Hey guys.

I recently decided that I wanted to get a tattoo that represents the changes I have made recently.

I have looked into many different types, and I know that either a kanji or Native American symbol would be great.

If anyone has some suggestions or pictures, I would seriously appreciate it.

Thanks!!!!:grin:

Modnote: Don't turn this thread into a debate about whether or not tattoos are right or wrong.

Sorry, Miss Rushia. I don't mean to cause a mess.

If any members are willing to give some help, I'd appreciate it.

I wasn't directing that at you, but at anyone who might've had the desire to cause a debate.

One that maybe good is the Hopi Tawa Kachina symbol.

Its the last one on the page.

symbol is of life, growth, strength of spirit, and abundance.

Ah! That's a good one! Thank you, Mr. Roy!

I am pretty sure I want this symbol to deal with either rebirth, strength, or freedom.

Thanks again!

I have a question about symbols and meaning in some images or scenes in anime and manga.
My first question: What is with the cherry blossoms? I know the pink trees with preety flowers are abundant in Japan, but do they have a special meaning? Why they are so often used in animes?

What do you mean?

Gravedigging means posting in a thread that hasn't been posted in for a long time (usually a year or older). We generally don't like gravedigging unless you have something significant to add to the topic. Since this thread is old and your question about cherry blossoms doesn't really connect with the discussion about tattoos, I'm going to go ahead and lock this. However, you're more than welcome to make a new thread about symbols in anime in our Anime forum: http://www.christiananime.net/forumdisplay.php?f=7
