Constellations

Introduction

A constellation consists of 2 conflicts active simultaneously on both the left and right sides of the same brain part.
When one conflict is active, one will change behavior to some extent to better cope with the situation. However, if 2 conflicts are active, then the situation becomes dire, after all, the measures to resolve the first conflict have not worked!  Now the behavior change becomes compulsive and can be called a character change. One wants to stop the behavior, but it is not biologically feasible.
One only succeeds when the urgency of the situation has diminished.

Below is a general overview of the constellations described by Dr. Hamer. The constellations and its effects are discussed in detail in the online workshop Bio-logical Behavior and Character.

Constellation of the brain stem: one is unable to think clearly

The brainstem controls the intake, processing and excretion of oxygen, water and food and consists of an incoming part and an outgoing part, see the ring-shaped animal describes in the endoderm. In the brainstem, the ring shape is preserved, see the arrows in the figure below.
With a constellation, there is both an active conflict in terms of the absorption of morsels and in terms of their excretion: you cannot absorb morsels and you cannot get rid of them. So there is a double survival problem.

There are two types:

1. Brainstem constellation, e.g. an active conflict in the duodenum (9) + one in the colon (19).
2. Kidney collecting tube constellation: two active conflicts in the kidney collecting tubes of both kidneys (11 + 12).

Re 1. Constellations of the brainstem

Symptoms: confusion, consternation. One cannot think clearly and walks around like a headless chicken. One no longer has one's own opinion, is unable to think for oneself. 

In nature, this is the best solution: LIFE always strives for the best solution for all concerned. Surrender is then the best choice.

However, in our human world, other (financial) interests often play a main role. It is questionable whether "surrendering to what others say" is the best solution in this case. Often the process of "surviving," becomes a process of "being at the mercy".

Re 2. Constellation of kidney collection tubes.

In practice, the kidney collecting ducts are (almost) always involved. The symptoms of this constellation are:
Confusion AND disorientation with respect to time, place and person. Thinking is switched off.
Confusion between left and right and confusing the names of family members are light variants of this constellation. Difficulty concentrating, poor memory, not recognizing family members or the environment, no idea of the time, the year in which we live or placing events, are more sever variants.

Physical: almost no more urine production, fluid retention.

Biological purpose

Waiting for the sea, your primal environment, your home port, to pick you up again when you are "stranded." Wandering aimlessly gives the least chance of rescue; it is better to wait quietly. Retaining moisture improves the chances of survival.

Severe and/or prolonged existence conflicts (abandonment conflicts) are often wrongly diagnosed as dementia/Alzheimer's. When creating a safe environment and putting the client at ease, the confusion/disorientation can be lifted.

However, separations with short-term memory loss and absences in the EC are often also involved.
As a result, in reality it is usually a combination of ectodermal separation conflicts and endodermal existence of abandonment conflicts.

The symptoms of endodermal confusion/disorientation (thinking is switched off) and ectodermal amnesia (separation conflicts, constellations in the cortex), are difficult to distinguish.
Again, the intimate relationship between the themes of the endoderm and ectoderm becomes apparent.

Constellation of the cerebellum: sensation is eliminated

Double attack conflict, you feel attacked by both your mother or your child and by the a 3rd person (see biological laterality).
For example, a tumor in the right breast (1) and a melanoma on the left side of the abdomen (6).
Brain and organ are crossed from the cerebellum, see brain.

Symptoms

Indifference, Things don't touch you anymore. You feel emotionally "dead," burned out, everything is gray, you don't enjoy anything anymore: dissociative personality disorder.
In mild cases, it is often mistakenly seen as depression or burnout.

Biological purpose

Not feeling the attacks anymore.

Constellations of the cerebral medulla:
overestimating oneself, megalomania

Double self devaluation conflict (SDC), being unable to meet your mother's or child's expectations as well as those of a 3rd person/partner. Feeling totally unworthy, unable to do anything right, having no control over anything.

Symptoms

Overestimating oneself, megalomania. I can do everything, I have a grip on everything, I can hold on to everything, etc.

Biological purpose

Being able to go on with one's own life despite the perceived rejection of "everyone".
Dr. Hamer: "One pulls oneself out of the swamp by one's own hair."

Biological purpose is at the end of the PCL-B. The megalomania persists throughout the entire program.

People with this constellation often do not recognize or acknowledge their self devaluation conflict. This makes it difficult to resolve.

Constellations of the cerebral cortex

Two types of constellations occur in the cerebral cortex: territory constellations and cerebral cortex constellations.

1. Territory constellations

Territory constellations are discussed in detail during the online workshop Bio-logical Behavior and Character. These cause all learning and behavioral disorders and psychological and psychiatric problems (also see ectoderm): autistic constellation, mytho constellation, aggressive constellation, flying constellation, postmortal constellation, incontinence, anorexia, psychoses, schizophrenia, homosexuality, pedophilia, bulimia.
This topic is too complex to discuss further in the context of this website.

2. Constellations of the cerebral cortex

Other constellations in the cerebral cortex (see figure below) with their symptoms are:

• Frontal constellation (1 + 2): frontal fear. Panic for what is in front of someone, either in time, fear for the future of in place, fear for who or what stands in front.
  Numb with fear for what is to come, or what is coming at him.  
  Biological purpose: turning off thinking, waiting for rescue to come. Also see pharyngeal ducts and thyroid ducts.
• Constellation of the motor cortex (3 + 4): compulsive movements, tics, spasms, gilles de la touret syndrome. Biological purpose: the movements allow you to get away. This is to compensate for the conflict theme "being stuck," not being able to make a certain movement. Also see muscle innervation.
• Constellation of the sensory cortex (5 + 6): poor memory or loss of short-term memory. ADD (in children), onset of dementia (in the elderly). Biological purpose: forgetting the separation, also see epidermis. With prolonged hanging conflict with many relapses: alzheimer's, dementia.
• Constellation of the post-sensory cortex (7 + 8): loss of medium-term memory to complete amnesia, alzheimer's, dementia. Biological purpose: forgetting the ugly, painful separations. Also see periosteum.
  The effect is more dramatic than that of the constellation of the sensory cortex.
• Constellation of visual cortex (9 and/or 10 + 11and/or 12): pursuit delusion, paranoia. Biological purpose: being able to flee in time. Also see retina and vitreous body.
• The combination of the frontal constellation (1 + 2) and a constellation of the visual cortex (9 and/or 10 + 11 and/or 12) means that the person has no way out: there is a danger coming toward him that he cannot avoid, but there is also something or someone threatening him from behind. The person is trapped.
