She Who Creates – Shaman of the Arts Sacred Tattoo Design
I’ve been in the sacred tattoo design vortex here, and today’s share is nothing short than magickal indeed.
I loved working this client, who immediately proved to be much more than that, and what has unfolded between us energetically and through this design has just been breath-taking.
That being said, I’m going to keep this tattoo design share, short and sweet, as I believe the photo speaks for itself.
Sometimes when I photograph my designs, some odd energy and light effects take place, and this happened again last night as I tried to capture this image. What appeared, to me, is pretty wild.
The second image to the right, is the more flat, regular drawing and the first one on the left is where the magick happened.
I love how the energy and lighting falls on the design, creating that ethereal quality and essence that IS emanating from it, even if you can’t see it JUST by looking at the design. These sacred pieces ARE alive and pulsing with presence and energy, as the potent portals they are.
Look how the light from top left illuminates through their crowns and from the Flower of Life design that is slowly materializing there. And look at that glowing soft blue light from bottom that is like wow! as it is flowing from the bottom Flower of Life design.
As mentioned, I feel the design speaks for itself, so the only few things I’ll share are these very basics about the main elements:
Isis (as an aspect of my client/her wholeness/empowered/Divine Feminine/Goddess essence) – she is a dance choreographer and powerful creative healing visionary
Hawk – see Hawk Spirit Symbolism
Flower of Life in an artistic version that brings creation from the void into life here – I was inspired by the oldest to date Flower of Life I had opportunity to see at the Temple of Osiris at Abydos, in Egypt, to infuse into this piece Egyptian-to-modern-day-inspired piece
Isis/my client is creating alchemy and magick as the child of the stars that she is, evident by her hands as that magician quality where she is mastering all elements to create from in this “dance” of life she shares. There is also shapeshifter energy and shaman of the arts and all things beautiful here.
I’ve added a bursting lotus “crown” at the hawk’s head emanating in open and expanding consciousness – honoring Horus.
In ancient Egypt, the hawk was considered a royal bird and a symbol of the soul (ba). Isis is said to have shape shifted into a Hawk to save Osiris. Horus also carried Hawk medicine which allowed him to see the “unseeable”.
I loved the way the vision came through in wrapped wings that double as both Hawk’s and Isis’ wings, also reminding me of an angel wrapping around supportively – sharing its presence is always there when needed.
And I created soft edges to everything as if it is all just starting to materialize and coming into manifestation from star dust.
I hope you enjoy exploring this image, as much as I enjoyed creating it into life. Can’t wait to see this in the flesh.

Reblogged this on Awakening to Arachanaï.
Yes, I have seen both tattoo designs and I think you are saying right both design appearance is different and reflects some different type of energy. This is called magical created by an tattoo artist.
thanks!
