The Siren In Mourning. Personal Mythology – – Painting By –

This is the moment of deep sadness, contemplation and stillness before the big changes.Personally I like the version that Sirens evolved from an ancient tale of the perils of early exploration combined with an Asian image of a bird-woman. as a soul-bird—i.e., a winged ghost that stole the living to share its fate. In that respect the Sirens had affinities with the Harpies. And owls symbolise inner wisdom, change, transformation, intuitive development.
