{{Rosary}}
'''Rosary-based prayers''' are [[Christian prayer]]s recited on a set of [[rosary|rosary beads]], among other cords. These prayers recite specific word sequences on the beads that make up the different sections. They may be directed to [[Jesus Christ]], the [[Virgin Mary]] or [[God the Father]].
== Physical structure of a rosary ==
[[File:Rosary_2006-01-16.jpg|thumb|right|A [[rosary]] made of wooden beads.]]
The most common form of rosary is the [[Dominican rosary]]. This is made up of a total of 59 beads, or sometimes knots, and a crucifix, perhaps with a small medallion. The main loop comprises 50 beads (often called [[Hail Mary]] beads and named for the prayer they are used to count) arranged as five groups of 10 closely spaced beads called decades. In between most of these decades and separated by a greater distance is a single bead (called an [[Lord's Prayer|Our Father]] bead) which may be larger or otherwise distinctive. Attached between one pair of decades is a short string of five beads three of them closely spaced, two others separated by a larger distance. At the bottom of this short string is a cross or a crucifix. This short string may attach to the main loop by a centrepiece in the form of a medallion bearing the image of a saint, a Sacred Heart, or some other symbol.
Many other rosaries follow this basic plan, often with one or two extra decades and a like number of single beads being added and perhaps a different number of beads on the pendant string. Small rosaries may comprise a single decade on the loop while retaining five beads and a cross on the pendant. Large Dominican rosaries may have 169 beads to allow the recitation of 150 Hail Mary prayers without having to pass around the loop multiple times (the remaining 19 beads are fourteen Our Father beads on the loop with 5 beads on the pendant).
== Roman Catholic Rosaries ==
=== Bridgettine Crown ===
The rosary as prayed by the [[Bridgettine]] and [[Discalced Carmelites]] orders is a loop containing six decades and five single beads, together with a short string of beads leading to the crucifix.<ref name="Volz" /><ref>[https://www.sistersofcarmel.com/brigittine-crown-chaplet/ "Brigittine Crown", Sisters of Carmel, Carmelite Monastery of the Sacred Hearts]</ref> It was propagated by [[Bridget of Sweden]]. It adds one additional mystery to each of the three traditional sets of Dominican mysteries: the [[Immaculate Conception]] is added as the sixth Joyful Mystery, Christ's body being removed from the cross is the sixth Sorrowful Mystery, the Virgin Mary being matron of the Bridgettine order is the sixth Glorious Mystery. An example of the Bridgettine rosary may be seen depicted on the statue of the Crowned Virgin in the [[Sanctuary of Our Lady of Lourdes]].{{cn|date=May 2021}}
=== Carthusian Rosary ===
The Carthusian Rosary or Life of Christ Rosary developed by [[Dominic of Prussia]] comprises fifty recitations of Hail Mary each interpolated with a phrase stating a Christological or Mariological mystery. For example, "Hail Mary, full of grace, The Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women, And blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus, {{em|whose feet were washed with Mary Magdalene's tears, dried with her hair, anointed with her perfume}}. Holy Mary, Mother of God, Pray for us sinners, Now and at the hour of our death. Amen." (Italic or oblique section indicating the inserted mystery.) At the time Dominic lived, the Hail Mary comprised only the first half of today's longer prayer—just "Hail Mary..." to "... thy womb, Jesus"—so he was adding his phrase to the end of the prayer.<ref name=":0">{{Cite web |title=How do you recite the Carthusian Rosary? |url=https://ihmhermitage.tripod.com/id16.html |access-date=2023-10-21 |website=ihmhermitage.tripod.com}}</ref><ref name=":1">{{Cite web |title=Carthusian Rosary: University of Dayton, Ohio |url=https://udayton.edu/imri/mary/c/carthusian-rosary.php |access-date=2023-10-21 |website=udayton.edu}}</ref>
There are fifty such phrases commended by Dominic and it acquired its alternative name as these cover the life of Jesus more completely than other rosaries. While using all fifty meditative phrases is traditional, the rosary is intended to be contemplative, invites silence for the contemplation, and quality is emphasised over quantity with no need to recite fifty prayers let alone needing to recite all fifty meditations.<ref name=":0" />
The Carthusian Rosary is seen as an ancestor to the Dominican Rosary.<ref name=":1" />
=== Chaplet of the Divine Mercy ===
{{main article|Chaplet of the Divine Mercy}}
The Chaplet of the Divine Mercy was introduced and propagated by [[Faustina Kowalska]], a Polish religious sister of the [[Congregation of the Sisters of Our Lady of Mercy]]. According to her diary (''Diary 474-476)'', on 13 and 14 September 1935, this chaplet was dictated to her directly by Jesus Christ during visions when she was at the convent of [[Vilnius|Wilno]] (Vilnius).<ref>{{Cite web |title=The Chaplet of the Divine Mercy {{!}} EWTN |url=https://www.ewtn.com/catholicism/devotions/chaplet-of-the-divine-mercy-387 |access-date=2024-08-29 |website=EWTN Global Catholic Television Network |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=CNA |title=Divine Mercy Chaplet |url=https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/resource/55316/divine-mercy-chaplet |access-date=2024-08-29 |website=Catholic News Agency |language=en}}</ref> Faustina also said that Jesus granted several promises to the recitation of this chaplet.<ref name=":2">{{Cite web |title=Chaplet of the Divine Mercy {{!}} Mercy - Saint Faustina - Diary - Jesus, I trust in You - Congregation |url=https://www.saint-faustina.org/chaplet-of-the-divine-mercy/?wide=true#more-154 |access-date=2024-08-29 |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Chaplet of Divine Mercy {{!}} EWTN |url=https://www.ewtn.com/catholicism/devotions/chaplet-13364 |access-date=2024-08-29 |website=EWTN Global Catholic Television Network |language=en}}</ref>
The main focus of this prayer is to implore [[God the Father]]'s mercy for the person praying and for the whole world, through the merits of the [[Passion of Jesus|Passion of Christ]]. This prayer of God's mercy is centered on three themes: to obtain mercy, to trust in Christ's mercy, and to show mercy to others. The chaplet is prayed on ordinary rosary but according to the congregation, the chaplet should not be prayed the same way as an ordinary rosary: the decades should not be interspersed with meditations, intentions or any other prayers. Any intentions or texts are to be meditated upon at the beginning so that the entire prayer is said the way Jesus dictated it.<ref name=":2" />
=== Chaplet of the Immaculate Heart of Mary ===
The Rosary of Mary's Immaculate Heart is recited using an ordinary rosary. <ref>[https://udayton.edu/imri/mary/c/chaplets-various-kinds.php#anchor3 Roten, S.M., Johann. "Chaplets: Various Kinds", Marian Library, University of Dayton]</ref>
=== Chaplet of the Seven Sorrows ===
{{main article|Chaplet of the Seven Sorrows}}
The Chaplet of the Seven Sorrows, which is also called the Rosary of the Seven Sorrows, the Rosary of the Seven Swords or the Servite Rosary, is a chaplet that originated with the [[Servite Order]] and is a form of devotion to the [[Our Lady of Sorrows#Seven Sorrows of Mary|Seven Dolours of Mary]] and [[Our Lady of Sorrows]].
In 1233, seven members of a Florentine Confraternity devoted to the Mother of God founded the [[Servite Order]]. According to tradition, the Virgin Mary appeared to the young men and exhorted them to devote themselves to her service. They retired on [[Monte Senario]] near Florence, where they experienced another vision of Mary. There they formed a new Order called the Servants of Mary, or [[Servites]]. In 1239, they took up the sorrows of Mary standing under the Cross, known as Our Lady of Sorrows, as the principal devotion of their order.<ref>{{Cite web |title=CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Feasts of the Seven Sorrows of the Blessed Virgin Mary |url=https://www.newadvent.org/cathen/14151b.htm |access-date=2024-09-14 |website=www.newadvent.org}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2017-09-15 |title=Our Lady’s Seven Sorrows, Seven Promises, and Fatima’s Connection |url=https://www.ncregister.com/blog/our-lady-s-seven-sorrows-seven-promises-and-fatima-s-connection |access-date=2024-09-14 |website=NCR |language=en}}</ref> The Servites developed the three most common devotions to Our Lady's Sorrows, one of which is the Rosary of the Seven Sorrows.
During the 18th century, a set of introductory prayers for the Servite Rosary was written by [[Alphonsus Liguori]] in his book ''[[The Glories of Mary]]''.<ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=7uwCAAAAQAAJ&pg=PA481&dq=five+decades+slowly+fifteen+hurry+little#PPA611,M1 Liguori, Alphonsus. ''The Glories of Mary''. (translated from Italian) London: Redemptorist Fathers, St. Mary's. (1852) pp. 611-614]</ref>
Between 1981 and 1989, during the [[Marian apparition|Marian apparitions]] of [[Our Lady of Kibeho]] in [[Kibeho]], Rwanda, the Virgin Mary reportedly instructed one of the three recognized seers, Marie-Claire Mukangango, to spread the devotion to the Seven Sorrows Rosary. She also explained to her the graces associated with reciting the rosary.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2021-11-25 |title=Our Lady of Kibeho Calls for the Seven Sorrows Rosary |url=https://www.ncregister.com/blog/our-lady-of-kibeho-calls-for-the-seven-sorrows-rosary |access-date=2024-09-14 |website=NCR |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Holy Rosary - Sanctuary Our Lady of Kibeho |url=http://kibeho-sanctuary.com/en/liturgy/holy-rosary.html |access-date=2024-09-14 |website=kibeho-sanctuary.com}}</ref>
=== Dominican Rosary ===
{{main article|Rosary}}
The best known example of a rosary-based prayer is the Dominican Rosary which is ubiquitously called the rosary. In traditional form it involves contemplation on fifteen rosary mysteries (as three sets of five mysteries each), while [[Lord's Prayer|Our Father]], [[Hail Mary]] and [[Gloria Patri|Glory be to the Father]] prayers are recited.<ref>[http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/13184b.htm Thurston, Herbert, and Andrew Shipman. "The Rosary." The Catholic Encyclopedia] Vol. 13. New York: Robert Appleton Company, 1912. {{PD-notice}}</ref> Commonly, just one set of mysteries, out of three or four sets, is prayed.
This rosary prayer goes back several centuries and there are differing views among experts on its exact history.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.ewtn.com/library/ANSWERS/ROSARYHS.htm |title=History of the Rosary |first=Fr. William |last=Saunders | publisher=ewtn.com}}</ref> In the 16th century, [[Pope Pius V]] established the current form of the original 15 mysteries for this rosary and they remained so until the 20th century.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.ewtn.com/library/PAPALDOC/P5CONSUE.HTM|title=Consueverunt Romani Pope Pius V|accessdate=2007-02-10}}</ref> [[Pope John Paul II]] proposed an additional set of five mysteries known as the "Luminous" mysteries as a manner of reflecting on Christ's life during his public ministry. Some choose to pray the Luminous mysteries or retain the "Psalter of Our Lady" and pray the 15 original mysteries.
Further prayers specified in the [[Roman Catholic]] tradition include: the [[Fátima prayers]], the [[Litany of the Blessed Virgin Mary]] and the {{lang|la|[[Memorare]]}} of [[Bernard of Clairvaux]].<ref>{{cite web | url = http://www.theholyrosary.org/rosaryprayers | title = Additional prayers to the Holy Rosary | access-date = Sep 4, 2018 | language = en, de, es, fr, it, pt | website = thehoyrosary.org }}</ref>
=== Franciscan Crown ===
{{main article|Franciscan Crown}}
In 1263, Bonaventure, Minister General of the Order, encouraged liturgical devotion honoring the mystery of the [[Visitation (Christian)|Visitation]]. The [[Franciscan]] rosary, or as it is properly called, the Franciscan Crown and also known as the Rosary of the Seven Joys of Mary, developed in early part of the 15th century, and was officially established in 1422. The Franciscan Crown consists of seven decades of Hail Mary prayers, each preceded by an Our Father and followed by a Glory Be, and completed by two more Hail Marys after the 7th decade to complete the number 72 which is thought to be the age of Mary at the time of her [[Assumption of Mary|Assumption]]. The Crown recalls the [[Seven Joys of the Virgin|Seven Joys of Mary]] and how she responded to the grace of God in her life. These Seven Joys overlap with the Joyful and Glorious Mysteries of the Dominican Rosary. In addition to developing this Marian devotion, the Franciscans are credited with adding the final words to the Hail Mary: "Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners [from the writings of [[Bernardino of Siena]]] now and at the hour of our death [from the writings of the [[Servite]] Fathers and the [[Roman Breviary]]]."
=== Rosary of the Holy Wounds ===
{{main article|Rosary of the Holy Wounds}}
The Rosary of the Holy Wounds was introduced at the beginning of the 20th century by [[Marie Martha Chambon|Sister Mary Martha Chambon]], a [[Roman Catholic]] [[nun]] of the Monastery of the [[Order of the Visitation of Holy Mary]] in [[Chambéry]], France.
This rosary specifically meditates on the wounds of [[Jesus Christ]] as an [[Act of reparation|Act of Reparation]] for the sins of the world. This rosary also focuses on prayers for souls in [[purgatory]]. [[Marie Martha Chambon|Sister Mary Martha]] attributed the following purpose for the rosary to Jesus: "you must not forget{{nbsp}}[...] the souls in Purgatory, as there are but few who think of their relief{{nbsp}}[...] The Holy Wounds are the treasure of treasures for the souls in Purgatory."<ref>{{cite web |title=Legionnaires Praying for the Clergy |url=http://www.lpca.us/five_sacred_wounds.htm |publisher=lpca.us}}</ref><ref>{{cite book |last=Freze |first=Michael |url=https://archive.org/details/voicesvisionsapp00frez |title=Voices, Visions, and Apparitions |publisher=OSV Publishing |year=1993 |isbn=087973454X |url-access=registration}}</ref><ref>G.

=== St. Anthony's Rosary ===
The [[Irish people]] (specifically in the [[Gaeltacht]] areas) and their descendants in the global [[Irish diaspora]] have a tradition of saying 13 Aves rather than ten, in honour of [[Anthony of Padua]], whose feast day is 13 June. Also called the St. Anthony Chaplet, its prayers are accompanied by a poem called the Miraculous Responsory or {{lang|la|si quaeris}}, written by [[Bonaventure]].<ref>[https://www.stanthony.org/how-to-pray-the-chaplet-of-st-anthony-of-padua/ "How to Pray the Chaplet of St. Anthony of Padua", National Shrine of St. Anthony, Mt. Airy, Cincinnati]</ref>
=== Trinitarian Rosary ===
The term "Trinitarian Rosary" is used for at least two different rosaries or chaplets.
==== Trisagion rosary of the Trinitarian Order ====
First, it can refer to the special rosary or chaplet used by the [[Trinitarian Order]] (the Order of the Most Holy Trinity for the Redemption of Captives), which was founded in France in 1198. From an early date, the Trinitarians have used a form of prayer based on the [[Trisagion]] (sometimes ''Trisagium'' or ''Triagion'', from the Greek 'thrice' + 'holy'). This is a Byzantine prayer in praise of the Trinity: its simplest form is "Holy God, Holy Strong One, Holy Immortal One, have mercy on us."<ref name="Agios O Theos">{{cite web |title=Agios O Theos |url=http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/01211b.htm}}</ref>
The Trisagion rosary (usually called a chaplet) has three groups of nine beads. In reciting the chaplet, each group is preceded by the Trisagion and the Pater Noster. A special prayer is recited on each of the nine beads: "To you be praise, glory, and thanksgiving for ever, blessed Trinity. Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God of power and might; heaven and earth are full of your glory." Each group of nine prayers is followed by a Gloria Patri ("Glory be to the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit..."), and the whole ends with a closing prayer.<ref>{{cite web |title=Chaplet of the Holy Trinity |url=http://avemariascircle.com/zencart/Chapletpix/HolyTrinity.htm}}</ref>
As with other rosaries that are special to a particular religious Order, its history is rather cloudy. The first question is how long the Trinitarians have used the Trisagion and its associated prayers. The prayers themselves are quite old, and may well have come to the Trinitarians from Byzantium through their connections in the Middle East. The Trisagion itself can be traced at least as far back as the Council of Chalcedon (451 AD) and perhaps further.<ref name="Agios O Theos" /> The use of these particular prayers by the Trinitarians may very well date back to the beginnings of the Order.
A separate question is when beads began to be used to count these prayers. Reciting a certain number of prayers does not necessarily imply the presence of beads—prayers can be counted on one's fingers, by moving a peg from one hole to another, and so forth. It is possible that Trisagion beads were first seen in the 14th or 15th century—when other rosaries became popular, suggesting the concept of using beads as counters.<!--
Look into St. Micheal chaplet-->
==== Other Trinitarian rosaries ====
Secondly, the term ''Trinitarian rosary'' can refer to any set of Christian prayer beads on which prayers to the Holy Trinity (Father, Son and Holy Spirit) are recited.
A trinitarian rosary of this type can comprise the same basic form as the traditional Marian rosary with 5 decades of 10 beads and introductory prayers, et cetera. Or such prayers may be recited with the Anglican or other variants of the beads.
There are several of these Trinitarian rosaries, all of relatively recent origin. One, for instance, uses the prayer: "Almighty God, Almighty God, Heavenly King, You are the Lord! Blessed art thou in heaven, and blessed is thy sacred word! Holy Jesus, eternally begotten son of God, send your Holy Spirit upon us and kindle in our hearts the fire of your divine love!".
== Paternoster beads ==
{{Main|Paternoster beads}}
In [[monastic]] houses, monks were expected to pray the [[Liturgy of the Hours|Divine Office]] daily in [[Latin language|Latin]], the liturgical language of the [[Western Christian Church]]. [[Christian monastics]], in addition to clergymen, "recited or chanted the 150 [[Psalms]] as a major source of hourly worship."<ref name=Solitaries>{{cite web|url=http://www.solitariesofdekoven.org/how_to_use.html#cords|title=Anglican Prayer Beads|year=2015|publisher=Solitaries of DeKoven|language=English|accessdate=7 June 2015|location=[[Santa Anna, Texas|Santa Anna]]|quote=The Pater Noster cord originated in Ireland in the 8th Century...In the [[British Isles]], people living near the monasteries/abbeys realized the beauty of this devotion but unable to read or memorize the lengthy Psalms, the people were unable to adapt this form of prayer for their use. It was suggested that the people might substitute 150 Our Fathers in place of the Psalms. At first, pebbles were carried in a pouch to count the 150 Our Fathers; later ropes with 150 or 50 (1/3 of 150) knots were used. Eventually (by the 12th century) strings with 50 small pieces of wood were used and they were called Pater Nosters or Pater Noster cords.}}</ref> To count these repetitions, they used beads strung upon a cord and this set of prayer beads became commonly known as a {{lang|la|pater noster}}, which is the Latin for 'Our Father'.
In some houses, [[lay brother]]s who did not understand Latin or who were illiterate were required to say the [[Lord's Prayer]] (also referred to the "Our Father") a certain number of times each day while meditating on the Mysteries of the Incarnation of [[Christ]]. [[Laity|Lay people]] adopted this practice as a form of popular [[Christian worship|worship]].<ref name=Solitaries/> In the eighth century the penitentials, or rule books pertaining to penitents, prescribed various penances of 20, 50, or more, paters. The strings of beads, with the aid of which such penances were accurately said, gradually came to be known as paternosters.<ref name=Volz>[http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/02361c.htm Volz, John. "Use of Beads at Prayers." The Catholic Encyclopedia] Vol. 2. New York: Robert Appleton Company, 1907. 2 May 2021 {{PD-notice}}</ref> The paternoster could be of various lengths, but was often made up of 5 "decades" of 10 beads, which when performed three times made up 150 prayers.
Today, some [[Anglican religious orders]], such as the Solitaries of DeKoven, make and promulgate the Pater Noster Cord, in addition to other [[Anglican devotions|devotions]] such as the [[Anglican Rosary]], as a part of Christian spiritual life.<ref name=Solitaries/>
== Ecumenical Miracle Rosary ==
The [[Ecumenical Miracle Rosary]] is prayed on the Roman Catholic rosary and is based upon the [[miracles of Jesus]].<ref name=Paulist1>{{cite web|url=http://paulist.org/ecumenism/rosary-all-christians|title=A Rosary for All Christians?|year=2012|publisher=[[Paulist Fathers]]|accessdate=5 November 2012|author=Dennis Di Mauro|quote=I call the rosary "ecumenical", since the prayers and "miracles" are either directly from the Bible or are derived from the Bible.

Help me to serve my family and everyone else I meet today." Where Catholics would say a Glory Be, Di Mauro has inserted a prayer called "The Great Commission": "Oh my lord, I know that you are always with me. Help me to obey your commandments and lead me to share my faith with others, so that they may know and love you." Upon returning to the medal at the end of the rosary, Di Mauro suggests reciting the Jesus Prayer: "Lord, Jesus Christ, have mercy on me, a sinner."}}</ref>
==Chotki==
While use of the Roman Catholic rosary has gradually been adopted by many [[Eastern Catholic]]s, many Eastern Catholic churches have undertaken a campaign of [[Liturgical latinisation|liturgical de-Latinization]], removing imported devotions and practices (such as the rosary) that have obscured and replaced traditional and authentic devotions and practices of the Eastern Catholic Churches.{{Citation needed|date=October 2008}} Subsequently, the most common prayer used in the [[Eastern Christian]] Churches ([[Eastern Orthodox]] and [[Eastern Catholic]]) is the [[Jesus Prayer]], which makes use of the more ancient [[prayer rope]] (chotki), a knotted rope (rather than beads) joined together with a knotted cross. The prayer rope is not as fixed in form as the Western rosary (it may have 10, 33, 50, 100, or 500 knots on it), and it normally makes use of beads only as dividers between sections. The Eastern prayer rope is often divided into decades, but it may also be divided into sections of 25 or some other number, or not divided at all.
==Anglican Rosary==
[[File:Anglican Prayer Beads.jpg|thumb|200px|Anglican prayer beads]]
Among [[High church|High Church]] [[Anglicanism|Anglicans]], [[Anglican prayer beads]] are sometimes used. This set is also known as the "Anglican Rosary"<ref>[http://www.episcopalian.org/grace/anglican_rosary.htm episcopalian.org]</ref> or as "Christian prayer beads", the latter term arising from the popularity this set has gained among Christians of various other traditions. Anglican bead sets contain 28 beads in groups of seven called "weeks", with an additional large bead before each. In total, there are 33 beads representing the years of Jesus' life on Earth. A number of Anglicans use the [[Jesus Prayer]], just like [[Eastern Christians]], but there are no church-appointed prayers or meditations in the Anglican practice. Some [[Anglo-Catholics]] use the traditional [[Dominican rosary]].

{{Rosary}}
'''Rosary-based prayers''' are [[Christian prayer]]s recited on a set of [[rosary|rosary beads]], among other cords. These prayers recite specific word sequences on the beads that make up the different sections. They may be directed to [[Jesus Christ]], the [[Virgin Mary]] or [[God the Father]].
== Physical structure of a rosary ==
[[File:Rosary_2006-01-16.jpg|thumb|right|A [[rosary]] made of wooden beads.]]
The most common form of rosary is the [[Dominican rosary]]. This is made up of a total of 59 beads, or sometimes knots, and a crucifix, perhaps with a small medallion. The main loop comprises 50 beads (often called [[Hail Mary]] beads and named for the prayer they are used to count) arranged as five groups of 10 closely spaced beads called decades. In between most of these decades and separated by a greater distance is a single bead (called an [[Lord's Prayer|Our Father]] bead) which may be larger or otherwise distinctive. Attached between one pair of decades is a short string of five beads: three of them closely spaced, two others separated by a larger distance. At the bottom of this short string is a cross or a crucifix. This short string may attach to the main loop by a centrepiece in the form of a medallion bearing the image of a saint, a Sacred Heart, or some other symbol.
Many other rosaries follow this basic plan, often with one or two extra decades and a like number of single beads being added and perhaps a different number of beads on the pendant string. Small rosaries may comprise a single decade on the loop while retaining five beads and a cross on the pendant. Large Dominican rosaries may have 169 beads to allow the recitation of 150 Hail Mary prayers without having to pass around the loop multiple times (the remaining 19 beads are fourteen Our Father beads on the loop with 5 beads on the pendant).

=== Bridgettine Crown ===
The rosary as prayed by the [[Bridgettine]] and [[Discalced Carmelites]] orders is a loop containing six decades and five single beads, together with a short string of beads leading to the crucifix.<ref name="Volz" /><ref>[https://www.sistersofcarmel.com/brigittine-crown-chaplet/ "Brigittine Crown", Sisters of Carmel, Carmelite Monastery of the Sacred Hearts]</ref> It was propagated by [[Bridget of Sweden]]. It adds one additional mystery to each of the three traditional sets of Dominican mysteries: the [[Immaculate Conception]] is added as the sixth Joyful Mystery, Christ's body being removed from the cross is the sixth Sorrowful Mystery, the Virgin Mary being matron of the Bridgettine order is the sixth Glorious Mystery. An example of the Bridgettine rosary may be seen depicted on the statue of the Crowned Virgin in the [[Sanctuary of Our Lady of Lourdes]].{{cn|date=May 2021}}
=== Carthusian Rosary ===
The Carthusian Rosary or Life of Christ Rosary developed by [[Dominic of Prussia]] comprises fifty recitations of Hail Mary each interpolated with a phrase stating a Christological or Mariological mystery. For example, "Hail Mary, full of grace, The Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women, And blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus, {{em|whose feet were washed with Mary Magdalene's tears, dried with her hair, anointed with her perfume}}. Holy Mary, Mother of God, Pray for us sinners, Now and at the hour of our death. Amen." (Italic or oblique section indicating the inserted mystery.) At the time Dominic lived, the Hail Mary comprised only the first half of today's longer prayer—just "Hail Mary..." to "... thy womb, Jesus"—so he was adding his phrase to the end of the prayer.<ref name=":0">{{Cite web |title=How do you recite the Carthusian Rosary? |url=https://ihmhermitage.tripod.com/id16.html |access-date=2023-10-21 |website=ihmhermitage.tripod.com}}</ref><ref name=":1">{{Cite web |title=Carthusian Rosary: University of Dayton, Ohio |url=https://udayton.edu/imri/mary/c/carthusian-rosary.php |access-date=2023-10-21 |website=udayton.edu}}</ref>
There are fifty such phrases commended by Dominic and it acquired its alternative name as these cover the life of Jesus more completely than other rosaries. While using all fifty meditative phrases is traditional, the rosary is intended to be contemplative, invites silence for the contemplation, and quality is emphasised over quantity with no need to recite fifty prayers let alone needing to recite all fifty meditations.<ref name=":0" />
The Carthusian Rosary is seen as an ancestor to the Dominican Rosary.<ref name=":1" />
=== Chaplet of the Divine Mercy ===
{{main article|Chaplet of the Divine Mercy}}
The Chaplet of the Divine Mercy was introduced and propagated by [[Faustina Kowalska]], a Polish religious sister of the [[Congregation of the Sisters of Our Lady of Mercy]]. According to her diary (''Diary 474-476)'', on 13 and 14 September 1935, this chaplet was dictated to her directly by Jesus Christ during visions when she was at the convent of [[Vilnius|Wilno]] (Vilnius).<ref>{{Cite web |title=The Chaplet of the Divine Mercy {{!}} EWTN |url=https://www.ewtn.com/catholicism/devotions/chaplet-of-the-divine-mercy-387 |access-date=2024-08-29 |website=EWTN Global Catholic Television Network |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=CNA |title=Divine Mercy Chaplet |url=https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/resource/55316/divine-mercy-chaplet |access-date=2024-08-29 |website=Catholic News Agency |language=en}}</ref> Faustina also said that Jesus granted several promises to the recitation of this chaplet.<ref name=":2">{{Cite web |title=Chaplet of the Divine Mercy {{!}} Mercy - Saint Faustina - Diary - Jesus, I trust in You - Congregation |url=https://www.saint-faustina.org/chaplet-of-the-divine-mercy/?wide=true#more-154 |access-date=2024-08-29 |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Chaplet of Divine Mercy {{!}} EWTN |url=https://www.ewtn.com/catholicism/devotions/chaplet-13364 |access-date=2024-08-29 |website=EWTN Global Catholic Television Network |language=en}}</ref>
The main focus of this prayer is to implore [[God the Father]]'s mercy for the person praying and for the whole world, through the merits of the [[Passion of Jesus|Passion of Christ]]. This prayer of God's mercy is centered on three themes: to obtain mercy, to trust in Christ's mercy, and to show mercy to others. The chaplet is prayed on ordinary rosary but according to the congregation, the chaplet should not be prayed the same way as an ordinary rosary: the decades should not be interspersed with meditations, intentions or any other prayers. Any intentions or texts are to be meditated upon at the beginning so that the entire prayer is said the way Jesus dictated it.<ref name=":2" />
=== Chaplet of the Immaculate Heart of Mary ===
The Rosary of Mary's Immaculate Heart is recited using an ordinary rosary. <ref>[https://udayton.edu/imri/mary/c/chaplets-various-kinds.php#anchor3 Roten, S.M., Johann. "Chaplets: Various Kinds", Marian Library, University of Dayton]</ref>
=== Chaplet of the Seven Sorrows ===
{{main article|Chaplet of the Seven Sorrows}}
The Chaplet of the Seven Sorrows, which is also called the Rosary of the Seven Sorrows, the Rosary of the Seven Swords or the Servite Rosary, is a chaplet that originated with the [[Servite Order]] and is a form of devotion to the [[Our Lady of Sorrows#Seven Sorrows of Mary|Seven Dolours of Mary]] and [[Our Lady of Sorrows]].
In 1233, seven members of a Florentine Confraternity devoted to the Mother of God founded the [[Servite Order]]. According to tradition, the Virgin Mary appeared to the young men and exhorted them to devote themselves to her service. They retired on [[Monte Senario]] near Florence, where they experienced another vision of Mary. There they formed a new Order called the Servants of Mary, or [[Servites]]. In 1239, they took up the sorrows of Mary standing under the Cross, known as Our Lady of Sorrows, as the principal devotion of their order.<ref>{{Cite web |title=CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Feasts of the Seven Sorrows of the Blessed Virgin Mary |url=https://www.newadvent.org/cathen/14151b.htm |access-date=2024-09-14 |website=www.newadvent.org}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2017-09-15 |title=Our Lady’s Seven Sorrows, Seven Promises, and Fatima’s Connection |url=https://www.ncregister.com/blog/our-lady-s-seven-sorrows-seven-promises-and-fatima-s-connection |access-date=2024-09-14 |website=NCR |language=en}}</ref> The Servites developed the three most common devotions to Our Lady's Sorrows, one of which is the Rosary of the Seven Sorrows.
During the 18th century, a set of introductory prayers for the Servite Rosary was written by [[Alphonsus Liguori]] in his book ''[[The Glories of Mary]]''.<ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=7uwCAAAAQAAJ&pg=PA481&dq=five+decades+slowly+fifteen+hurry+little#PPA611,M1 Liguori, Alphonsus. ''The Glories of Mary''. (translated from Italian) London: Redemptorist Fathers, St. Mary's. (1852) pp. 611-614]</ref>
Between 1981 and 1989, during the [[Marian apparition|Marian apparitions]] of [[Our Lady of Kibeho]] in [[Kibeho]], Rwanda, the Virgin Mary reportedly instructed one of the three recognized seers, Marie-Claire Mukangango, to spread the devotion to the Seven Sorrows Rosary. She also explained to her the graces associated with reciting the rosary.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2021-11-25 |title=Our Lady of Kibeho Calls for the Seven Sorrows Rosary |url=https://www.ncregister.com/blog/our-lady-of-kibeho-calls-for-the-seven-sorrows-rosary |access-date=2024-09-14 |website=NCR |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Holy Rosary - Sanctuary Our Lady of Kibeho |url=http://kibeho-sanctuary.com/en/liturgy/holy-rosary.html |access-date=2024-09-14 |website=kibeho-sanctuary.com}}</ref>
=== Dominican Rosary ===
{{main article|Rosary}}
The best known example of a rosary-based prayer is the Dominican Rosary which is ubiquitously called the rosary. In traditional form it involves contemplation on fifteen rosary mysteries (as three sets of five mysteries each), while [[Lord's Prayer|Our Father]], [[Hail Mary]] and [[Gloria Patri|Glory be to the Father]] prayers are recited.<ref>[http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/13184b.htm Thurston, Herbert, and Andrew Shipman. "The Rosary." The Catholic Encyclopedia] Vol. 13. New York: Robert Appleton Company, 1912. {{PD-notice}}</ref> Commonly, just one set of mysteries, out of three or four sets, is prayed.
This rosary prayer goes back several centuries and there are differing views among experts on its exact history.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.ewtn.com/library/ANSWERS/ROSARYHS.htm |title=History of the Rosary |first=Fr. William |last=Saunders | publisher=ewtn.com}}</ref> In the 16th century, [[Pope Pius V]] established the current form of the original 15 mysteries for this rosary and they remained so until the 20th century.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.ewtn.com/library/PAPALDOC/P5CONSUE.HTM|title=Consueverunt Romani Pope Pius V|accessdate=2007-02-10}}</ref> [[Pope John Paul II]] proposed an additional set of five mysteries known as the "Luminous" mysteries as a manner of reflecting on Christ's life during his public ministry. Some choose to pray the Luminous mysteries or retain the "Psalter of Our Lady" and pray the 15 original mysteries.
Further prayers specified in the [[Roman Catholic]] tradition include: the [[Fátima prayers]], the [[Litany of the Blessed Virgin Mary]] and the {{lang|la|[[Memorare]]}} of [[Bernard of Clairvaux]].<ref>{{cite web | url = http://www.theholyrosary.org/rosaryprayers | title = Additional prayers to the Holy Rosary | access-date = Sep 4, 2018 | language = en, de, es, fr, it, pt | website = thehoyrosary.org }}</ref>
=== Franciscan Crown ===
{{main article|Franciscan Crown}}
In 1263, Bonaventure, Minister General of the Order, encouraged liturgical devotion honoring the mystery of the [[Visitation (Christian)|Visitation]]. The [[Franciscan]] rosary, or as it is properly called, the Franciscan Crown and also known as the Rosary of the Seven Joys of Mary, developed in early part of the 15th century, and was officially established in 1422. The Franciscan Crown consists of seven decades of Hail Mary prayers, each preceded by an Our Father and followed by a Glory Be, and completed by two more Hail Marys after the 7th decade to complete the number 72 which is thought to be the age of Mary at the time of her [[Assumption of Mary|Assumption]]. The Crown recalls the [[Seven Joys of the Virgin|Seven Joys of Mary]] and how she responded to the grace of God in her life. These Seven Joys overlap with the Joyful and Glorious Mysteries of the Dominican Rosary. In addition to developing this Marian devotion, the Franciscans are credited with adding the final words to the Hail Mary: "Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners [from the writings of [[Bernardino of Siena]]] now and at the hour of our death [from the writings of the [[Servite]] Fathers and the [[Roman Breviary]]]."
=== Rosary of the Holy Wounds ===
{{main article|Rosary of the Holy Wounds}}
The Rosary of the Holy Wounds was introduced at the beginning of the 20th century by [[Marie Martha Chambon|Sister Mary Martha Chambon]], a [[Roman Catholic]] [[nun]] of the Monastery of the [[Order of the Visitation of Holy Mary]] in [[Chambéry]], France.
This rosary specifically meditates on the wounds of [[Jesus Christ]] as an [[Act of reparation|Act of Reparation]] for the sins of the world. This rosary also focuses on prayers for souls in [[purgatory]]. [[Marie Martha Chambon|Sister Mary Martha]] attributed the following purpose for the rosary to Jesus: "you must not forget{{nbsp}}[...] the souls in Purgatory, as there are but few who think of their relief{{nbsp}}[...] The Holy Wounds are the treasure of treasures for the souls in Purgatory."<ref>{{cite web |title=Legionnaires Praying for the Clergy |url=http://www.lpca.us/five_sacred_wounds.htm |publisher=lpca.us}}</ref><ref>{{cite book |last=Freze |first=Michael |url=https://archive.org/details/voicesvisionsapp00frez |title=Voices, Visions, and Apparitions |publisher=OSV Publishing |year=1993 |isbn=087973454X |url-access=registration}}</ref><ref>G.

=== St. Anthony's Rosary ===
The [[Irish people]] (specifically in the [[Gaeltacht]] areas) and their descendants in the global [[Irish diaspora]] have a tradition of saying 13 Aves rather than ten, in honour of [[Anthony of Padua]], whose feast day is 13 June. Also called the St. Anthony Chaplet, its prayers are accompanied by a poem called the Miraculous Responsory or {{lang|la|si quaeris}}, written by [[Bonaventure]].<ref>[https://www.stanthony.org/how-to-pray-the-chaplet-of-st-anthony-of-padua/ "How to Pray the Chaplet of St. Anthony of Padua", National Shrine of St. Anthony, Mt. Airy, Cincinnati]</ref>
=== Trinitarian Rosary ===
The term "Trinitarian Rosary" is used for at least two different rosaries or chaplets.
==== Trisagion rosary of the Trinitarian Order ====
First, it can refer to the special rosary or chaplet used by the [[Trinitarian Order]] (the Order of the Most Holy Trinity for the Redemption of Captives), which was founded in France in 1198. From an early date, the Trinitarians have used a form of prayer based on the [[Trisagion]] (sometimes ''Trisagium'' or ''Triagion'', from the Greek 'thrice' + 'holy'). This is a Byzantine prayer in praise of the Trinity: its simplest form is "Holy God, Holy Strong One, Holy Immortal One, have mercy on us."<ref name="Agios O Theos">{{cite web |title=Agios O Theos |url=http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/01211b.htm}}</ref>
The Trisagion rosary (usually called a chaplet) has three groups of nine beads. In reciting the chaplet, each group is preceded by the Trisagion and the Pater Noster. A special prayer is recited on each of the nine beads: "To you be praise, glory, and thanksgiving for ever, blessed Trinity. Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God of power and might; heaven and earth are full of your glory." Each group of nine prayers is followed by a Gloria Patri ("Glory be to the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit..."), and the whole ends with a closing prayer.<ref>{{cite web |title=Chaplet of the Holy Trinity |url=http://avemariascircle.com/zencart/Chapletpix/HolyTrinity.htm}}</ref>
As with other rosaries that are special to a particular religious Order, its history is rather cloudy. The first question is how long the Trinitarians have used the Trisagion and its associated prayers. The prayers themselves are quite old, and may well have come to the Trinitarians from Byzantium through their connections in the Middle East. The Trisagion itself can be traced at least as far back as the Council of Chalcedon (451 AD) and perhaps further.<ref name="Agios O Theos" /> The use of these particular prayers by the Trinitarians may very well date back to the beginnings of the Order.
A separate question is when beads began to be used to count these prayers. Reciting a certain number of prayers does not necessarily imply the presence of beads—prayers can be counted on one's fingers, by moving a peg from one hole to another, and so forth. It is possible that Trisagion beads were first seen in the 14th or 15th century—when other rosaries became popular, suggesting the concept of using beads as counters.<!--
Look into St. Micheal chaplet-->
==== Other Trinitarian rosaries ====
Secondly, the term ''Trinitarian rosary'' can refer to any set of Christian prayer beads on which prayers to the Holy Trinity (Father, Son and Holy Spirit) are recited.
A trinitarian rosary of this type can comprise the same basic form as the traditional Marian rosary with 5 decades of 10 beads and introductory prayers, et cetera. Or such prayers may be recited with the Anglican or other variants of the beads.
There are several of these Trinitarian rosaries, all of relatively recent origin. One, for instance, uses the prayer: "Almighty God, Almighty God, Heavenly King, You are the Lord! Blessed art thou in heaven, and blessed is thy sacred word! Holy Jesus, eternally begotten son of God, send your Holy Spirit upon us and kindle in our hearts the fire of your divine love!".
== Paternoster beads ==
{{Main|Paternoster beads}}
In [[monastic]] houses, monks were expected to pray the [[Liturgy of the Hours|Divine Office]] daily in [[Latin language|Latin]], the liturgical language of the [[Western Christian Church]]. [[Christian monastics]], in addition to clergymen, "recited or chanted the 150 [[Psalms]] as a major source of hourly worship."<ref name=Solitaries>{{cite web|url=http://www.solitariesofdekoven.org/how_to_use.html#cords|title=Anglican Prayer Beads|year=2015|publisher=Solitaries of DeKoven|language=English|accessdate=7 June 2015|location=[[Santa Anna, Texas|Santa Anna]]|quote=The Pater Noster cord originated in Ireland in the 8th Century...In the [[British Isles]], people living near the monasteries/abbeys realized the beauty of this devotion but unable to read or memorize the lengthy Psalms, the people were unable to adapt this form of prayer for their use. It was suggested that the people might substitute 150 Our Fathers in place of the Psalms. At first, pebbles were carried in a pouch to count the 150 Our Fathers; later ropes with 150 or 50 (1/3 of 150) knots were used. Eventually (by the 12th century) strings with 50 small pieces of wood were used and they were called Pater Nosters or Pater Noster cords.}}</ref> To count these repetitions, they used beads strung upon a cord and this set of prayer beads became commonly known as a {{lang|la|pater noster}}, which is the Latin for 'Our Father'.
In some houses, [[lay brother]]s who did not understand Latin or who were illiterate were required to say the [[Lord's Prayer]] (also referred to the "Our Father") a certain number of times each day while meditating on the Mysteries of the Incarnation of [[Christ]]. [[Laity|Lay people]] adopted this practice as a form of popular [[Christian worship|worship]].<ref name=Solitaries/> In the eighth century the penitentials, or rule books pertaining to penitents, prescribed various penances of 20, 50, or more, paters. The strings of beads, with the aid of which such penances were accurately said, gradually came to be known as paternosters.<ref name=Volz>[http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/02361c.htm Volz, John. "Use of Beads at Prayers." The Catholic Encyclopedia] Vol. 2. New York: Robert Appleton Company, 1907. 2 May 2021 {{PD-notice}}</ref> The paternoster could be of various lengths, but was often made up of 5 "decades" of 10 beads, which when performed three times made up 150 prayers.
Today, some [[Anglican religious orders]], such as the Solitaries of DeKoven, make and promulgate the Pater Noster Cord, in addition to other [[Anglican devotions|devotions]] such as the [[Anglican Rosary]], as a part of Christian spiritual life.<ref name=Solitaries/>
== Ecumenical Miracle Rosary ==
The [[Ecumenical Miracle Rosary]] is prayed on the Roman Catholic rosary and is based upon the [[miracles of Jesus]].<ref name=Paulist1>{{cite web|url=http://paulist.org/ecumenism/rosary-all-christians|title=A Rosary for All Christians?|year=2012|publisher=[[Paulist Fathers]]|accessdate=5 November 2012|author=Dennis Di Mauro|quote=I call the rosary "ecumenical", since the prayers and "miracles" are either directly from the Bible or are derived from the Bible.

Help me to serve my family and everyone else I meet today." Where Catholics would say a Glory Be, Di Mauro has inserted a prayer called "The Great Commission": "Oh my lord, I know that you are always with me. Help me to obey your commandments and lead me to share my faith with others, so that they may know and love you." Upon returning to the medal at the end of the rosary, Di Mauro suggests reciting the Jesus Prayer: "Lord, Jesus Christ, have mercy on me, a sinner."}}</ref>
==Chotki==
While use of the Roman Catholic rosary has gradually been adopted by many [[Eastern Catholic]]s, many Eastern Catholic churches have undertaken a campaign of [[Liturgical latinisation|liturgical de-Latinization]], removing imported devotions and practices (such as the rosary) that have obscured and replaced traditional and authentic devotions and practices of the Eastern Catholic Churches.{{Citation needed|date=October 2008}} Subsequently, the most common prayer used in the [[Eastern Christian]] Churches ([[Eastern Orthodox]] and [[Eastern Catholic]]) is the [[Jesus Prayer]], which makes use of the more ancient [[prayer rope]] (chotki), a knotted rope (rather than beads) joined together with a knotted cross. The prayer rope is not as fixed in form as the Western rosary (it may have 10, 33, 50, 100, or 500 knots on it), and it normally makes use of beads only as dividers between sections. The Eastern prayer rope is often divided into decades, but it may also be divided into sections of 25 or some other number, or not divided at all.
==Anglican Rosary==
[[File:Anglican Prayer Beads.jpg|thumb|200px|Anglican prayer beads]]
Among [[High church|High Church]] [[Anglicanism|Anglicans]], [[Anglican prayer beads]] are sometimes used. This set is also known as the "Anglican Rosary"<ref>[http://www.episcopalian.org/grace/anglican_rosary.htm episcopalian.org]</ref> or as "Christian prayer beads", the latter term arising from the popularity this set has gained among Christians of various other traditions. Anglican bead sets contain 28 beads in groups of seven called "weeks", with an additional large bead before each. In total, there are 33 beads representing the years of Jesus' life on Earth. A number of Anglicans use the [[Jesus Prayer]], just like [[Eastern Christians]], but there are no church-appointed prayers or meditations in the Anglican practice. Some [[Anglo-Catholics]] use the traditional [[Dominican rosary]].

[[File:Rosary_2006-01-16.jpg|thumb|right|A [[rosary]] made of wooden beads.]]
-The most common form of rosary is the [[Dominican rosary]]. This is made up of a total of 59 beads, or sometimes knots, and a crucifix, perhaps with a small medallion. The main loop comprises 50 beads (often called [[Hail Mary]] beads and named for the prayer they are used to count) arranged as five groups of 10 closely spaced beads called decades. In between most of these decades and separated by a greater distance is a single bead (called an [[Lord's Prayer|Our Father]] bead) which may be larger or otherwise distinctive. Attached between one pair of decades is a short string of five beads three of them closely spaced, two others separated by a larger distance. At the bottom of this short string is a cross or a crucifix. This short string may attach to the main loop by a centrepiece in the form of a medallion bearing the image of a saint, a Sacred Heart, or some other symbol.

Many other rosaries follow this basic plan, often with one or two extra decades and a like number of single beads being added and perhaps a different number of beads on the pendant string. Small rosaries may comprise a single decade on the loop while retaining five beads and a cross on the pendant. Large Dominican rosaries may have 169 beads to allow the recitation of 150 Hail Mary prayers without having to pass around the loop multiple times (the remaining 19 beads are fourteen Our Father beads on the loop with 5 beads on the pendant).
