Icon of Virgin Mary the Double Hagiography. Virgin Mary the Double: Panagia Dextokratousa (Eleousa, Agape or Pogiristica) and Panagia Aristokratousa (Odigitria, Hateful).
The explanation that people give for these names of the Virgin Mary is that the Virgin Mary the Agape is the one who brings love, who makes man love himself and others, and the Virgin Mary the Pogirist is the one who “purged” evil, the one who sends evil away from people. Virgin Mary Hateful, because she is the one who makes an adulterer or an adulteress understand their mistake and hate the sin they are doing, so that they can come back to their marital home, to their family.
