What does this tattoo symbolize?

I think it means life and death, life on the top and death on the bottom, meaning, that life is before than death and is more valuable!! Hope this helps u out!

Death...

I looked all over and could not find that one although I did find several similar to it. Image search Tribal Tattoos and you will see what I mean. Sorry that I could not be more help. It might help if you knew if it was a Tribe specific tattoo.

Honestly, the first thing that came to my mind when I saw it was a hurricane. I dont see how it symbolizes death, but that's just me. It looks more like an elemental design, not so much spiritual.

That austillian everlgtale tattoo mean good and evil in dram time study austilian nathive tribe tattoos or apmology art study coutrue back grounds.

Madda-madda-boom-boo. (he he)

On a serious note, perhaps it is a variation of the Yin-Yang symbol ...

looks like two hanggliders circling a thermal.

it looks like one of those prints out of the tattoo store's idea books...

I'm not sure I haven't seen it before it looks unusual.

Sorry, never seen that before
