Family constellations could be described
as living family trees. These constellations reveal
inner images and behaviors that exist below our consciousness,
and whose hidden dynamics motivate us throughout our
lives. Success or failure in our relationships and
work, the advent of illness or depression, and even
our sense of belonging in the world, often depends
upon these hidden forces.
Each of us stands in a particular place within our
family system. By "placing" representatives
for our family according to our own inner image, a
mysterious process of healing unfolds, one in which
a greater order of love and natural belonging is restored.
Within this movement of reconciliation, a stream of
energy flows from each member, giving individuals
their rightful place and full strength within the
family.
"He who
knows something about his origin, knows something
about his purpose."
- Thomas
Aquinas
