Get ready. You know what is coming, or maybe you don’t want to think about it. Fine. But you need to start somewhere. The daily Rosary is an absolute must. If you have access to daily Mass, and you choose to not avail yourself, you are really, really going to regret that. Holy Mass, the Holy Eucharist, Daily Rosary. If this is how you start your day, it’s going to be a good day, no matter what. And if you haven’t been to Confession, what are you waiting for?
Meanwhile, there is still time for the Epiphany Blessing, after all, we are still within the suppressed Octave. Let’s get started!
The household prayer is traditionally done with a priest and the whole family taking part, but you can do it on your own, in a pinch. Just remember, it’s not you doing the blessing (if you’re a layman), it’s you calling down the blessing from God. God does the blessing.
What you will need is blessed Epiphany water, blessed chalk, and incense. Every church should still have water and chalk available. Call ahead. If you don’t have a thurible, you can get a “starter” one on Amazon for under $15. Nice ones are around $100.
Mine is a little banged up, but I can still swing it.
For incense, I highly recommend Holy Rood Guild, Cantica flavored (although their Laudate is also quite good). It’s not cheap, but it will last you a long time. Don’t make the mistake of using too much; it only takes a little to make a lot of smoke. https://www.holyroodguild.com/Incense_Cantica.html

Sorry for literally cutting, pasting, and taping the blessing, but here it is:
Not sure why that G is there, it should be a C, like this:
Trotsky got one thing right: “You might not be interested in war, but war is interested in you.”
The G is for Gaspar…aka Kasper and Caspar. Thank you so very much for your blog.
Thank you Mark., well said.
One idea to pick at. We need to start identifying locations other than Amazon, Walmart and all tech giants. We need to find it locally and share.
I realize they are billionaires and we are peons (in their eyes) but we must not support/further the agents our own demise.
Many thanks, Mark !
Sir,
In past posts you have referred to the Chinese Coronavirus vaccine as a”jab”. That term is cute and trendy and oh-so-precious. The Luciferian vaccine derived from the cell line of a dead child sacrificed on the altar to Moloch deserves the gravitas of the word “injection”.
Great advice, all, Mark. One of my favorites which I would like to underscore:
“The daily Rosary is an absolute must.”
Yes! For those who don’t already do this, please start. You won’t be sorry. I also suggest “The Secret of the Rosary” by St. Louis de Montfort which offers some great insights into this devotion.
I love this post, thank you for it. Ah me, what times. I will have to see if our priest has holy chalk.
