Uta's Tattoos: Fire Element


FIRE ELEMENT

The alchemy symbol for fire is a triangle. Uta has numerous triangles throughout his tattoos. These represent upward mobility, forward motion, rising flames and aspirations to solar embodiment. Remember, he has many symbols related to the sun in his tattoos as well. The purposes for the fire symbol are meditation, affirmation, channeling, devotion (his devotion to his friendship with Yomo?), attention honing, free association (I always believed he isn’t really associated to anyone in particular. Maybe he’s a double agent), journeying.

Fire is present in the tarot card The Devil. The card represents being enslaved to something or someone. This could be an idea, relationship, a way of life, a job, a bad habit or a self-destructive attitude. Could Uta feel enslaved to the Clowns, his idea of fun, being a ghoul, and we know that he is a violent and sadistic individual. The traits of this card are ego, loss, error, addiction, illusion, disruption and enslavement.

The fire element’s general traits are: change, joy, strength, power, protection, change from one state to another, enlightenment, truth, knowledge, purification, related to birth and death – the cycle of life (again, Uta has various tattoos of circles which are linked to Ouroboros which symbolizes eternity and cycles of life), great destroyer, creativity, energy, passion, sexuality, authority, consumption, the untamed. The symbol of the triangle represents the male. It means action and movement; path to the truth, light, and transformation through self-motivated activities. It is a celestial sigil for Mars and the Sun.

Fire is also associated with the Sun sign Sagittarius which is Uta's zodiac sign.
