Tattoo

I have several tattoo ideas that I would like to carry out, each with a special meaning.

1. Wolf in forest walking through horizon: Wolf symbolizes myself coming through the light of my life and embracing that light. It is a sign of trying to see myself for what I really am worth and allowing that to become me. Strong, brave, unique, compassionate, caring, maternal, every quality that I've kept hidden but will now show.

2. Dragons dancing intertwining with a mountain scene behind them: The dragons are my protectors, my warriors. They are the ones that will have my back when no one else does, they will watch over me along with my wolf when I'm sleeping, they will keep an eye on what's behind me when I'm not able to protect my blindside, and they will be the ones that keep my "terrible" past at bay while I focus on the brighter future ahead.

3. Wind Song: My native American Name. It will go where the wolf goes. This name is the name of myself as well as my wolf.

4. Ranunculus plant: Symbolic of my mother. She is my rose without thorns. It has taken me a while to realize but she is a rose without the ability to cause pain, only the sweet fragrance and beauty reside with her. She tries so hard to grow thorns in order to discipline, and teach, but she isn't that kind of person. Hard and harsh don't go with her personality.

5. Hardenbergia plant: Symbolic of my father. It is a very hard and tough vine, but also very beautiful. My father is tough and beautiful. Frustrating but lovely.

6. Wolf paw print with tribal markings: This one is symbolic of feminine strength, once again me coming to myself, and an amazonic sense of self respect, reliability, priority, beauty, and one more time, strength.

7. Snake with wings: This will be a more discrete tattoo depending on the length of my hair by the time I get it.
