Jjomsborg Vineta 2014 Kai Kwe Faust by Wyrwanazramistnienia
The staff- You see me working here with a staff, wich is inspired by the "magic wands" we find in graves like Oseberg. They are made of wood with decorations and had "ritualistic purpose"
Some of them are made of metal and were classified as grill sticks for a long time.
As you can see, I have a different opinion about the usage of these staffs :)

Ratatoskr- the evil squirrel
One of the inhabitants of Yggdrasil is Ratatoskr, another malicious charakter, it runs up and down the trunk of the world tree, spreading gossip and twaddle from the eagle on top to Niddhoggr in the roots.
Who ever heard the little furry loose mouths call in the forest, believes it straight away.
Thanks for sending the pics :)

Fascination of the billy goat
Why is the billy goat so fascinating? It is a nasty beast, it smells bad, it attacks you, you can´t eat his meat, a symbol of maliciousness and all evil.
But without it you can not breed yur lifestock.
So I think, it stands among other things for the necesssary evil, that we have to approve in order to have a good life, like so many things...and off course for fertility ;)

Viking gods and goddesses tattoo-Skadi
Her fathers eyes got put by Odin in the sky as two stars and she is married to Njord, the god of the sea. Not a happy marriage, i should stress, because they are so different, she dislikes the sound of the seagulls and misses the mountains, he hates the howling of the wolves and misses the sea. Luckily in Scandinavia mountains and sea are right beside, so they change every nine days.
She lateron also fixes the snake over Lokis head, that drips her venom on him.

Tattoo Tarot

| Ace of coins by Kai Uwe Faust |
My teacher Astrid Köpfler initiated it, went around on the Tattoo Conventions globally, let an artist draw a card, that he or she had to design then. So every card is designed by a different Tattoo Artist.
The list includes big names like Colin Dale, Pat Fish,Christian Benvenuto, Theo Jack, Xtophe and so on.
It is a full usable set for divination and a unique piece of contemporary Tattoo Art.
