New tattoo


I have been waiting FOREVER to get this tattoo!
Finally we got some extra money (taxes!) and Trav and I each got each other a little something.
Mine is this new tattoo!

It's actually an original drawing by yours truly.
I was going to use one of the drawings that Trav's sis busted out for me - but I just couldn't get away from the one I made.
The artist cleaned it up a bit - making it straight and even - but all and all it's my design.

It's my own variation of the symbol for the planet Jupiter, which is Sagittarius' ruling planet. Jupiter in Sagittarius rules knowledge, spirituality, wisdom and luck.

I wanted some sort of tattoo that represented my astrological sign since I am the epitome of a Sagittarius - but the sign for the super Sag, is a boring old bow and arrow. Barf.
I tried for years to make a bow and arrow into something unique and cool - but I just couldn't come up with anything great.

Yes, I know it looks like a curvy # 4, but I really like that about it because it's my 4th tattoo.
I love it mostly because I drew it myself and I know that no one else out there has the exact same thing. Plus it looks awesome!

If you can't tell from the pic - it's on the inside of my right wrist. Which I found out is really sensitive - it hurt like a bitch - but it didn't take a long time - so it was totally worth it.

I want more!
