Kristina's Labyrinthine Symbol of Hopi

    A few weeks back, I met Kristina, after spotting the top of her tattoo peeking out from under her shirt and reaching toward her neck.



    I was intrigued and asked her about it. She revealed it to be a much larger piece than I initially observed and explained that it is a Hopi symbol of mother-daughter unity that accompanies her on her spiritual journey through life.



    From what I can gather, this is a variation on the symbol for Tapu'a, or Mother Earth, and the maze-like construction of the emblem represents one's journey through life.

    She had this inked at a shop in Camp Hill, Pennsylvania.

    Thanks to Kristina for sharing this tattoo with us here on Tattoosday!
