A memento mori rosary reminds us of our mortality and that we will one day die and stand before the Lord Jesus, our soul awaiting His judgement. Certainly, a skull rosary is not for everyone as some people may find it morbid.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe use of symbolic skulls in rosaries and chaplets dates all the way back to the late Middle Ages (1050 - 1500). They were particularly popular in Italy, Germany, and Mexico with priests, nuns, and monks. Skulls on rosaries have been used for hundreds of years, and historical art and doctrine supports the use of skulls on the rosary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Latin phrase \"Memento Mori\", meaning “Remember you must die”, was influential in art and religious life dating back to Medieval Europe. It is a reminder both of our mortality and of the judgment that will follow our death. St. Teresa of Avila was known to have a skull on her rosary for this very reason.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Unique Rosary Beads","offers":[{"title":"Cream","offer_id":56546909323604,"sku":"MI001\/CR","price":7.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Black","offer_id":56546909356372,"sku":"MI001\/BLK","price":7.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Red","offer_id":56546909389140,"sku":"MI001\/RD","price":7.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Dark Blue","offer_id":56546909421908,"sku":"MI001\/DBL","price":7.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Yellow","offer_id":56546909454676,"sku":"MI001\/YLW","price":7.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Purple","offer_id":56546909487444,"sku":"MI001\/PUR","price":7.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Green","offer_id":56546909520212,"sku":"MI001\/GRN","price":7.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Orange","offer_id":56546909552980,"sku":"MI001\/ORG","price":7.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Light Blue","offer_id":56546909585748,"sku":"MI001\/LBL","price":7.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bluepirate.co.uk\/products\/memento-mori-skull-holy-souls-rosary-sacramental-clip-in-various-colours","provider":"Blue Pirate","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
