Saturday, May 6 : Saint Albert the Great
Heaven has two pivots around which the whole sky turns: these are its two poles. One of them is the Savior, situated at the center because he is full of light and in him there is no darkness; the other is the womb in which he was made flesh. Around these two poles the sky turns, with the help of the intercession of the Mother and of the redemption on the Cross. Indeed, through the intercession of Mary and through the blood and the body of the Redeemer, the Lord exercises his justice over the peoples. The axis of mercy that upholds the world revolves around these two pivots or poles because, through the Mother we gain access to the Son and, through the Son, to the Father. Thus guided we have no fear of seeing reconciliation denied us. These two stars, the pivots or poles of heaven, are immobile. The whole circumference of heaven revolves around them as if around two necessary fixed points.
