Why is there no crucifix on the Anglican rosary?

All Anglican Prayer Beads or Anglican Rosaries contain a cross but some also have a crucifix.A crucifix (from Latin cruci fixus meaning "(one) fixed to a cross") is a three-dimensional cross with a representation of Jesus' body, the "corpus" nailed to the cross.Usually known as the "Anglican rosary," or sometimes "Christian prayer beads," or "ecumenical prayer beads," Anglican prayer beads are a loop of strung beads which Anglicans and other Christians use as a focus for prayer. Anglican prayer beads were developed in the mid-1980s by Episcopalians participating in a study group dealing with methods of prayer.Anglican prayer bead sets consist of thirty-three beads divided into groups. There are four groups of seven beads with additional single beads separating the groups. The number thirty-three signifies the number of years that Christ lived on the Earth, while the number seven signifies wholeness or completion in the faith, the days of creation and the number four signifies the seasons of the Church year.

Why are meditation beads kept private?

Other folks may have a different take on this question. My answer is that some people who meditate with beads, a Mala or other type of meditation/prayer beads believe that their beads can absorb a type of energy from the user (and their rituals). There is positive and not so positive energies in the world. If someone else handles the "beads", they can absorb energy when handled (sometimes less than positive energy). Another way of looking at it is Just like keeping our hands clean by washing them (particularly after sneezing), we want to keep our "beads" clean of outside energy. Some people actually cleanse their beads (not done by traditional washing).
