Amanda's Phoenix
Amanda has two tattoos, one of which she shared with me at the end of August in the Penn Plaza Borders store.
This is the tattoo she designed:
Amanda was inspired by the "compelling mythology of phoenixes" and had Bobby at Modern Age Tattoo in Nanuet, New York, translate the design into the final product.
The quote, in Latin, "post tenebras lux" means "After darkness, light". This mirrors the life cycle of the mythological phoenix who dies, bound in flame, only to be reborn from the ashes. Clicking here will display the vast array of phoenixes that have appeared on Tattoosday previously.
In other words, even when things appear their darkest, affirmation is just within reach.
Thanks to Amanda for sharing this cool tattoo with us here on Tattoosday!
