Subject: RE: [ConstellationTalk] Honoring Mother Earth
Hi all
For the purposes of this group we are not asking anyone to separate
spiritual work from constellation work. We are simply asking people to keep
the topic on constellation work. It really isn't that difficult to
understand. If the post says nothing about constellation work even if it is
a beautiful spiritual comment it is still off topic. I know some people
simply make the mistake of assuming the connection is obvious. This might be
the case for Barbara's lovely recent posting about the old woman and the
Hopi nation. All anyone needs to do is to explicitly join the dots and show
how the post is related to constellation work. If you can't do that then it
is safe to assume that the post does not belong here. I hope that is clear.

Anutoshf, thanks for this heartfelt comment. I too have a hard time
separating constellation work from spiritual work. As a matter of fact I
think if you go deep enough with constellation work you must have a deeper
framework that includes the soul and soul healing.
Warmest regards,
Ellen

Thank you Chris.
Important for me to let you know that even if i sometimes disagree, it is in
no way a disrespect to you nor friends in this forum.
It has all been an enrichment in so many ways and having to stretch where
needed for me is related to this work.
This stretching starts with us and this work for me is a byproduct of this
willingness.
My contribution is always just my opinion and is in no way an order.
It is beautiful that we each can sing our own song and dare to be naked here
amongst each other and even if it sometimes go out of tune, hey what the
heck!
I must admit that i have a difficulty differentiating what is constellation
work and what is not because this work is about LIFE.
Both Emoto's suggestions and mention about Libya then was very much with us
during that time period when it appeared on CT.
Okay i will try my best to be a good girl so that i can be part of this
group! wink!
On a different note, i hope to see most of you at the next USA Conference in
San Francesco!
Love and laughter

I have followed this conservation with great interest and respect Chris'
observation that our discussion should be constellation related.
I would like to make a gentle suggestion that when talking about other
cultures with different spiritual practices that we be very sensitive
adopting these practices. I recently heard the stories of threewe
Paiute/Shoshone women who talked about their ancestral trauma and
destruction of their culture caused by my ancestors as they settled this
country. Only when we are invited by tribal elders to experience a Native
American ceremony, powwow, or blessing can learn about them and even then
would need the permission of the tribal elders to talk about theexperience.
excellent
Daan Van Kampenhout's book, Images of the Soul, is a good way to learn
about Shamanism and FC work. His practice of shamanism is also an
way to experience the grounded and natural experiences with animals andthan
nature without infringing on the cultural practices of indigenous peoples.
I honor Mother Earth in my own way which is much more meaningful to me
saying the words.><mailto:ConstellationTalk%40yahoogroups.com>

This forum was set up for conversation about constellation practice. If it
deteriorated into an exchange of platitudes based on various people's
spiritual or political belief systems it would no longer be serving the
purpose for which it was set it up. However constellation work does have a
genuine spiritual aspect. This forum needs to remain open to that. My
concern is about people sending in posts about emoto or Libya or whatever
with no attempt to relate it to constellation work.
If someone wants to set up another email group to discuss broader
spirituality they are quite welcome to do so. However as founder and
moderator of this group I will defend the mandate of this group.
Accordingly
from now on if anyone sends posts that are not related to constellation
work
I will place them on moderation. That means I will read their posts before
they go to the group. If their posts are not related to constellation work
they will be rejected. In the spirit of transparency I will not get in the
way of any ongoing discussion of this decision.

Hello Everyone,
It might be timely to ask ourselves, are we a professional forum, a
spiritual collective or some combination of both ?
Warm Regards
