+++ This Blessing List is now closed. Please sign up here to receive blessings again next week. See you there! +++
Thanks to everybody who signed up for this week – may these blessings bring you good things!
Once a week, on Wednesday, I bless everyone who has requested it for the current week.
The process is simple:
If you would like to be included in the blessings, leave a comment to the current blessing post by Tuesday at the latest.
I will perform the blessing ceremony at some point on Wednesday, and bless everybody who has left a comment by Tuesday.*
All times listed are in German time (i.e. EST+6, apart from the few weeks a year when the US switches to and from daylight savings at a different time than Germany). Please plan accordingly.
I will only bless people who have explicitly requested it in a comment to the current week’s blessing post. I.e. if you would like to be blessed again next week, you will need to comment again.
(To do that, you can come back at any point during the week. I put up the next Blessing List right when I close the preceding one, so you can sign up for the next blessing whenever it’s convenient for you.)
You can also request blessings for other people (or, for that matter, for pets, plants, …) – as long as you have their explicit consent, or you are their rightful “guardian” (e.g. parents for their underage kids; legal caretakers for people with dementia; owners of pets or gardens for their pets or gardens; …).
So… if you would like to receive my blessings this upcoming Wednesday, or if you have any questions, please leave a comment below!
You can use your real name, a nickname of your choice, or comment anonymously.
Please feel free to also share the link to the Blessing List with other people who are interested in being blessed. Everybody is welcome to sign up.
About the blessing itself: During the ceremony, I send a “generic” blessing to everybody on the list, which also includes intentions for health, protection, and divine guidance. I also respectfully ask for blessings from their respective deities during this general part of the cermony for those who have a relationship with a specific deity or deities.
(If you don’t feel comfortable sharing your personal religious beliefs on a public forum, there is no need to list them, as I will do this general part in any case. I trust that your personal deities will know who you are and will, hopefully, respond favourably to this general request. 🙂 If you do mention a specific deity or other divine being in your comment, I will add an extra request to this particular deity and ask them to bestow their blessings upon you, too.)
If there is anything in particular you’d like me to focus on, you can add that to your comment (in just a few words, please!). I will then include this intention specifically for you, but also keep you in the general blessing.**
And if you’d like to know more about the blessings first, you can read the behind-the-scenes-take or my thoughts about one year of blessings – but don’t forget to come back and sign up afterwards! 🙂
For those of you who’d also like to bless others and aren’t sure how to start, I’ve posted a practical guide: Blessing: How to Get Started in 9 Simple Steps.
One final note: I’ll do my best to approve comments in a timely manner, but I am not glued to my screen. It might occasionally take a day or two for your comment to be approved. Thanks for your patience!
* I’m not dogmatic about this deadline. The Tuesday cutoff is simply to make sure I see your request in time, and it will be included for sure. Any comments left after midnight on Tuesday (German time) might or might not be read before the blessing, and might or might not be included.
** I’m not a physician or other health professional. If you have any health issues you’d like me to include, I’m happy to add them – but please remember that a blessing by a random stranger on the internet does not replace a competent medical treatment. Just sayin’…

Hi Regine,
would you, please, bless me and my Aimy again?
Blessings to you, too, if welcome!
Have a nice day,

Valerie says
Greetings and Thanks from the Nickel, Regine! 🙏
Please add us to your much-appreciated blessings list for this week. We are doing well, and hope you and yours are, too. I checked with Vicki about whether or not she’d like to continue adding her late dog Sunny’s name to the list, and she said yes please, through June. I will keep track of that.
May I continue to send my blessings your way? Every day seems a new flavor of chaos from our feckless leaders. Unbelievable. Blessings do help!
🙏
Valerie, Trevor, Shirleen, Vanessa, Vicki, and (Sunny)

My most favourite Nickel! It’s good to have you back. 🙂
Glad to hear you’re all doing well! We are fine, too, thankfully. I’ll gladly include the lot of you, and of course also Sunny for as long as you will request it.
I’d be grateful for your blessings this week, thanks for asking. Yes, they do indeed help, especially in the weird times we are in!
I wish all of you a good week,
Regine

Hi V.O.G.,
Unfortunately, spring has decided to take a break… or fortunately, as it has finally started to rain, which was much needed. Lemons and lemonade and all that. 😉
Noted, and yes, please, I’d very much appreciate your blessing this week, too. Thanks for offering, and I hope you’re having a bright and joyful springtime as well,
Regine
Marko says
Hallo Regine,
Thank you for the blessing last week.
Might ☺️one request a blessing for the three of us again this week.
And I hope to be able to see you soon, should time permit.
Best regards,
Marko
Regine says
Hey there,
One just about might. 😉 Sure thing, and yes, I hope to see you soon – I’ll be there.
A very good week to the three of you,
Regine
