In each Constellation, the universal yearning to live more meaningfully, love more deeply and communicate more truthfully is revealed to be restricted by a hidden blueprint that has long outlived its purpose.
For example, we saw how two loving sisters from generations ago, dealt with only one of them being able to birth a child. The one sister’s sorrow became a loss shared by the other sister’s daughter. It was as if the child born and the child not-born had to be equally loved. As this unspoken requirement spilled forward, children in succeeding generations felt it was wrong to claim the right to be their full selves. When seen, felt and understood, the entanglement inherited from a century ago lost its strength. The woman in our circle could take deeper breaths and express her vibrant presence and joy of being alive. In other pieces, the fractals we unearthed related to bigger historic traumas, such as the 30 Years War, which began exactly 400 years ago. Though long forgotten or obscured by indecipherable facts, this War remains an indelible wound in the hearts of many descendants of those who suffered through it. The atrocities perpetrated by Swedish mercenaries, the heights of European witch burnings and the horrors of mass rape, famine and migration, become present day fractals that remain active in the core of our bodies. We are descendants of slaves and slave-masters, priests and shamans, rapists and their impregnated victims, the powerful and the impotent, the sacred and the secular. The men and women behind us who endured and sacrificed to pass life on show up in our circle and are felt in tangible ways as being present in support of our freedom, life force, and healing.
