+++ 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 here – 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’…

Thanks for continuing to do these Regine. I will be happy to help you practice and receive another general blessing. I really am grateful for these.

Hi Jusin,
Thanks for signing up again, I really appreciate it. And you‘re very welcome in return. 🙂

Princess Cutekitten says
Sign me up in perpetuity!
And THANK YOU for using black, rather than gray, lettering, on the white background.
Regine says
Dear Princess,
In perpetuity isn‘t possible, I‘m afraid – it would become unmanageable for me real quickly, and also I could never be sure if I still have people‘s consent in later weeks. Thus I’m afraid you will have to sign up anew in each week. 🙂
But you can do this at any time, whenever it occurs to you: I put up the post for next week right when I declare this one closed, thus there is always an active post available to sign up. No need to wait for Mondays!
And about the lettering… lol! I‘m not twenty anymore either, and I want to be able to read my own website without squinting. It‘s good to know somebody appreciates it, though! 😉

Markéta says
Hello Regine,
thank you for your regular blessings. Would you please bless me and my Aimy again this week?
Have a nice day!
Deep blessings to you if welcome,
Markéta
Regine says
Hey Markèta,
Welcome back. Yep, they‘d be very welcome, and I‘ll gladly include the two of you. Hope you‘re both doing fine! 🙂

Greetings and thanks from the Nickel, Regine! Please kindly sign us up for more blessings. 🙂
Shirleen has (for now) buried the hatchet with staff at her assisted living home, and my sisters tell me she is happy with their twice weekly visits and gifts of reading material. I sent a box of chocolates that everyone seemed to enjoy on a visit day.
Vicki starts her leave of absence next week, and when she returns in early November it will be to a new, part-time position in another location. She is cautiously pleased. At age 57, this is MUCH better than the original plan to cut ties and then figure things out. Your blessings certainly helped her arrive at this far better outcome.
Thanks as always, and may you be blessed in turn. (May I continue to “target practice” in your direction? :-))
Valerie, Trevor, Shirleen, Vanessa and Vicki
Regine says
Hi there,
And welcome back. Glad to hear you’re all doing good! Chocolate is always welcome, isn’t it? 😉
Good to hear Shirleen is doing fine. Being able to live your life in quality and in a good situation is very precious at this age. It sounds as if Vicki has found a good path forward for herself. Please tell her I wish her a great time all for herself, and a good start at her new position! I hope she’ll enjoy it there.
And yep, please target away all you want. 🙂

Raina says
hi there I would love some blessings please. I could do with some mental clarity, emotional resilience and a boost to my inner strength to deal with the choices and changes coming up whilst avoiding falling into old needy habits. Thank you in advance!
Regine says
Hi Raina,
Gladly, and you‘re welcome! 🙂 I‘ve put you on the list. Thanks for signing up,
Regine
