I was supposed to get a Virgo sign above my ankle because I thought it would not get extreme hurt on that place and I could also hide it when I need to. However, I could not find anything that I liked. The only one that I almost got was very complicated and the tattoo artist told me if I wanted to get it, it would have to be much bigger than I expected. "Seriously? I don't want such a big one!", said I.
Then I randomly searched online to look for something else and ultimately I came up with the one in the picture above. I have to be honest, I only thought it was a very unique symbol, but I did not understand what it was. Just until the tattoo was almost finished, I realized it is like an abstract sun symbol. Well, although it does not mean too much to my own personality but I am still happy because I love it. Btw, I came up with the idea about that meaning: " The sun shines the way I go"... Cheesy, isn't it? Lol!
Although I am quite happy about my fist tattoo, I still want some more. I mean one is never enough, rite? =)) I really really really want a Virgo sign on my body. I have been obsessed with my horoscope for so long and it means so much to me too. I was searching and looking and searching and looking... everywhere but nowhere I could find the symbol I loved. Then I thought: "Horoscope thing was originally from Greece. Why don't I have the word Virgo but in Greek? It would be so different and so me :D" And... here we go!
At the same time I got the Virgo tattoo, I also decided to get one more thing on the side of my foot. I always wanted to have some kinda phrase or something that is meaningful to my life. I have some of my friends who have some very good ones such as Dolce la vita, or Ce'st lavie or blah blah... (I don't quite recall). I want something similar to that, but not like that. I still want something different from others. Then I came across Carpe Diem. Well, basically it is in Latin, and it means Seize The Day. I literally knew that it is for me. I spent quite some time to find the font for Carpe Diem. There it is on my foot. I like it. My friends like it. I hope lots of people like it as well :D
