What Are the Mysteries of the Rosary?

The Mysteries of the Rosary are meditations on the life of Our Lord and Our Lady. Each decade of the Rosary leads us deeper into a moment of salvation history. The Catholic Church has grouped these events into four sets:

  • The Joyful Mysteries – The early life of Jesus, marked by hope and hidden glory.
  • The Sorrowful Mysteries – Christ’s Passion, revealing the depth of His love.
  • The Glorious Mysteries – The victory of the Resurrection and Mary’s crowning.
  • The Luminous Mysteries – Christ’s public ministry, full of light and revelation.

These mysteries are not just stories. They are truths that shape the soul and draw us closer to Christ through Mary.

New to the beads? Our guide on how to pray the Rosary walks you through every step, and the full Rosary Guide gathers the mysteries, PDFs, and daily reflections in one place.
