The Holy Rosary

St. Anthony's Tongue
About this episode

The Holy Rosary is a key tool in the arsenal of many practitioners - but what is it? Is the rosary a devotional item, is it a tool for manifestation, it a way to defeat the demonic? Is it all of the above?

Also what's the history of it? Can we alternate the words? Were the prayers always the same? And of course - how can I use it for manifestation, protection and ritual?

We get into all of that in this episode + a list of listener questions on the rosary.

We also have a four part series on the rosary on Patreon, and follow on IG for even more!
