Saint Claire was born on July 16, 1194 ad died on August 11, 1253. She was an Italian saint and follower of Saint Francis of Assisi. Also, the founder of the Order of Poor Ladies and wrote their monastic rules, from which we can assume some qualities to her as leader and strict woman, not the kind of saint you call on to play around or take lightly, she commanded and ruled a nunnery in life.
Saint Claire lived a monastic life and there for is hardworking and austere, most of the workings related to her only ask for a glass of water and an egg. The use of these two elements comes from her use of a monstrance to chase away an army that wanted to assault her convent, she took out the monstrance from the altar, prayed to God and showed it to the soldier over the wall which caused them to run away in fear stricken down by God.
Considered to be the catholic patron saint of television and unofficial saint of psychics. Both of these associations come from her ability to see the mass projected on the wall of her bedroom while bedridden and sick. Called on to clear things up, from problems and confusion to uncrossing and road opening work, others ask her to help them make decisions, cleanse their homes and give them clarity.
Saint Claire Prayer: “Saint Clare, I ask in your most sacred and sweet name that you help me on the path of spiritual peace and material success.

Give me strength to resist temptation and live in wellness. Protect me and save me from all harm. I open my mind and heart believing in your infinite power. AMEN.”
Saints are spiritual beings who have been tasked with maintaining this Earth, watching over the affairs of humanity and each has dominion over a portion of nature. Each Saint is identified with natural forces as well as with human interests or endeavors. These Saints are mediators between humanity and the Supreme Being.
Pray to Saints because they are already in heaven, and they can intercede for you. In moments of anxiety, you need to hope and believe in something that helps you recover faith and maintain peace in your life.
