I have been editing The Knowing Field international

constellations journal since 2004, reading and correcting other

people’s writing. During this time I have gathered a lot of

information from all these various authors and it has been a very

satisfying experience watching the constellations field expand and

develop during this time.

More recently, several friends and acquaintances have asked

me why I didn’t write my own book. So I started to think about

it. What could I write about that hadn’t already been said? A

substantial number of books have been written on constellation

work. I thought I didn’t have anything original to offer. However,

as I considered it more deeply, I realised that the majority of the

books written are really aimed at people already involved with

constellations. Very few exist which are geared towards the ordinary

person in the street who knows nothing at all about the therapy

world, constellations or any other kind of alternative approach.

People who will probably never get to the point of asking for help,

taking that all-important step forwards. What could I offer them

that might give them some inspiration? A new thought? A new

idea? A new image maybe?

Then I thought about the visualisations I have done and how

they get straight through to a person’s soul in a way that explaining

about the work never can. Having benefited so much myself

from these visualisations (mainly coming from Bert Hellinger), I

know how powerful they can be and I hope that their power will

reverberate through you as a reader. So then I came up with the

idea of writing a book accompanied by a number of visualisations

so the reader could also absorb the work through their

right brain – the image-making, intuitive part, which for me, has

a more direct route to the soul.

So here is the sum total of these musings. I hope you enjoy

it. If you feel sufficiently touched by what is written that you

feel brave enough to go and do the work for yourself, I invite

you to do so. There are many people now offering this work. You

just need to key in Hellinger or Constellations (minus stars) on

Google.

However, I’m also hoping that for those of you who either

don’t feel brave enough or can’t afford to attend a workshop or

individual session, this book will go some way towards helping

you to make some changes in your lives. ( Barbara Morgan)
