Days of Praying
The full rosary consists of praying the three traditional sets of mysteries (Joyful, Sorrowful and Glorious), with sometimes the addition of the Luminous mysteries. The complete rosary, with all 15 or 20 mysteries, can be prayed each day. Alternatively, one set can be prayed each day, traditionally in the order:
| Day of praying | With the Luminous Mysteries | Without the Luminous Mysteries |
|---|---|---|
| Sunday | The Glorious Mysteries |
Advent and Christmas: The Joyful Mysteries |
| Monday | The Joyful Mysteries | The Joyful Mysteries |
| Tuesday | The Sorrowful Mysteries | The Sorrowful Mysteries |
| Wednesday | The Glorious Mysteries | The Glorious Mysteries |
| Thursday | The Luminous Mysteries | The Joyful Mysteries |
| Friday | The Sorrowful Mysteries | The Sorrowful Mysteries |
| Saturday | The Joyful Mysteries | The Glorious Mysteries |

“I’ll sing you a new ballad, and I’ll warrant it first-rate,
Of the days of that old gentleman who had that old estate;
When they spent the public money at a bountiful old rate
On ev’ry mistress, pimp, and scamp, at ev’ry noble gate,
In the fine old English Tory times;”
—Charles Dickens (1812–1890)

Blight and famine, plague and earthquake, roaring deeps and fiery sands,
Clanging fights, and flaming towns, and sinking ships, and praying hands.”
