His unique approach and beautiful energy made the whole process incredibly special. I must admit, I was simply drawn to his remarkable tattoo style, but the ceremony added an unexpected layer of meaning and connection. The final tattoo exceeded my expectations and serves as a constant reminder of this unforgettable journey. Highly recommend, whether you're seeking a ceremonial experience or simply admire his art."

I feel a deep connection with the Chakana symbol and with the Quechua people. The Chakana Symbol, or Andean Cross, is a powerful symbol from the Andean region, particularly the Incas. It comprises a square with four extending arms representing cardinal directions and realms of existence. Symbolizing harmony and interconnectedness, it holds deep spiritual significance, embodying the unity of the cosmos and the interdependence of all beings.

In the Quechua language, “chakana” is a blend of two words “chaka” meaning bridge and “hanan” meaning tall. The Inca believed that the Chakana was a bridge between the three worlds; the world of Gods, the world of Man; or Earth, and the world of the Dead; or the spiritual realm, which is why each side of the chakana is a 3-stepped pyramid.

The Incas believed that everything is connected to Mother Earth, or Pachamama, and she is in the center of everything with only a circular hole cut out in the middle representing the Sun god, or a portal to the unknown.
