Justin shares his pentacle design, and says, "I received this tattoo on my 18th birthday. It is a simple pentacle design outlined by characters that reflect the purpose of the tattoo:
Top (spirit): The rune of love.
Top left (air): The rune of friendship.
Top right (water): The symbol of bane. Which I implemented as protection from illness.
Bottom left (earth): The Triquetra.Which I use in my rituals to symbolize protection
from physical harm.
Bottom right (fire): The sword. My personal representation of strength and honor.
