The influx of the powerful solstice 2012 energy began a new Earth Cycle and continues forward into 2013 (and will linger beyond) . I have noticed many of my clients are dealing with the core issues of why are we on this planet and what is life’s purpose. The question comes in many forms. Most clients are searching for the reason for their sense of hopelessness, helplessness and disconnection with their world.

We all have days when the world doesn’t seem to make sense. If this feeling persists and encompasses all we do, then it is time to discover the reason behind the lack of satisfaction with our life.  For years I felt like an alien on Earth. I just didn’t seem to fit anywhere and I felt no one understood me, especially my family. Many people have carried around the feeling of being displaced or lost since they were children. Some clients tell me they are not from this planet and have never felt at ‘home’ here. Although this may be true, we have all chosen to live on Earth during this exciting time of change and transformation. So what do we do to resolve these feelings of separation?

The core issue for many on this planet deals with the pain we experience with the lessons we have set up to learn in this dense energy. When we enter into the Earth’s density, we can act immediately on our thoughts or take time to assess our actions and contemplate the ramifications before our actions manifest. The more lifetimes we incarnate on Earth, the better decisions we make and our judgment becomes better about what we create or destroy during our lives.

However, this also means we have had lifetimes where we, or our ancestors, have made mistakes. We did not listen to our inner wisdom. We were influenced by fear, money, politics, lust or power when we made choices that caused pain. Some of these choices created karmic debts and adverse family patterns that haunt us and our families for generation. These are the wounds like poverty, abuse, neglect, violence, addiction, ill health, lack of love in relationships and a myriad of other challenges that keep us from our happiness and fulfillment. Escaping our life now will only create additional issues when we incarnate again and for our loved ones now and in the future.

The good news is there are now multiple modalities available to heal these wounds such as Ancestral Lineage Clearing. I believe those of us choosing to live on the planet today are here deliberately to shift the negative energy of the past. We came to heal the old family wounds of our ancestors, clean up our karmic debts, and restore the beauty and creativity all over the world.

Innovations in western and allopathic medicine, mental health, social integration and particularly energy healing have allowed us to make tremendous strides in reducing the physical and emotional pain of living in this density on Earth. Doctors and healing practitioners of all types of medical schools can reduce or eliminate physical dis-ease and distress.We have counselors to aid us in reducing violence, addiction, anger, abuse and resolve relationship issues. Social development has taken place that has ended slavery, reduced starvation for much of the population, aided orphaned and abandoned children, allowed unhappy unions to end without a lifetime of pain and stress and allowed most people to choose their own spiritual path.

We still have a tremendous amount of healing work to do individually, socially and environmentally but we have come a long way. By accepting our lives here on Earth and the gifts and limitations it offers us in our learning process, we eliminate our fear of pain and life. This does not mean our learning ends, it merely means we can choose not to suffer through it. Every time each one of us chooses to heal one of our wounds, a wound of the planet is healed.

Spring has arrived with new life arising on the planet and renewed energy to help us face our challenges and overcome them. We have already overcome the challenges of many lifetimes. The more we heal the greater joy we find in living life here and creating beauty, health and love in our lives. Our task this lifetime is to find our happiness.

Do you think your family is strange? Are you estranged from one or more family members such as your parents, or a brother or sister?

If you talk to friends, neighbors or even strangers, most people will tell you they think their own family is strange, weird or bizarre in some fashion. We all have our  quirks and we generally acquired them from our families.

When I was a child and situations were challenging at home, I remember thinking, “Who put me with these crazy people? I’m going to run away as soon as I’m old enough.” I definitely thought everyone in my family was nuts, particularly my brother and sisters.

Are you one of the people who have had to distance themselves from their families for your own sanity or self-protection? Do your folks drive you crazy with their nagging, expectations, treatment of you as a child even though you reached adulthood decades ago? Did you have a falling out with your sibling over a disagreement because of their politics, religion, sexual preference, or life style?

This is truly sad. Family has a history with you no one else has. Family members know the insides of your emotional life like as no one else. They can support you in your joys and losses like no one else in your life since they know your roots.  But if a wound is a barrier to this closeness, then the wound must be healed.

Over the years I have come to greatly value my family, with their quirks and idiosyncrasies. Even with my father being an alcoholic and my mother with her mental illness, I was given great gifts being raised in  in such an environment. I learned a variety of skills growing up I would not have learned otherwise. Their emotional issues and dis-eases forced me to become independent, self-sufficient and responsible at an early age.

If you are estranged from your family, have you considered the gifts you have received from their strangeness?  I firmly believe the majority of people do the best they know how at any given time in their decision making, particularly when it comes to their children.

Despite all our differences growing up, and the fighting and sibling rivalry, my brother and sisters all loved one another. As soon as an outsider attacked one of us, the rest of us would rush to the rescue.

If you are estranged from your parents or a brother or sister, there are or were  probably good reasons at the time for the break. Sometimes we all need time away from volatile emotional situations that arise from disagreements in which we hold strong beliefs. Sometimes when abuse–physical abuse, drug abuse, alcohol abuse, sexual abuse or mental abuse–is involved, professional intervention is needed.

Many people would like to heal these wounds and get back to the times when they could just go home again in peace and love. Would you like to turn back the clock to the good old days when you actually liked your family and enjoyed the time you spent together?

If it is time for reconciliation and you don’t know how to break through the barrier of family patterns that have driven the family apart for years, Healing Family Patterns may be a tool to enable you and other family members to breach that barrier to a successful family relationship.

By identifying and healing the old family patterns that were established in the early childhood and the unspoken messages transmitted throughout the generations, great healing can take place in all family members. Emotional healing shifts your attitudes and perceptions, so that what previously ‘pushed your buttons’ you understand as a broken message not meant to hurt or punish, and can let go as merely a trite phrase.

After I released a huge issue regarding my mother’s need to criticize me and her negativity, I saw that this was just a defense mechanism she used to keep people from criticizing her and getting attention. When I went to her house the next time and she began ‘picking’ on me  again, I turned to her and said,” Yes, I know I can’t do it as well as you can. But I will make dinner, then you don’t have to.” She went away happy knowing she was acknowledged as the expert and I wasn’t upset. This made family times much easier and there was no more tension around her criticism.

Estrangement hurts all the parties involved. When I talk about my relationship with my family, often other people speak to me enviously of the close relationship I have. They tell of the relatives they haven’t spoken to in 25 years with deep regret in their voices. It is never too late to change your relationship with loved ones in the past and present. Even if your present relationship with family members isn’t functioning well because of secrets, hidden agendas or old family hurts, it is not too late to heal these open wounds. The holiday seasons can be particularly trying for many singles, parents or estranged families.

There are other healing modalities available too. If Healing Family Patterns doesn’t call to you, check out other therapies, both individual, group, family and alternative.  We all need to heal to find happiness, joy and love in our lives. I would love to be a resource for you if the Ancestral Lineage Clearing process calls to you.

Many Blessing for Health, Happiness and Joy,

PS. I will be in England and south Wales the end of April and beginning of May. If you are interested in scheduling a session, attending a ceremony or an event, please contact me at ariann@AncestralLineageClearing.com. I would love to connect with you.

Welcome to the Ancestral Lineage Clearing Site. My purpose is to inform, educate and carry on a conversation with my readers about healing the family patterns that hold us back from finding happiness. I firmly believe we all are destined to be happy on this planet and we forget that principle in all the messiness and negative messages in our lives. Look around you. Life is beautiful. Yes, it is messy. It is chaotic and it changes daily. Once we learn that chaos, change and messiness is part of the order of life and accept and embrace  those concepts then anxiety, depression and stress can fall by the wayside.

If you are interested and intrigued by the idea of changing and healing family patterns then it is probable one of the missions in your life is to heal some aspect of pain, mis-information, dis-ease or barrier you or an ancestor erected in the past for survival purposes. Our lives are a bundle of training, experiences, impressions and subtle concepts and beliefs, we acquire since birth. Families establish multiple patterns that sometimes benefit or interfere with our joy. When these family patterns out grow their usefulness, it is time to change them.

Most often I have found that when an ancestor encountered a challenge in their life and failed to overcome it, the ancestor created an energetic barrier of some type  as a coping mechanism. This coping mechanism was then carried forward by the descendants even if it was no longer useful because it it was functional in the ancestor’s prior lifetime.

For example, if a man or woman was betrayed by a partner he or she loved, they rejected love by all other partners in the future.  They then projected that distrust onto the children who never learned what a loving, trusting relationship could be and perpetuated the behavior throughout their subsequent families until you were raised in a home where love and trust were absent. In order to heal the relationships in your life, the relationships in your family need to be healed.  You may be the one destined to heal the issues of love and trust in family relationships.

The world is now ready for these old, embedded patterns to be changed.  Cultures around the world are carrying historical burdens that have been unresolved for generations. These unresolved heritage patterns have resulted in genocide around the world.  In Rwanda, 60% of the population was decimated by the genocide that occurred there in the 1990s.  The conflict between the Serbs and Croats left the former Yugoslavia devastated.  The dissension between the Democrats and the Republicans in the last election caused much divisiveness in this country which will have to overcome to unite the country in solving its challenges.   Until the spiritual, mental, emotional and physical resolution of these old burdens is removed, peace is difficult to conceive of much less achieve.

These family, cultural and spiritual patterns must be resolved on a personal level before they can be resolved on a planetary basis. My heart has to be at peace before peace can find a place externally. Healing the issues of  hatred,  fear, neglect, abuse, oppression, abandonment, lack of trust, self-worth and fear of God are essential to a heart and head ready and willingly to find peace in the world.

I believe if we heal one at a time, the world will heal too. Healing families is healing the world. I welcome your comments.

In this Holiday Season, may you find love, heath and peace in your life,

Ariann
