Standard Shipping with Traching Number As early as the 11th century, it may have initially had the form of Saint Benedict's cross, and was used by pope Leo IX. The reverse side of the medal carries the Vade retro Satana ("Begone, Satan!") formula which has been used by Christians to ward off evil since the 15th century. Sometimes carried as part of the rosary, it is also found individually. Catholics are not permitted to perform exorcisms but they can use the Saint Benedict Medal, holy water, the crucifix, and other sacramentals to ward off evil. The Saint Benedict Medal in the middle of a Celtic Cross is believed to be a powerful tool against evil influences. Any time you use St. Benedict's Medal or Medal-Cross for these particular purposes, tradition invites you to say five Gloria Patri to Jesus Passion, three Hail Mary to the Blessed Virgin Mary, and a Lord's Prayer to St. Benedict. In order to enter more deeply into the spirit of devotion, it is advisable to say these prayers every day. Add this piece to your own collection to compliment your unique style?
