As both a Catholic and a hat maker, I greatly appreciate this video. I have been working to bring back the Saturno on as many priests as possible. God bless.
Thank you very much for presenting important and interesting information about the Church in a concise yet profound way. Special thanks for taking a look at Eastern Catholicism in your videos - thus the Universal Church is displayed in its beautiful variety. I'm a Ukrainian Greek Catholic :)) Appreciate your content.
Thx for the video, i never knew there are so many hats and their meanings..i got lost in the middle of the video when the names, meanings, and colors represent LOL
Yeah, it was a bit overwhelming. I originally wanted to cover even more hats that were non clerical (like nuns' wimple) but that would have been even more complex.
And I thought I was the only one interested in ecclesiastical headgear 🤠Great video thank you. Interesting in fact. The Cappello Saturno is making a comeback 🙏
Theoretically, he can choose to maintain his own rite's attire. Even some recent Latin rite popes chose to ignore some details of the traditional pope attire eg Pope Francis omitted the full usage of choir dress entirely when he meets foreign dignitaries. He also chose to wear white cassock made of lighter materials. My point is, a pope can choose whatever he want or modify or omit, as long he is recognisable as both the head of Catholic clergy and the head of state.
all in all, most of these headgear have practical functions rather than symbolic one, probably to make known to the people about a cleric's rank in the clergy or simply to give them more comfort in certain weather. But it would be great if you mention that small hood that were used to be present at the back of every clergy's mozetta. I suppose it is a headdress too.
Yes, @@jayce_2000, I know the protocols--but that's just the thing. In ordinary parish life there aren't many processions (other than the beginning and end of Mass), nor are there many occasions that call for choir vesture. That's why I said I wish I had more occasions to use the zucchetto and biretta!
Simply Mitre on Good Friday?! I concede, we do fast then, but I’d suspect that all of Holy Week, especially it liturgy of the Triduum would be elevated (other than the notion that it is a time for fasting, it was then that the victory over sin and death was won)!
Good Friday is a day of penitence, and the Holy See advises keeping the Lenten fast in general through Holy Saturday; it is Easter Sunday that is a day of feasting.
Biretta symbolizes the four gospels and a three section to which the server holds the middle to pass to the celebrant which symbolizes the holy trinity. Now what the woolly pom pom symbolizes? I appreciate a reply In domino
The bishop’s zucchetto and biretta were black until recently. In the late 19th century the popes changed it to purple, and let bishops wear it during most of mass. Maybe they thought the church’s image needed a facelift among the political revolutions.
there are many laymen's headgears that resembles saturno. As long you wear non clerical clothing, no one would confuse you with a clergy if you wear a saturno. Saturno (or any hat that resembles it) looks cool!
@@nathantang9964well, I didn't say there are hats out there that looks exactly like a clergy's saturno, but I think I saw one, somewhere in the Internet, but I dunno the name of that hat. You might wanna google it.
The Triregnum's retirement is mentioned in the video, and local priests wear special headgear pretty infrequently. There's definitely been a comeback in recent years though - at least in more traditional circles.
@@CatechesisVids Roman Catholics don't. Priests don't. They didn't say most are only used for Liturgical use. Old fashioned. They wore all that pre-Vat. II.
Liturgically speaking, these hats are still permitted for the current missal. How many priests choose to make use of them is not the concern of the video, but the number is not zero.
What is said about mitres is wrong; the simple and gold mitres had specific roles in the Mass. This was done away with in the new rite and so the reason for the classification no longer applies. So the three different categories do not indicate the importance of a feast.
@@CatechesisVids I've checked the source and the source is misleading. It's based on a 15th century ceremonial by Agostino Patrizi Piccolomini specifically for the papal court. The manual of episcopal ceremonies (1948) describes many times how multiple types of mitres are used during the same ceremony.
You have a copy of The Church Visible on hand? I had to get mine out of the Notre Dame library, although you might be able to find a Google books preview. That was my primary source on this video. I also checked TH-cam streams of various masses and googled images of bishops at Mass to verify.
@@CatechesisVids I was referring to the link to the Catholic Encyclopedia entry on mitres, which you provided as source. If 'The Church Visible' provides some other source or reasoning feel free to quote the book here, but I think the fact that multiple mitres are currently being used in traditional pontifical masses is pretty much conclusive.
Different mitres being used during a liturgy is fine depending on context. A mitre can be used to designate different parts of the same Mass, or to designate different importance if multiple bishops are celebrating.
This was a great video, but i think it might have been important to mention how the mitre isnt pagan, contrary to common belief. Religionforbreakfast recently did a great video on this th-cam.com/video/fzubjTIaDm8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ll9B6_2IrPcexwdr
I didn't watch it, but the video you linked doesn't provide any sources (academic or otherwise) either in its description or during the end card; I'm inclined to disregard it out if hand due to lack of rigor.
@@CatechesisVids I'm watching through it and Religion4Breakfast seems to show the sources he is using concurrently to his statements in the video. Perhaps it deserves a more thorough view through (if it is fine with you, of course), since he does seem to be a religious studies scholar
@DavidFlockhart, In correct. It is info that reminds me of my days in the United States Marine Corps. When I became an E-4 I had to take my Dress Blues trousers to the tailor to have the the "blood stripes" sewn on. Those stripes have symbolic meaning in the Corps. I've seen photos of various forms or attachments to officer's Dress Blues that have a history, tradition, and regulations to them that are beyond my scope of knowledge. If I recall correctly some or all Marine officers can, under certain conditions or regulations, wear a cape. United States Navy, Army or the French Foreign Legion, or Russian Cossack's, British judicial system, long standing institutions and identities have developed overtime clothing and jewelry that denotes certain things about them or the individuals in them. If you ever take an anthropology course you'll discover this one observable thing that distinguishes humans from other animal life. To have zero regard for clothing, jewelry, beauty is to become more like a chimpanzee and less like a human.

God bless you eastern brother✝️❤
Our priest sometimes wears the biretta. This was very interesting to learn
Deacons wear them, too.
Yea my priest wore spurs on his boots.
Really interesting. Excellent video. Well done.
Such a hidden topic and helpful video. Thank you for your work!
We need to go back to our traditional hats, Very beautiful❤
Very informative! And well done! Thank you for all the work you put into this. God bless 🕊️

Thank you for this video. I have seen these hats been worn but never knew their meaning. I will look in the resources you provided for this topic.
Awesome! I learned a lot from this video. Thank you very much!
In Spanish we call the zuchetto "solideo", meaning that you only take it in the presence of God (consecration).
Thank you for your research
And I thought I was the only one interested in ecclesiastical headgear 🤠Great video thank you. Interesting in fact. The Cappello Saturno is making a comeback 🙏
My brother in Christ, you need to review the Phillipi Collection and do a follow-up series on this video. We have SO MANY MORE HATS!!!!
If you check the description, the Phillipi collection was actually one of my sources on this video.
@@CatechesisVids Molto bene.
I was just wondering about this tge other day awesome video and way to include the Eastern church
Well you did a good job.
Very interesting
great video.
Very interesting!
If an Eastern Catholic bishop became pope, would he wear his regular eastern attire, or would he wear the western attire?
Actually an interesting question
The Pope is responsible for the Latin Rite, so I guess he would switch to the western attire.
Good question.
Theoretically, he can choose to maintain his own rite's attire. Even some recent Latin rite popes chose to ignore some details of the traditional pope attire eg Pope Francis omitted the full usage of choir dress entirely when he meets foreign dignitaries. He also chose to wear white cassock made of lighter materials. My point is, a pope can choose whatever he want or modify or omit, as long he is recognisable as both the head of Catholic clergy and the head of state.
Can an Eastern Catholic become a pope? I thought you needed to be part of the latin rite
all in all, most of these headgear have practical functions rather than symbolic one, probably to make known to the people about a cleric's rank in the clergy or simply to give them more comfort in certain weather. But it would be great if you mention that small hood that were used to be present at the back of every clergy's mozetta. I suppose it is a headdress too.
Fantastic, thank you!
You're very welcome
Even hats have lore.
I am a priest, and I own a zucchetto and a biretta. I wish I had more occasion to use them!
Yes, @@jayce_2000, I know the protocols--but that's just the thing.

IF Catholics priests want to wear dresses, and funny hats, LET EM.
Thanks for your permission?
I’d like to see a resurgence in the Saturno.
Simply Mitre on Good Friday?! I concede, we do fast then, but I’d suspect that all of Holy Week, especially it liturgy of the Triduum would be elevated (other than the notion that it is a time for fasting, it was then that the victory over sin and death was won)!

Biretta symbolizes the four gospels and a three section to which the server holds the middle to pass to the celebrant which symbolizes the holy trinity. Now what the woolly pom pom symbolizes?
I appreciate a reply
In domino
No idea
Nice video, but I might have to watch 20 times to get it.
Please do 😅
I heard the mitre resembled a fish. the fish being an early christian symbol
That sounds like unfounded pop history
I had no clue that a priest could wear a black zuchetto, I thought only Abbots could wear one
The bishop’s zucchetto and biretta were black until recently. In the late 19th century the popes changed it to purple, and let bishops wear it during most of mass. Maybe they thought the church’s image needed a facelift among the political revolutions.
Norbertines 😍😍😍😍🙇🏼♂️🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
do you think it would be ok for a lay person to wear a saturno type hat or is it so distinctive as a clerical hat that it would be wrong?
It would be potentially confusing, but it's doubtful one could be identified as wearing a saturno if one did not have a roman collar.
there are many laymen's headgears that resembles saturno. As long you wear non clerical clothing, no one would confuse you with a clergy if you wear a saturno. Saturno (or any hat that resembles it) looks cool!
@@MeowCockadoodledoo what's an example of a hat like the saturno? I can't seem to find any
@@nathantang9964well, I didn't say there are hats out there that looks exactly like a clergy's saturno, but I think I saw one, somewhere in the Internet, but I dunno the name of that hat. You might wanna google it.
I always thought the tiara's 3 crowns meant the crowns of the trinity.
I'd like to see a good 10 gallon hat worn by the Bishops.
👍
Most of that hasn't been used since Vat. II. I haven't seen priests wear anything.The Pope's haven't worn the Triregnum for decades.
The Triregnum's retirement is mentioned in the video, and local priests wear special headgear pretty infrequently. There's definitely been a comeback in recent years though - at least in more traditional circles.
@@CatechesisVids Old information.
No, the information in this video is the current practices pertaining to these hats as regards their liturgical standing.

Pope Francis would look good wearing the papal tiara.
guessed he is not a big fan of those thing, despite he himself was gifted a real papal tiara. But as a pope, he sure accepts it gladly.
Unfortunately, modern popes have thrown their hats in the trash to feel accepted in the modern world.
Having chosen Francis, it's highly unlikely he would wear a tiara.
The pope is the governor of the world ?!
Every secular power is judged by the Pope. They used to agree with this too. You should Google what happened to Holy Roman Emperor Henry IV.
"All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me." And, since the Pope is the Vicar of Christ ... .
Yes.
The laity need religious wear
Altar servers and some choirs have special garb.
Kitsch !
This should be of no interest at all to anyone with a brain, unless of course you are into fancy dress parties.
Then why do you sound braindead?
Or if you are into the Truth..😎
