“The greatest tragedy of the family is the unlived lives of the parents.”
— C.G.Jung
Family relations — happy, sad, repressed? What do your feelings tell you about your family relations?
The “family” indicated here may be your blood family or your spiritual family — those to whom you are connected by inner ties but are not blood family — and also your inner family, the family of sub-personalities that live within you.
The family photo here is obviously posed to show us an idealized image, but what’s going on beneath the public surface? Families are living systems, and each personality is like an organ of the larger body.
Consider this an auspicious time to take a fearless and compassionate look at the roles being played by each organ in the body of your various families.
