Ink Marked ..the story

Ink Marked ..the story Talking tattoos here and trying to explain to some people what it means to be proud of your heritage enough to want to share it with others and tell them what your tattoos mean to you .Now i cannot speak for everyone myself because my tattoos are unique to me.So in saying that i will try to explain what each means.. My Native background goes way back through geneology the mid 00;s , I am quarter Blackfoot, quarter Cherokee and a quarter Narragansett , also a quarter Mic Mac...so there is a lot of history there in my ancestory..I also had my DNA done so there is no mistaking that . I have other tattoos but they also have meaning to me , so maybe not everyone has that big of a history in knowing their ancestors were but its always good to know ..My older brother is a geneology nut and hes always tracing roots and has an extensive collection of information from people are inter related with us.. The bear claws on my back represent my animal spirit guide , not everyone has an animal spirit guide so i consider myself lucky.I met my animal spirit guide when i was 9 years old..long story..lol The fox on my right shoulder represents my Great great great Grandfathers house , his ancestors were from the fox clan West , sleeping fox, rumnning fox , lazy fox..etc.. The feathers my right ear represents my Great, great great Grandmothers ...her given Native was " crossed feathers" when her Mom was pregnant with her she was sitting in an old chair on the porch , when she suddenly went into labor a bird flew of its nest above her and dropped feathers which landed in her lap with the quills crossed..hence " crossed feathers". the piece of rawhide is the tie that binds our families together..She was also a Blackfoot Princess and married into the Chief of the fox clan.. The dream catchers are always symbols of making sure the dreams we dream every night catches the bad dreams and dispells them so the good dreams stay in our hearts, and memories..Native people have vivid dreams and dream every night... I have feathers on my right forearm so that way when i pass away those will carry me wherever i am go next ..for life does not end it is just a part of<b> death </font></b>for the physical body.I also have necklaces , that carries a bear claw and the other that carries feathers in red in blue those are my parents favorite colors... The " End of the trail" tattoo on my left forearm is in tribute to my Cherokee ancestors, from Kentucky , they suffered horrendous injustices when they were taken from their land and made to adhere to the white settlers ways..The Cherokee were the first people to lose their land to the white settlers...I speak the old Cherokee language ..not fluently but enough to get by.. I also have other tattoos that i designed and always wanted that have meaning but are not Native...thanks for reading      |

Yes true enough and i remember you saying way back you are not a fan of tattoos which i am sure alot of people are not and thats ok..i just wouldnt want someone to judge too harshly anyone who had them before they know what the reasoning or meaning behind them are ..I plan to get one more in remembrance of my Dad , he was a merchant marine and it has to be in relation to that...thanx but it is up to you alone to decide if these are for you, The Young Lady I am seeing does have two of them and when we are out she does keep them covered, I really don't mind, don't think any one would even notice them anyway..Enjoy your culture and heritage any way you want to, just smile..
