The Archangel Saint Michael: The Guard of Light
A major figure of spiritual protection, Saint Michael watches over the borders of the visible and the invisible. His image evokes active defense, moral uprightness, and the ability to maintain integrity in the face of negative influences from the outside world.

The Protective Prayer and the Circle of Stars
The inscription Saint Michael Protect Us turns the medal into a request for constant assistance. The ten stars arranged around the edge symbolize celestial clarity guiding the walker through the night, ensuring constant vigilance on their path.

The Dragon’s Battle: The Inner Boundary
The battle scene symbolizes the line separating order from chaos. The lance topped with the cross conquering the dragon recalls that certain forces must be contained firmly to preserve inner balance and peace of mind.

Since Antiquity associated with truth and inner vision, lapis-lazuli evokes the celestial vault and the presence of the forces of light. Its deep hue accompanies the protection symbolism and fosters lucid perception in moments of uncertainty.
