Today is the Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary, the anniversary of the battle of Lepanto in 1571, and this month of October is traditionally presented as being dedicated to the Rosary.
To mark today’s liturgy and the theme for the month the Priestly Fraternity of St Peter have an article on their Minute Missive website by Fr William Rock FSSP about the various and varied interpretations that have been offered for the number of beads and Aves that comprise a complete rosary. Some of these derive from Scripture, others from mathematics, and virtually none are exclusive of others. There are not a few interesting coincidences along the way.
The article can be read at There's Something Fishy about that there Rosary
Our Lady of the Rosary, Our Lady of Victories, Pray for us
