ok seeing lots of discourse on maleifics as tattoos and i would like to share my experience of having The Tower tattooed on my back
1- when i got this tattoo my brain hadn’t made the connection btwn the tarot card and the Tower of Babel story. I just loved the story & the imagery. it wasnt until i was halfway through the tattoo did i realize what i had done
2- since getting this tattoo, rules have applied harsher to me than the had before. i used to kinda skate by and be able to talk my way out of punishments and consequences. no longer is that the case.
2.5- but the rewards have been exponentially better, better relationships better opportunities better “prizes” when i play the game “correctly” (everyones correct is different)
3- knowing what i know now i would still get this tattoo. i am better for it. a few spots i got my ass handed to me bc i forgot that now i have to pay attention to my behavior a bit more. all the bad things that happened to me were my own fault
4- if theres a lesson you need to learn, tattoo it on you. if you need an extra boost, tattoo it on you. i also have a phoenix tattoo that has proved a wonderful tool in aiding my moon. :) it isnt a death sentence.
