I’ve been focusing on love lately, because the world often feels cold, loud, and divided. And because I believe that’s exactly why we need something different right now: a reminder of what love truly is, as a force, not a cliché.
In my last photo series, it was Sailor Moon: Love as the strongest energy in the universe. Something that heals, protects, fights, and ultimately wins.
This time, it’s Aphrodite.
She’s often reduced to just one word: beauty. But Aphrodite isn’t only beautiful, she is origin.
She stands for seduction, connection, fertility. For desire, the force that sets life into motion. For the kind of love from which something is born: Life. Growth. Creation.
In one of the oldest stories, she rises from the sea, from foam. Not as a fairytale image. But as a reminder: love isn’t just a feeling. Love is the principle that creates the world.
This photo series is my attempt to bring love back into our awareness, because we forget it too easily, even though we need it now more than ever. Not small, not private, not secondary. But primal. Sensual. Powerful.
Sailor Moon taught us Millennials that softness is power, that community matters, and that love can be a cosmic force. She introduced us early on to symbolism, myth, and systems. And it shaped femininity as something powerful, complex, and world-shaping, rather than merely decorative or passive. For me, growing up with Sailor Moon felt like being gently reminded that strength doesn’t have to be loud to be real.
Ever since I cut my hair short (and went for this bright orange color 😅), I’ve been in the mood to go a little extra with my makeup — more on the editorial side. And honestly, who’s a better inspiration than Britney? 🩵 “Toxic” was definitely my moodboard — but mostly the visual part: the glitter, the blue flight attendant outfit… you know exactly what I mean. ✈️✨
Honestly, I didn’t expect the color to turn out this bright – but somehow I kinda love it! 😅 After the first wash though, I noticed it keeps shifting into a super vibrant orange 🍊 … which wasn’t really what I had in mind. I’m thinking of going one shade darker to make it look a bit more natural. For the pros out there: I used 88/43 Wella Koleston for this shade. ChatGPT suggested 7/31 to balance it out – adding more brown and toning down the brightness with the ash. Does that sound like a solid plan? I’m still torn, because I honestly do like the lighter look – just not the neon orange vibe I ended up with. 🤪 What do you think?
What I’ve really noticed since cutting my hair short: I get more attention – but a different kind. The kind that feels less sexualized, more like respect.
Once I realized that, it hit me: those old sayings like “when you’re happy with yourself, you radiate” – they’re true. I’m not searching, I’m not needing, I feel complete within myself. Self-contained, that’s what it’s called, right? And it works. We humans communicate this subconsciously – and we pick it up from others subconsciously too.
Most people project neediness. That’s why it stands out so much when someone doesn’t. My recent experiences are pretty clear on that. And yes, I can trust my perception. I’m a woman, old enough to know: we’re conditioned from early on to sense how our environment perceives us.
Still, I find it fascinating. Because in the end, it all goes back to a simple pattern: love yourself, and you’ll be loved. Easy, simple. BUUUUUUT: how much in today’s world is designed to distract us from exactly that state is honestly wild.
Anyway – that’s my little take on what I’ve noticed since wearing a short haircut.
Mars Log – Summer 2025 I really needed some distance from Earth – so this year I flew to Mars for my summer vacation. And against all expectations, there is actually water here. Extremely salty, so that stones float on the surface – I even managed to sit on one. What impressed me the most was the extraordinary silence. Unfortunately, I didn’t meet any other living beings. But that distance was exactly what I needed to look at my life on Earth from afar.
My latest haircut pics feel like a flashback to early 2000s energy. That early 2000s feeling when technology still felt sexy, but not overwhelming. somewhere between iMac ads, lipgloss, and club lighting.
I did it – grabbed the scissors and gave myself a new look. No salon, no perfection. Just intuition and the guts to switch things up. ✂️✨
I let my community name the cut – and I love what they came up with: The Himulet. A mix of Hime Cut and Mullet – and honestly, the name nails it. The look kinda reminds me of a medieval warrior with a modern twist. 🛡️🖤
Is the cut perfect? Nope. But that’s not the point. It’s about experimenting, expressing yourself – and knowing you can always change it again.
The name The Himulet instantly reminded me of that one painting of Jeanne d’Arc by Albert Lynch – the soft strength, the medieval edge, the armor-like presence. There’s something about this cut that feels like a modern echo of that energy.
