Weekly Blessings 8 – Wednesday, February 28th, 2024

30 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!

Once a week, on Wednesday, I send blessings to everybody who has requested them this 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 blessings at some point on Wednesday, and send them to 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 send blessings to the people who have explicitly requested them in a comment to the current week’s blessing post. I.e. if you would like to receive blessings again next week, you will need to comment again.

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.

About the blessing itself: I send a “generic” blessing to everybody on the list, also including intentions for health, protection, and divine guidance. For those who have a relationship with a specific deity or deities, I respectfully ask for blessings from their respective deities, too. (If you don’t feel comfortable sharing your personal religious beliefs on a public forum, there is no need to list them. I trust that your personal deities will know who you are and will, hopefully, respond favourably. 🙂 )

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.**

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 blessings in time, and they 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’…

    • Jeff,

      Gladly, thanks for signing up! 🙂

      Specifics are allowed. My current practice is to do a general blessing for all participants first (including very general and broad-range intentions for protection, health, good things and divine guidance in a way which I think is appropriate to everybody, and including a part where I respectfully ask the respective deities of the recipients to also bless them).

      Then afterwards I go through the list and bless everybody again individually, and that‘s also the part where I include specifics as yours.

      Hope this clears things up! 🙂

  3. Hi Milkyway. Thank you for your efforts. I would like a blessing and I would like to reciprocate. A general blessing on my life is fine. Thank you.

    • Hi Justin,

    I would really be thankful for a blessing this week. In particular, to help clean up a mess that I have made.
    Thank you so much for what you do.

    • Hi Mark,

      You‘re very welcome, and I‘ve added you to the list.

      I wish you a good outcome in cleaning up that mess!

  5. Hi Regine,
    Husband Trevor and I would appreciate your blessing. Also, my sister is visiting for the first time in several years, and I am hopeful this may be a healing visit for my family.
    Thanks!

    • Hi Valerie,

      Welcome back! 🙂

      I’ve put you on the list, and I hope you’ll be able to enjoy your sister’s visit, and have a wonderful time together.

      • Thank you, Regine! We had a wonderful and healing visit with my sister. Four years of family angst were laid to rest for all of us. We all parted as friends and allies once more.

        (PS – May I attempt to send you a Healing Hands thank you from time to time? Perhaps something like “May Regine have what she most needs today?”)

        • Valerie,

          That’s awesome news – good to hear it all worked out to the best! Thanks for letting me know. 🙂

          > (PS – May I attempt to send you a Healing Hands thank you from time to time? Perhaps something like “May Regine have what she most needs today?”)

          Thanks for the offer.

          I feel that I need to give some background explanation first before I reply, not just for your sake, but for the sake of everybody else who reads this and might have a similar question:

          I’d rather not get any energy or similar things sent my way without my express consent at any given time. That includes all kinds of “energy”, i.e. not just MOE/Healing Hands, but also other healing energies, blessings, prayers, etc.

          Thus I really appreciate offers as yours (or the blessings that other people have offered), as long as the people who offer understand that I might refuse (and will not be miffed because of a potential refusal -it’s nothing personal!). I have simply found that even “good” energy isn’t always appropriate.

          Having said all that, I would like to accept your offer, but specifically only for this month of March. I.e. if/when you feel like doing so this month, I’ll happily and gratefully accept. Thanks! 🙂

          • I appreciate your detailed reply, Regine. No offense taken! That’s why it’s important to ask before sending. Sometimes, like you say, even “good” energy is disruptive. I wish I knew why that is, but I’ve had that experience myself. (Well, unless it’s something like Quin’s prayer list. JMG determined that Healing Hands is prayer-adjacent, so if someone puts their name on Quin’s list seeking prayer, Healing Hands is among the appropriate responses.)

            • Hi again,

              And thanks for your kind reply. 🙂

              „Prayer-adjacent“ is a nice word, I‘ll have to file that for future use. 😉

              Tbh, I‘m a bit torn about the Healing Hands. I initially thought the same, but have since had a few experiences which make me think they are a lot more powerful than this seemingly „soft“ practice lets on. Beneficial isn‘t always the same as gentle, and depending on where people are when they ask for prayer, anything less than gentle might blow them over.

              I don‘t have enough experience yet to determine whether the MOE energies are conscious of this distinction and will respect it, i.e. if they only come in with the heavy equipment if the situation will allow it and the person can bear it, or if they aren‘t.

              I.e. at the current stage I‘m undecided, and reserve the right to change my position in any and all directions… 🙂

  6. Hi Milkyway, I appreciate this from you very much. I would appreciate your blessings for a very big transitional period ahead in my career and life as I try to get a tech startup off the ground.

    • Hi Ron,

      Great, I’ve added you to the list. And thanks for asking: Yes, I would indeed welcome a blessing this week. Thanks!

    • Hi James,

      That sounds like quite a project!

      I’ve added your request to the list. Just to make sure I got it right, when you say “household”, does that include the people in the household, or are we strictly talking about the building, garden and their furnishings? 🙂

  10. I would appreciate a blessing. (If possible, to encourage a foot injury to heal.)
    I would also like to reciprocate, if you permit.

    • Hi RandomActsOfKarma,

      Noted, and thanks for asking! Yes, I would appreciate a blessing in return this week.

      Btw, not sure if you have seen this, but my fellow MOE Master Teacher Kyle (kylec on dreamwidth) was offering individual MOE healing energy this Magic Monday. Not sure if he still has slots left, but it might be worth asking him, too, with regards to your foot.

  13. Hallo Milkyway,

    Fully acknowledge that I am a bit over the deadline, but a generic blessing would be appreciated.

    Best regards,
    Vitranc

    • Hi Vitranc,

      No problem. As I said, I’m not dogmatic about the deadline – it’s just to ensure that I see a request. Atm, I don’t have a fixed time for the blessing on Wednesdays, but rather fit it in when my schedule permits on that particular day. This can be early in the morning or late at night, or at any time in between.

      I’m going to include your request when I do the blessing in a little while. 🙂

      Regine
