+++ 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’…

Matt says
Hi Regine!
I’m back – hope your late spring is going well!
I would welcome a blessing this week.
Thanks as always,
Matt
Regine says
Hi Matt,
And welcome back! I am indeed, albeit a tad busy – I hope yours is going equally well! 🙂
Noted,

Hello Regine, please bless us again this week: Josiah, Joanna, Eleanor, and me. Thank you!
Regine says
Hi again,
Sure thing! I hope you’re all fine, and am enjoying a nice late spring (or probably more like an early summer in your climate, isn’t it?). 🙂

Greetings and thanks from the Nickel, Regine! 🙏
We’re all doing well, with the possible exception of Vanessa. Thanks for the extra blessing emphasis on her behalf last week. She does appreciate it. This is her first (and hopefully last) broken bone, and it’s hard for her to appreciate how long broken bones take to heal. Especially for those of us (considerably) over 40 years old.
We hope you and yours are doing well, in spite of all of the craziness we humans are immersed in these days. May I continue to send you my blessings as well?
🙏
Valerie
Regine says
Hi there,
Ouch – I can relate to Vanessa’s plight. Having to be patient with something like this sucks, to put it mildly! 😀 I hope everything is going to be fine in the end, though.
We are indeed doing well, although a sudden onset of summer heat (within the blink of an eye) has left us flailing – we’re still adjusting our routines (when to open and close windows and shutters, when to work outside, etc). But hey, it’s summer! 🙂
Glad to hear you’re all doing well otherwise, and I’ll very gladly include you all again. And yes, please, I’d very much appreciate your blessings this week. Thanks for asking,
Regine
V.O.G says
Hello Regine,
I hope your spring-into-summer is going well! Gardens seem to just explode this time of year, don’t they?
I would be very grateful for a blessing this week, please, and as always I offer mine in return.
Thank you!

Regine says
Hi V.O.G.,
They are indeed epxloding, aren’t they? 🙂 Noted, and yes, please, I’d be very grateful for yours, too. Thanks for offering, and I hope you can enjoy some time outdoors,
Regine
Markéta says
Hi Regine,
my dearest friend,
would you bless us,
from start to end?
Aimy and me and no mistake
with gratitude we will take
your blessings…
Among all things
that could be done
can we offer one
in return? These days
are hot in several ways
-but hey! It’s Summer!
Leaders could be even dummer,
Good news as always come
if you dig deep-as some
of us do… Like you
when planting potatoes.
With love and hugging, yours,
Markéta
Regine says
Hi Markéta,
Oh wow, how wonderful! Thank you very much! 🙂
Noted, and please give Aimy a hug from me, too,
Regine
Marko says
Hi Regine,
I hope I am not too late for these weeks blessings.
I would request a tripple dose for me, Viktoria and Noah.
🙏
Best regards,
Marko
Regine says
Hi Marko,
Not too late at all, and a triple does it is! 🙂
Hope you all get to enjoy the summer weather,
Regine
