+++ 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 this week – may these blessings bring you good things!
++ IMPORTANT: The cutoff time for this blessing is earlier than usual! Please submit your requests by noon (German time) on Tuesday 3rd at the latest. Thanks! ++
Once a week, [usually] on Wednesday [this week: Tuesday!], I bless everybody 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. ๐ 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! ๐
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’…

Jennifer Kobernik says
Hello Regine, please bless us this week if you will: Josiah, Joanna, Eleanor, and me. We are all doing quite well and would like it to stay that way, heh. Thank you!
Regine says
Hi Jennifer,
Noted. Glad to hear you’re all doing quite well – and I also hope it’ll stay that way for you!
All the best to you and your family,
Regine
William says
Hi Regine,
I would greatly appreciate another general blessing this week.
Regine says
Hey William,
Welcome back. I’ll gladly include you, and I hope things have been going well for you recently. ๐

Marko says
Hi Regine,
I tโs been a while, but we(myself Viktoria and the coming little one would welcome a blessing.
Best regards,
Marko
Regine says
Hi Marko,
Gladly! Hope you’re all doing fine, especially the little one,
Regine
Marko says
Hi Regine,
Thank you. Yes, the little one is doing just fine, I like to say that all the doctorโs appointments have been blessedly boring. ๐
Viktoria said the little one does โstrampelnโ and โSchnacken stoรenโ.
We are in the final stretch, in a bit over a month I should be a father (nerves, oh the nerves).
But first a little trip to Britain โบ๏ธ๐ค
Regine says
Hi Marko,
Boring doctor’s appointements sound like a very good thing! You’ll do just fine, and your nerves will be fine, too. I reckon you’ll also be well-trained soon by the little one… ๐
> But first a little trip to Britain
Looks like a lot of people are going to travel to Britain soon… what a coincidence! ๐
Justin Moore says
Hi Regine,
I’ll take a general blessing, thank you! And return the same if you like…
…the picnic went very well and everyone got along great, btw!
Thanks so much!
Regine says
Hey Justin,
Awesome about the picnic – well done by you and your dad! ๐
Noted, and yes, please, I’d be very grateful for your blessing this week. Thanks for asking,
Regine
Paedrig says
Hello! I would ask for blessings for myself and my home as I return to it. Its going to need a lot of tlc and for its emergy to be cleansed. May this be a new chapter for the home and my life.
I would also like to ask for blessings for my friend, Anna Pockets. She’s struggling with depression and heartbreak and is about to have to move and could really use all the positive energy she could get.
Thank you for your blessings and all your work!
Regine says
Hey Paedrig,
Gladly. I hope you’ll be very happy in your home, and will get to enjoy it. ๐
Also noted about Anna (I trust she has agreed to being blessed or prayed for – if not, could you please ask her if she’s fine with it?). Sounds as if she’s in a tough spot, and I hope things will clear up for her soon!
You’re very welcome,
Regine
Paedrig says
I asked Anna if it was ok before I even asked you. If I have learned anything from your course, its that blessings must be voluntary – after all, sometimes healing is hard!
Thank you and Bless you, Regine, for your blessings and wisdom – assuming you consent to be blessed, of course! Be well.
Regine says
Hi again,
I figured (and did include her, in case you were wondering) – but sometimes other people read these comments, too, and then things can become muddy.
I generally also appreciate being asked, as not all of my weeks are equal, and sometimes even well-intentioned blessings can be too much, so thanks for that. And yes, I would very much appreciate your blessings this week! ๐
Thanks,
Regine
Susan says
As we age we do our best to hold on to our health and equinimity. I would appreciate having your blessings for Benjamin, Jerry, Larry, Gail, Neese and me, Susan.
I would ask for the world but that would take forever.
Regine says
Hi Susan,
I’ll gladly do that. I require people’s consent, though (within the limits spelled out above in the post), i.e. if you haven’t done so, could you please ask the others if it’s ok for them to be blessed – thanks!
The whole world would be a bit much for just me to handle – if you’d like to get a step closer to that, you could of course start blessing others yourself. I happen to have published a handy “getting started” guide… ๐

Michel Jean says
Thank you for your gracious offer!
Can I ask for a blessing to ensure that my move to Cambodia goes as smoothly as possible and that it augurs well for my spiritual development?
Regine says
Hi Michel,

Greetings and thanks from the Nickel, Regine! We’re doing well, and hope you are, too.
Please put us back on your list for another round of blessing goodness. ๐
May I continue to send you my blessing as well?
I’m thinking you are among the lucky ones who will meet up with JMG in Glastonbury this week. If so, here’s wishing you a safe trip and a beautiful time in England.
Thanks for your generosity,
Valerie, Trevor, Shirleen, Vanessa, and Vicki
Regine says
Hi Valerie,

Thanks,

Jeff Russell says
Howdy,
Wasn’t sure if you’d be offering blessings this week with your upcoming travel, so thank you for making the time!
Once again, I’d like to request blessings of happiness and strength for my girls and myself as we adjust to the new shape of our lives, in the name of Frigg, Hearthmother.
My blessings to you as well, and safe and enjoyable travels!
Jeff
Regine says
Hey Jeff,
Well, do you stop working a week before you go on a trip? Thought so… ๐ Seriously, though, these blessings are important to me, and I try not to skip one if I can help it.
Noted, and thanks a lot for your good wishes. All the best to you and your family,
Regine
