Family and Ancestral Constellations
Family and Ancestral Constellations, according to Idris Lahore Method, show us that very often, we reproduce behaviors and situations that a member of our family or ancestral system has already experienced. They are a method that enables us to reveal these influences and to trigger a process of liberation and harmonization for ourselves and our family system.
Family Constellations
“Usually”, we think that everything that happens to us is our own doing, perhaps even our fault, or even the consequence of our personal past.
However, family or ancestral constellations show us that very often, when we do what we don’t want to do, for example : entering into a conflict that we wanted to avoid, or when we do not do what we would like to do, for example when we can’t manage to follow a diet that was so important to us, this is often not our own doing, This can sometimes be linked to the influence of a member of our family or ancestral system, through what this member has done or not done, or neglected to do.
This person could be a grandparent or a dead ancestor, who we might not even have known and we find ourselves under their influence. This shows us that we sometimes reproduce behavior or situations, that a member of our family system has already experienced.
In transgenerational terminology, we call this "to be entangled" with a member of our family or ancestral system.
It is difficult to observe these influences directly in our family. However, these influences can be contributing factors to serious physical illnesses such as cancer, psychological disorders such as depression, or accidents, repeated failures (unfinished professional projects), recurrent relational or professional difficulties
One way to reveal these influences in our family system is through the practice of family and ancestral constellations.
They bring to light these invisible forces that are like threads that weave their way through our lives and have a decisive impact on them.
Ancestral Constellations
We all have parents, grandparents, great grandparents, ancestors, and forefathers. Amongst these forefathers, some had a lot of force, they overcame difficulties and may have even been reinforced by these difficulties, and other forefathers, that life had worn down, who were weakened by these difficulties...
But we all received life, and the force to live our life thought the lineage of our father and our mother.
And, Systemic Samadeva teaches us that all these forefathers are still living in our cells, through our genetic code, through heredity, that’s why some people have more of a Mediterranean or Slav appearance, and others a European, Asian or African appearance.
Our ancestors are within us, physically… But not only physically…
Very often, a memory of what ancestors have lived through remains, and their trauma may come through in our way of thinking, feeling, or acting in external situations. We call this the epigenetic memory.
We sometimes experience situations that we consider to be our destiny, or our life, but in fact they have come from an ancestral entanglement that forces us to act in a certain way and to put ourselves in situations similar to the ones experienced by a deceased ancestor, sometimes very difficult situations.
Most recurring difficulties that we encounter in our professional, social, relational or inner life, are linked to ancestral factors that we can put right through ancestral constellations, in order to transform these negative influences so that we only receive the force of life from our ancestors.
A lot of men and women who live through these difficulties attribute them to current causes, whereas in reality, they lack the force that comes from the lineage of their ancestors.
For example, some women feel cut off from the feminine force of their lineage and don’t manage to fully live their life as a woman, their womanhood.
Women who have been oppressed, assaulted or violated may still carry the imprint of this suffering in their souls preventing them from standing up for their womanhood for fear of being despised, ill-treated, not acknowledged and not respected…
Idris Lahore tells us: « Through ancestral constellations, we can reinstall the contact with this biological force of our ancestor or with the source of the force of our ancestral lineage... »
