In Part 22 of 28 Constellation Gong, Sigong tested us on the names of the constellations and their meanings, taking turns. This was challenging and fun, like studying together. It really helped to consolidate the picture of the whole sky and it was lovely to see how we had all become so at ease with what was so daunting in the beginning days of the seminar.
Polishing was very helpful in clearing up so many tricky moments of changes of directions and clarifying which foot to start on in various parts.
Finally, after connecting with all the constellations then working on the energy, smoothing the channels, we come to a beautiful finish with flying around the whole sky. We end, like coming back home, circling in to the Dantian, circling out and slapping the Huántià o points, then flicking away any negative energy and finally paying respect to heaven. Such a satisfying and beautiful ending which seems to honour ourselves and all the constellations which give us so much.
Thank you Sigong for yet another wonderful seminar on such an amazing form that has so much powerful imagery, deep connection and understanding to support us in growing stronger.

It’s always a great feeling to complete the last part of a form! Very convenient to practice the Constellations before the instructor course, too.
Thank you, Sigong.

Thanks for all the Seminars, it feels good to complete the form, and with all the online notes to help complete the picture. Look forward to polishing next time. Carly
It feels really great to complete this amazing and challenging form! I learned so very much. Thank you, Sifu, for your patience guiding us all and for the wealth of wisdom you taught us about the 28 Constellations. I really enjoyed every part of it. Manuela
Was very good to go over all the names and meaning of 28 constellations, amazing to be able to remember them, given how difficult it seemed at the beginning. Great to finish the form, I had learned half of it many years ago, and was looking forward to learn the second half. Thank you Sigong. Christine
It was great to finish 28 constellation Gong. What a complicated but powerful form! The lectures and background have also been really fascinating. Such a profound skill. Thank you Sifu. Peter A
It is great to go through the whole form now that it is complete. 28 Constellation Gong is a very good form for strengthening the body and connecting with nature and the constellations. It is a very good feeling to finally complete the form. The ending of the form is a bit difficult but looking forward to getting better at it. Thank you Sifu
