+++ 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. π 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! π
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! Time for a different cat! (Conan had another good week. π )
Cosmo is 18 years old. By law, she has to have a rabies shot every year. This one was a doozy for her. The shot was four days ago and yesterday was the first day she was almost back to her normal self. But, for those four days, she hardly ate anything and she has lost weight and she was a skinny cat to begin with. So a blessing for her general health or if you can encourage her appetite to come back, that would be great.
Thank you so very much.
Regine says
Hi again,
Very glad to hear Conan had another good week, that’s awesome! π Please feel free to put him back onto the list any time you feel he needs it!
About Cosmo… ouch. Well, that background sucks. I’ll very gladly include her, and I hope she’ll be better soon,
Regine

Dear Regine
Thank you ever so much for calling down blessings. I believe my household continues to walk through the storm towards the light perpetual.
Please can you ask the Archangels and their friends to continue building up my household so we can share light and love with other dear souls.

adara9 says
Hello,
Would you please include me (Heather / adara9) in your blessing this week? In particular, I just completed an initiation, and now my intrusive thoughts / suicidal ideation are acting up. (Yes, I am safe, and have both medication & therapeutical support.) But a reduction in those thoughts &/or a strengthening of my ability to let them pass by would be very welcome.
Thanks,
Heather
Regine says
Hi Heather,
Oh dear! ;-( Glad to hear you have what you need to get through this! I’ll gladly include you on Wednesday.
Thanks for signing up,
Regine
Valerie says
Greetings and thanks from the Nickel, Regine! π
As predictable as ever, weβre back this week asking for a spot on your blessings list. Weβre all doing reasonably well, and hope youβre doing well, too.
May I continue to send you my blessings? βΊοΈ
Thanks as always,
Valerie, Trevor, Shirleen, Vanessa, and Vicki
Regine says
Hey Valerie,
Glad to have you back! π “Reasonably well”? π
I’m doing well, thanks for asking. And yes, please, I’d very much appreciate your blessings this week, thanks for asking about that, too!
Regine
Valerie says
βReasonably wellβ for the truly wild times all of us find ourselves in during these amazing, turbulent times. What were our Higher Selves thinking when they chose this era for our current incarnations? π
Regine says
Ah, in this case, I’m very glad that you’re all reasonably well! And yep, I’m reasonably well, too.
As to what they were thinking… Hm. Maybe that it’s nothing we can’t handle and still come out reasonably well? π
Valerie says
Oh! I love this! May it be so. π
Justin Moore says
Hi Regine,
Thank you for all the blessings with regards to the wedding this past weekend. I really appreciate that support. The ceremony went well, and my voice only cracked a few times from emotion as I did the ceremony. (Immediately afterwards I could let the tears flow.) I have some nieces and nephews who want me to do this for them now, but I got the hardest one done first.
This week I’d just ask for a general blessing for the autumnal season.
Happy equinox to you, and I’ll be happy to return the blessing.
Thank you again.
Regine says
Hey Justin,
Woohoo! That’s awesome – glad to hear things went well. A few emotional moments are fine on such an occasion, I’d say. π And your nieces’ and nephews’ requests are a testimony that you’ve done a great job!
Noted about a blessing this week, and yes, please: I’d very much appreciate your blessings this week, too. Thanks for offering,
Regine
Jack Henry says
Hello again Regine
I hope you’re well and thanks for continuing to offer blessing.
Could I please request a blessing specifically for my brother Michael’s mental health which is very poor right now (his permission has been sought).
Thanks again,
Jack H.
Regine says
Hey Jack,
Welcome back! It’s good to have you here. π
Of course, I’ll gladly include him. I hope you’re doing fine,
Regine
Jack Henry says
Thanks a million Regine.
I’m good, thank you!
