Description
Character: Cobalt , he/him - owned by meI am back with another meta-art or story piece of Cobalt :'D
Also I tried to add my blue stripes to Coby's hair but it seems odd with him already having blue hair x'D
Today I felt like sharing two ideas for tattoos I had thought of getting at some point
I have for a time wanted to get a tattoo yet have trouble finding out what it should be
What do I mean about this? Well I cannot remember who but somebody told me once that if you think about getting a tattoo try put the idea away and look back on it half a year later and see if you are still into the idea
That I am
Alright let me explain
The first idea is getting the Ansuz rune tattooed on my left arm (I know it is right here but I am left-right blind especially when I draw :'D)
This rather simple design have a lot of meaning to me - meaning in layers:
First layer is that I am a Dane who loves norse mythology - the ansuz rune will symbolise my love for my people's old stories and my heritage in the north
Secondly the rune has a lot of hidden meanings: among these are the gift of life, knowledge, inspiration, communication, sound and music - since I have a passion for music, feel creative and often inspired to create and study as a a psychologist major I see these meanings as fitting to me
The last layer is possibly the most personal; Ansuz is the Old Norse rune for the letter 'A' - there's a lot of words you can define me by that starts with the letter 'A' - among these are autistic, asexual and possibly aromantic
This will be on my left arm to symbolise my abnormality as a left handed individual which again also goes back to my neurodiversity *not that all lefties are neurodiverse*
The second idea is newer: I only started thinking about it this summer when I broke down in the middle of a concert at summer camp and my teacher, finding me with tears running down my face used the goddess Diana *I have written a song about Diana* to help me find grounding again
This idea is the symbol of said godess a simplified bow and arrow on my right arm
I am still not sure how this will look tho so this is only an idea
Now to the symbolism of this one:
First up while I like norse mythology I also love Greek and Roman mythologies a lot
Next up the goddess Artemis, or her roman counterpart Diana, is - outside of being the moon and hunting goddess - the protector of childhood especially young girls not yet married. She is famous for claiming her disinterest in romance and sex from day one making her, in my simple mind, an aro ace icon
Thirdly as mentioned above I wrote a song about Diana last year so the goddess is now also linked to wonderful memories of starry nights and wonderful people at summercamp, getting an idea to a melody the first day back to this magical place writing a melody on pianos at 2 am
So that's my ideas
