Tattoo Meaning

The hamsa, also known as the Hand of Fatima, is a universal sign of protection, good fortune, and happiness, originating in Middle Eastern and North African cultures. The central eye symbolizes vigilance and spiritual awareness, warding off the evil eye. This tattoo embodies a desire for safeguarding, blessings, and a connection to ancient wisdom, reflecting a personality that values faith, positivity, and inner strength.

Who it suits

Placement-wise, this hamsa would look powerful on the upper arm, showcasing its symmetry and detail, or across the chest, as a statement of faith and protection. Alternatively, it would be incredibly striking as a larger piece spanning the shoulder blade, creating a visually arresting focal point.
