- The Tradition of the Pilar
According to the Venerable and Age Old Tradition, The Virgen Mary, awaiting in Jerusalem just before her Glorious Ascension to The Heavens, came to Zaragoza to console and cheer up The Apostle Santiago. Santiago, with The First Converted Faithfuls, was preaching on the banks of the Ebro .This was the night of the 2 of January of the 40th Year of The Cristian Era.
There are Three Curious Detailes that Characterize this Tradition:
- It was a coming in Person of The Virgen not a Vision.
- Another characteristic of This Tradition is The Column or Pilar that The Virgen Mary brought for The First Mariano Temple to be built upon. This was The First in All Cristianity.
- The third aspect is The Union between The Pilar Tradition and The Jacobean Tradition. For this reason Zaragoza and Compostela, The Pilar and Santiago constitute a Fundamental Axis around which The Spirituality of The Spanish Homeland has moved.
