What is a Rosary
The word rosary comes from Latin and means a garland of roses, the rose being
one of the flowers used to symbolize the Virgin Mary. If you were to ask what
object is most emblematic of Catholics, people would probably say: 'The Rosary,
of course.'
For some time the rosary fell into relative disuse, but in recent years the
rosary has made a comeback, and not just among Catholics. Many Protestants now
say the rosary, recognizing it as a truly biblical form of prayer. All the
prayers that comprise the rosary come mainly from the Bible.
The rosary is a devotion in honor of the Virgin Mary. It consists of number of
specific prayers. First are the introductory prayers: one Apostles’ Creed
(Credo), one Our Father (the Pater Noster or the Lord’s Prayer), and three Hail
Mary’s (Ave’s), one Glory Be (Gloria Patri).
The Rosary is a talk to the Blessed Virgin Mary about the life of her son, Jesus,
and that of her own. The Rosary beads were given by the Blessed Virgin Mary to
St. Dominic in 1214.
The word Rosary has two main meanings: the physical object, and the prayer for
which this physical object is used as a guide. You don't need the physical
object to pray the Rosary, but the beads will help you keep track of where you
are as you pray. In addition, the Rosary is a sacred object, the presence of
which in your home, pocket or now wallet is, in a certain sense, a constant
prayer offered to God, through Mary.
According to the New Catholic Encyclopedia, “Rosarium (a rose garden) [was] a
common term to designate a collection of similar material. In preempting this
term, Mary’s clients applied the rose, the symbol of joy, to Mary. The name was
later transferred to the recitation of 50 Hail Marys commemorating Mary’s joys.
