The Middle Ages were an era saturated with the supernatural. To the medieval mind, the world was not divided between the natural and the miraculous as it often is today. Rather, divine intervention, celestial signs, and wondrous events were woven seamlessly into the fabric of everyday life. Miracles were not seen as violations of natural law, but as divine corrections or reinforcements of a moral order too often obscured by human sin. The miraculous was pedagogical—it taught, it warned, it moved. Miracles and messages were not merely stories for the faithful; they were the instruments by which the Church, chroniclers, mystics, and artists conveyed profound theological and ethical truths to a deeply hierarchical, yet emotionally invested society.
