That’s the secret of this systemic dynamic. Change is constant; individual leaves wither and die, yet the tree remains. The tree also dies, yet the forest remains. Holding tight to withered leaves may soothe memory, but it doesn’t help the tree. So, too, members of families are born and die, and holding on to what was once good or bad inhibits the natural flow of life.”

Bert Hellinger, Love’s Hidden Symmetry, Chapter 4

Essentials of Classical Constellations

No matter which direction you would like to specialize in as a constellations facilitator, a deep, foundational understanding of the roots of classical constellations is essential.

The seminal book “Love’s Hidden Symmetry”, which draws on various of Bert Hellinger’s lectures and constellations, lays bare Hellinger’s original philosophy and process and is still considered to be the primary text for Classical Constellations practitioners.

 

Essentials of Classical Constellations is a detailed, 12-module journey that reflects on and explains all the basic concepts you need in order to have a grounded understanding of this work, offering you the opportunity to nourish your own tree of knowledge in firm, nutritious soil and support your growth as a constellator.
