I'm getting my third tattoo in April and thought id share my idea with yall  It's Kokopelli, the Cherokee god of music. My heritage is pretty much heavy on the Cherokee, so I thought I would salute to my heritage. I'm not getting that exactly, ill design it on my own, but that is the general idea

But yeah, thats cool as hell. I have a little (really little) stash box thats a ceramic/clay Kokopelli. I used to keep my bagseed in there because I thought it was a fertility god 
haha yeah he was known to carry songs on his back, and would bring fertility to women and crops too. So you are right about that.

Cage said: Awesome pic, looks like it'll come out awesome.
I've been thinking about getting a tattoo a lot lately, been considering it for a really long time now. Once I'm sure I've got all the stuff at the dentist straightened out, I might finally get it. The idea is to get LIAR tattooed on the inside of my bottom lip (upside down so it's right side up when I actually show it to people).
I'll be absolutely open and honest with the people that I show it to, and the people I don't show it to (like my parents), will never know that it even exists, and are the people I lie to.. 
my x best friend kayla had "cum here" tattooed on her lower lip inside...ughhhhghghhg that would hurt like fucking hell.

Yeah they look good, I particularly like the one that says "stop judgement" . What language is the writing in? I think you're beautiful btw 
I don't know what to get for my tattoo though. I could easily copy something from online or whatever but I want something unique that makes people think, not just look and go "oh thats cool". 
wow thank you lol...and its hebrew. the wrist one says "crucified alive in me" and the arm band is psalm 121 "i lift my eyes unto the hills, where does my faith come from?"
and def. take your time planning it out and sketching it. it took me a long time to get my wrist one just right.

Exactly. Kokopelli started as a story in what is now the American Southwest. Modern depictions of Kokopelli show him using a flute or something similar to a didgeridoo. In some of the old pictures that was his huge penis.
The picture in A7X's original post is gone now. I would have like to have seen it to guess what Cherokee story it was in reference to.
the one I have been told is that he carried songs on his back, and brought flowing fertility to women and their harvest.
