Your Constellation is the beginning of a healing journey. It will continue to process in your soul over time. Deep insights and strong emotions may arise in the days, weeks and months that follow. You may notice shifts in your relationships, your self-perception, the situations you attract and your ways of being.

Helpful points to keep in mind:

• One effect of a constellation is to create a new image of your family system. Keep the last image of the constellation in your heart. It will grow within you over time.
  
  

• Allow yourself to feel and express any emotions that come up. It’s possible that you may feel worse in the days after your constellation before feeling better.
  
  

• Don’t go over the steps of your constellation in your mind. If you do that, you’ll try to interpret it through analyzing what happened. Constellations are not meant to be understood by the mind. Your soul understands. The soul holds the ancestral memories.

• Avoid discussing details of your constellation with others. This is an invitation for their feedback and opinions, which can take away from your inner knowing. Others can’t understand what you experienced.
  
  

• Constellations can be an ongoing resource for you to address various issues and layers of healing. However, it’s best not to rush into your next constellation. Generally, it’s advisable to wait at least a month before you set up another constellation for yourself - either privately or in a group setting. Trust yourself to know when the timing is right.
  
  You’re welcome to join constellations in a group setting at any time. It will support you to be a witness or representative in another’s constellation.
  
  

• Trust that your soul brought forward what needed to be seen and that you got what you were ready for. If your constellation felt unresolved, trust that it still worked and that it will continue to have deep effects at the soul level.
  
  

• Do the work suggested to you to support your integration of the constellation. Usually what’s suggested is a ritual. Rituals are particularly powerful because they operate at the level of the primal brain, helping to imprint the shift in your unconscious mind.
