LISE-LOTTE MANN
(1946-2000)

Lise-Lotte Mann, one of the best known and most loved astrologers in Denmark, died of cancer on the first day of the new millennium. (January 1, 2001, 18:29 PM, Copenhagen, Denmark) According to the data she gave me, she was born February 24, 1946, at 7:26 AM, in Nykobing-Falster, Denmark.

Lise-Lotte Mann studied psychology and worked as a medical secretary in the Psychiatric Department of the Kommune Hospital in Copenhagen for almost twenty years, during the 1980s part-time so she could also practice astrology. She received a Diploma in astrology from the Irene Christensen Institute in 1981, and a Diploma from the Unicorn School of Astro-Psychology in 1988.

She learned an esoteric healing technique called Harmonisation in France in 1982, which she continued to use in her astrological and therapeutic work. She taught gestalt, psychodynamic process work and psychosynthesis at the Unicorn School from 1991-1994, and astrology at the Scandinavian Astrology School in Copenhagen. She had a regular and highly valued radio program at Radio Lotus.

Lise-Lotte's beloved daughter Laura Olsen was born in 1972. In 1991 she met and married Tad Mann. In the 1990s she taught in Spain, Norway, and Sweden, and at Scottsdale and the ARC Conference in Michigan in 1995. She also enlivened many UAC and World Astrology Conferences. She wrote many articles and affected the lives of a multitude of students and clients. She fulfilled a lifelong dream by touring Egypt in 1999.

Lise-Lotte Mann's astrological work was varied and profound. Her primary interests were her unique theory of "life theme dreams." She had had dreams when she was young of events from a previous life and which prefigured her life. She found astrological correlations with such dreams and used them actively in her therapeutic sessions with clients. Her work with the Yod configuration was powerful as she was interested in the relationship between health, death and our fate in life. This work struck very close to home for many of her clients and students, who appreciated her insight and ability to confront those difficult places.

She rectified every birth time using the Kündig system in order to find the most accurate times and utilized the Kündig "Sun Key" for progressions. She also worked with and taught experiential therapeutic techniques and their applications to astrology and ongoing astro-therapy. When we taught at the Unicorn School in Copenhagen, we worked very deeply not only with our students, but also ourselves. We confronted our sub-personalities and also played with them. Lise-Lotte was always animated and did her astrology and teaching work with great love, which was greatly valued especially by her friends and associated.

I will always remember how she laughed, how concentrated she was on the implications of astrology in our world and how important it was for her to respect and pass on her understanding. She was a delight and most of all, a great friend and companion. To everyone who had the good fortune to know her, she was that rare combination: a truly profound, delightful and beautiful person. She will be missed.

Jeff Jawer writes,

"Lise-Lotte was an incredible person whose beauty flowed through her body, mind and soul. She was very much a Pisces with that gentleness and wisdom common to this sign. But, Lise-Lotte also had a sharpness and clarity that contained and focused her sweetness with alert intelligence. I am very grateful to have known her and learned from her great spirit."
