OK, So I've been thinking about getting a tattoo for awhile now and Ive just about decided to do it.



...it is especially associated with the Celtic tribes.

These symbols are called triskele or triskelion.

The Triskele is used to symbolize the cycles of life with in the three fold, or three spheres of influnce in the material world.
The three spheres (Land, Sea and Sky) represents the three aspects of the material world that are contained in every object. Each aspect ever flowing outward and always returning to the point from which it started.

I've also heard it represents the union between the past the present and the future...

Am thinking in a brown-amber color on my lower back 2-3inchess wide/up-down.

Thoughts?
