapulars, it is a little larger than the palm of a hand. It is a beautiful purple, almost the color of violet. Here is what is on it: in the middle, there are the three nails that crucified Our Savior on the Cross, some are crossed on the others, not exactly in the form of a cross and the point of each nail, there is a drop of red blood. Above the three nails, there is a type of large sponge that has raised ears, like those of balled oats. The three drops of blood will go to join together and fall into a small chalice painted in red, and the chalice is surrounded with a crown of thorns, and there are three little crosses engraved on the front of the chalice. This is the side of the scapular that is on the mantle of the Holy Virgin.

“I notice that this scapular hangs by two violet straps that pass over each shoulder, and there are three knots on the left shoulder, and two on the right. The other side of the scapular represents the Holy Virgin Mary sitting, holding her Adorable Son in her arms, the mouth and the Head of Our Lord rests on the heart of the Holy Virgin. At the lower end of the scapular, at the feet of Our Lord, is an Angel dressed in white, with curly hair, he has a white crown on his head, his belt is red. He has in his hands a white linen with which he wipes the feet of Our Lord. On the side of the Angel, to the right of the scapular, there is engraved a ladder. Behind Our Lord, to the left, the reed of the Passion painted in red, but without a sponge. The tears of the Holy Virgin fall on her breast, to the right, and they stop at the feet of the Angel. The scapular is edged with a red line and the straps are woolen. “Let me now, my dear child,” said the Holy Virgin, “explain to you the meaning of this scapular. I tell you, my victim and my servant. My servants of the Cross, that for a long time my Son and I have had the desire to make known this scapular of benediction. This scapular, my children, it is supposed to be made on my heart, because my heart is the emblem of simplicity and humility, and hence, the color violet. The nails that have pierced the feet and the hands of my Son have been little venerated and are venerable, hence my Son, in His Divine Wisdom, has made that these three nails be painted on the front of the scapular. These three drops of blood and the chalice represent the generous hearts gathering the Blood of my Divine Son. The red sponge will represent my Divine Son drinking, in a manner, the sins of His children but His Adorable Mouth refuses. I desire that the (black?) end of the scapular, be of violet, (the background?), but I desire that the nails, the chalice, the sponge and the crown be on a piece of dark red flannel. This first apparition of this scapular will be a new protection for the times of the chastisements, of the calamities and the famines. All those who are clothed (with it) shall pass under the storms, the tempests and the darkness, they will have light as if it were plain day. Here is the power of this unknown scapular.” The Holy Virgin presents the scapular to Our Lord who says in His turn: “I address you, My victim, and also My victims and My servant, My children of the Cross, I see and I come to give you an idea and profound thought: during My descent from the Cross they handed Me to My mother, this descent, this thought, this devotion is little known. I would like by this reproduction on this scapular, that it pass into the hearts of the children of the Cross, and that they salute Me by these three salutations:
“I salute You, Jesus crucified, that you grant me life.
I salute You with all the joy of the Angels and the Saints in Your descent from the Cross.
I salute you with the sadness of Your Mother when you reposed on her heart and on her Immaculate lap.”

“My children, very few souls think of wiping the Adorable Wounds of My Feet when the Blood ran and I would like this representation to be known. They also think so little of the tears shed by My Mother during My Passion; these tears are found at the feet of the Angel that wipes My Sacred Feet. By this scapular, I would like you to think on the ladder, the reed and the nails of My Passion. My children, all souls, all people who possess this scapular, will see their family protected, their home will also be protected, first of all from fires, which will never enter there. This scapular will strike down the ungrateful which blaspheme My Name in the home where it will be displayed. If an impious person enters, they will be so completely struck that their conversion will be close. All those who will carry it will be preserved from thunder, from sudden death and from accidents. During chastisements they will be protected. Whoever will deposit it in the Holy Temple, (I.e. in a church), will move it away from impious persons and profanation. (i.e., that church will be protected from these spiritual disasters.) Our Lord still adds that by reminding an obstinate soul about this scapular at the hours of their demise (i.e., death), they will awaken the Faith in it and a firm belief, that all those who will have it and think upon it and love it, will be spared the troubles of soul, that those who will carry it will be sheltered from any danger as though they already possessed Heaven. That this scapular, finally, will be as a lightning rod under which the blows of Just and Divine Wrath will not dwell. " Our Lord still says: "Every priest will be able to bless this scapular. By carrying this scapular they will be able to say 5 or 7 times the “Crux Ave” and meditate 1–3 minutes on My Holy Passion. I shall grant great graces to those who desire to be clothed in this Holy Habit."

The Purple Scapular of Benediction and Protection

The Purple Scapular of Benediction and Protection is a sacramental object primarily used for display on a wall in a home. It is a heavenly gift which promises divine protection for your family against natural disasters, storms, supernatural chastisements, and even intruders. In 1878 Our Lady gave the Purple Scapular to the world in a vision to the approved French mystic, Marie-Julie Jahenny.

ECSTASY OF AUGUST 23, 1878

Marie-Julie Jahenny

This is what the Holy Virgin shows me on Her Immaculate Heart:

It is a large scapular, larger than ordinary scapulars, a little larger than the palm of the hand. It is a pretty violet, nearly the color of a violet.

The side of the Purple Scapular with the sponge, the three nails and the chalice printed in red on dark red flannel
  1. Here is what is on top: In the middle are the three nails which crucified Our Lord on the Cross. They are placed above each other, not quite in the shape of the cross, and at the point of each nail, there is a drop of red blood.

  2. Above the heads of the nails, there is a kind of large sponge which has pieces of bark that stand out; it is a little like a stack of oats.

  3. The three drops of blood join to fall into a small chalice painted red, and the chalice is surrounded by a crown of thorns. There are three little crosses engraved on the front of the chalice.

  4. That is the side of the scapular which is on the middle cloak of the Holy Virgin.

Both sides of the Purple Scapular, joined by two violet ties
I notice that this scapular is held with two violet ties which go over each shoulder; there are three knots on the left shoulder and two on the right.

  1. The other side of the scapular represents the Holy Virgin Mary sitting, holding her adorable Son in her arms. The mouth and the head of Our Lord rest on the heart of the Holy Virgin.

  2. At the bottom of the scapular, and nearly at the feet of Our Lord, is an Angel dressed in white, with curly hair; he has on his head a white crown, and his belt is red. He holds in his hands a white cloth with which he wipes the feet of Our Lord.

  3. Next to the Angel, on the right side of the scapular, there is an engraved ladder.

  4. Behind Our Lord, on the left, is the reed of the Passion painted red, but there is no sponge.

  5. The tears of the Holy Virgin flow onto her breast to the right and fall to the feet of the Angel.

  6. The scapular is edged with a red band and the cords are made of wool.

this scapular of benediction

“Let me now my dear child” the Virgin Mother said to me, “give you the explanation of this scapular. I am addressing you, my victim and my servant (most likely the spiritual director of Marie-Julie). My children of the Cross, for a long time my Son and I have wished to make known this scapular of benediction.

“This scapular, my children, is modeled on my Heart, because my Heart is the emblem of simplicity and humility, which explains the color of violet.”

“The nails which have pierced the feet and the hands of my Son are seldom venerated, yet they are venerable. That is why my Son, in His Divine Wisdom, has had three nails painted on the front of the scapular.”

“Those three drops of blood and the chalice represent the generous hearts gathering the blood of my Divine Son.”

“The red sponge will represent my Divine Son drinking, in a certain sense, the sins of His children, but which His adorable mouth refuses.”

“I desire that the background of the scapular should be violet, but I ask that the nails, the chalice, the sponge and the crown should be on a dark red piece of flannel.”

“This first appearance of this scapular will be a new protection for the times of the chastisements, the calamities and the famines.

“All those who will wear it will be able to go through storms, tempests and darkness;

“they will have light as in broad daylight.

“Such is the power of this unknown scapular.”

The Holy Virgin holding Our Lord after He was taken down from the Cross, as printed on the scapular

a devotion that is little known

The Holy Virgin presents the scapular to Our Lord, who in His turn says:

“I address you, My victim and also My other victims and My servant, My children of the Cross. I wish to reveal to you an idea and a deep thought:

“When I was taken down from the Cross, I was given to My Mother.

“That descent, that matter for reflection, is a devotion that is little known. I wish that by the reproduction of this scapular, this reflection should penetrate the hearts of My children of the Cross, and that they would honor Me by these three salutations: (The Crux Ave)

The Crux Ave

these three salutations

  1. “I salute You, Jesus Crucified, that You grant me life.
  2. “I salute You with all the joy of the Angels and Saints in Your descent from the Cross.
  3. “I salute You with all the sorrow of Your Mother when You reposed on her Immaculate Heart and on her lap.”

“My children, very few souls think of wiping the adorable wounds on My feet when the blood flows. I would like this representation of Me to be made known. Little thought is also given to the tears shed by My Mother during My Passion: those tears are at the feet of the angel who wipes My sacred feet.

“By this scapular, I would like you to think about that ladder, that reed and those nails of My Passion.

this holy Habit

Our Lord also says,

“Any priest will be able to bless this scapular. You, My victim, will be able to make the model.

“Those who wear this scapular ought to pray the ‘Crux Ave’ 5 or 7 times

“and meditate for 1 to 3 minutes on My Passion.

“I will grant great graces to those who wear this holy Habit.”

Benediction and Protection

  • “My children, any soul, any person who possesses this scapular will see his family protected.”
  • “His house will also be protected, firstly from conflagrations, which will never penetrate it.”
  • “This scapular will strike down any ungrateful persons who might blaspheme My Name in the house where it will be exposed.”
  • “If an ungodly person enters, he will be so struck that his conversion will occur.”
  • “All those who wear it will be protected from thunder, sudden death and accidents.”
  • “During the chastisements they will be protected.”
  • “Whoever places it in the Holy Temple will drive out the impious and the profanations.”

Our Lord also adds that by reminding an obstinate soul about this scapular at the time of death, it will reawaken in that person faith and conviction.

All those who will think about it and love it will be spared affliction of their soul.

All those who wear it will be sheltered from all danger as if they already possessed Heaven.

Finally, this scapular will be like a lightning conductor beneath which the blows of just Divine Anger will not strike.
