Avatar and the Ancestors

Avatar Home Tree

Avatar was an amazing movie experience, but what really surprised and thrilled me was the story line of the people that inhabit the extraordinary planet Pandora. The Na'vi culture is based on a deep connection to the creative life force and their ancestors on which they rely for support and guidance. In the movie "The Home Tree" can be destroyed and they can carry on, but if they loose "The Ancestor Tree" that will mean they perish. The Na'vi people are in deep resonance with the ancestors, without that connection their civilization ceases to exist. The respect they hold for all life and being seen is so similar to our experiences of Constellation Work that someone suggested our healing sentence "I see you" was taken from that movie. Of course this deep and simple statement has long been a cornerstone of the work. To be seen and taken in just as you are is a key turning point in a Constellation.
It is very exciting that this message is being seen and received on a global level.
What is disturbing is that the Pandora world and its culture is apparently so foreign to a whole generation of young people that is causing deep depression and suicidal thoughts requiring care and support. As I reflect on our generations part in this response from the young, I am aware of the implications of our disconnection to our parents and our ancestors. The pop psychology of the last 20 -30 years has been to" cut the cords to Toxic Parents", take a new name, go study with some other culture and pretend we are free from our past. Of course this is not possible. Over and over the Constellations reveal the strength that comes from taking our parents and ancestors deep into our hearts just as they are. When we do the Constellation Work in" the knowing field" we have the remarkable opportunity to direct access to a truth, and a voice for those that came before, just as in the movie.

In the Constellation Work we have a primary experience of Unity, a connection to the Unified Field that connects all, and is seeking inclusion at all times.

The future is now.
Your Ancestors want you to thrive, what are you waiting for?
