Heres my two cents. 😂 my dad was a patriarch. While he was a patriarch he was molesting my 2 sisters. Ive thought a lot about blessings. I took a class once on energy healing since my kids and i have benefitted from this and i wanted to know how it worked, she said that its not magic or vodo-human beings supress this intuitive muscle that we all have. The older we get, the more we learn not to use it. Its like a muscle, you have to excercise it and use it for it to gro stronger. It made sense to me that that is what patriarchs are doing, they are learning to use this intuitive muscle that we all have. Some are better than others. My first two girls had beautiful blessings my last daughter got her last year and it was the most generic thing I had ever heard. Not one thing in it was about her. So some are still learning to tap into that. My husband has never liked giving blessings, he actually hates it I think because using his intuition is really really hard for him. I have often been itching to give blessings to my daughters, but being intuitive come for me.
