One of the most requested tattoo designs, without a doubt is The Eye of Ra or The Eye of Horus. Why are so many people interested in this design? Well, maybe because it's spiritual significance, or they just like how it looks. But we can't deny that this Egyptian symbol is truly amazing. I'm a lover of all that has to do with Ancient Egypt, and of course, the Eye of Ra is definitely one of my favorites. My husband and I have this tattoo, mine is on my left wrist and my husband's in on the back of his neck.

The meaning of this magical and protective symbol is what made us to do it, and I just love it. If you are thinking in getting the Eye of Ra for your next tattoo, read on... I will give you some extra tips and good information before you go and make up your mind if this design is for you or not.

The Meaning of: The Eye of Ra or The Eye of Horus

Is a powerful symbol of protection also known as the "Eye of Horus" and the "all seeing eye". The symbol was frequently used in jewelery made of gold, silver, lapis, wood, porcelain, and carnelian, to ensure the safety and health of the bearer and provide wisdom and prosperity. However, it was also known as the "Eye of Ra", a powerful destructive force linked with the fierce heat of the sun which was described as the "Daughter of Ra".

Are Tattoos Painful?

My Personal Experience

*** That's my left wrist bleeding from the new tattoo --->

Yes, they are painful. Let me explain myself, first. I got my first tattoo back in 2001. It's an Aries Tribal and it's located on my lower back. When I got that one done it didn't hurt as much, well at least not as much as I was expecting it to be.

My husband have many tattoos on his body and he always complained about the pain. I guess it's all about how much pain a person can hold. Some people say that it doesn't hurt and others say that it hurts more than anything.

To tell you the truth, it does hurt, but I would say that the level of pain depends on the person and the location of the tattoo.

My second tattoo ( my left wrist Eye of Horus tattoo) picture above, hurt more than the one on my lower back. Why? I don't know, maybe it was because the skin on my wrist is more sensitive and the veins and nerves were exposed to the needle many times. It took only 25 minutes for the artist to finish my Eye of Horus tattoo on my left wrist.

I have heard that the more sensitive the area the painful the tattoo will be! SO, choose wisely and remember that the pain only last a couple of minutes, but the art will last forever... It's worth the pain!!
