Meaning of a Black Rosary

The black rosary bead symbolizes grounding and protection. When black beads are used in combination with prayer (including the rosary) it calls for the feelings of self-control and resilience. Although considered to many to be a formal or elegant color it is used in a variety of rosaries from elaborate to simple. Black rosaries are popular with both men and women as depending on the bead size and shape as well as the type of centerpiece and crucifix, a black rosary is suitable for all.

  • How to Pray the Rosary 

    Praying the rosary involves a sequence of prayers and meditations. Begin with the Sign of the Cross, followed by the Apostles' Creed on the crucifix. Pray the Our Father on the first large bead, then three Hail Marys on the next three beads, reflecting on the virtues of faith, hope, and love. Continue to the first mystery, announced before each decade of ten Hail Marys, and conclude with the Glory Be. End your rosary with the Hail, Holy Queen and any additional prayers of devotion. This sacred practice connects you to the life of Christ and the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
