so in the Divine Office, how often do you pray the antiphons? just once at the beginning and end of the Psalm/ Canticle? or more than that? God bless
 
Well you have to say it at the start but the end is optional if you say the inviatory which is only on some hours.👍
 
Generally, you say the antiphon at the beginning, and saying it at the end is optional, except for the Benedictus(Cantical of Zacharia) and the Magnificat(cantilcal of the Blessed Mother), in which case you say it at the beginning and the end.

There’s a good introduction and explanation at the beginning of the Breviary.
