Dream of a blue tattoo
Posted by Rick MG at 11:34, 02 Dec 2008Recently I had a dream of a blue tattoo. It was a brilliant, bright royal blue. Someone else was preparing the dye in a big tub, which I had my feet in. I removed my feet, stained blue past my ankles, and I thought to myself that I'd always have blue feet now.
The tattooist prepared the needle, and began painting my right arm. It was a rough sketch at first, to be filled in piece by piece. A swirling pattern spiraled from my forearm up to my shoulder, and on my bicep a scarab beetle was sketched.
For one brief moment, the hairs on my arm became grey, and I thought I was looking at an old man's arm, possibly not even my own. Was I someone else in my dream? I can't be sure, but it was a jolting image to suddenly wonder, mid-dream, if it was my arm as it is now. Before this occurred, I was definitely myself in dream -- so did I become someone else, or age, after getting tattooed? I can't be sure.
I don't have any tattoos, never considered getting one. This dream literally came out of the blue.

Every experience in our lives leaves an unalterable mark in us. You could say we etch a tattoo in our souls for as long as we live.
