Symbolism in Tattoos

Tattoo Symbolism overload!

Continuing our talk about symbolism in Tattoos, here’s one tattoo that is covering the bases.

Here are the symbols:

WHEEL OF DHARMA: Buddhist wheel of life and reincarnation.

The Star of David or hexagram. This is the symbol for judaism. But when surrounded by a circle, it is a symbol of the occult and represents the “divine mind” (a counterfeit of God’s wisdom.)

Ichthys - or the fish, is an ancient symbol of Christianity.

Om - in sanscrit. The sound of the universe.

Yin Yang -  A Chinese symbol for universal harmony and the unity between opposites: light/dark, male/female, etc. Yin is the dark, passive, negative female principle.

Other symbols are music symbols. But I don’t recognize the one in the middle.
