I am in the process of learning the prayers of the rosary because i grew up lutheran and didn’t memorize the Hail Mary prayer, but once I remember it how do I meditate at the same time, and is there a site tha explains/ helps with the mediation of the mysteries? I also don’t want to pray the Lumnious, I want to do it traditionally, what are the days of prayer what mystery?
Thanks in advance.
 
Hello dear new (brother,sister??) in faith,
You can find many websites about meditations of the rosary, you contemplate Jesus´life thru Mary´s eyes thru each mystery.
However, the rosary does not help you contemplate Our Lord´s life, but also your very own life, your joys and sorrows. Here´s a few examples:

Today is Monday, day of Joyful Mysterys…first one being the announciation, think of the joy in Our Lady´s heart when she learned she had been chosen to be the mother of Our Lord…now think of the day when u decided to convert, think of that day or instant qhen u felt God calling you into the Catholic Church…think of all the doubts, worries and hesitations that you probably went thru…think of everything Our Lady went thru after that moment…Saint Joseph was about to leave her when he found out she was with child. It was a moment of great happiness the announciation, but yet it was followed by great many difficulties.

You can also think of any joy or grace youv been granted and relate with Mary, or if you are feeling sad, then ask for joy inyour heart…the rosary is a great instrument of healing. You think and meditate after thinking about the mystery you are about to say, then you start with the Hail Mary´s…when starting the second mystery you could–for example-- ask Our Lady to come and visit your heart, and your home, to bring peace into the minds of hearts of the ones you love…just like she did when se went to visit her cousin Elizabeth…and then you begin with the Hail Marys again.

Everyone has got their own particular way of meditation, you can just meditate on the life of our Lord or reflect on your own, you can confide your fears, joys and sorrows to the rosary. I hope this helps you out a bit. Cheers.

Monday-Saturday: Joyful Mysteries
Tuesday-Friday: Sorrowful Mysteries
Sunday-Wednesday: Glorious Mysteries
Thursday -Mysteries of Light

God bless you 🙂

P.S.

Dont try to meditate and say the Hail Mary´s at the same time, im sure some folk can manage to do that, but its not easy to meditate and say the Hail Mary simultaneously. Meditate the mystery first, say the Hail Mary´s after. Just a wee pointer. 🙂
Cheers

Godbless
 
When I pray the Rosary I like to remember verses that go with the mystery before i start the prayers and then meditate silently while saying the prayers verbally. I try to remember as much as i can of the mystery when meditating and try to visualize it. It may be a little tricky at first but you’ll get it down and you will draw closer to our lord through the Blessed Mother. The Holy Spirit will guide you in your meditation, sometimes something that never really stood out will just leap at you but even if it doesn’t you will never go wrong in meditating on the Gospel of our Lord. God Bless You and guide you.
