What’s the difference between a “prayer” and a “novana”?
When you say the rosary can you choose which mystery to meditate on, or do you have to go by the assigned day?
 
A novena means 9 of something, usually prayers for 9 days, but other times it is prayers 9 times a day, or prayers on 9 first mondays. You get the point.

It comes from the 9 days of prayer that Mary and the Apostles performed while they were waiting between the Ascension of Jesus and the arrival of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost.
