Meaning of the Saint Benedict Medal

The Saint Benedict Medal is a Catholic sacramental commonly used by Christian faithful for its ability to offer spiritual protection and strengthen faith.

The medal takes its name from Saint Benedict of Nursia, founder of the Benedictine Order.

The meaning of the Saint Benedict Medal is based on the teachings left by Saint Benedict, recognized for his battle against evil and resistance to temptations.

The medal is decorated with Latin abbreviations:

"Crux patris benedicti" (Cross of Father Benedict).

“Eius in obitu nostro praesentia muniamur” (May we be strengthened by his presence at our death).

"C S S M L and N D S M D“ = "Crux Sacra Sit Mihi Lux" (The Holy Cross be my light) and "Non Draco Sit Mihi Dux" (Let not the dragon be my guide).

C S P B = "Crux Sancti Patris Benedicti" (Cross of the Holy Father Benedict).

“V R S N S M V S M Q L I V B” = "Vade retro Satana, nunquam suade mihi vana, sunt mala quae libas, ipse venena bibas" (Begone, Satan, do not suggest vain things to me, evil is what you offer, drink your own poison).
