I have chosen Willow as part of my name because they have always been my favorite tree. They look so serene, warm, and welcoming. They love water, as do I. The Willow has been known as a tree of dreaming, inspiration and enchantment. Their wood has often been used in rituals for enhancement of psychic abilities honoring the moon (due to it's connection to water), and to draw love. All of which, are things I honor.
Silver has also been one of my favorite colors, especially for magickal work. Silver has a strong connection to the moon and water. It gives a sense of balance and helps with mental, emotional and physical cleansing.
One thing about me is that I have a major soft spot for animals. I have always felt a strong connection with them, especially felines. One of my favorite animals in the feline species is the Lynx, a very beautiful creature. They almost look like a big house cat, with tufts of black fur on their ears. To me, they have a very proud and wise appearance. They are mainly noctorunal (I like the night too), and are very protective of their territory. The Lynx are mostly solitary, as I am known to be most of the time.
So, from this day forward, I will be known as Willow SilverLynx (in the wiccan community only).
Blessed be.
Congratulations! A magical name is such a personal, special thing. I'm glad you found one that you love!
ReplyDeleteYes, I did design my tattoo myself. It took forever to figure out everything I wanted! I had a great tattoo artist, too, so that helped.
ReplyDeleteI love the little star tattoo you have! I am a total tattoo junkie. My husband actually doodled a little lobster on a note last week, and I put it up so I can use that exact picture for my next tattoo! I haven't told him what I'm going to do yet, so it'll be a surprise :O)
