Have you ever felt that some of the struggles you face in life don’t fully belong to you?
Maybe it feels like you are repeating your parents’ story, carrying your ancestors’ pain, or living a cycle that keeps coming back again and again.
This is where Family Constellations and Vedic Astrology meet each other. Both show us that we are deeply connected to our family system and the invisible energies passed down through generations.
What is Family Constellations?
Family Constellations is a healing method developed by Bert Hellinger.
It helps us see hidden family dynamics — like unspoken grief, unresolved trauma, or broken relationships — that continue to affect us.
For example:
- A person may struggle in relationships because of a hidden loyalty to a parent who was lonely.
- Someone may find it difficult to prosper because an ancestor lost wealth, and the pain is still carried forward.
By bringing these hidden patterns to light, we can restore balance and allow love to flow again.
How Vedic Astrology Connects
In Vedic Astrology, we also look at family karma and ancestral influences. Certain houses and planets show where family patterns repeat:
- 4th house → Mother, roots, emotional inheritance
- 9th house → Father, ancestors, blessings of the lineage
- 8th house → Hidden karmas, family secrets, sudden losses
- Saturn, Ketu, and Rahu → These planets often point toward karmic debts and unfinished family stories
When we study a horoscope, we can see where a person may be unconsciously carrying forward their family’s destiny.
Karmic Baggage & Pitra Dosh
After spending years reading horoscopes, I have noticed that some people are deeply entangled in certain karmic baggage. This causes them to struggle with health, relationships, or finances repeatedly.
One strong indicator is Pitra Dosh — when the 2nd, 5th, 9th, and 12th houses are afflicted. This shows ancestral baggage, where unresolved karmas from the lineage affect the present generation.
Family Constellations also reflects this truth: that certain emotional traumas or unhealed experiences are “downloaded” by family members and carried forward. This is why a person may struggle in the same way their ancestor once did.
The good news is, this karmic baggage and family constellation energy can be healed. In astrology, we often use donations and prayers as remedies to balance ancestral energies.
I also offer Tarot sessions where I give intuitive guidance on:
- What is your role in this ancestral story
- How to release the pattern
- And how to finally become free
Linking Both Together
Family Constellations gives us the experience of seeing these patterns play out.
Vedic Astrology gives us the map of where these influences are likely to show up.
For example:
- If the 8th house is strong or troubled, we may find unresolved ancestral pain. A Family Constellation session can help release it.
- If Saturn shows restrictions in the 4th or 9th house, we may feel burdened by family responsibilities. Constellations can bring clarity and healing.
- If the Rahu-Ketu axis falls in family-related houses, it shows the karmic lessons we are here to complete — and Constellations help us see the root.
- Scorpio and Aquarius placements carry heavy karmic baggage.
Why Use Both Together?
Astrology tells us what and where the issue is.
Constellations show us how it is moving in the family system and allow us to heal it.
When combined, they help us:
- Break repetitive cycles in relationships, money, or health
- Release hidden family burdens
- Invite blessings from our ancestors
- Live with more freedom and authenticity
Conclusion
Family Constellations and Vedic Astrology both remind us of one truth:
We are not separate. We carry the energy of our family system, but we also have the power to heal and transform it.
When we respect the past, honour our ancestors, and consciously work with our karmic map, we create a lighter and freer path for ourselves — and for the generations to come.
