Mary,Our Lady of Quatlasupe,She who crushes the head of the serpent, is leading...(Catholic Caucus)
Catholic Onlilne ^ | 12/12/2013 | Fr. James Farfaglia

The ancient temples of the Aztecs, interesting archeological sites of the past, have been replaced by the new temples of materialism, secularism and consumerism. On their altars the poor, the unborn and the elderly are forgotten, neglected and sacrificed by knives driven by greed, power and narcissism.  Mary will lead humanity back to her Son.  Mary will free us from the sins of our modern times.  Mary, Our Lady of Quatlasupe - She who crushes the head of the serpent, is leading the new evangelization.

 

CORPUS CHRISTI, TX (Catholic Online) - There is an amazing connection between the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception which is celebrated on December 8 and the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe which is celebrated on December 12.  Actually, in many ways, these two beautiful Marian celebrations are one and the same feast day. 

And why is this so?

Let us focus our attention on the First Reading from the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception taken from the Book of Genesis.  In the reading we hear these words:

"The Lord God said to the serpent: 'Because you have done this, you shall be banned from all the animals and from all the wild creatures; on your belly shall you crawl, and dirt shall you eat all the days of your life. I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers; he will strike at your head, while you strike at his heel" (Genesis 3: 14 - 15).

"I will put enmity between you and the woman." Who is the woman in this text from Genesis. The woman is not Eve, but the new Eve, Mary.

Re-read Genesis. Our salvation is announced even there. I think it’s Genesis 3

And, of course, any unnamed woman in scripture has to be the BVM.

It could be Eve, too, for the verse says “her offspring”

Quatlasupe???

Good grief!
The spelling of Guadalupe isn't that hard to check.

Read it again. Her offspring (Jesus) will crush the head of the serpent.

I don’t believe it is a typo. Check out this article: http://www.catholic.org/national/national_story.php?id=53523 “Experts believe that title Our Lady of Guadalupe came from a misunderstanding of the translation into Spanish of the word Nahuatl coatlaxopeuh. Thus, Our Lady of Guadalupe is in reality Our Lady of Quatlasupe - She who crushes the head of the serpent. “
