Also I am not completely sure where you heard the myth of the koi and the dragon. But it sounds interesting... There could be any number of myths of the koi. But in a most common sense the koi is a sign of good fortune, when you see them eating the cherry blossoms as they fall on the water....In any case it doesnt matter which way the koi is facing. And the koi is symbolic for many things.... |
Wow! Gorgeous tatoo! I would never get a small design - if I were to ever do something like that, it would have to be something large and flowing with lots of details and color. Out of pure curiosity, how much does something like that set you back? As somebody else already said, it's definitely worth it, but I have absolutely no clue as to how much something like that would cost.
Beautiful tat.
