Praying 10 decades of the Rosary

[Nelka]

I can pray joyful and luminous or luminous and sorrowful or sorrowful and glorious but can’t imagine praying glorious then joyful or luminous and glorious etc.

Is it just me?

Does anyone else do it?

Do some people pray sorrowful twice for example?

Thanks.

If you want the traditional technique, pray the Joyful Mystery >Sorrowful Mystery > Glorious Mystery. Pray all 15 decades.

15 takes too long.

As the Rosary is a private devotion, you can pray it however you want. There are dozens of chaplets, variations, etc.

I can’t concentrate long enough to do all 15 or even 10. By decade 4 I really have to keep redirecting my thoughts.

I think it’s one of those things you get better at with practice.
