Saint Michael the Archangel's Rosary
Saint Michael the Archangel, with his sword, is known to fight against evil. We can also pray to him in different ways: prayer, novena or even by a very powerful rosary. This prayer, also called an angelic crown, was a private revelation to a Portuguese nun, later approved by the Pope. This rosary is a source of grace and a powerful bulwark against Satan.
The rosary of Saint Michael the Archangel is effective, but so is the prayer of the rosary. The Blessed Virgin does not get tired of answering our requests.

Why and against what is this rosary the most powerful?
The Rosary Against Evil
The rosary is a prayer that we can meditate on and which has many spiritual benefits. This is also the case for other types of rosary. This angelic crown (another possible name for the rosary to Saint Michael the Archangel) is useful in case of spiritual battles. Pope Francis has often reminded us that the fight against evil is part of our lives. Saint Michael is the archangel who fought satan, let us not be afraid to rely on his intercession!
The Rosary to Receive Grace
In 1851, Pope Pius IX approved this form of prayer to the Archangel Saint Michael. And he also allowed people who fervently recite this prayer to receive an indulgence, especially on the feast day of Saint Michael, September 29. This rosary asking for the intercession of the holy archangels is a protection against evil for those who recite it.
Another promise is also associated with this prayer: the release from purgatory of the deceased person for whom we recite this prayer.
Finish the rosary with a prayer to the Archangel

And you, Prince of the Heavenly Host, by the power of God, cast into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.” - Leon XIII
