Life

Shiran first studied medicine. In 1979 she co-founded the Munich “Advice Center for Natural Birth and Parenting in Munich”. V. “In 1980 she lived with other women who called themselves Schiran women , first as self-sufficient women in Lower Bavaria , later in the Eifel , Cornwall and other places. In 1984 the women moved to various farms as a lesbian community in the Swabian Alb . They referred to this as the "politics of non-response to ruling structures", which has been criticized by other feminists. Until 1990, Shiran wrote five esoteric and fantastic books, one of them with the women of the community who influenced the spiritual women's movement and were also received abroad. The Shiran women also gave workshops on spiritual practice. In 1988 Josef Nyáry described her as one of the most renowned German witches.

In 1991 she wrote the foreword to the new edition of Gisela Graichens Die neue Hexen , after she had previously appeared as an interview partner in the book.

Before her death in 2013, Schiran was accompanied by Johanna Kirsch and Katharina Lampert as one of three people with alternative life concepts in the documentary Von Hier Aus . She lived with her partner Rita Hagelstange in the Alentejo in Portugal .
