finger

symbols communicate succinct, often powerful, messages

this finger tattooed on the middle finger, both redundant and clear, symbolizes an unwillingness to communicate further as well as frustration, anger, contempt

while the amethyst, often used to soothe one’s mind and emotions, is set in a ring – the eternal circle that cements bonds to self and others

this juxtaposition of profane and sacred, anger and peace, completion and continuation, also serves as a symbol of our complex layered feelings that often compete for expression
