The Bean Sidhe

I reached deep into the well of my grief, and my tears sang this doll into being. The Bean Sidhe holds within her the cycles of life, death, and rebirth. For me, she is deeply connected to the moon & the tides. When I come to her, I am reminded that I am a part of the ebb and flow of the tides, my tears rising and falling as the ocean dances with the moon.

“Dear child,” she says, “never forget that grief and love dance this way, too.”

The Bean Sidhe’s tears and moon are woven in tussah silk. The ocean waves are woven in wool. She is adorned with salmon bones gathered on the beaches of Lingít Aaní.

Her heart holds seaweed, milk thistle seeds, hawthorn berries, butterfly pea flower, frankincense & myrrh resins, and a salmon bone.
