I am extremely happy with my choice after 8 years of research on the right design for me... MANY MANY MANY thanks to the beautiful and sweet Gypsy Paula, who is the original designer and also owner of the same drawing on her back! Muuuaaahhh!!! Together with the Spiral Goddess there are many other meanings there for me.... wings, a butterfly, a peacock, a squid, snails, flowers, a serpents' nest, celtic knots (protecting me from demons :-) !!!!)... anything else? Each with a story to tell... The pics (all by Carolina Kowarik) from the last session are posted on my album.... more to come! </div> Sat, 17 Dec 2005 02:23:16 GMT http://people.tribe.net/hipcirclesbellydance/blog/42c954b2-2e5e-40ac-be5d-781ce854ccc9 hipcirclesbellydance 2005-12-17T02:23:16Z
