First of all let me explain what I have tattooed on my back. On the lower portion it's an abandoned church surrounded in a wooded area and I have tombstones with the souls of the dead rising up from the ground and going towards the sky. The upper portion has the spirits more defined and you could see them reaching for the sky. The night I got the lower part outlined the scariest thing happened to me.
I was getting ready to fall asleep and suddenly I felt really cold like something bad was going to happen. I was sleeping face down because I couldn't put too much pressure on my back. The first I remember was opening my eyes and everything got real black and I have slept in my living room for a real long time and haven't seen anything like this, it was so dark I could barely tell if I had windows. I lift my head to look around and I saw a tall dark figure standing in front of one of the walls. At first I couldn't make anything out but then suddenly I saw a long dark coat and a strange looking hat something that a wizard would wear but the hat was covering the face so I never got to see what the hell it was but I knew it was death.
I started to hear really scary voices and I could only make out 3 words, "dead,loser, and you're nothing" I mean it was real creepy especially by the way it was whispered. After that I started to see what appeared to be a bunch of dead faces around my bed sheets and I remember closing my eyes again only to see my mom's parents and they looked real mad. Everything was so damn dark and all I could see was a bunch of bad things happening to me, it's kind of like how my life will play out.
I tried closing and opening my eyes just to shake these thoughts out but it didn't help. I was so scared I didn't even want to turn my body around because I had a real bad feeling that they were standing right beside the figure so I cried out I'm sorry like 5 times and then in a flash everything disappear. I could see bright lights and what looked like god's face and I could see the times that I spent with my brother when he was younger and my mom. Everything felt so good and I could see she was going to go to a better place but the eerie thing is that my mom is still alive even though she is slightly out of shape.
I am 23 so what the hell is this all suppose to mean? Is death paying an early visit? Is some other deity reaching out? I have four other tattoos and I never felt this like this. The freaky part is that I have death tattooed on one of my forearms and the other has a skull with red eyes and a dragon wrapped around it. On the very top part of my back I have a twisted looking clown and a yin yang with two dragons crisscrossing.

"Ohne dich, mein hertz brent."
Yeah. I didn't know what it meant either. 😕 But I just KNEW that's what it was going to be. I could just see it. I translated it later to "Without you, my heart burns." and started crying almost instantly.
I had lost 6 loved ones in my close-knit mostly German family in that past year so it fit perfectly. I am getting those words and a skull with rose vines growing out of its eyes for my first tattoo. 😆
So I definitely think there is a connection. I think tattoos hold a lot more meaning than just body art. I think there is some sort of connection to your tattoo and your family- even if it is a subconscious one on your part. But unless your experiences increase or get worse/violent, I wouldn't worry about it too much. Good luck! 😊
