+++ 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!
Once a week, on Wednesday, 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. 🙂 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’…

Dear Regine
Please can you call down blessings from the heavenly host, that my family can continue to navigate the continued storm of callous negligence that our neighbour bestows upon us. We seek the stamina to run this race to the end and the deftness of deer to navigate its twists and turns.
With love and heartfelt kinship for you and your loved ones.

Hi William,
I’ll gladly include you, and I wish you all the best in this. May things resolve (or dissolve) in a good way for everybody involved,
Regine
Valerie says
Greetings and thanks from the Nickel, Regine! 🙏
I’m recovering nicely from a mystery virus that manifested as rheumatoid arthritis symptoms; Shirleen is recovering from a visit to the ER for what was diagnosed as stenosis /pinched nerve in her shoulder area; Vicki’s doctor-averse husband surprised all of us by seeking one out to investigate a newly irregular heartbeat.
(I would add him to your much-appreciated blessing list, but he is very much the “anti-woo” type. )
We hope you are well! May I continue to send you my blessings? 😊
Thanks for your generosity,
Valerie, Trevor, Shirleen, Vanessa, Vicki
Regine says
Hi Valerie,
Yikes about your virus – I hope you’re indeed recovering well (and fast!). Sorry to hear about Shirleen’s trouble as well, this must have hurt. ;-( I’m sure Vicki’s husband will pick whatever is right for him, including woo or non-woo stuff. (I also hope he’s fine, and it’s nothing serious!)
I am indeed well, thanks, and would very much appreciate your blessings this week. Thanks for asking, and all the best (and speedy healing!) to all of you,
Regine

Hi Regine.
It’s been a little while again, but I would like to sign up for a blessing this week. Thank you so much for this service. My daughter is getting married next month and I will be officiating the ceremony. There is a lot going on as we move towards the date and I’d like a blessing on my preparations as we move closer to the date. I’d be happy to offer a blessing to you as well.
Thank you!
Regine says
Hi Justin,
It’s good to have you back. 🙂 Wow, that’s great news, congrats to both you and her! I’ll gladly include you, of course, and I also wish you all the best both for the preparations and for the actual ceremony. And yes, please, I’d very much appreciate your blessing this week. thanks for offering,
Regine
V.O.G says
Hello again!
Last week got away from me; it was already Wednesday when I went to go sign up, too late! So here we are this week instead. 🙂
I’d love a blessing this week, please! And as always, I offer mine in return. 🙂
— V.O.G
Regine says
Hi V.O.G.,
If you arrive here on Wednesday, you can either still sign up for the “old” post if it’s still active, or the new one will already be up, and you could already sign up for the upcoming week. (There is a small in-between phase of a couple of minutes or so, while I put first one inactive, then activate the other one, since this is done manually. But apart from these few minutes (at some point on Wednesday), one Blessing Post should always be active and ready for signups.)
Anyway, I’ll very gladly include you this week, and I’d also very much appreciate your blessing this week. Thanks for offering,
Regine

Hello again, Regine.
I’ll offer you a blessing this week if you will have it, and I’d appreciate one from you. I could particularly use help with staying grounded amidst the many personal and professional changes now underway in my life.
(I think the saying goes, “Be careful what you wish for, you just might get it!”)😉
Thanks!
*OHC*
Regine says
Hey OHC,
Great to have you back this week! 🙂 Yes, please, I’d very much appreciate your blessing this week – thanks for offering. And noted, I’ll gladly include you.

Har!! 😀
