About Christina
Christina's career as an astrologer is informed by her work in counseling, academia and research, and international community development. However, all of her roles have stemmed from the same place: a love for patterns and a desire to bring people from different perspectives and backgrounds together.
Her sensitivity to differing cultures, traditions, stories and languages, started in the farmlands of Wisconsin, USA in households of both migrant Dutch and Jamaican family members. These formative experiences heightened her ability to communicate across cultures and to identify what makes us both different and the same.
Now she utilizes astrology as both a language and a tool that connects us all across time and space. By identifying personal ("natal") and collective ("mundane") historical patterns, Christina's approach is to empower both individuals and humanity to make choices aligned with the life stories they want to tell, rather than the ones they've felt bound to repeat.

FAQ's
What is your approach?
I use a blend of psychological, modern and traditional methods. I do not see a chart as merely fated. Rather, I see a spectrum of potentialities of how to play the hand that life has dealt you.
Where did you learn astrology?
Like most astrologers, I began as self-taught. After 3 years, I enrolled in formal programs to round out my skills. I have studied with The Faculty of Astrological Studies (UK) and Nightlight Astrology/Adam Elenbaas (US), plus ongoing, additional global training and courses.
Are you a licensed therapist?
While I am trained (Masters of Counseling Psychology) and have previously been a therapist, I am not currently licensed, and I cannot accept insurance. If I deem it necessary, I may refer you to a licensed mental health professional better suited to meet your needs.
Do you offer a guarantee?
No, and here's why: while astrology is highly technical, it offers probabilities and not certainties. It is also an art interpreted by the astrologer which interacts with your personal choices. Therefore, it cannot inherently be 100% accurate. However, I try to strike a balance between offering helpful guidance and not over-promising.
What if I need to reschedule or cancel?
I ask for 24 hour notice prior to your scheduled individual consultation to reschedule. The time required to prepare for an appointment is included in the price, therefore additional prep may not be feasible if we're unable to meet as scheduled. I'm unable to offer refunds once an appointment has been booked.
What's the difference between consulting with an astrologer vs. AI?
While Artificial Intelligence may be able to (for example)–give you many of the common themes that arise from a particular planetary combination–it cannot independently infuse intuition, discernment or moral judgments. Most importantly, AI cannot feel empathy, care or concern for your story. Therefore, AI will not be able to completely connect with you or speak with discernment to the nuances of your current situation as a human astrologer can and desires to.
How do you handle data & confidentiality?
Your privacy is important to me. All sessions occur in a confidential setting. I have also implemented 'Privacy by Design and Default' principles to ensure that data protection is considered from the outset and in compliance with GDPR and DSAR, as well as CPRA / other US States' data privacy acts. All personal identifying information is encrypted and consultation content is stored securely. You can view my full Privacy Policy here.
