Every BODY has a Story: Transformation

"This tattoo is a very powerful symbol called a rune. Runes are ancient symbols people used in magic ceremonies. Many people think that they are Irish in origin, but actually, they have Anglo-Saxon ancestry.

This rune, is the rune of transformation. I got it very recently, and it is something I want for myself. I really need the strength of transformation in order to get rid of an unhappy situation in which I have found myself.

I am still dealing with this situation, but the rune is a constant reminded to me of change, and growth, new beginnings, and old endings.

When I went in to have it done, I was going to have it done on my shoulder, but as soon as I was in the shop I realized that I Had to have it on my neck in this place. It is also a powerful place on the body, but the only place that felt right for my rune."
