Tuning in into collective memory of your tribe helps you become who you are meant to be. Morphic resonance on the basis of similarity. Great little video by Rupert Sheldrake. His books are fascinating.

I am working on a new project of combining systemic ritual and constellations methodology to create a transformational ceremony for any event - wedding, memorial, birth, naming, moving houses, birthday. I have trained with the Fellowship of Professional Celebrants in Funeral and Wedding ceremonies and will blend in everything I know from my constellations and ritual practice. Watch this space for an announcement of my new website launch! So exciting! 
This is a great way to start your day, to stretch all the muscles, to energise all meridians and to greet Directions and the Sun. Starting in the East, you repeat these moves four rounds of four sides. In the video it is one round of four sides. The words are: Fly like an Eagle, circling the World with Love, give Love to the Earth - receive, give Love to the Great Spirit - receive; [repeat the same starting with the other leg]; give Love to the Brothers and Sisters - receive, give Love to the Brothers and Sisters - receive.
It is a great way to practice gratitude to everything that is, and to exchange Love with the Universe and Mother Earth and all its Beings. Enjoy!
Paint your life
A colour of sun Breathe in vibration Of shining gold Stare in the eye of a crow And say hello To the dawn mystery Holding the unknown When the crow replies With the song of the world Bow with gratitude Release what is old Life is sacred The crow tells My love is reflected In his bottomless eyes And off he flies into the rising sun of India A.S.
A guided mediation I created for women to connect with they ancestors and receive blessings and gifts for them. Every time you do it your ancestors get blessed too, so feel free to add it to your regular practice for ancestral healing.
When we have repeated negative thoughts and strong beliefs about ourselves it could be that we didn't just come up with it as a result of our own experience but it may be a result of a curse. It is a very strong word. It carries many connotations from various eras and traditions. But its weight also emphasises the power our words and intentions hold. Setting aside 'professional' curse creation, most of us have at some point done a little unintentional cursing that might have long term consequences unbeknown to us. A child being absolutely taken by the joy of expressing her love to the divine in a choir singing to just be shut down and publicly shamed for being loud and standing out is cursed to stop singing and will reinforce and grow this message and intention into a believe and an identity of a woman who is just not into signing or having no talent for it. Angry, upset Ex cursing her former partner in a chat with a friend and this friend ‘helping’ by wishing he stays forever alone. A woman whose life choices were dramatically limited by her farther cursing him with all her righteous anger when she fails to achieve her dream. Jealous sibling wishing she were the only child from the depth of her heart. Sometimes this could be a systemic family dynamic, when people remember their grandmother cursing her husband, or grandfather cursing all medical doctors, then in constellations we see the entanglements of the grandchildren with those curse energies and their consequences. Examples are multiple and depending what framework we choose, these could be named differently. It could be called conditioning or programing. It could be shadow work. It could be addressed by a practitioner or by self-help book or in your own deep inner work. It takes so little and most of the time we don’t even notice we do it. We just want to rebalance the unfairness that we experience at that very moment. The quickest way we know is using our voice and words to express a whish that the other person is being put in to their place. The power of our feelings and sincere intentions is huge. We might laugh about it or shrug it off but then remember the moment in your childhood when your heart was shut down by one word, or look, or gesture, or silence. Just to say, we all do it and we need to become aware of it. It has consequences that last decades and take a lot of personal work to undo. As you get angry with somebody and fuming with rage, it is important not to suppress it and it is important not to direct it at anyone around you. As you become aware of your strong powerful feelings, send a little prayer that this rage doesn’t harm anyone but empowers your life transforming into a resource. Intention matters. Awareness is key. - A.S.  South african workshops experience- Unforgettable birthday blessings. We gather to run a ritual I pray, drum and sing habitually; We invite helping spirit of fire flames, We cross many borders of time and space Calling in missing parts of our souls; We enter the dreamworld respectfully Guides watch our back carefully Our essence come back happily We lovingly integrate on return.

Beautiful people magnificent land Creatures after my heart, Blessings to what is unfolding and what lies ahead May this delight be repeated again One day. -AS  
Last days of August I spent in Helsinki taking part and supporting a three days workshop led by Daan van Kampenhout for about eighty Russian speaking participants. Daan first mentioned the possibility of this workshop about a year before and prior to that there were multiple attempts to put something like this together. Russian speaking part of the world has high regard for this work but having the language barrier only few can attend systemic ritual workshops in person. So this opportunity has been long awaited and gathered people from far and wide. Similar to workshops in Paris, there was a dedicated professional interpreter with a good history of working with international teachers. It was important to hold this workshop on a neutral ground as this enabled everyone to be on the same page, being guests in a beautiful country, step out of routine scenery and journey to get to those three days of magic. And that is exactly how it felt – magic. Deep, insightful, poetic, healing process that opened hearts, it focused a lot on seeing goodness, blessings and strength in the ancestral field, retraining our minds that are so used to looking for what is wrong, for a weak link. Focusing on ancestral resources and healing we worked with themes of children and parents, mothers and daughters, symptoms and four levels of the soul, past and future resources, alcoholism and disconnection from ancestors, relationships and money etc. Every day had a different group dynamic and by day three the tension started rising as it became clear that there was no time to address all requests made. Daan held it beautifully constantly staying in touch with higher powers to surrender any control of what was unfolding and letting go of expectations. It also helped to have several rituals that allowed everyone to work on their own issues at the same time. Having a group of almost eighty systemic practitioners holding space for each other for three days made such work possible. Personally it was an incredible honour to be there and to be of service to the land of my ancestors in that way. I believe the fact that I live far from that land and am not invested into it allowed me to contribute freely and completely openly. It touched me deeply to see how many people are doing this work and to have a chance to participate in healing the wounds of the land and ancestors. I pray that more healing is possible, balance restored and loving connections made in all parts of that beautiful part of the world, place of my birth. -A.S. Useful links: Daan Van Kampenhout website Systemic Ritual community in the UK My upcoming systemic ritual in London Anywhere you go, even if just a few steps, you can contribute to the forces of good and bring light to this world. Here is how: imagine that every time your foot touches ground it sends a blessing into earth. As if as you walk you leave footprints of light behind. One step at a time, one blessing at a time from you to mother planet. In the darkness the light shines Please tell me a story Little candle, flickering flame Do tell me your story In the darkness the dark is alive Waiting to tell its story Soul parts are piling up Bursting with their stories Hundreds of years of split souls Stories of pain and survival Stories of human heroic self Stories for those left behind Lighting a candle in the darkest night Opening heart to listen Hearing stories releasing past Breaking the seal of silence Tell me your story Show me your gift Received in the land of darkness Come to the light and be released Back to sea of kindness -A.S. Inspired by this book I am now reading. Deep, touching reflection and personal story of a child of a survivor. So moving. Talking about transgenerational transference of trauma from a very personal perspective.  |
