    The Christian tradition knows seven sorrows of Mary. The biblical basis for the veneration of the Sorrows of Mary is the prophetic words of Simeon at the presentation of Jesus in the temple: "But a sword will pierce through your own soul" (Luke 2:35). The Seven Sorrows of Mary are the opposite pole to the Seven Joys. Specifically, they refer to the painful experiences in Mary's life.
