A Saint Michaels Jewelry exclusive

The 6-decade Rosary consists of six groups, or decades, each made up of:

• One Our Father (the Lord’s Prayer)

• Ten Hail Marys

• One Glory Be (Doxology)

Origin and Purpose

The 6-decade Rosary is primarily associated with St. Bridget of Sweden and her devotion to the Passion of Christ. It reflects a specific spiritual tradition, particularly within the Brigittine Order, founded by St. Bridget in the 14th century. The additional decade sets it apart from the more common Dominican Rosary, emphasizing unique aspects of Christ’s life and Mary’s role in salvation history.

Mysteries of the 6-Decade Rosary

While there is no universally prescribed set of mysteries for this Rosary, it is often used to meditate on themes of Christ’s Passion and the Sorrows of Mary. In some traditions, the sixth decade highlights the Blessed Virgin Mary’s Assumption or Coronation.

Structure of Prayer

1. Begin with the Sign of the Cross and the Apostles’ Creed.

2. Pray one Our Father, three Hail Marys, and one Glory Be.

3. Announce the first mystery, then pray one Our Father.

4. Pray ten Hail Marys while meditating on the mystery.

5. Conclude the decade with one Glory Be and the optional Fatima Prayer.

6. Repeat for all six decades.

7. End with the Hail, Holy Queen and final prayers.
