Weekly Blessings 50 – Wednesday, December 18th, 2024

28 Comments

+++ 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!

Heads up: I’m going to take the time between the years off. The blessings will continue, but with some procedural changes. Read more about this here (but don’t forget to come back and sign up for this week’s blessing!).

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’…

  1. Hi Regine!
    I am glad to know you are getting some time off. You deserve it, after all the good you’ve done this year with your blessings and much more, I am sure.
    For now, I am going to ask to be included in your blessings next week too 🙂
    Thank you! Enjoy your holidays !

    • Hey Natalia,

      Good to have you back! 🙂

      Just to note, the blessings will continue even during my off-time this year.

      There will be some slight changes, though. Most notably, I will only put through blessing request comments once a week when I log in on Wednesdays, i.e. it might be a few days before people see their own comments being live. And I‘ll refrain from replying to the comments. I think that‘s bearable for two weeks… 😉

      I‘m looking forward to signups during this time, though! I‘d feel a bit silly if I logged in the first Wednesday during my break, just to realise nobody has signed up. 😀

      All the best to you,

      Regine

  6. Hi Regine,

    Thank you for your blessings! We are doing basically well, but my husband Josiah has been under the weather physically and mentally lately, just kind of stressed out and overwhelmed, and I am struggling with the normal (but still unpleasant) discomforts of late pregnancy such as sore hips and poor sleep, so we would very much appreciate a blessing again this week.

    • Hi Jennifer,

      Sorry to hear that, and I hope Josiah will be better soon (I’d wish the same for you, but I’d rather things happened in due time, for both you and the little one, even if this means discomfort for some more weeks… 😉 ). I’ll gladly include you – the kids again, too?

  7. Hi Regine, I would like to be included again and also request a blessing for my sister, Holly, and her children Lucy and Peter. I practice Druidry with a connection to Hu Gadarn and Holly is a Buddhist with a connection to Kuan Yin.
    Many thanks and hope you are well!

    • Hi Andy,

  8. Hey Regine!

  9. OEP here to say thank you for your blessings from December 4th. my friend and I were able to talk and are continuing our friendship, though with a note of caution that was not there before. Difficult lessons have been learned on both sides.

    • Hi OEP,

      That’s great news. I’m glad you’ve been able to mend at least some things, and do still have a friendship, albeit a changed one. I hope in the long run, even this change will work out to the best for both of you.

      To clarify, are you signing up for another blessing this week, or did you just want to report back (with “just” being the wrong term, really, as I very much appreciate the feedback!)?

      I have the nagging feeling that people think they can or should only sign up if they have a “reason” – but isn’t being on this eart reason enough to be blessed? 😀
