How to Pray the Rosary
The Rosary is a devotion to the Incarnation of Our Lord and to His Blessed Mother. It is composed of fifteen decades, each decade consisting of the Our Father, ten Hail Marys, and the Glory Be to the Father, and each being recited in honor of some mystery in the life of Our Lord and of His Blessed Mother. During each decade we should call to mind the mystery which it is intended to honor, and pray that we may learn to practice the virtue specially taught us by that mystery.
1. Begin the Rosary by:
2. Making the Sign of the Cross Sign of the Cross and say the Apostles Creed.
3. Say the Our Father.
4. Say three Hail Marys.
5. Say the Glory Be and then, if you wish, say the Fatima Prayer.
6. Announce the First Mystery, then say the Our Father.
7. Say ten Hail Marys, while meditating on the Mystery.
8. Say the Glory Be, then, if you wish, say the Fatima Prayer.
9. Announce the Second Mystery; then say the Our Father. Repeat 6 and 7 and continue with Third, Fourth and Fifth Mysteries in the same manner.
10. Say the Hail Holy Queen and the Let Us Pray. Our Rosary group ends the Rosary with Prayer to Saint Michael the Archangel, "The Memorare, and the Sign of the Cross.

The Sign of the Cross:
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.


The Apostles' Creed:
I believe in God, the Father, Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth; and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord; who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified; died, and was buried. He descended into hell; the third day He arose again from the dead; He ascended into heaven, sits at the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from there He shall come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Holy Catholic Church, the communion of Saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen.


The Our Father:
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name: Thy kingdom come: Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread: and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation: but deliver us from evil. Amen.

The Hail Mary:
Hail Mary, full of grace; the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among 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.


Glory Be to the Father:
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit; as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

To thee do we cry, poor banished children of Eve; to thee do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this valley, of tears.

Pray for us, O holy Mother of God. R. That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.

Let Us Pray:
O God, whose only begotten Son, by His life, death, and resurrection has purchased for us the rewards of eternal life, grant, we beseech Thee, that meditating upon these mysteries in the most Holy Rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary, we may imitate what they contain, and obtain what they promise: through the same Christ our Lord. Amen.

Prayer to Saint Michael the Archangel:
St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in our day of battle; be our safeguard against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray. And do thou, O prince of the heavenly host, by the power of God, thrust into hell Satan and all evil spirits who wander through this world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.

The Memorare:
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession was left unaided. Inspired by this confidence, I fly to you O Virgin of virgins, my mother. To you I come; before you I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in your mercy, hear and answer me. Amen.

Peace and every blessing!

I assume you are asking about the meaning rather than the order, since you have two Sorrowful Mysteries and two Luminous Mysteries.

The Agony in the Garden was Jesus' anguished prayer to his Father at Gethsemane, just before his arrest. ("Father, if it is your will, let this cup pass me by...") The Scourging at the Pillar refers to the whipping of Jesus by the Roman soldiers. The Proclamation of the Kingdom is the very beginning of Jesus' public ministry, when he read in the synagogue from the scroll of Isaiah and announced its fulfillment. The Transfiguration was what happened when Jesus took Peter, James and John up a hill and Moses and Elijah appeared with him. And the Assumption of Mary was when she, well, the belief is that she was taken bodily into heaven at the moment she would have died.

Some of these are quite mysterious to think about. That's why they're called "mysteries".

Okay, I can only help you with the first too i'm afraid!

1. The agony in the garden
This was when Jesus went into the Garden at Gethsemanie and bled at every pore for the weight of the sins of mankind

2. The scourging at the pillar
Jesus was whipped many times and was in agony, and it was made worse because he had been up all night in the agony of prayer. Pontius Pilate had ordered for him to be whipped in the hope that it would silence the cries of the people for him to be crucified

The reason why I pray the rosary because it's a Catholic devotion to the Blessed Mother and Virgin, Mary. After I made my confirmation back in 2010, my mom encouraged me to pray the rosary and I asked why. But then I realized that my great grandmother prayed the rosary a lot. So her divine influence really inspired me. And I carry this legacy with me and I hope to pass it onto my nephew when he's old enough. To make it more historically, one of the saints from the Catholic faith known as Saint Dominic. Founder of the Dominican order. During his life time, he encountered a heretical group known as the Albigensian group. He encouraged them to convert to Catholicism and pray the rosary. And on October 7th 1571, Christian Europe was terrorized by Muslim invaders. Pope Saint Pious V called for prayers including the rosary. The Christian army fought victoriously over the enemy and the enemy fled in defeat. Many believed that the battle was a sign of Mary's divine intervention. The day was known as Our Lady of Victory. Now known as Our Lady of the rosary. Which is celebrated every year on October 7th. Today's society, there's moral decay and disorder. The Mother Mary urges all Catholics like me to pray the rosary daily in order for peace and harmony and the end of wars. She also urge us to make sacrificial offerings to God in order to save souls from eternal damnation in Hell. That's my personal opinion and a good valid point.

from the Catholic encyclopedia...

Regarding the day, year, and manner of Our Lady's death, nothing certain is known. The earliest known literary reference to the Assumption is found in the Greek work De Obitu S. Dominae. Catholic faith, however, has always derived our knowledge of the mystery from Apostolic Tradition. Epiphanius (d. 403) acknowledged that he knew nothing definite about it (Haer., lxxix, 11). The dates assigned for it vary between three and fifteen years after Christ's Ascension. Two cities claim to be the place of her departure: Jerusalem and Ephesus. Common consent favours Jerusalem, where her tomb is shown; but some argue in favour of Ephesus. The first six centuries did not know of the tomb of Mary at Jerusalem.

The belief in the corporeal assumption of Mary is founded on the apocryphal treatise De Obitu S. Dominae, bearing the name of St. John, which belongs however to the fourth or fifth century. It is also found in the book De Transitu Virginis, falsely ascribed to St. Melito of Sardis, and in a spurious letter attributed to St. Denis the Areopagite. If we consult genuine writings in the East, it is mentioned in the sermons of St. Andrew of Crete, St. John Damascene, St. Modestus of Jerusalem and others. In the West, St. Gregory of Tours (De gloria mart., I, iv) mentions it first. The sermons of St. Jerome and St. Augustine for this feast, however, are spurious. St. John of Damascus (P. G., I, 96) thus formulates the tradition of the Church of Jerusalem:

St. Juvenal, Bishop of Jerusalem, at the Council of Chalcedon (451), made known to the Emperor Marcian and Pulcheria, who wished to possess the body of the Mother of God, that Mary died in the presence of all the Apostles, but that her tomb, when opened, upon the request of St. Thomas, was found empty; wherefrom the Apostles concluded that the body was taken up to heaven.

Today, the belief in the corporeal assumption of Mary is universal in the East and in the West; according to Benedict XIV (De Festis B.V.M., I, viii, 18) it is a probable opinion, which to deny were impious and blasphemous.

Technically, the Assumption is when Mary went to heaven. Catholics believe that, like Jesus, Mary ascended into heaven with her entire body, and not just her soul. But she did die, and then went to heaven.

They all sound like mysteries, to me . . .
seriously, I used to know all about those things, when I was younger, and more innocent, and much more gullible, and under the command to obey my parents . . .
I grew up, moved away from home, began to read and study for myself, and decided . . . the mysteries of the RC church are totally beyond normal, human comprehension . . . as they are meant to be.
Good luck - even Augustine couldn't figure it out - how can you?
