When using a standard Catholic rosary to count the prayers, start with the crucifix. Then proceed one bead at a time towards the medal. After the medal, simply follow the beads around the rosary. Each single rose in these prayers indicates where move to a new
bead. Each 4"bouquet" of roses indicates where you repeat the prayer to finish the decade.

Before beginning, make the sign of the Pentagram in honor of the Lady as the Holy Rose by starting with the first two fingers touching the forehead (the "Third Eye") to the left breast, up to the right shoulder, over to the left shoulder, down to the right breast, and finally, back again to the forehead.

Before the Lady who loves us and calls us Her children, we acknowledge the fallible nature of our humanity: our limitations, our faults and our failures; because in this lifetime we are here for learning, for overcoming, and for making of our imperfections stepping-stones to wholeness. Therefore, we ask the all-glorious Queen of Heaven to baptize us in Her forgiving compassion and grace us with Her guidance, that we might become progressively conformed to the completed stature of spiritual maturity through the presence of Her empowerment from within. May the mercy of the Divine Mother cleanse us from all unrighteousness, that we might kneel before Her
Hallows, our faces full with radiance, and our hearts exuberant in the expectation of Her holiness.

most gracious Mother of eternal Wisdom,
most holy Bride of eternal Spirit,
most pure Consort of coeternal Majesty.
So Mote It Be.

Make the sign of the Pentagram again, and your current recitation of the Rosary is complete.

It should be noted that all of the prayers recited on the decades, as well as the All Praise prayer are adapted from the OAG Charge of the Goddess. The concluding prayer is taken from an altered translation of Ave Dei Patris Filia by The Rev. Ormus, O.A.G.
We encourage you to experiment with the recitation of this Rosary in honor of the Goddess, and let us know in what ways it begins to affect or deepen your personal devotions to our Lady.

One final note: The prayers of this Rosary should be memorized for maximum effect upon one's spirit during prayer. For those in the OAG this should not prove to be a major obstacle, since most of these have already been committed to memory through constant ritual usage.
