Celebratory Sacred Tattoo Designs ~ One Door Closes, Another Door Opens
I LOVE that I got to complete my sacred tattoo design cycle with this joyous, magickal, and celebratory piece above.
What a perfect note to end on.
I’ve been working away on designs since my return from sabbatical…not all I have shared, as some people like to wait until they get them done to reveal them.
But here are two of the most recent ones, with the above, as mentioned being my official last.
If you don’t know what that means when I say it’s my last, I had made a brief announcement a couple of weeks ago that I am not accepting any more new clients for designs at this time.
Sacred tattoo designing will take a hiatus in my life for now.
This service will be available again, but at an undetermined time yet known.
I’ll share more details about why this break is being implemented in my upcoming February newsletter next week.
For now, I hope you enjoy these peeks into some pretty amazing souls, with the energy they have to collectively reflect for you from their essence.
Sacred Tattoo Designs On Hiatus
One of my newest designs – http://www.spiritualskin.com
A brief, but important, announcement about sacred tattoo designs that has come with great time spent in reflection and receiving of the guidance channeling through.
As all things change, so too do my own cycles of life I must honor.
I am not accepting any more new clients for designs at this time.
Once I complete all current commissions, sacred tattoo designing will take a hiatus in my life.
This service will be available again, but at an undetermined time yet known.
I’ll share more details about why this break is being implemented in my upcoming February newsletter.
Thank you for your understanding. ❤
What a journey it’s been, is about to be, and will be again!
New Sacred Tattoo Designs & Rates for 2016
Sacred tattoo design created for over the Heart Chakra filling middle/upper back to reflect her essence and deepening into her heart
Beginning today, I’ll be sharing some of the sacred tattoo designs I’ve been working on since returning from my sabbatical in batches of 3 or 4 at a time, so you can see the new energy that’s channeling through with a new year upon us.
I don’t have the time to share the in depth symbolism anymore for each design, but I do believe that everyone receives the message, reflection, and symbolism perfect for them when viewing these, regardless.
The energy continues to be potent and the process for me continues to deepen and lengthen due to the amount of pre-work I invest in it that takes all of me to emerge in and “draw” forth.
Sacred tattoo design created for entire left arm. The bottom portion on the inner forearm, extending up to the whole upper arm. I only created the left half of the upper arm (the darker portion), as that part had to be integrated with a tattoo she already had there which included her Dutch heritage (coat of arms and tulips along with Dad’s name) and reverence for her father on the right and center (the lighter portion). She wanted to integrate her new journey that has opened with Reiki and the expansive path ahead of service from being more in her essence, along with connections with family and love.
And designs continue to align with energetic things on the collective or personal landscapes, which is always such a magickally synchronous unfolding.
This is just the forearm piece of the above design, as I created it in two parts since this one opened the flow for the vision on the second upper arm piece that unfolded in clarity, as we journeyed deeper in dialogue after the creation of this one. The inspiration actually came to me in the shower. I am constantly working!
So, it has taken me longer than it used to, to move through designs, not to mention, my life is much fuller with the increased balance I’m creating for personal and service.
This is ultimately all tied together since my optimal condition reflects on the work I am able to do and provide for others.
Because of the increased amount of work involved with these designs that begins the moment someone commissions me and continues as a thorough exploration through the extensive life journeys I read from each person where I then help people to bring to life the most optimally integrated symbolism for empowerment, I’ve been guided that my rate had to increase in reflection to my personal investment on all levels.
This sacred tattoo design is quite large and so deeply rich of her life’s journey, challenges, and transmutation of it all into the essence of who she is today and continues to become as a result of her growth. It fills the upper and mid back and extends through right shoulder blade and up on to top of shoulder to connect with an already there lotus my client has sitting on the front of the shoulder, and then it wraps and flows from around solar plexus area through waste and some of ribs.
I’ve been sharing that this would happen come the first of the new year and it is now in effect.
I understand this may affect some people’s ability to work with me, however I believe the people meant to will, and being that I can’t possibly take on all of the inquiries I receive on this, it helps me to be able to balance and focus my time on other areas of my work needing my attention now too.
I am currently booked until March, but if you decide you’d like to embark on this journey with me to co-create your most beautiful reflection of you, as an embodiment of “spiritual skin” you can find all of the necessary information to understand the process, along with new rate and how to place your deposit to get on my waiting list, here:
Farewell For Now ~ I’ll Be Offline September 1st Through November 30th
I thought about how I could likely write a really long post as this last one before I head offline on my 3 month sabbatical, but am guided to make this brief and instead share a simple message to leave with you in the form of the video below that speaks a message of the heart.
While it seems like long that I’ll be gone, with the way time moves like a flash, before you know it I’ll be back again, although much will have transpired not only for myself, but I know for each of you as well.
When I return I’ll share about my process and experiences during these months away, and will look forward to catching up on yours.
A few simple reminders as I leave, along with clarity on this time away, as I’ve received a lot of messages where it seems people haven’t understood what this time means for me or some of the services I offer.
This three month personal sabbatical is about just that….it is for personal things, of which involve creative projects, personal nurturing and listening within, and now also a physical transition from house to RV living, which just so happened to coincide with this time off, but was not planned as such.
I am NOT embarking yet on the grand RV adventure, although perhaps might do small jaunts here and there for several days or a week at a time, but I’ll still be stationed in Orange County at a beach-side RV park, until further pieces unfold. It’s all a process. In the meantime, I’m so looking forward to simplified living and following my heart.
I won’t be online, so basically off-grid to everyone, and unable to answer messages, emails, and questions. I am basically creating a Tania bubble without distractions or energetic pulls.
In terms of services, they will all (at least the ones I will continue to feel called to offer) be available when I return beginning December 1st. I will be offline September 1st – November 30th.
There will be new offerings upcoming in the time I return that will continue to evolve and be presented at the times I feel guided to offer them. I’ve gotten hits on how things are evolving and so I’ll be sharing that little by little when I return. I may also be shifting gears with focuses, as I am following the energy of the collective’s needs, coupled with my own energetic shifts, so greater emphasis will be placed on specific offerings, as well as new ones that have shown up, as mentioned.
In terms of sacred tattoo designs. I’ve received an influx of messages in the last few weeks, right before heading off. So to clarify those questions being asked, please visit this link, below, for more important information on details about working with me on co-creating a design when I return. It addresses the waiting list that is now at Januray 2016, upcoming rate changes, and how you can still schedule a design with me while I’m away:
Answers About Sacred Tattoo Designs For While I’m Away
I’ve already been asked to teach a Reiki 3 Master Teacher workshop in December when I return and a Crystal Magick workshop, so I’ll keep you posted at that time on those and their dates here locally from a new location.
I’ve also been asked to offer other things and been needing to support people and the energy showing up in myself in different ways. So I’ll put that into play and/or bring them to you more upon return.
I may also know then, more about the evolving plan for the adventure. Right now it’s a day-by-day process that calls for trust, patience, and listening for the alignments.
When I do return, I’ll be sharing and working from my new abode on the RV. The new space will create its own shifts with things.
While I’ll miss connecting with you, honestly, I am very excited to have this time to myself, as it is much needed and being integrally guided.
That experience of feeling comfort with physically removing myself and being on my own more or altogether, comes from having a sense of peace within myself, and also knowing and experiencing the unity and love no matter where I am and if I’m alone.
I know that distance never separates us, regardless, as the connection is always experienced in the heart and soul no matter where one is on Earth or beyond. A good reason for, and exercise in, practicing telepathy! 😉
Telepathy is something I use constantly with my dear friends, clients, animal companions, and souls off-Earth, and especially my Faery sis, Laura. She and I are always going through mirroring things (whether exactly or in relative ways), or experiences that balance out one another at different spectrums that unite, despite our rarely ever connecting in person or even by voice on the phone. You can likely keep up with energetic things that may be evolving with me during these three months, by following along her journey at her blog. 😉
I’ll leave you with this video message, shared with me today by my Cosmic brother, Amaru, whom I’ve journeyed with in Peru and beyond. A perfect, simple, and beautiful expression of what I feel in my heart.
Here’s to it really being a good day…EVERY DAY that you are alive in your body on Earth.
In love and creative magick always.
See you soon.
Answers About Sacred Tattoo Designs For While I’m Away
This last design I completed feels like the perfect send off before heading out for activating and igniting new beginnings from the core essence within.
I’m sharing it along with some answers to questions that I’ve been receiving, so that hopefully things will be clear while I’m unable to assist.
I’ve been getting a lot of questions about sacred tattoo designs in these last weeks before I head off on my 3 month sabbatical, even though I’ve posted several messages on it.
So just to help clarify things for everyone, as likely timing hasn’t aligned for everyone to see the messages, I thought I’d share details again.
I will not be available for questions, emails, and messages regarding tattoos beginning tomorrow.
That said, while I am away between September 1st and November 30th you can still place a deposit for a tattoo design at my website here:
There is a waiting list that has already started for when I return, which will be December 1st.
I can maybe squeeze in one more December client, if you’d like a design done by end of the year, but we’re really looking at January of 2016 for booking.
Don’t wait until I return to schedule a design, unless you don’t have any time restraints on when you need it, as people will have continued booking on the calendar while I’m away and so you’ll be placed next on the list, from where ever I’m booked out at that time.
There is likely going to be a rate increase when I return, beginning 2016, so if you place a deposit between now and December, you’ll lock in the current rate.
If you have a budget, we can work around that to ensure supporting your needs, but just be aware that this limits the size and detailing possible. I have been able to successfully stay within budgets when that is provided.
Size and detail will determine the amount of time it takes so I can only provide guesstimates on this from my end. So if in fact you have a budget, just let me know that when you place your deposit in the comments and we will discuss details when I’m ready to begin working on your design.
I create designs. Your tattoo artist will do the inking.
I only work in pencil. Color will be chosen between you and your tattoo artist.
Consulting is part of the process so when you place your deposit, we will then discuss all details when I get to your design, as I do them in order of deposits received.
I work in flow of the energy presenting itself and sometimes even time scheduling may shift slightly, as I can’t determine how things will progress with the channeling, how long the consulting will take, and when I hear back from clients. It ALWAYS, however, and I mean ALWAYS, aligns perfectly.
Any other questions likely are answered at the link above in the comments about the process.
Please read the details so you understand how it all works, as chances are, the answers to your questions can be found there if you take the time to read through them.
Thank you so much to everyone for your interest in my design work. It is something I am very passionate about supporting people with in co-creation and I look forward to continuing that journey when I return!
The Uniqueness of Sacred Tattoo Designs ~ Reflecting the Colors of the Rainbow that We Are
Sharing a couple more recent sacred tattoo designs I’ve had honor to co-create with some incredible souls.
While again, I’m not sharing the intricacies of the symbolism, due to lack of time, but also feeling that the images speak volumes for themselves and allow people to get what is meant for them to receive in their own way when viewing them, I did want to share these two together.
I’m finding that less is more and wanting to empower people to tune into heart and intuition in partnership with mind, to find their own messages and answers, rather than focusing solely on left brain and mind alone.
And afterall, a picture paints a thousand words.
These two pieces are both powerful in their own ways, but oh so different in style, reflecting the unique souls they are created for, showing you how beautiful each spectrum of the rainbow we all are, providing richness to the whole by authentically shining the light of our uniqueness.
The first is an incredibly large, epic piece that will cover my client’s full back – he happens to be 6’6″! It represents who he beautifully is in essence and all that was, is, and is to come. Wow is all I can say!
The other will grace my client’s right upper arm/shoulder and curve all the way down towards her lower inner arm, where another design we created already sits. So I was working with an enhancement to that one to reflect a branching off of a new path along her journey. This one has a graceful Maori tribal influence that spoke to her essence and life path, mixed with a little personal and organic flair to symbolize specific things – magickal!
I can’t express enough the honor I feel to be a part of these channeled co-creations. It is a gift that keeps on giving and has aligned me with soul family connections that are so valued.
I’ll be sharing another shortly, but for now, just a quick update on sacred tattoo designs,as I approach going offline beginning September 1st – just one more full day remaining tomorrow!
I’m pretty much booked for December in terms of sacred tattoo designs. I might be able to squeeze in one more if someone really needs a design done by end of this year.
Otherwise, we’re looking at January of 2016 for scheduling designs.
Again, although I’ll be offline and unavailable for questions beginning this Tuesday, September 1st, you will still be able to place a deposit and schedule your design for when I return, which is a good idea to do rather than wait until I’m back, as the calendar will continue to book up.
For support with co-creating a sacred tattoo design please visit this link for details and how to schedule yours: Life-Changing Tattoos
If you have any questions, please inquire before September 1st, as I won’t be available for emails for 3 months starting at that time. You can contact me here: Contact Tania Marie
A Quick Reminder ~ The Countdown Continues
I’ll be online just 5 more days after today.
I’m so excited and every day edges more steps (in some cases leaps) toward the things I’m focused on manifesting. It’s been an amazing unfolding I’m grateful for.
August 31st is the last day you’ll see me here or anywhere online, as September 1st begins my 3 month sabbatical, which will be a personally focused time solely.
I’ve been immersed in completing work before then, but if you have any questions and need assistance, please message me before September 1st, as I won’t be available to answer messages beginning then until December 1st.
I’ll be sharing some last words on the 31st before I head off, including some things to look forward to, but in the meantime I continue to be guided to share things here on my blog that I hope will inspire you into your own version of ecstatic living of your dreams.
Reminder:
While I won’t be available to answer questions until December 1st, you can still schedule sacred tattoo designs during the 3 months I’m off for when I return, by placing a deposit at the link here: http://spiritualskin.com/lifechangingtattoos.html
A waiting list is already started and after this week, it’s looking like December may already be fully booked, which means we’re looking at January.
So, if you are in fact interested in working with me and have a timeline for your tattoo, then you may not want to wait until I’m back in December, as the spots will continue booking.
There may also be a rate increase for 2016 when I return, so booking now will lock in the current rate.
Will miss my friends here, but also am deeply inspired by experiencing myself more ecstatically during my time away.
In love and creative magick!
More Magickal Sacred Tattoo Designs
As I expressed in an earlier post, I will not be sharing any information about the recent sacred tattoo designs I’ve been working on over the last month or two because I haven’t the time to with everything going on and wanting to focus energy on the current pieces I AM working on.
Today, I’m sharing a couple more really magickal ones and as always, I hope you enjoy what ever they reflect for you, as while the designs are custom created to each individual’s soul, that always carries a beautiful collective energy that others connect with and are affected by through viewing them.
I’m continually amazed at what keeps channeling through and always so aligned with current collective energies abound, as I’m sure you can see in the designs.
The first so reflective of a New Earth energy we are integrating, activating, nurturing, and healing. The second of course really synchronous with Lion energy being so prevalent these days with the passing of Cecil, our entering the Lion’s Gateway on 8-8-8 and yesterday’s Leo New Moon.
So it’s pretty amazing that they are also reflective of the individuals they were created for. Dual-packed significance always!
I will have one or two more shares by end of the month, as I complete the last designs I’m working on before heading off-grid beginning September 1st.
So grateful to be able to do this work with such amazing clients who honor the sacred process and have all been so wonderfully patient.
Remember that although I’m fully booked through August 31st for designs, you can book a design with me for when I return.
I have a waiting list already started for December – December is actually almost full – so if you’d like to co-create a design with me you can place your deposit and lock in the current rate at the link here:
You’ll be able to continue scheduling design work with me while I’m away for the 3 months by doing that. Just be aware that I will not be available to discuss designs, but you can reserve your spot.
I work on a first-come-first-serve basis, based on deposit commissions received and must honor that.
There is likely going to be a rate increase when I return, so that’s something to keep in mind. If you place your deposit before December, you’ll lock in the current rate, which will be honored.
If you have any questions, please inquire before September 1st, as I won’t be available for emails for 3 months starting at that time. You can contact me here: Contact Tania Marie
Some people have preferred to read my book, Spiritual Skin ~ Sacred Tattoos: More than Skin Deep, especially if they are new to sacred tattoo designs, before embarking on this journey.

A Montage of Sacred Tattoo Designs
A large right shoulder blade design
As you know I’ve been working away on sacred tattoo designs alongside everything else here…life is full indeed and SO RICH!
I’ve shared how much more involved designs have been these days, reflecting a lot of potent shifts and energy being embraced and activated. And I don’t like to rush the process and never force things…it’s all about aligning with that perfect flow that then lights the way with clarity.
A large upper, center of back design over heart chakra
And between everything, including my having been away a lot on top of the increased time needed with each client, I haven’t had time to post each individual design, as I usually do.
So, being that people have continually been asking to see more designs and what is possible to create, I thought I’d compile a little montage of just some of the designs that I’ve been working on for you today.
These are not only very powerful pieces, but incredibly and deeply embedded with very meaningful symbolism that I honor so deeply to be able to be part of supporting and bringing to life.
The designs are reflections of the souls they are created for and deserve utmost reverence.
I’ll share more again near the end of the month when able to.
A full left inner wrist and forearm design
I will not be sharing any information about them, as I haven’t the time to, but I think you’ll see by the images…just how powerful and layered the energies have been and hopefully you’ll enjoy what ever they reflect for you, as while the designs are custom created to each individual’s soul, that always carries a beautiful collective energy that others connect with and are affected by through viewing them.
People are always surprised, when they see the designs, by just what can be created and symbolically layered into a tattoo design that will shift your energy when worn and embodied.
Dual essence/business logo and potential tattoo design
I thank all of my clients for their patience both with their designs and email messages that I need to address one at a time these days due to their involvement. It’s really wonderful to have such conscious clients that understand the perfection of divine unfolding.
Things are moving along, as there seems to be a real opening right now with all of the energy and so I’ve been moving through each of the rest of the designs quite rapidly – doing more a week than I ever have.
They will all easily be completed by end of the month before I begin my sabbatical on September 1st.
So, if you’re waiting on yours, it’s on the way!
Remember that although I’m fully booked through August 31st for designs, you can book a design with me for when I return.

Summer Opportunities to Positively Transform Your Life
ENERGY GUIDANCE 5-Week Intensive:
This is an opportunity for 2 more people ONLY, as a spot has filled since my newsletter post. This opportunity is for the time period between now and August 31st. Details below.
There are a few things people don’t know that I do or offer, as I don’t talk much or at all about them. This is one of them. And the others you may learn more about when I return from sabbatical.
You may have remembered I used to offer intuitive support emails that was a version of this, but via email.
But I have on occasion offered guidance via phone for those people who really desired and needed it. I’ve shifted my processes around with this, however, based on what I feel to be most supportive, as I realized that creating a very specific focal timeline and committed process was the most efficient use of both of our energies and time, which got things moving more quickly within that committed partnership.
This is not meant to be a psychic reading or quick-fix. I won’t entertain these kinds of expectations, as I choose not to enable people, but to empower them.
This is a five week intensive, working with me once a week via a one hour call, except for the first week, which will be twice to kick off things and set the intents. So that’s 6 one-hour sessions in five weeks.
What I provide is energy guidance, which is not only support with the intent and goal you bring to the table, practical tools, exploration into your hidden truths, and shadow, but all the while providing you energetic support during our conversation that will help with the blocks, removing fears, move energy, move forward, help you to manifest, and provide the opportunity for integrative healing on deep levels to take place more rapidly.
It’s like receiving a Reiki super-charged session, but with added benefits, which provides an optimal environment for you to make your shifts in the way that mirrors your commitment level.
It’s a partnership of support to help motivate, activate, nurture, empower, inspire, reveal, provide healing support, and kick start things into gear that you want to create and move through in your life.
I am a mirror that reveals truths – both what you would and wouldn’t want to see – with compassionate responsbility. If that is something you are willing to embrace and take responsibility in, then this may be for you.
So if you’re willing to commit to empowering your life, to open your heart courageously and vulnerably, to be willing to explore new perspectives and let go of the old, want change in a big way, want help in seeing things more clearly and getting focused, and are willing to take immediate action and steps, then this may be the perfect opportunity for you.
Your investment into you:
$222 per individual Energy Guidance session if you pay-as-you-go
(This includes 1 hour a week, 2 hours the first week, of guidance with me via the phone while you also receive energetic support throughout the call to help move energy and provide the best possible opportunity for transformation)
If paid separately in this manner of pay-as-you-go, with payment due before your scheduled session:
6 sessions will be a personal investment of $1332
OR, do it as a one-time package and receive your first session for only $1:
That’s only $1111 for the entire 6 session package – SAVINGS of $221 with one session for ONLY $1
If you have questions or want to set up your Energy Guidance 5 week intensive with me, please message me here: Contact Tania Marie
The 5 week session must be completed by August 31st and there are only 9 weeks remaining, plus I am only taking up to 2 more clients for this right now, so please don’t wait until the last minute, as I don’t have the ability to squeeze everything in and don’t operate that way in general, as quality is my focus. The last possible day to schedule your 5 week intensive is July 26th.
So if you want to create an impactful shift this summer and are tired of hitting a wall, let me know.
REIKI:
Good news for any locals still wanting to either review their Reiki training or want to jump aboard and empower their lives. These two private workshops are now open to others joining:
Tuesday, July 28th – Reiki 3 Master Teacher Workshop
Sunday, August 16th – Reiki 1 & 2 Accelerated Workshop
Remember I’m not scheduling any more group workshops and I’m off on sabbatical beginning September 1st, so thanks goes out to these people for welcoming whom ever is called to join them.
Please message me for details.
*** Important note about registering: I’ve always provided a partial refund, minus a non-refundable (but fully creditable) deposit to those who find themselves needing to cancel a workshop, as I know how things come up when embarking on this journey, as well as know there are many factors at work in aligning things. However, due to the amount of time I spend preparing the material, printing, creating certificates, accountability, and setting the time aside to invest in each person, I’ve had to make adjustments to this, as I have ended up teaching privates on multiple days due to these shifts, which normally incurs more time and investment. So, for this reason, your investment into you is non-refundable when you register for a Reiki workshop. If for any reason you can’t make the workshop that you’ve scheduled with me, you will be provided full credit to use toward a future Reiki workshop that we mutually schedule and/or you join. Credit must be used within 3 months of cancellation, or an agreed upon time period if this is not attainable for what ever reason.
CRYSTAL MAGICK:
I didn’t have it on my radar to teach another Crystal Magick Workshop before I take my personal time off, but I’ve suddenly in the lasts 2 weeks received a few separate inquiries wondering if I will be teaching one soon again. I’m still on the fence about it, since my time is filling for the next two months, but am willing to explore the potential of offering this workshop once more before September 1st. That said, if you really are interested in this workshop here locally and would like me to offer it, please let me know. I will make my decision based on the amount of serious inquiries that would be ready to register if I do so. I may be open to this, but only as a one time, group workshop – no privates – so please also let me know what days you’d be available to attend, if in fact you’re interested and we’ll see if it’s meant to be.
SACRED TATTOO DESIGNS:
I’m still working away on the last designs I have scheduled before September 1st. They’ve been involving more time and process than usual, so thank you for the patience.
I am able to take only ONE more client before September 1st, as a spot has filled since my newsletter post.
Otherwise, you can schedule with me for the end of the year/beginning of 2016 when I return from sabbatical.
