“#metaphor” Tattoos

Cat chasing the mouse, a metaphor for how my life seems to be going as of late #inked #blacklines #catandmouse #animaloverMy sixth and most recent tattoo, done at the same time as the prior one. It is a semi colon for mental illness, depression, and suicide awareness. Like in a sentence, a semi colon is used to continue it, so use that as a metaphor for life, I could have chosen to end it but kept on going...This lovely lotus and dragon fly are on my left upper arm. Did you know that lotus come from the bottom of the water and made of mud, and other unpleasant things. I thought that it was cool that something that starts out ugly could become something so beautiful. Kinda thought of it as a metaphor for life. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder..𝐌𝐘𝐒𝐓𝐈𝐂 𝐁𝐔𝐓𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐅𝐋𝐘⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Thanks for this one Yolanda and being open to the design you sat like a 🪨, always the best.Been meaning to do some color & going to transition into some soon, thanks for the support folks. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀𝐒𝐘𝐌𝐁𝐎𝐋𝐈𝐒𝐌 In its metamorphosis from the common, colorless caterpillar to the exquisite winged creature of delicate beauty, the butterfly has become a metaphor for transformation and hope; across cultures, it has become a symbol for rebirth and resurrection, for the triumph of the spirit and the soul over the physical prison, the material world. Among the ancients, is an emblem of the soul and of unconscious attraction towards light. It is the soul as the opposite of the worm......#tattoo #tattooideas #butterflytattoo #butterfly #jewelry

The metaphors used in the spiritual alchemy of calcination, digestion, distillation, filtration, etc., indicate those processes that must be carried out in order to reach what one is oneself, and also to be able to conceptually understand the phenomena of the external world. #valenciatattoo #barcelonatattoo #etching #alchemy #chemistry #pharmacy #madridtattoo #valencia #barcelona #fineline #science #ciencia #esoteric #tattoovalencia #leonkaBow & Arrow with Daffodils, aimed at a nautical/texas star When life pulls you back, it's going to shoot you to the stars. Daffodils symbolize rebirth and new beginnings. Emphasizing the bow and arrow metaphor. The nautical star represents adventure. It also is a nod to Texas, where my star-crossed-lover lives. This piece is a double entendre. A reminder that my struggles in life will make me stronger and lead me to more adventures and success. Secondly, the unique and complicated relationship my lover and I have is not without its many challenges but we must always stay strong and aim for each other. Our biggest expression of our love is "we were made from the same star." Even if, we miss our shot, he has changed my life and allowed my true self to emerge. I always want to be reminded of that and never forget the lessons he taught me.
