Ancestral Curse Healing or Pitr Dosha Healing
(वंश-वृक्ष हीलिंग यानी पित्र दोष निवारण)
Family Journeys: Families travel in a group. Lifetime after lifetime, these souls meet each other in different bodies and roles. Sometimes as friends, enemies, parents, siblings, grandparents or children. Teaching each other important and pending life lessons, which are part of our life script. That is how we can help our Family tree evolve.
We all inherit certain things from our ancestors; that could be good fortunes, looks, traits, property, legacy, name, fame and goodwill. Thus, we not only inherit the Family DNA of our ancestry but also its Karmic DNA, and yes, the unfinished life lessons, like learning discipline, detachment, empathy and humility, or overcoming anger, arrogance, pride, greed, lust and criminal tendencies.
But then, we also inherit our ancestors’ misfortunes, curses, illnesses and blocks related to relationships and financial issues from our ancestors. We end up paying for the Karmic choices they made. Lessons they refused to learn, and karmic baggage they refused to acknowledge, learn from or clear. These blocks trickle down the family tree as Generational Trauma and Blocks, and trouble generation after generation till one generation decides to heal, make amends and find closure to the wounds of previous generations. We fail to understand that the obstacles we come across are there to help us grow. In some families, despite putting in all our efforts, we don’t get success in any of our endeavours. Strange ailments and suffering plague families, generation after generation, with no respite. Till the origin karma is healed. Usually, people have tried all healing and medical possibilities before realising the need to go deeper into family history.
No matter how far you run away, we can never run far enough to not be affected by our family tree karma and its lessons. As the saying goes, “A fruit never falls far away from the tree.”
Some trauma and dysfunctional patterns don’t begin with us but rather from our previous generations. We inherit them. This includes lessons they could not learn, hurts they could not heal, and crimes they could not hide, like the crimes committed by our previous generations. No matter how much we try to keep things a secret, it surfaces like boils now and then, revealing our suppressed tragedies, crimes and abuse. “A family is as sick as its secrets.”

But then, why do we have to suffer the karma done by our ancestors?
The truth is that no one suffers without karma. God never makes a mistake. The law of Karma is always precise. Only souls who have matching karma to the sufferings or the lessons, take birth in a particular Family tree will take birth in it. For example, a woman who had harmed kids in past lives and had curses of not having her own kids married into the family tree, which had curses of one of the daughters-in-law not having children. A man who had ruined the businesses of several people in various past lives was born in a family tree with severe financial blocks as a part of karmic clearance – this is called Karmic Matching or Resonance.
These kinds of blocks are often referred to as “Pitra Dosha” (पितृ दोष), Generational or Ancestral blocks.
Each year, during Pitra Paksha (the Fortnight of Ancestors – Bhadrapada month, Krishna paksha, Prathama tithi to Amavasya – 16 lunar days), marks the time when we pray for the peace of our ancestors and thank them for their blessings. It’s a ritual we have been following since time immemorial, and every tradition has some version of it. But some of us still suffer from ‘ Pitr Dosha’ or Ancestral Curse. The reason is that sometimes, the souls of our ancestors need more than offerings or prayers to be at peace. They need Karmic Healing. So that they can be freed from their karmas and curses that have an impact on the entire family tree. Healing Pitra Dosha strengthens the whole Family Tree.
“We’re all ghosts. We all carry, inside us, people who came before us.”― Liam Callanan, The Cloud Atlas.
Methodology
Family Journeys is a unique psychically-guided journey through the Family tree, created by Priyanka and Abhishek with their Spiritguides, which can help you find the root cause of blocks, Ancestral curses and black magic and remove such blocks through prayer, forgiveness and healing with Spirit Guides and Angels.
Interestingly, souls who join the family tree have their own karmic baggage. That is why they have karmic matching or resonance with the dysfunction. For example, a woman who was married in a family where every second daughter-in-law had fertility issues or special children herself had past lives related where she either killed children or caused the death of children to have a karmic block related to children.
It is a heartwarming experience to witness ancestors coming down to help their descendants. Revealing old truths in family history that now need to be released. Family imbalance, misdeeds, and crimes of forefathers need acknowledgement and possible correction. Often, ancestors come back into the family to help and also to bear the consequences of their karma.
It’s like reviving the family tree and nurturing it to grow and prosper so that the souls of our ancestors can rest in peace, enabling present and future generations to live in peace and experience abundance.
“People will not look forward to posterity, who never look backwards to their ancestors.”― Edmund Burke

If your family has a clear repeating pattern and limiting beliefs showing up across generations, like:
- Early or unnatural and sudden deaths.
- Genetic or mental disorders or illnesses
- Specific ailments like early diabetes. Multiple cancer deaths in the family tree.
- Infertility issues/Deaths of newborns or of one child. Family Tree ending – no sons.
- Only one child survives or flourishes.
- Financial blocks, career blocks, or not flourishing. Property stuck in litigation, Rental Properties do not get picked – (curses on Samriddhi, abundance and money), One generation does well, then the next generation ruins it.
- No Marriage/ late marriage /conflicts in marriage (curses on Dampatya Sukha (Marital Bliss)
- Only daughters or sons of the Family tree suffer similarly over generations (Curses on Santaan sukha, happiness from offspring). Daughters are stuck in bad marriages. Sons are stuck in failing careers.
- Family fights, feuds, anger, violence, excessive animosity, debauchery, addictions, disharmony, litigations, estrangement, coldness, and a splintered family tree…(Maansik Sukha)
- Financial losses that are unexplained.
How do I know if my Family Tree has Pitr Dosha?
Most people get this information from their Vedic Astrologer because in each horoscope, there is a House of Ancestors or Pitr. That gives us a clue.
However, another simple way is what we recommend: Look for any dysfunctional patterns repeating in your Family Tree over generations – Paternal or Maternal side. If you find it, the answer is yes. If both trees have issues, then start with the tree with the maximum problems, like early deaths or health emergencies.
Read some interesting Case Studies here...
Requirements for the Session:
1. The Family Tree Chart: Draw a Family Tree or Genealogy chart of 2 more generations, or from where a problem pattern has started. Sometimes, both the Maternal and Paternal sides have problems, as only one tree can be healed at a time. Choose the side with the most dysfunctional patterns or the urgent issues to be healed first.

Draw the Family Tree chart as per the image above. You can take the help of elders in the family or consult places where genealogy records are preserved traditionally, for example, Haridwar, Varanasi, Gaya, Pehowa, Trimbakeshwar, and Kurukshetra. – Make sure you have names of wives as well, especially if an ancestor had two wives, had affairs, usurped property, or committed any crime. If there are deceased siblings or unnatural deaths in your ancestry, make sure you mention them. Do this with reverence for each and every ancestor. We have no idea whose blessings or good karma might help you and the generations to come. The chart can be drawn simply on A4-sized paper or digitally, on an XL sheet, etc. We also have an XL sheet format, which is easy to fill in, with photos. Download here. – Each of us carries four family trees—our father’s maternal and paternal lines, and our mother’s maternal and paternal lines. Healing begins with whichever side holds the strongest block.
2. Names and Pictures: Names and Pictures of all present family tree members, parents and grandparents, along with all siblings and their spouses, and cousins as far up as possible. Deceased or alive. Mention the entire tree, even if you are not on talking terms, distant from a part of the tree or feel others are not important. All deserve healing, and who knows from whose god karma you might get help. Often, when people are getting a distant part of their family tree healed, they find that an important block that they were suffering from was coming from there. Be generous, and your ancestors will help you! As we often find, some weren’t able to cross over due to difficult life or death. Photographs of at least 1 or 2 deceased grandparents are important, as they only guide us, along with our own Spiritguides. – If you don’t have portraits of ancestors, you can find them in old weddings that they might have attended.
3. List of Patterns: Make a list of any dysfunctional patterns, illnesses or anomalies coming down the generations. We have provided a long list above, but it is by no means exhaustive. Anything weird, out-of-the-ordinary pattern, ritual or taboo you might have noticed in your family can be a valuable clue.
4. Family Secrets: Every dysfunctional Family tree has its skeletons and crimes of our forefathers, which get hidden, suppressed or lost, but the karma can never go away! Like in a family tree, no one could have baigan-ka-bharta (eggplant mash). That led to a horrifying family secret generations ago, and much-needed healing could happen. Another family abandoned their ancestral village overnight, many generations ago, but never shared the dark secret behind it with their descendants. – Don’t be in a hurry, take your time to get as many details as possible. This could be vital during the healing. Especially any taboo stories, events or family secrets, like murders, crimes, abandoned or abused women, especially sexual abuse or rape, old parents or children abandoned, properties usurped etc. These are all classic signs of Pitr Dosha. – A family is as sick as its secrets.
5. Kul Devi or Kul Devta (Patron deity): Every surname represents the kul (कुल) or family you belong to. These are your roots or ancestry. Every surname has an origin, and the deities or Spiritual Guardians, the originators or early members, too. They are called the Kul devi or Kul devta (कुलदेवी या कुलदेवता). The name of the family deity, Kuldevi or Kuldevta (Patron Guardian or God or Goddess), can be valuable during healing as we invoke them to bless and heal the Family tree that runs in their name and patronage. Plus, you can find the name and location of their main shrine in the ancestral village. It can be a parish church or a family shrine. – Every surname has its origin and thus has a spiritual head. Even if you are not using a family name, you are still a part of a family tree, and when you reach out to your ancestral Guardians, they will help you!

Step-by-Step Guide to a Family Tree Healing Session
- Create the Family Tree chart on blank paper or XL sheet format, with as many details and expanse as possible you can. Collect all pics and stories, and list out all dysfunctional family patterns. So that we can do our preliminary study.
- Next, you make the payment of the fee as mentioned above, and thereafter, we schedule your session.
- Often, we create a temporary WhatsApp group where you can share the Family tree chart and all the key pics, and we share Zoom links.
- The Session is often done jointly by Abhishek and Priyanka. It will involve two sessions on the same day over the Zoom app.
- As we start the Zoom session, you can take us through the Family tree and all the issues and family stories in detail. We ask for further questions if required. Often, people keep a senior family member on standby in case any questions arise. Though only one person from the family tree is enough to get the healing done, even a spouse married into the family tree can help.
- Family stories are vital as they often provide important clues, especially the darker tales, so be candid.
- Thereafter, we will start the Session, and you can log out.
- Once we are done, probably in 1-1 1/2 hours, we will message you so that you can rejoin the Zoom meeting, and we can share Healing details and guidance.
- During the session, if possible, family members can do prayers or “Forgiveness Prayer for Ancestral Healing” (read here) for all the hurt souls on behalf of the Ancestors.
- Please be available online during the session duration so that, if needed, we can ask you for any additional information as it comes up.
- Once the healing session is completed, we will inform you and send you the PDF report here. You can go through and join back the Zoom meeting to discuss any clarification required. We will share details of the healing and the guidance received.
NOTE: We can only take up clients whom our Spiritguides allow us to work with. Not all families have adequate good karma for healing. That is why we first ask for a photograph of an ancestor.
The following forgiveness prayers are to be done at the time of healing:
COMMON GUIDANCE FROM ANCESTORS
Over the years, successive Family Tree healing sessions have revealed common themes of collective wisdom for us: “एक दूसरे के काम आओ, और साथ बढ़ो। – बरकत सत्कर्म से आती है, ना की बहुतायत में धन संपदा जुटाने से।” Help each other, and grow together! Share your abundance, and it will grow. Splintered Family trees, where there is infighting, greed, and politics, are less happy compared to families that help each other. Abundance is not just money but generosity, charity and care. A caring family is blessed and attracts good souls to incarnate. Otherwise, a self-indulgent Family tree, prone to usurping of land and property and abuse of power, especially mistreatment of women and the weak, diminishes and dies with time because it fails to attract good souls anymore. That is how business houses and dynasties fade away!
यत्र नार्यस्तु पूज्यन्ते रमन्ते तत्र देवताः ।
यत्रैतास्तु न पूज्यन्ते सर्वास्तत्राफलाः क्रियाः ।।– मनुस्मृति ३/५६ ।।
जहाँ स्त्रियों की पूजा होती है वहाँ देवता निवास करते हैं और जहाँ स्त्रियों की पूजा नही होती है, उनका सम्मान नही होता है वहाँ किये गये समस्त अच्छे कर्म निष्फल हो जाते हैं।
“Where women are worshipped, there lives the Gods. Wherever they are not worshipped, all actions result in failure.”
शोचन्ति जामयो यत्र विनश्यत्याशु तत्कुलम् ।
न शोचन्ति तु यत्रैता वर्धते तद्धि सर्वदा ।। – मनुस्मृति ३/५७ ।।
जिस कुल में स्त्रियाँ कष्ट भोगती हैं ,वह कुल शीघ्र ही नष्ट हो जाता है और जहाँ स्त्रियाँ प्रसन्न रहती है वह कुल सदैव फलता फूलता और समृद्ध रहता है ।
The family in which women are full of sorrow that family meets its destruction very soon, while the family in which they do not grieve is always prosperous.“
Are you proud of your surname, ancestry or trying to hide it or blend in? – Always feel proud of the surname you have chosen to incarnate. Don’t change it, trying to be modern, inconspicuous or feeling ashamed. Why? By losing your surname, you lose the blessings and the good fortune that come with a surname and a direct connection with the Family’s Godhead – the Kuldevi or Kuldevta! The bad karma of the family will, anyway, come to you due to Karmic matching, but the good karma of the family is what you will miss out on!
No wonder there has been a long tradition to take the newlyweds to the Kuldevi shrine in ancestral villages so that she can bless them and be introduced to the bride, the new member of the Family Tree, so that her integration is complete and your future progeny is blessed.

TESTIMONIALS & FEEDBACKS
- “This session of Abhishek and Priyanka was awesome!!!! We recently got this done, and it made me wonder if all the various daans and poojas, etc, that the pandits ask to do for Pitra dosh make any difference. Those so-called ‘upayas’ (remedies) of the pandits lost all relevance after the session. This is energy-level work and is deep unravelling and cleansing. I’m sure the benefits will show up soon, too. It’s just been 3 days, and we’ve got so many indications that work has been done on our family tree. Great job, Priyanka and Abhishek.”
– A family in Agra
- “After the healing, we had no further accidents in the family in the past six months.”
– a family that was having a series of serious road accidents every few months, in Noida
- Thank you 🙏 for everything. It was a very good experience. God Bless.
– Rajeev - “Thank you so much, Sir and Ma’am! I was just looking for materialistic problems and solutions, before the healing. But got much more than that 🙏🙂”
– Alok*
- “After the healing, we are seeing positive changes in the family, thanks!”

FAQs
Q. 1. How do I know my family has Pitr Dosha?
Draw a chart, and look for patterns of dysfunctions. Otherwise, make a family tree chart, paternal and maternal, prioritising which one has dysfunction or anomalies. Once you have made it, you can send the chart to us with a pic of at least 2 members of the Family tree. We can do a psychic reading to tell you for sure. Often, family folklore has this information, and some elders talk about it. Pujas are also done for Pitr dosha nivaaran puja (removal) to no avail.
For example, in one family, the grandmother lit a diya in the backyard each evening, where no children were allowed. Only later did the family find she knew of the Pitr Dosh, wherein each son lost their firstborn over generations due to an unknown ancestral curse.
Q2. Once I’ve received Family Tree Healing, do individual family members still need to heal my past life karma?
Yes. Family Tree Healing addresses only the karmic issues that originate from your ancestral lineage—those passed down through the generations. It does not resolve your personal karma from past lives or any soul-level attachments you may carry.
It’s important to understand that only souls with shared or matching karmic patterns are born into the same family. While Family Tree Healing can create a powerful energetic shift, opening the path for healing within the entire family, each individual’s personal karmic baggage remains their own responsibility.
Family Tree Healing can clear ancestral burdens such as generational curses, black magic, and unsettled ancestral souls. However, to address personal past life karma or specific soul contracts, we recommend a Karmic Reading (Akashic Records Reading) followed by Karmic Healing. Not required to be done simultaneously. Read here
Q. 3. How soon can I expect results?
From a few weeks to 1-2 months. Results depend on the Family’s collective karma as well. Though we have had miraculous results over the years, we cannot make any claims or guarantees. If you believe, come! We will try our best to find the origins of your family dysfunction and, God willing, heal it.
Q. 4. I don’t believe in this form of healing, should I still go for it?
No. If you don’t believe it, it’s not for you. Don’t bother. Try something else. We believe that when the time comes for healing, belief also comes automatically. Hence, we never try to convince anyone. We believe we have to be karmically ready as well. No one can heal us beyond our karma. Or before our time. So, we would suggest Sewa (selfless service/volunteering) instead. Earn good karma, and God will ensure the best healing path opens up for you.
Q. 5. Am I interfering with my Karma through this?
Only people who are karmically ready for healing would come for healing. Also, whatever is karmically allowed will be healed. This is not a free pass to heal all ills. Some Prarabdha Karma we have suffered. No escape, as they are part of our life lessons.
Q. 6. Do I need to be physically present for the session?
No. Since it is a remote healing session, you need to be available during the session on WhatsApp, FaceTime or Zoom call, in case we have any queries.
If you have any other questions, please feel free to contact us.
Thanks
May you be free of suffering.
Love and Light
– Priyanka and Abhishek
