With a hymn composed in the eighth or ninth century, thus for over a thousand years, the Church has greeted Mary as 'Star of the Sea': Ave maris stella.

... Life is like a voyage on the sea of history, often dark and stormy, a voyage in which we watch for the stars that indicate the route. ...

Holy Mary, Mother of God, our Mother, teach us to believe, to hope, to love with you. Show us the way to his Kingdom!

Star of the Sea, shine upon us and guide us on our way!”

- Pope Benedict XVI, Encyclical Letter on Christian Hope (Spe Salvi) 49-50
