Healing Art Constellations

About
It listens to the rhythm of life and the rhythm of love.
It receives its pulse from this beat.
When we are attuned, we hear this rhythm with our heart;
we resonate in harmony with it.’ ~Bert Hellinger
Within the context of Healing Art Constellations there are different modalities. There is an expansive field of awareness opening with unlimited possibilities. I have a growing sense of wonder when I listen to practitioners with a heart, mind, spirit consciousness realising how much more the human being can and does experience.
My Experience
My journey has developed from taking the Ancient Wisdom classes beginning with The Nature of the Soul for nearly twenty years. This in conjunction with well over a decade studying and working in the morphogentic field with Systemic Constellations. Then in the years of and following the pandemic, I have enjoyed practicing as a medium for the spirit world. All this is encapsulated by the exquisite joy of recently becoming a High Priestess of the Craft that has evolved from a year in my thirties living in mystical Wales after completing an art degree in London. Finally, all has always been grounded in a meditation practice.
Healing Constellations
In a group or one on one, we return to a state of innocence. In a dynamic process the individual, the family, and/ or the group are brought to have greater understanding for one another. The client recognizes patterns (usually hidden) in her/his/their relationships that consistently block progress. Artistic expression, symbolic and / or group representation clarify a reaction to specific, difficult life events. The experience is usually cathartic. It has a ripple effect on those who belong to the client's family and / or group system. Growth beyond self and societal limiting beliefs blossoms.
Healing Art Constellations
Kate developed constellations using the creative process to open deeper streams of an individual's psyche. She facilitates the creative voice with visual art and / or poetry to reveal inherent personal dynamics. People learn about themselves and their gifts, while finding fresh ways to relate to their families and their group. Eventually, united with others an understanding of personal issues is seen to be a part of a larger family, group dynamic and a universal pattern in all walks of life.
What are you looking for?
Relief from a recurring and troubling issue.
Everything belongs; all of it. Rage, delight, fear, euphoria, hate, compassion, alienation, community, anxiety, exuberance, depression, happiness, illness, vibrancy, shame, vulnerability and so on. Emotion and mental states become patterns of behavior. As the search for answers and a common desire to heal, constellations zoom in on the specifics to unravel a resolution.
It is as humbling as it its freeing!
Kate loves sharing the experience with you!
What is a mediumship reading?
Grief comes to us when a dear person in our life passes from the physical world.
There can be great relief from the grieving with a mediumship reading which evidences that the one who has passed lives on in an eternal, non-physical spirit form.
The medium perceives the spirit presence of a deceased person, who is connected to the 'sitter', who has asked for a 'reading'. The spirit presence is recognized by the medium through the claires of seeing, hearing, feeling, and knowing. These are perceived in an uplifted conscious state, The medium communicates their perception in real time. Frequently the 'sitter' senses their loved one simultaneously. The medium verifies this with evidence about who they were when alive. Evidence varies radically and can be be a shared memory, description of their appearance, their personality, their work, family, and friendships.
It is an honor and a joy to give mediumship readings.

Artist Statement
My work expresses my inward journey with an awe for natural beauty in our living world. Beauty, which arises from meditative depths exemplified in the 'wings' collection (heavenward) and ecstatic heights (embrace). The multiplicity of evolving biological forms in Nature is astounding. Too, the terrible beauty felt in tragic patterns of human behavior (perpetrator victim 1, 2 ). Ideas emerge in the mind's eye, develop in sketches, and inevitably take on their own life in the sculpture.
I have always found birds fascinating. The obvious metaphor of flight and freedom is beneath the surface in 'wings' collection: spiritual flight and creative freedom. Each piece represents a particular emotional experience towards these aspirations. Some experiences are far from free; the process of creating them is liberating.
'heart petals' collection represents our human heart which evolves as we grow, opening, reaching out, bursting with energy. Several pieces may be set up as fountains to delight the eye with the constant watery flow over colorful, glazed ceramics. Each is a moment in time implying timelessness.
'energy in form' series is expressionistic, metaphoric, and abstract. (aqua sway) and (whorl) evoke energy rising while also mimicking waves in the ocean. Speed and power represented in (grace) and (play) takes us through the horse's paces. Might and agility in the largest mammal on earth, the Antarctic blue whale, is embodied in ( ocean blues), (midnight swim) and others. Capturing movement in silent 3D is as exciting as it is fascinating.
Enjoy!

The following questions are intended to jog your memory about important events that may have shaped and affected your family system. Character and personal interests are not useful in this work. Events, which have an impact on the lives of the people involved, do have significance.
PRESENT FAMILY: spouse, siblings, children, former partners and children from former marriages/ relationships.
FAMILY of ORIGIN: your siblings, parents, uncles & aunts, grandparents, and in memorable or tragic cases, great grandparents, and premarital partners.
Is there anything that happened in your present family or your family of origin that was tragic or unusual? (a family story which goes back generations is relevant)

AFTER A CONSTELLATION
By participating in a constellation, we most likely have received new insights, healing images, and a feeling for the soul's language. This work has a deep impact on the soul and may give our lives a new direction. It’s important to accept and balance the benefits of the work, which takes time. Be patient. The persona’s mind thinks quickly. The soul moves more slowly. Its advisable to think less about the change brought about in the Knowing Field. We want to understand what happened, of course. Beyond that, the best approach is to allow the movement of the soul.
People process in different ways:
* In a quiet, sacred space at home or in nature, sit with the process. Remember what occurred during the constellation and actively receive it. Welcome the new information into your being. With as much ease as possible let the pain go. It is usual to feel ‘worse’ as the full depth of an experience opens up. This fosters complete acknowledgement and finally healing.
* Light a candle, and looking into the flame recall the meaningful moments during the constellation. Open your heart to their import.
Write a poem, paint, sing a song, which captures the essence of the experience. Capture the feeling and the message.
* Be gentle. Soak in a bath with Epsom and salts. Take a shower and wash away anything, which doesn’t belong to you. Cleanse and refresh yourself.
* Meditate on the constellation to glean what is vital and transcendent. Bring your attention to the healing, revealing, and liberating aspects of the constellation.
* Take a walk in nature, by the ocean, in the hills, in a park. Let the images, which arise from the constellation repeat, belong and speak to you. Some parts will fade. This is normal.
* Before sleep, ask to continue the work of the constellation in your dreams, and for resolution to be nurtured.
It may be helpful to call your facilitator, me, after a constellation. I will not explain what happened but guide the process for you to benefit from the profound shift in perspective. As much as possible, welcome in the new, however unfamiliar and strange it may seem. Then real change may take place. It is recommended that we do not talk about our constellation work for at least 40 days to let it "take root" inside us, allowing it to grow stronger. When you do talk about it remember to reflect on the resolution rather than any conflict that may have arisen to reassert the growth in your soul.
