context_page_description: Rosary-based prayers are Christian prayers said on a set of rosary beads, among other cords. These prayers recite specific word sequences on different parts of the rosary beads. They may be directed at Jesus Christ, the Virgin Mary or God the Father.
context_section_description: The Chaplet of St. Michael the Archangel was approved by Pope Pius IX in 1851, and was granted indulgences. It is based on a vision of Archangel Michael reported by the Portuguese Carmelite nun Antonia d'Astonac.
  The chaplet consists of nine salutations, one for each choir of angels. An Our Father and three Hail Marys are said on each (one large and three small beads) section. It concludes with four Our Fathers, honoring Saints Michael, Gabriel, Raphael and the Guardian Angel. The chaplet is begun with an act of contrition and is concluded with a prayer to Saint Michael.
  Along with the Scapular of St. Michael, this chaplet forms the pair of Roman Catholic Sacramentals devoted to Archangel Michael.
