Mother Mary is pictured stepping on a serpent because in Genesis it was the serpent that tricked Adam and Eve into eating of the forbidden fruit. For a complete understanding of this read Genesis 3:14-15. There you will find what God says to the serpent regarding Mary who is the woman God speaks of in that passage.
