    I started veiling about a year ago (I’m 71) because I felt prompted by Mother Mary to return to the practice. Although I was self conscious at first, I offered it up to God as an atonement for all of my previous lack of reverence in my younger days. I love veiling now - it is a reverence and and outward sign that I believe in the True Presence of my Lord on the Altar.

      I had the same experience! Mary politely asked me to start veiling one day when I was saying the Rosary about four years ago. It's been a process, but now I would never go into Mass without a head covering. I'm not a lace person (trial and error) so now I just use a simple scarf like the Orthodox women do. At first I was self conscious too, but I would say to myself, it's OK if it's just you and Mary and wearing a veil. More and more women are veiling at my church now :)

    I’ve been veiling for 5 years. My converted friend mentioned she veiled and it started a little spark in me. I do it because it helps me focus at mass. I also honor Christ and Our Mother by doing it.
    I remembered my grandmother and her sisters veiling after it was relaxed and how beautiful and prayerful they looked.
    After I started veiling I visited mom and when she saw me veiling she took her old veils out, showed me the one dad gifted her when they were engaged late 50s and decide to also veil.
    I don’t care what people think about me and I have seen how many more women veil. The first day I was one of two, in my new parish I’m one out of a third of the women in the church and all the girls continue use their first communion veil after making their first communion.

    I returned to the faith in 2021 and even when praying at home I kept hearing reverence, reverence. Then one day, whilst praying the rosary, I heard my paternal Grandmother say, 'where is my veil? Get my veil, cover your head'. I had inherited it when my Grandfather passed, because as a child I had loved to wear it, thinking I was Jackie Kennedy or some 1960s movie star. But as soon as I began wearing it in mass, it opened the flood gates of repentance, forgiveness and respect for the traditions of the Catholic faith, (makes me tear up just thinking about it). Thank you immaculate heart of Mary, Queen of heaven for your loving hand of guidance in my journey to your son, for all honour and glory to the Father, the son and the Holy Spirit.

    The SSPX explains that women veil in church for the same reason the Tabernacle is veiled, because of their inherent holiness Women share in a special way with God in the creation of life. This is a holy mystery and as such deserves a special veiling, which places women in a special, more reverent and reverence-inspiring role within the church.

    My grandmother, mother, and myself grew up in the Catholic Church, and the women wore HATS-and gloves. The veil was common for all women in the Middle East in the time of Christ. Veils were a part of women’s formal clothing-whenever they left home-from ancient times until the 18th or 19th Century. Fashions changed, and women started wearing hats in those centuries. My family has pictures of weddings for more than a hundred years. The only woman wearing a veil was the bride, though sometimes her attendants wore a mini-veil. All the other women wore hats-and gloves. A properly dressed woman didn’t leave her home without them. In the 1960’s, we were starting to give up hats-as well as gloves-in public. At Mass, we were told to make sure we still wore something on our heads to show respect-in the same way that men removed their hats when entering a church. The only reason the chapel veil became popular was because of Jackie Kennedy. I started Catholic school in 1960, the same year that Kennedy became president, and that’s when the shoulder-length mantilla became popular. We also had little pancake-shaped veils that some of the girls wore. If we forgot to bring either type of veil to school on a Mass day, we were told to bobby-pin a tissue on our head, because we HAD to wear something. Think of how stupid and disrespectful that looked! Vatican II began in 1963, shortly before Kennedy was assassinated. He had been the first president in history not to wear his top hat-which he had at the Inauguration-for the inaugural parade. That’s when hats and gloves were going out of fashion, and Vatican II followed suite. Mrs. Kennedy “brought back” the custom of wearing a fingertip-length widow’s veil-along with her black pill-box hat-as a fashion statement and a remembrance of Abraham Lincoln’s Funeral, along with the caisson and riderless horse. The funeral veil had gone out of fashion by the 1940’s. Maybe you are thinking of all the religious sisters, who “took the veil” with their religious habit. They were the only women at Mass wearing “the sacred veil” in the 20th Century.

    The video states that the 1983 code of canon law did not include the requirement for women to wear veils "marking the official end of the mandatory practice". Based on our Catholic faith, wearing a head covering is obligatory. The conclusion that wearing a head covering is now not mandatory is incorrect and will mislead women into thinking they do not have to wear a head covering. Something that has been commanded by an Apostle in Scripture, taught by the Fathers of the Church in both the east and the west (see Sts. Jerome, Augustine, Chrysostom), taught by saints, taught by popes, taught by Doctors of the Church (see St. Aquinas), made canon law in 1917, depicted in art for ages, and practiced universally by christians from India to England for approx 2,000 years cannot be made a choice because somebody removed it from canon law in 1983. No person on Earth has the authority to jettison a 2,000 year old treasured, universal, inheritance of the Church. In the Catholic Church, we are not required to leave our brain at the church door and blindly follow whatever our priest, bishop, or pope says but need to listen to their teachings, or lack thereof, and then by prayer and careful study withhold our assent if their teachings are not appropriate (see the Commonitory by St. Vincent de Lerins as an example of the Catholic way of understanding true teaching from all the confusing ideas that have been discussed today and throughout the history of the Church). In the case of head coverings, this is simple to do because the history of head coverings is well documented and because head coverings was universal for all times and all places. The idea that you have a choice in wearing head coverings was a fad that originated in the 1960s during the feminist and sexual revolutions and most assuredly is a product of those non-Catholic movements and should give us pause.

      @@FaithFocusNetwork Uh, no! As with Jesus, I'm a Bible-only person, which tells us to study it as a workman by rightly handling it to be approved by God because every word in it is flawless and is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness so that the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works. Jesus said if anyone loves Him, they will keep my word, and my Father will love them, and they will come to Him and make His home with Him. Those who do not love Jesus will not keep His Word.
      The Bible says that the Scriptures alone, and not the traditions of men, are divinely inspired. Just as the traditions of the Israelites resulted in people honoring God with their lips, their hearts were far from Him. They worshiped God in vain because they rejected and left the commandments of God to establish their traditions of fallen men and hold to them, making the written Word of God ineffectual. Jesus told the people that they had a fine way of rejecting the commandments of God in order to establish their traditions. Every Born-Again Christian is to actively make sure that no one takes them captive by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the world, and not according to Jesus.
      The Bible alone must be used to verify and test the traditions and teachings of the Church, not the other way around. Jesus continually rebuked the Pharisees and called them hypocrites because they made their traditions equal to the written Word of God. Traditions should support the teaching of the Bible and not contradict, transgress, or exceed what it says.

      @@FaithFocusNetwork Apparently, you don't understand that Jesus is God and is the Author of the Bible?
      It is clear that you do not know:
      - that the entire Old Testament (OT) Canon of 39 books was completed by 400 BC and that there is no evidence that any Jews, at any time or in any place, accepted the Apocrypha (14 books) as Holy Scripture? Every legitimate historical source available substantiates that there was a fixed or closed OT Canon of Scripture before the time of Jesus with well-known limits.
      - the Greek word 'parádosis' translated as 'traditions' in 1 Cor 11:2 comes from the root word 'paradídōmi,' which means 'a giving/handing over which is done by word of mouth OR in writing, which is how the Old Testament was passed down.
      - the first-century Church had the complete Old and New Testaments written before AD 100.
      - the 27 New Testament writings were compiled into one book in AD 144 by Marcion of Sinope.
      - the first actual Canon was the Muratorian Canon, which was compiled in AD 170.
      - the Council of Hippo (AD 393) and the Council of Carthage (AD 397) also affirmed the same 27 books as authoritative.
      "All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work." (2 Timothy 3:16-17 ESV)

    The hair is an important part of the fashion world. Depending on the hair you may be concieved as attractive or not. It is a kind of ornament, for men, but especially for women. The Veil covers the hair, because one doesn't go into the church to get attention by men, or other women. Veiling shows that the mass isn't about you, it is about that what is happening at the altar.
    And also reading St. Alfonsus de Liguori I can understand why feminists would call veiling as a part of the "patriarchy".
