If there's one thing that is very certain throughout our lives, it is that we are constantly surrounded by the chaos and order of change. Isn't it funny that when finally things seem to fall in place - new things are arriving at the horizon to humble your very self? That when it can't be getting any worse, somehow things change for the better? I sometimes have to get really angry with life, getting at an age where you begin to talk to yourself and you'll get more annoyed. And yet, movement no matter how small, is the catalyst of change. Things falling into place is also movement and so is slamming your fist on a surface because you simply have enough! My life, for the short 36 years that I've been here, has been a rollercoaster of happenings. Being a rebel teen, running away from home, feeling misunderstood all the time, not knowing that I barely knew myself was a perfect - albeit very hard to swallow sometimes - shaper of my life. I don't easily give up, I go through fire to make thin

An emerald world so aglow it was almost the same golden light of Autumn yet of the purest green. Valleys and hills, rivers and ponds, wells and charms, nooks and ruins. I've just returned from visiting the most wonderous and magical places in Ireland, where we stood amongst history, once impossible for mere people to wander into. Walls that were magnicifcent and enclosed once, reduced to ruins where it's structure and greatness of the past could only be imagined. To top off this journey with a most magical celebration has had an impact that has not entirely landed and absolutely requires a bit more time. But there will be a small update anyway. When I traveled to Ireland for the first time in 2016 I already knew that I wanted to return. It took another 10 years, a move to Norway, becoming a mama once more and marrying my now husband as well as rediscovering purposes and callings. The return couldn't come at a better time as the call to travel back was so strong I decided to buy tickets

On Sunday I will return back to Ireland. The last time was 2016 and I went alone. This time I bring my family and we'll explore the myths, legends and history of the country. We'll return right before the Bealtaine celebration and I assume a big dose of inspiration for all things Siren. On my phone I have a countdown: 5 days until Ireland and I feel both the excitement, yet I'm very calm to head on this journey. The labyrinth grounds were prepared this weekend for the maypole dance, which this year, we'll decorate together with all the participants. Last year was such a wonderful gathering and it was so much fun to have the activities around this time of the year. The Maypole dance marks growth, love, fertility, luck and most of all FUN! Hopping over fire also is an old custom believed to attract good luck, wealth and health. You can hop over alone, together, however you like. I have very fond memories of that Bealtaine feast, celebrating together with close friends, family and wonderf

I dedicate this blog post to the woman who had a profound impact on my own musical journey, Máire Brennan, singer and harpist of the Irish band Clannad. She past away, way too young, on the 13th of April 2026. To honor her, I unpacked my harp that I hadn't touched in the last few months and began to play. Clannad were an Irish band founded in 1970 in Gweedore, County Donegal, Ireland. The band consisted of the siblings Ciarán, Pól and Máire as well as their twin uncles Noel and Pádraig Ó Dúgáin. I was born 20 years later and through my childhood one of my favourite songs was "Theme from Harry's Game". Through my dad I was brought up musically with the ability to explore different styles and genres. In my teens I got the DVD-box Robin of Sherwood and I watch it over again and again throughout the years. The music always held me in its grasp and it's especially in the last 10-12 years that I keep on rediscovering why the music continous to make large waves in my life. When the news of Má

The idea to start Siren Enchantments was something that came both sudden and yet was in the making for the longest time. Looking back I see that every experience led me up to this endeavour, every blessing and also every lesson and hardship. I think throughout our lives, especially when we embrace the freedom behind all the (in)securities we think we have, we learn to navigate both storms and calm seas to get closer to who we are. I don't think that growing into our own is always pretty. In fact, I think we often get to the point when we are at our lowest and it cannot get worse than that. I burned out before I decided to embrace Siren fully. I was going back and forth between trying to please employers who didn't give two cents about me and could replace me at a wim and diving head into the unknown, yet with taking full responsibility for myself. And what a fascinating way that was to discover more of who I am and what I'm capable of. And also realizing that faking til you make it doe

There's about a week left for March 2026, but it's a fact we're already nearing the end of this month. Several themes have been incredibly important this month, although it is through the reflection of today that I feel the bricks falling into place. Ever since I was young I have had this capability to kind of see the bigger picture, I act often on what I know is ahead of me. Which can be incredibly confusing sometimes, because I cannot always explain why. Most of our experiences that we live in a certain moment, especially the ones that are out of our ordinary daily routines, make an impact days, weeks or even months later. It's been almost 2 weeks since we left Scotland and although the journey was at part overshadowed by the everyday worries of my life as a mom and self employed artist, I do realise, that our trip there couldn't come at a better time. After Samhain and during the 12 Magical Nights (done from the Winter Solstice) in 2025, I made 2 whole-year spreads with a Plant Orac
