Have you ever wondered how your family history could hold the key to you? That's the intriguing concept behind family constellations. 

A family constellation is a method in which people work on their issues in a group, using their family history. During a constellation, the participants or objects, such as dolls, paper, or actual people, represent different family members, parts of themselves, or subjects. 
Emotions such as sadness, fear, and anger often surface during the constellation. This may be because the participant gains new insights into their family history and how it affects daily life.
The energy present within the family constellation plays an important role. The presence of several people creates a field of energy, also called the "field of knowing" (the founder of this term, Bert Hellinger). This field contains information about the participants' histories and subconscious.
At the end of a family constellation, participants often experience a sense of relief and gain profound insights into their issues. This newfound understanding can lead to improved relationships and a sense of harmony within the family. 

In short, energy plays a vital role in family constellations, and the field of knowing is an essential source of information for participants. Participants gain new insights when family constellations, emotions, and feelings surface, creating a field of energy. After the constellation, participants may feel relieved and remember that it is a process that requires time and perseverance.
