Hi, welcome.  I’m an artist, counselling evolutionary astrologer and educator. I guide others into deeper levels of self knowledge and soul embodiment through birth chart interpretation and psycho-spiritual guidance. I focus on the process of individuation through integrating unconscious aspects of the self. Healing and whole-making is found in returning and attuning to natures intelligence — to what is real and true — earth, body, and celestial rhythms.

  • I completed The Archetypal Journey, in 2024-2025, and wish I could take this knowledge back in time to certain aspects in my life where I was struggling to 'figure it all out.' Josje's knowledge in Evolutionary Astrology is genuine, in-depth, and informative. This isn't a high level pop-astrology course: it is full of meaning and lessons that if one chooses, can be life changing--it was for me.

  • The Archetypal Journey was such a profound, powerful and inspiring experience! So much wonderful wisdom and knowledge from Josje - she created such a warm space for everyone in the group, and she is a wonderful teacher! I have learnt so much, not just information alone but soul knowledge with depth and meaning that I will carry forever. Would highly recommend this to anyone interested in learning more about evolutionary astrology.

Josje offered deep and clarifying insights into the different layers of my being — from patterns I’ve carried for years to hidden qualities that now feel more available to me.

She brings astrology to life in a way that is both grounded and magical. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of themselves.”

    — Deborah

  • "I think you said that our charts can be something of a “mirror” and it really felt just so — as if you were plucking strands of my soul out of this map of the stars & planets. For a scorpio sun who needs everything to have depth and sincerity, you really hit all of the marks.”

    — Andrea, USA

  • “I wish I could condense my gratitude into a wee vial and ship it to you because words can fall short. Thank you - for such depth, playfulness and nourishing insight during my mini readings. Equal parts supportive and igniting. The reading will be a tool to lean on over the next few years - incredible.”

    — Caroline

  • “This reading clarified so much about where I’m going, what my soul work is in the world, what challenges / struggles to look out for and tools to meet them. Josje you hold such a beautiful container, I love your mind and how you explain things. Huge download!”

    — Siobhan, Australia

  • “Having my chart read by Josje was one of my favourite things I’ve done for myself recently. I highly recommend if you want to gain a deeper understanding of yourself. Josje’s calming presence, eagerness to share your story, and how it all relates to the universe is nothing short of magical. Her training and knowledge were immediately apparent, as she could explain areas I initially found confusing in a way that made sense. Josje’s energy and passion shone through as she walked me through the different facets of my chart and how they all relate to one another. I’m excited to take the knowledge I gained from the reading and dig even deeper. Thank you, Josje”

    — Jami, USA

  • “What a gift. Josje has such a beautiful and natural way of explaining and interpreting, I felt every word. I left the session feeling so refreshed, excited, curious and seen. Feelings and “knowing’s” I have had, to have them noted back to me was so incredible. Left me standing a little taller. If you’re curious and want to get to know yourself better, to dig in and be open, I highly recommend you book a reading with josje. I had very little knowledge in astrology but josje broke it down and made it so easy to follow along. I can’t wait to continue this journey.”

    — Danielle, Canada

  • “The in depth reading with Josje was just that, very in depth! I now have a fuller deeper understanding of astrology and how all the planets, signs and houses work together. Josje is very passionate and honest in her interpretation and made a safe space for reflecting on what we discovered together. Highly recommend to do a reading with her!”

    — Vida, Aotearoa

  • “My session with Josje was absolutely profound. her way of bringing all pieces and parts of your chart together and harmonising them in an easily digestible yet so deeply insightful way is truly an art form. She is one of a kind, with a special gift of seeing the bigger picture of “you” though your chart and also zoning in on the finer details. It is full of wisdom - I am still receiving and integrating from our session and have just booked in another one. I adore this woman - she is magical, a true channel of wisdom to support you where you are at in life.”

    — Kiera, Canada

  • “My session with Josje was eye opening, it literally felt like i was being handed a map of my life. I was astonished by how much she could know from reading my chart. Josje has a very special gift and tremendous knowledge. It’s amazing to see her channel this in her sessions I encourage anyone who wants more insight about themselves and their journey on earth to book a session with her. You won’t regret it.”

    — Roosje , Belgium

  • "Few times in my life have I felt this seen. I left our reading fully inspired to step into the most authentic version of myself, unabashedly, heart open, without the guilt- the shame- and the fear - that had been holding me back for so long. Thank you Josje for this gift, this blessing, and for your grace in it all.”

    — Sasha, USA

  • It’s so hard to put into words what this course has meant to me. It has brought me to a place of such peace and curiosity. To be able to be in-tune with the natural world around you is such a gift. This course has given me just that, a beautiful container to feel, to learn, to grow. Moving through the zodiac wheel, going through each sign, ruling planet and house, each month together, it really allows you to contemplate and feel all of the teachings in real time. To really tune into your body and feel how it is expressed within. Josje is such a light, you can feel her love and passion through the screen. I look forward to continuing to learn from her.

    — Danielle

  • “I found the reading to be very insightful, as well as timely. As a professional woman entering mid-life, I had a lot of internal questions. Josje’s reading provided not just clarity, but almost as if my soul was speaking to me. I’ve definitely been taking her recommendations into consideration, as far as moving forward in life, and how I can better align myself to my true purpose.”

    — Andrea, USA

  • “Blessed to have taken the plunge into a world I know very little about, and have such a warm welcome and guide throughout it all. Feeling really enlightened from my session with Josje! She has one of the loveliest demeanors of any human that I have met. Highly recommend booking in.”

    — J, New Zealand

  • “I came to find Josje by a series of serendipitous events in a transition period in my life. I was feeling a bit lost, unsure of my path. I am newly excited by astrology and this was my first chart reading. Josje's energy was calming and sincere, and I left the session feeling clarity in who I feel I've been, and who I feel I'm becoming. I feel so grateful and won't hesitate to reach out to her again!”

    — Ally, USA

  • Josje has an incredible gift of being able to inspire and affirm in her readings in a way that imprints hope. I truly felt that Josje had gifted me a sacred remembering - reflecting to me what I know to be true within, and then illuminating a path forward. I highly recommend Josje as someone who would share the magic of evolutionary astrology... lovingly, respectfully and very generously, with you."
