Transmutation Circle Tattoo — Description
An FMA-inspired tattoo design I made back a long time ago.
When I made the design I used a runic glyph font for the logos, with many of the runes being proper runes with individual meanings (I wasn't aware at the time, oh so naive). So in terms of nordic runes, it's gibberish, but in literal typeface terms of what character each rune was assigned to this is what the symbols translate to;

"Power of the Mind
Power of the Heart
With my own two hands may I guide and shape my destiny"

After this design I had my error pointed out and I made a point to not use nordic rune fonts after that. I intended these designs to have some mystery to them, but at the end of the day these circles and glyphs are so you can impart your own message and meaning to them.

UPDATE:

If you like this design enough to want to get this tattooed, here are some things to consider;

- First of all, wow. I'm honoured you like the design enough to make it permanent.
- You want to tattoo this? Yes absolutely, go nuts!
- I made this design a long time ago and had very little understanding of how tattoos work, so take the design to a tattoo artist and get their professional advice on it, feel free to make any and all adjustments necessary to make it work better as a tattoo for you. You're the one making this permanent, so make sure its perfect for you.
