Yuletide is Upon Us

The days are shrinking into night, the bustle of elections, debates and impending ‘newness’ is everywhere. Instability and fear seem to be the major driving forces in our world as we hurl into the dark. How do we do this?!

It’s SO easy to lose sight of, to forget, the Promise.  The Promise of the ages, that there is a dawn before us. The Light will return and the possibility of newness,  the unimagined, is nigh.  We have fallen into the collective amnesia that pretends we are powerless, that we can only wait and see what happens, and then succumb.

The chaos of politics, environment, and social unrest is a fact, undeniable. What is NOT scripted, what is not predestined is how we choose to engage with unprecedented events. We are at a threshold, as with all Solstices, a change of Order. This new opportunity will demand the best of us, the fullest part of our expression. The only ticket required is a willingness to proceed in good faith; to respond as wholly as we can.

In order to show up fully, we need to know ourselves; our gifts, strengths, shadows, and our blind spots (or at least entertain the fact that we might have them!)  Astrology is one map of many that illuminates and reveals these treasures as they were when we were born. It not only gives us a snapshot of our birth-plan but also enables us to see where the cycles of change and growth have landed us in the present moment. Just as our lives move in cycles and we grow and learn through lessons of experience it can be enormously helpful to see ‘where we are now’ and what lies before us as we engage with the forces of society and Nature.

Contact me for an Astrology Reading as a tool for self-awareness and empowerment and a strategy for moving forward fully.

Gift certificates are available for Birth Chart readings or a Top Up and glimpse into where you are best resourced now.

Consolidating Change – End of Early-bird Enrollment draws near

There are still a couple of places available for Representatives at the Early bird price.

What IS a Representative in the realm of Family Constellations?

Family Constellations, describes a process of exploring and gaining insight into our life’s challenges by way of understanding the hidden dynamics of family patterns and the way they effect us.  Exploring our personal dynamics is greatly aided when, working in a group, we are able to nominate someone to ‘represent’ a particular person or challenge. When you accept the role of representative, you gain access to the information that is held by the energy of the person or challenge in question. This embodiment enables a conversation and added awareness of the often hidden or tangled strands of the family dynamic. These hidden strands in our family of origin can then find themselves expressed by challenges that we face in our own lives.

A representative is an invaluable aid in articulating unconscious aspects of our internal dynamics.

Why would I choose to do this as opposed to being an Issue Holder?

The very act of participation, by association, will have a direct affect on your own process. In effect, you can ‘piggy-back’ on the central issue holder’s inquiry. MAGIC!

Choosing to act as a Representative is first and foremost, a service to the entire ‘system’. Without fail, when you are chosen to act as representative in another person’s enquiry,  you will have conscious or unconscious links to the question at hand.

Come along and join us, for healing and for growth!

Stardust – An Introduction to Astrology

Amidst the chaos of political, environmental and societal change, uncertainty mounts, camps are chosen and some of us attempt to erect barricades. Astrology offers an opportunity to pull back from the binary of ‘us and them’ by illuminating and describing many, many different options for understanding and appreciation of ourselves and ‘the other’. This understanding fosters a sense of choice… and with that freedom.

 Join us as we draw back the shade on an ancient language that offers insight, guidance and a glimpse at potential. Access the building blocks of ‘the long view’ and come to understand the perfection in every moment as it leads to the next.

The series takes place over six consecutive weeks.

 During the course you will gain an understanding of the basic building blocks of astrology through language, symbol and myth. We will explore the planets, signs, houses, aspects, and Nodes of the Moon.

No previous knowledge of astrology is required, a sense of humour and willingness to join in the conversation is a must!

Consolidating Change

Not just any Constellation Workshop!

Following a successful two-day event this past summer, I am delighted to announce another upcoming collaboration with Elaine R Harris and myself.

In this one-day workshop, Elaine and I will be combining our skills to create a unique and exciting opportunity to marry Constellation work with Homoeopathy in support of the constellation process.

Homoeopathic remedies offer grounding to the issue holder as they encounter new awarenesses, enabling them to consolidate their experience and take it forward in a sustainable way.

About The Event

Saturday 9th of November – 9:40am for 10am start to 5:30pm 

Be@One Wellbeing Centre 1, Audley Road, Saffron Walden, Essex, CB11 4JB

Bring your Personal or Business Issues to be Constellated in a powerful workshop

with Elaine R Harris and Marlow Purves.

BREAKING PATTERNS – CHANGING BEHAVIOUR

Sometimes we have recurring patterns in our life, either personal or professional, where nothing we do seems to make a change and we are left wondering where we are ‘going wrong?’ We feel we ‘should’ be able to fix whatever it is at issue and still the solution continues to evade us, regardless of what we try to do or how hard we ‘search’ for the answer.

The Family and Business Constellations process explores these kinds of life challenges in a different way – Using a wider, more systemic lens, it looks at the individual or business as part of a greater system of family, culture, environment and conscience, rather than seeing it as something that functions as a purely independent unit.

The Question/Issue Holder – the one who wishes to take a deeper look into their personal or organisational dilemma. There is often more than one Question Holder in each group and thus a Question Holder may also act as a Representative in another’s Constellation.

The Representatives or Resources – the ones who offer themselves in service of the Field of the Question Holder, to represent people or elements within the Question Holder’s system. Taking part in other people’s constellations as a Representative is entirely optional and you are not obliged to accept the invitation when asked. It must be noted though, that it is very common that another’s work can touch you as deeply as your own, and even just being a witness to another’s constellation can be a powerful experience…..

EXPANDING CAPACITY FOR LIFE

For more information please contact Elaine at elaine_harris852@msn.com

Question holder places are limited to 10 so if you would like your Question Constellated please book early to avoid disappointment.

Total places are limited to 12, so plenty of room if you want to come along and be a Representative – you can often get just as much out of doing that as you can from being a Question Holder.

Not Just Any Constellation Workshop!

‘m delighted to announce that I will be joining Elaine R Harris to offer a two-day workshop combining Family Constellations and Homoeopathy.

Family Constellations is an elegant system of revealing and healing issues that often find their roots in familial or systemic patterns. Challenges in relationships, the fulfillment of one’s purpose or even just connecting with one’s place in the world can sometimes be a reflection of an unconscious pattern held within the dynamic of the larger (family) system.

Constellations provide a process of discovering and bringing awareness to the issue and is a powerful tool for healing whatever it is that blocks us. The employment of homoeopathic remedies can serve the process by addressing latent trauma, shock or grief and can also aid in stabilizing the new awareness as it emerges.

Come and join Elaine and me to discover the unique healing combination of Constellations and Homoeopathy.

10am-6pm
July 27/28

Almost Imbolc

‘And the Seasons, they go round and round…’ Joni Mitchell

Here we are, the light is definitely returning, the birds are singing and chattering in their mad WAKE UP! song and we are reminded that new life is burgeoning. Imbolc, (February 2) the first stirrings of Spring.

This is announcement time, a traditional time in the Old Calendar where dedications and declarations of intent are made. Emerging from the blistering winter winds, the deep sleep of the dark, there are stirrings and efforts to reach up and forward into the newly emerging light.

So, in keeping with this time, I am announcing the commencement of two courses in the coming months.

One of my all time favourite series to share. Homoeopathy, even after almost 30 years of practice, is close to my heart. This introductory course is called Life’s Resource because as people with bodies, we are well advised to develop familiarity and awareness of the owner’s manual! Centred around 36 common first aid remedies, the series will also cover basic homoeopathic philosophy (WHY we prescribe remedies) and illustrate the use of remedies with genuine cases. The aim of the series is to enable you to feel confident to prescribe in acute situations. We’ll cover, headaches to hang-overs, fevers to injuries and common childhood ailments.
