What is Family Constellations?
In family constellations we tap into “the knowing field” that deep part of ourselves that is connected to universal wisdom and truth. Constellations are about finding the truth and being clear about the truth, speaking it out loud and letting it be known. The truth is what sets you free. We are frequently in denial and running from the truth, trying to avoid it. This causes suffering. When we look at and acknowledge the truth we can accept what is and be free, free to create new experiences and ways of being.
We use crystals or figurines to represent what is happening internally and set them out in front of us on a table. When we use the representatives we can more easily see what energies, beliefs and patterns exist within us. When we see them represented in front of us and with the support of feelings and inner guidance, we can see where they came from, why they are there, how they help or hinder us, etc. Constellations are also about creating movements in “the field”. This is energy moving around and within us, when this energy moves we move, and when it moves we have access to new pathways and experiences. This is also a way of healing ancestral trauma and breaking family patterns. It’s challenging to see these patterns or understand how they are effecting us, but in this way we can look at them and learn. This is a powerful modality because we work directly with the ancestors and our spirit guides to change these patterns on a spiritual level as well as mental and emotional.
