May Is Mary’s Month

The month of May is graced with a marian devotion. The (3) Empress is displayed along with the seasonal and weekly arcana and the Ave Maria and Regina Caeli antiphon are chanted at the conclusion of each morning’s ritual.

Hail Mary, full of grace. The Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death, Amen.

Joy to thee O Queen of Heaven, Alleluia,
He whom thou wast meet to bear, Alleluia,
As He promised hath arisen, Alleluia,
Pour for us to God thy prayer, Alleluia.
Rejoice and be glad, O Virgin Mary, Alleluia.
For the Lord is risen indeed, Alleluia.
