Caer Ibormeith is a mystical figure in Irish mythology often associated with dreams and sleep, embodying the ethereal nature of the Otherworld. As a daughter of a Sidhe king, she appears in the dream of the god Óengus, captivating him with her beauty and elusive presence. Bound by an enchantment, she spends one year as a swan and the next as a human, her form changing each Samhain (Celtic New Year),marking her as a liminal being tied to cycles of rest and rebirth.
Often regarded as a sleep goddess, Caer represents the power of dreams to enchant, reveal hidden truths, and guide destiny, bridging the conscious and unconscious realms with otherworldly grace.
