Dear Dan,
Thanks for this important third part. For some patients diagnosis of
breastcancer is a relief. They know the dead is near and they agree with the
dead.
Best wishes,
Maria

Maria, to your two parts, I suggest adding a third, the healing container.
The presence of the dead among the living often has the energy of a vacuum,
sucking loved ones into the whirlpool of entropy. The pain of living and the
inevitability of dying makes getting things over with an appealing option,
especially in the face of a grim diagnosis. A Constellation often has the
effect of switching the direction of the wind. Instead of feeling sucked
towards death, the presence of loving, adoring ancestors creates a sweet
breeze propelling the client towards the horizon of a long, healthy life.
To my understanding, this is more than a trick of the imagination. The
ancestors have presence within and surrounding us. In Chinese medicine they
are an essential and very real element of Qi. From my own client case
histories, re-establishing a healthy relationship with one's ancestors
supports a healing container in which medical treatments and healing
practices can gain strength and efficacy.
