St. Bridget of Sweden, whilst still in her girlhood, was seized in ecstasy with a vision of her Blessed Saviour hanging upon the wood of the cross. This was the first of thousands of visions and dialogues between our saint and the heavenly court. This volume, for the first time, brings before the reader the most profound and insightful experiences of this medieval mystic and collates them according to the mysteries of the rosary.
For each bead of the rosary, you will find a choicely selected point of meditation to ponder over, and an opportunity to join St. Bridget of Sweden as she illuminates the familiar scenes of the mysteries with details unrecorded in the Sacred Scriptures.
As in the previously edited volumes in this series, in addition to the Fifteen traditional mysteries, meditations are also included for Pope John Paul II''s Mysteries of Light, as well as the Hopeful Mysteries; which feature the central events of the plan of redemption prior to the Annunciation.
Those wishing to establish a deeper source of contemplative material for the daily rosary will find this book, and St. Bridget of Sweden, their ideal companion on the road to True Devotion.

Bridget of Sweden (1303 to 1373; also Birgitta of Vadstena, Saint Birgitta, was a mystic and saint, and founder of the Bridgettines after the death of her husband of twenty years. She was also the mother of Catherine of Vadstena.As a child, she had already believed herself to have visions; these became more frequent, and her records of these "Celestial revelations" which were translated into Latin by Matthias, canon of Linköping, and by her confessor, Peter, prior of Alvastra, obtained a great vogue during the Middle Ages. Her visions of the Nativity of Jesus had a great influence on depictions of the Nativity of Jesus in art. Shortly before her death, she described a vision which included the infant Jesus as lying on the ground, and emitting light himself, and describes the Virgin as blond-haired; many depictions followed this and reduced other light sources in the scene to emphasize this effect, and the Nativity remained very commonly treated with chiaroscuro through to the Baroque. Other details often seen such as a single candle "attached to the wall," and the presence of God the Father above, also come from Bridget''s vision.This edition contains all that is known today of the visions and prophecies of Saint Brigdet and most of her prayers.
