Question: I have 6 tattoos, a dragon a cobra a panther a shark a mermaid and the Egyptian god anubis and my next one will be a fairie. Doesn’t one receive power from a tattoo. and is there a reason for what tattoo one gets. Subconsciously is there a deeper reason then the one explained for the meaning of a tattoo.
Answer from ascended master Jesus through Kim Michaels:
Contrary to what many people, including those who follow native spirituality, seem to think, one does not receive spiritual power from a tattoo. One might receive energy from a tattoo, but it is not spiritual energy.
Many of the things people do to adorn the physical body are actually showing a disrespect for the body temple. This includes tattoos, body piercing and even extreme use of make-up. Such practices originally sprang from a hatred of the Mother because it is the mother energy that is used to create the body temple.
Therefore, I highly recommend that people abstain from such practices. I realize that most young people in today’s world will ignore my recommendation. Yet I can assure you that defiling the body temple in any way, including the use of drugs, will not advance your spiritual growth. It will only slow down that growth, and for many people it can contribute to stopping that growth altogether.
There is a psychological reason for everything you do. You will be attracted to a tattoo that outpictures what is going on in your subconscious mind. Images have a very powerful impact on the mind, and throughout history images have been used to raise people’s consciousness or misused to control people’s consciousness.
In today’s world, images are misused more than at any time in the past. This is especially true for images of sex, death and any disharmonious image with jagged lines, asymmetrical forms and dark or clashing colors.
As I explain elsewhere, the world is created by images held in the universal Christ mind. On this planet, human beings have influenced God’s original creation, and this has been done in large part by the imperfect images people hold in their minds. Therefore, the forces that seek to disrupt God’s plan and enslave humankind have made skillful use of imperfect images to control people and cause them to co-create an imperfect world.
If you want to make maximum spiritual progress, you would do well to be very careful what type of images you allow entry into your mind. Your mind is your inner temple, so don’t bring anything into it that does not correspond to the level of spiritual consciousness you want to attain. Your body is your outer temple, so don’t do anything to it that would not support your spiritual growth.
