very nice, the black sun on your neck and the runes are very tied to fascism tho. At least a lot of them guys are into those images. I would like some nordic runes myself but they can have bad connotations. So do swatstikas/sayagawta celtic cross's vikings etc but lots of people have them any way so its not a big thing :)

A type of swastika is a religious and political party symbol in India. There are so many symbols that are offensive to some and attractive to others. A symbolic version of political correctness is just what we need in a world already so easily offended by everything. Some day people will be afraid to say or do anything in fear of offending others (except for those that enjoy offending others). A little understanding, tolerance, and reason might go a long way.

Oh i fully understand i have a whole hand of sayagata/swatsikas, i've lived in india,china and currently live in Thailand (for the last 5 years) and ofc swatstikas are on every thing. Just stating that black suns and runes are associated with the far right. Same as 5 pointed stars on the knees are associated with the russian mafia. I'm very tolerant personaly and there isn't much that can offend me. Altho if i saw some one with runes on there hand and a black sun i might be wondering if there a bit far right leaning which even if they were i wouldn't personal care, i grew up with people that turned into nazis, we just don't talk politics!

Oh I just saw these comments!

I personally don't see runes as very much of a Nazi thing. It is true that Nazis abused a few runes but I think as long as I don't have SS tattooed on my arm with a large swastika no one will mistake me as a Nazi ;) For me they represent Medieval European History and beliefs. The sun and moon are actually symbols in Alchemy...a sun can mean a million things.

Maybe it is different here but most of the people I know with such tattoos are Reenactors, into Viking Metal or connect it with their own heritage.

I study occultism and read old Alchemical or Hermetic Philosophy but I'm also a Medieval Reenactor and have been doing Viking Reenactment (and Kipchak) for 12 years so Norse Mythology interests me too. My design choices and future plans reflect that. :)
