Historically, this is how Lucy enters occult and occultural use that is not as miracle-worker, but as a stable symbol of disciplined sight.

Her feast day, December 13, aligned in popular memory with the deepest point of the year before calendar reform. As a result, Lucy occupies a liminal position in the ritual year: a marker of darkness managed by controlled light.

The eye motif emerges late but persists because it is effective: Lucy becomes a figure through whom perception is formalized, separated, and preserved. In premodern devotion and folk belief, she is invoked for clarity.

By the medieval period, she is consistently depicted holding her eyes on a plate. An iconographic device that fixed her role as patron of vision, regardless of which legend variant is told.

December 13 is the celebration of Saint Lucy.
Lucy was a 4th-century martyr whose cult formed around light and sight, reinforced by name (lux) and later visual tradition. By the medieval period, she is consistently depicted holding her eyes on a plate.

I really don’t use this platform enough so here’s a fun way to jump back in: sharing an eye-catching selfie that draws your attention to my fundraiser, making it possible for me to attend and read tarot at #OccultureConference in October. If you can donate or share, thank you! gofundme.com/luketarot
