A New Tattoo
September 30, 2014 @ 08:02:19 pm

I've decided I'm going to get another tattoo done for certain now. This one dose have deep spiritual meaning and the reason I've chosen to do it is also significant to me.

I'm not having the outer knot work, just everything that's inside the larger circle.

Uploaded at ImageFra.me

In European folklore the green man symbol has a deep significance with nature, and the use of oak leaves, which in much of western Europe are seen as a sign of strength, longevity and integrity, in the traditional design it is used as a symbol of the woods and of nature, and also as a sign of rebirth.

I've chosen it for both of its meanings, The re birth of me as I want to draw a line under my past and start afresh and as nature as this is my new path in life.

I have decided to have it done now as I want to mark a key achievement in my education in order to work as a steward for nature, and it will coincide with completing a Diploma in Arboriculture on the way to getting a degree in Forestry and Environment Management.

Dose anyone else have any tattoos with a deep meaning?

I also feel most alive when I am in nature, regardless of what I am doing.

I have a crow.

Crows have been with me all of my life...literally everywhere I went they were close...even skeptical friends and family noticed the odd frequency of their presence when I was around.

Then, for a few years, they were gone... completely. Again, even skeptical friends and family noticed their absence.

2009 was a bad year for a variety of reasons...personal, financial, professional, location....

One day in early January 2010 they were back in force.... literally 100's showed up that day, all day... a number of work colleges (there were no friends around) noticed and remarked on the number of crows that were with us all day.

The negative period of my life turned shortly thereafter.

Maybe there was no connection... but I think there was...

Certainly sounds like you have a connection there.

Looks like a lotta work,why not just have Water or Air done I've seen a lot of people with those words done in Chinese or some other Asian language,so if you get it done in English you just may start a trend.

Hmmm,am I being Demented???
