Symbols or rune ideas for tattoos

[anfaegtelse._]

Hello, i wanted to get a full arm cover up and fill it with protection runes or stuff from that sort of angle, i already have the tetragamaton in mind not sure if i spelled it correctly but i'm looking for ideas!! Any suggestions??

This is something to think about for months even after you choose the runes. Maybe not to mix various traditions, like Christianity and paganism. It can become a problem.

Also be very certain of what you want, because tattoo is not cheap and it alters your body for the rest of your life. With religious symbols there can be big problem if you convert to another faith.

If you insist, first you might want to buy henna and paint something on your hand yourself or with help to see how the surroundings will react. Also don't forget that presence of tattoo can be big problem when looking for a job.

I have about 30 tattoos, i'm going to get a full arm cover up, and in that tattoo i want to get as much protection symbols as humanly possible, i was joking around with my ex the other day, she is a really bad person and practices witchcraft, that i wanted to become a mobile nuke, basically become that, protected to the absolute core, any sugestions?

Oh, that changes things.

Still I would take a proper planning. Protective symbols can be many and they can be even sorted to form protective symbol together, like in the case of YHVH you can do filling of the letters with each letter or entire name, like in this picture:

Then it is about how to position it etc... And I don't think that jealous god would like himself to be in presence of others... maybe except few of his angel servants.

So if i mostly wanted to get symbols for protection againts spells and left hand path stuff in general, where would you recomend i start?

You should start with symbols that hold power and have meaning to you. For example if I picked up a cross it wouldn’t magically protect me. I would have to have a connection to it on a spiritual and psychological level. If I were you I would choose symbols that hold spiritual significance in whatever spiritual background or religion you have for the best results. You could design a custom symbol or sigil based around your own beliefs and it would be more powerful than a rune someone suggested. If you get into Asatru or Thursatru there are runes or rune staves worth learning but you would have to be committed to their spiritual beliefs to get results.
