(a) Filianic Rosary
For your inspiration, the current version of the rosary prayers I use - Filianic at heart, heavily based on the Catholic ones, quite obviously, with minor adjustments, which happens to work for my practice. In many cases, the wording remained intact due to private philosophical understanding. I hope this example proves useful for those seeking to include this beautiful practice.
In the name of the Source, and the Mother, and the Rose Child. Amen.
Our Mother, who art in Heaven, hallowed be Thy Name. Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us today our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Love is with Thee. Blessed art Thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of Thy womb. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us now and in the hour of our death. Amen.
As a rule, I finish with a Hail Holy Queen intact:
Hail, Holy Queen, Mother of Mercy, our life, our sweetness and our hope. To you do we cry, poor banished children of Eve. To you do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this valley of tears Turn then, most gracious advocate, your eyes of mercy toward us, and after this exile show unto us the blessed fruit of thy womb. O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary.
Come to the Mother as you are, and She shall guide you in Her ways🥀
I am here to rant about Yoru and Strawb. I took a break to finish the last comm I had for now ^.^ ! ---------------------- YORU
He's a demon Magii and he resides in Hells Valley. He hardly goes to the Overworld, mostly staying in his area. He's not a sociable guy at all whatsoever. His personality is not the best. He's brutal socially and will bluntly tell you if he doesn't like you, which is usually the case. He hates a lot of things. He's very chill and laid back until he gets taunted and then he's VERY aggressive. The moon pendant he got from his friend Rose, who is a princess in Hells Valley.
---------------------- ROSE
She's a very responsible young lady. Tasks are easy for her as she has strong magical powers to help her, and very easy focusing skills. She's not too social herself, which is why she gets along with Yoru. Yoru and Rose first met in the Castles garden, where she was watering her deceased mothers flowers. Yoru happened to be in the middle of the garden somehow, sitting by a patch of fire-roses, his favorite flowers. She comes up to him, at first very defensive. Thinking he was some sort of creep, she pins him down. "Huh?" That was it. She immediately started laughing and called him out: "You should not just say 'huh' when being tackled. What is wrong with you?" She sits by him and when he doesn't answer her for too long, she speaks up about the flowers. She asks him if he likes them and all she gets is a sarcastic response from him. She decides she likes him and stays with him. Years later, Yoru is given a mission from Rosary to seek out what all of the trouble is in the Overworld. Leaving Rose behind he says one more thing to her: "I might be back. Or not. If anything happens to me, don't get involved, princess." ---------------------- ROSARY
Rosary is the keeper of a very old shrine. The only one left in Hells Valley. She is the protector of it and can feel whenever there is something off with it. She immediately knows something is wrong when a dull light comes out of it. "That is not supposed to be happening." She sends Cross to go get Yoru, who is now old enough to explore the Overworld. Not much else is known about Rosary, other than she's ancient, having been the keeper of this shrine since its early days. ---------------------- Anddd we'll end this here!! It's still very disorganized but I'll get it working. I just wanted to talk about it teehee. There will be multiple parts, as I'll probably do 3 characters each post. Rose's is a bit long just so you guys know!!! ---------------------- NONE OF THIS ART BELONGS TO ME SO PLEASE DO NOT REPOST THIS. I want to trust you all, and share my sillies with you. Credits to Yoru's art goes to Kopiko Credits to Rose's art goes to Zmo Credits to Rosary's art goes to Swiftystarss

March 19th was Saint Joseph's Day. While I worked all day, this looks like a beautiful moment to connect with him. Thank you, joanofarcs-stigmata for sharing this rosary prayer!
Rosary Prayers of St. Joseph for the Feast of St. Joseph, Foster Father of Jesus
Usually when we think of rosaries, we think of Mary-- after all, if you were to pray all 20 mysteries, you'd be saying 200 Hail Marys! But while the traditional rosary uses Mary to center our gaze on Christ, another form less often discussed uses the examples left to us by Saint Joseph to better connect with God. The Saint Joseph rosary uses Joseph to help us better understand purity, fidelity, and humility, all while celebrating Joseph's role in the Holy Family, while asking for his intercession to help us imitate his trust in God.
The 'Hail Joseph':
The Saint Joseph rosary begins like most rosaries, with the sign of the Cross and Apostles Creed, but instead of a 'Hail Mary', we pray the 'Hail Joseph':
Hail Joseph, Son of David, spouse of Mary. Blessed art thou among patriarchs, and blessed is thy Holy Family. Holy Joseph, Guardian of Jesus, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death. Amen.
The Mysteries:
The Betrothal to Mary: Let us contemplate now how the Blessed Virgin Mary was betrothed to a man named Joseph, of the house of David, beginning a loving partnership, not of a union of bodies but a communion of souls; through this mystery may we better come to understand Godly relationships, friendships, and devotions, should one experience them.
The Annunciation to Joseph: Let us contemplate now how Joseph, being a righteous man, decided to divorce Our Lady quietly when she was found with child, and how the angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and declared unto him that the child had been conceived through the power of Holy Spirit. Through this mystery, may we better come ot understand faith in our fellow man and faith in God's will.
The Nativity and Naming of Jesus: Let us contemplate now how Joseph went up to Bethlehem with Mary, and while they were there, in the city of David, she gave birth to the Savior, Christ the Lord. And when eight days were completed for his circumcision, he was named Jesus. Through dwelling on this mystery, may we obtain the greater reverence for the Name above all names, Jesus Christ the Lord.
The Flight into Egypt: Let us contemplate now how Joseph, being a devoted spouse and guardian of the Holy Family, took Jesus and Mary to Egypt. Through meditating on this mystery, may we come to have a fiery love of the displaced and oppressed.
The Hidden Life in Nazareth: Let us contemplate how Joseph took Jesus and Mary to Nazareth and there lived a quiet life working as a carpenter with Jesus and Mary at his side, through the joys and sorrows of everyday life, until the end. May we all have the gift of a peaceful death with Jesus at our side.
Closing Prayers:
Pray for us O Blessed Joseph that we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ. Almighty and eternal God, grant, we beseech thee, that by meditating upon the mysteries of the Rosary of Saint Joseph, we may imitate his prayerful trust, and faithfully carry out your holy will, despite difficulties, uncertainties, and fears. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, for ever and ever. Amen.
Hail, holy Joseph, Hail, Chaste Spouse of Mary, Hail! Pure as the lily flower In Eden’s peaceful vale. Hail, holy Joseph, hail, Prince of the house of God. May His best graces be By thy sweet hands bestowed.
Hail, holy Joseph, hail, Comrade of angels, hail! Cheer thou the hearts that faint, And guide the steps that fail. Hail, holy Joseph, hail! God’s choice were thou alone. To thee the Word made flesh Was subject as a son.
