" There are tremendous amounts of energy and information packed into a single image, including your personal story. Your tattoo also contains the emotions, thoughts, and actions that make your story even bigger.

Other energies that we are often do not see, such as color, emotion, shape, and symbology, are also embedded in that image. This data is packed in a
tattoo much like a movie is packed on a DVD,
where that energy can be accessed and released so
that you and others experience it over and over
again. "
