Cool. But weird.
Does the octopus have any particular spiritual significance...?

Probably to do with me a water symbol - I'm Cancer in western zodiac and a water dragon in the Chinese zodiac.. I also found that the Octopus is symbolic of creative force in ancient symbology, which is kind of cool.. though in certain Red Indian mythology, the Octopus is a servant of the underworld..

You have that etched into your skin, and then promptly sunburn it?
Do you
like pain?!
Anyways, digging the psuedo-Cthullu artwork.

As a staunch ally in the Cthulhu Battlefront meself, I think your Octopussy is way too cute to take over the world.
A radioactive Cthulhu was waaaaay better
As an aside, beware of the sunburn, anyways.
I think it is a rather ermmmmmm unwise idea to place a neck-tattoo in the middle of the summer. Always keep it covered when the sun's shining, and don't go a-swimming in either salt water or swimming pools.
I know from experience. Unless you find it's cool to have your octopussy come out in relief from time to time...
Anyway, congrats on the tattoo, not my personal choice of design, but it's CUTE!
IZ.

Nice design, but isn't it strange to have a tattoo that you will never actually see?

lol.. nah, I did kind of think about that, but it's just somewhere where I think its a bit more noticeable as such..
And there's always mirrors.. though I'm so used to shaving my head with one mirror I didn't know what to do when given one to look at it yesterday at the tattoo parlour..
