Good post.

IMO it is important to state the Mysteries of the Rosary one meditates on as you pray. They are all from scripture (exception could be assumption and crowning of Mary queen of Heaven, but that was Tradition before there ever was a Bible).

The Five Joyful Mysteries

The Annunciation: Humility
The Visitation: Charity
The Birth of Our Lord: Poverty, or detachment from the world
The Presentation of Our Lord: Purity of heart, obedience
The Finding of Our Lord in the Temple: Piety


The Five Sorrowful Mysteries

The Agony in the Garden: Contrition for our sins
The Scourging at the Pillar: Mortification of our senses
The Crowning with Thorns: Interior mortification
The Carrying of the Cross: Patience under crosses
The Crucifixion and Death of Our Lord: That we may die to ourselves

The Five Glorious Mysteries

The Resurrection: Conversion of heart
The Ascension: A desire for heaven
The Coming of the Holy Ghost: The Gifts of the Holy Ghost
The Assumption of our Blessed Mother into Heaven: Devotion to Mary
The Coronation of our Blessed Mother: Eternal happiness


The Five Luminous Mysteries
