Tattoo with symbolism?

So you are another one of those generic Native Americans....the kind who think we all share one culture and that beliefs and traditions don't differ from Nation to Nation, tribe to tribe? I have to assume that, as you only posted the generic "I'm native american so if there are native american symbols even better."......as if all our symbols are the same.

If you need to ask strangers on the internet, for ideas for a tattoo that you are going to have on your body forever....then you aren't ready for a tattoo.....you are getting it for the sake of getting one. A certain picture, design or symbol should call to you. The skin where it needs to go should ache to have it there. You should feel like you can't live without it permanently etched on your flesh.......if you don't, then you'll just be another person with a random tattoo that you will eventually forget the reason why you even got it.

Something as simple as a circle can get the point across.

Everything in life is a circle.

I suggest thinking a little bit though. Go over ideas that mean something to you personally.

A tattoo artist can always help you come up with original ideas.

So, you're "native american"? What do your tribal elders say? You're NOT native american, obviously, or you wouldn't be asking total strangers about symbols. You'd know them.

And they are different for each culture. Saying "native american culture" is like saying "Causcasian culture". There are many different ones.

And some tribes, such as mine, prohibit tattoos. Again, you'd know that if you really were native.

I would vote for you to wait till you find one that makes it something to you.I waited for my Ist was 40yo and it had to mean something to me.Now I am looking for my 4th
