Description
This is the design I used for the tattoo I got on my back a few months ago. Here is a pic of the finished tattoo: [link]The base design (wings and shape) was created by here [link]
I sharpened a lot of the lines and then modified it to add some of my own designs in the middle, and the unicursal hexagram up the top.
The design in the middle I did many years ago. It's a combination of several symbols from different cultures around the world. These include:
Chinese symbol meaning 'the way' (which is what the Tao is known as)
Star of David
Celtic Cross
Aum symbol
Serpent
Alchemical Symbol for the Quintessence
Unicursal Hexagram
I combined all these different symbols to reflect the idea embodied in the saying 'One song, many voices.'

That combination is very well done and i like the way you put so much thought into it, not just as a tattoo but as a design itself. It's really beautiful in it's own way. Something we can all appreciate

Thanks ^_^ I put years of thought into it, and there's a whole philosophy behind it (sort of), so I'm really glad you like it.
