Questions about tattoo symbology
Hi, all my folks who have some experience with symbology or tattoos (or both)...
My sister and I are looking to get matching sister tattoos. We are representing both sides of our family: English-Irish and Norwegian. The tattoo design we have in mind at this point incorporates the Viking Vegvisir compass and an Irish sister knot. I just want to check in with people if they know if this is a legit sister symbol in Celtic knotwork. The most prominent ones I have found are this one or variations on the theme.
Another option I like is this one, but I'm leaning toward the three-pronged knot just because I've always liked sharp, defined edges.
Thoughts? Tips?
