Origin
Perusing the pop section at the library, I saw it. The book. The origin of my tattoo. Trademarks of the '60s & '70s. Page 87.
1967
Daiwa Corportation
Gardena, California
Fishing reels and fishing rods
I had completely forgotten it was in reverse. The negative of what is now on my skin. The book says, "[The sunburst's...] many symbolic abstractions reference the center of the universe or the soul...,and the circular shape suggests permanence, warmth, and comfort."
I love this tattoo.
Permanence. Warmth. Comfort.

Nice tatoo. I like simple ones with meaning.
What a nice surprise to have relocated the source! Beautiful!
See? You were so dismissive of it before ~ have faith in yourself, woman!
Sweet! I wonder if you unconsciously remembered the description.
What awesome meaning...how you it is.
That is indeed a lovely symbol. Whenever I see sunbursts I think of my mom. She was a sun worshipper her whole life. :)
yeah, what meno said.
I believe that is the bravest thing I have ever heard. Cowards like me would have looked up the meaning before we got the tattoo!
So cool to hear how it's making you feel.
I want that feeling.
Oh, that's a good, good sign. . .
Yay that's SO COOL!
I love yout tattoo as well!
Where is this tattoo? Have you told us?
(OK, none o' my business....)
