„Nature, in all its diversity and creativity, is my favorite teacher. Just as every flower knows when its growth processes are coming, this knowledge is also within us. The flower opens its blossoms out of joy, in its own rhythm and in connection with the environment and the nutrition that promotes growth.“

I have been working in astrology since 1980. My experiences and my knowledge of homeopathy, Bach flowers, the genogram accompany the learning and the process of self-healing. In all this, astrology is the source of inspiration.

I am part of the Professional Association for Naturopathic Practitioners www.lachesis.de
