Sirena Caspi

The keeper of the water world

Nature of the tree

The Sirena Caspi is a tree of the riverbanks, where the forest flows into the water. Its name means «tree of the mermaid». In Amazonian tradition the water beings live in the rivers and lakes – mermaids and other spirits of the deep. It is said that the spirit of this tree comes from the water and appears in the shape of a mermaid. Which tree exactly is meant is hardly described. Its nature belongs to the river.

Inner attitude

The Sirena Caspi stands between two worlds. Its roots drink from the river, its image floats on the water.

The essential qualities

  • flowing
  • alluring
  • deep
  • mirroring
  • soft

It shows what lies beneath the surface.

Meaning

The Sirena Caspi calls when your feelings are restless or you are afraid of your own depth. It teaches you to look into the water without sinking into it – and to follow the pull that leads you to yourself.

Voice of the tree

«Look into my water. What you see is you as well.»

Encounter & working together

You meet it on the bank, where trees are mirrored in still water. Sit by a stream or lake, look at the reflection for a while and let your thoughts drift away with the water.

Pay attention to

  • where your feelings begin to move
  • where something lures you
  • where you meet your reflection

The Sirena Caspi works when you are ready to meet your own depth.

Essence

I look into my depth and stay with myself.
