Sorry for the stupid question, but I really don’t know the right decision. This is my first for real novena-as in I will complete it (only tried once before). I started it on a whim Sunday morning at 2 AM after the idea wouldn’t go away. Tonight, before bed (still Sunday) do I continue with day 2, and if so do I do the Glorious mystery again? Or do I do the Rosary tonight and continue with day 2 of the novena tomorrow? Thanks for any guidance.
 
Hi Humbly Hopeful

When I pray Novenas, I go one per day, so if you’ve already prayed for Sunday (2am) then I don’t think you need to do it again, but if you feel like it, I don’t think it would hurt. Just remember to pray the rosary again on Monday. If you do pray again today, it is still the glorious mysteries, which are said on Sundays throughout the year.

Joyful mysteries are said on the Sundays of Advent and the Sundays from Epiphany until Lent.

Sorrowful mysteries are said on the Sundays from Ash Wednesday till Easter Sunday I believe.

Are you doing a specific novena or just nine days of rosaries for a reason?

There’s the 54 day rosary novena that you can look up online. You may think its too much right now and I get that totally.

Our Lady will always hear our intentions and present them to Her Son. You could technically start the novena when praying tonight but what mysteries you pray don’t matter as long as the prayers are devout and for the right intentions.

God bless!
 
I am doing a specific novena to Our Lady Undoer of Knots. I have seen a few posts about longer novenas recently and may try one later. I was putting off doing this one until the idea kept me awake; I am sure I will try a longer one later. Thank you for letting me know that the prayers don’t have to be perfect. God Bless.
