At age seventeen and with the help of my first Astrology book, I taught myself how to calculate a natal chart. And that was it, I was hooked!

Twelve years and many books later, I went professional. In the interim, I had moved from Germany to the Netherlands, where I went through my first six months course with Mellie Uyldert. This was followed by the four-year professional training course at Karen Hamaker-Zondag’s Achernar School for Astrology and Related Sciences in Amstelveen. This school focuses mainly on psychological astrology, so it seemed natural to follow a two-year introduction to Jungian Psychology at the same school as well. Over the years I attended numerous courses, conferences, seminars and workshops with the greatest astrologers of our time.

Along the way, I picked up the Continuum Astro*Carto*Graphy Certificate Level I & II (teaching proficiency).

Since 2001 I live in the UK, to start with in London, where I worked at the Astrological Lodge of London as a member of the steering committee, teacher and lecturer. During my time at ‘the Lodge’ as members lovingly call it, I added Traditional, Horary and Hellenistic Astrology to my astrological repertoire and privately studied on with my partner, the astrologer Les Bailey. In the meantime, I was also writing, translating and editing astrological texts, and giving personal readings, face to face and over the phone. In 2003 I also became an active member of the Wheel of Astrologers, a loose association of like-minded astrologers who give readings and workshops in a festival environment.

In 2008 I left London and moved to Glastonbury in the South West of England, where I gave personal readings at the Bridget Healing Centre for almost three years , and also worked as a volunteer for the Library of Avalon, a treasure trove of esoteric literature (http://libraryofavalon.org.uk ) . These days, I am working from home, face-to-face and via phone or Skype.

Since I went professional in 1986, I have analysed thousands of horoscopes for people from all walks of life, regarding a great variety of subjects. In my work with individuals and couples I subscribe to the motto of Maria Montessori: “Help me to do it myself”.

I am available for one-to-one readings (also over the phone or Skype), lectures, classes and private tutoring in English, German or Dutch.
