yes they are interesting changes, if a bit frightening.
about the cult-like atmosphere, if I had been listening to my instincts I could have avoided. the cultishness comes from the fact that the whole thing was presented in the context of the Osho movement with its attendant pseudo-spiritual practices (sorry, I am very universal but a spade is a spade). it seems osho people do absorb techniques from other contexts as a way of redirecting people to their own guru. what a sham. they were doing such dangerous practices (extensive kundalini raising in the morning and evening in addition to all sorts of primal screaming for long periods). I halfway lost consciousness a few times. I had a strong feeling that the osho element was a no-no for me but in my enthusiasm for constellations, was willing to take the mixed version. Oh well, lessons learned!!!
I find that fascinating. I have located a paper on constellations by an Italian anthropologist. She addresses the Osho connection. I'll send it along in case you might find it interesting.

I'm sorry to hear about the cult-like atmosphere within the family constellations group. I hope there is more benefit than trauma in the long run.
