Family Constellation

The work in Family Constellation honors the collective conscience. Understanding the implications and intentions of these laws is essential to bring healing. The aim of this form of therapy is to heal imbalance in a family system and to support clients to find peace and acceptance with the past and what has happened.

The collective consciousness is based on the principles of belonging, order and balance. Let’s take deeper look at this.

Belonging refers essentially to all family members being included, and respected equally.

Hierarchy is existential and part of a natural order of life. Hence, within a family system chronological order is given priority, and family members are ranked in order of their arrival. This idea is deeply ingrained in the collective unconscious.

Balance refers to injustices of previous generations being balanced by later members of the same family. The collective conscience functions in such as way as to keep passing on the responsibility of retribution from generation to generation until it is addressed, claimed or cancelled out. In this way, everyone is responsible whether they are aware of this or not. Healing arises when we are ready to carry the destiny that comes with our life, and acceptance of the fact that we are part of a particular family and it’s history.

Svagito R. Leibermeister, a very reputable trainer in this field has said:

Collective conscience treats every member equally, ignores any differences between them and works for the welfare and survival of the whole.

This law protects each member’s right to belong to the family and also confines people in their place within the system…

If an individual is going to rise above the entanglements of family bonds, he first needs to understand and fall in tune with his family’s collective conscience.

When balance has been restored…old accounts have been settled, when everything is in rightful order, then may he consider himself free to explore his individual preferences.
