Taino symbol of a coquí tree frog

For all my friends who are into tattoos and wish to honor Taino culture, here are my favorite images.

I really can’t decide which I love more, the tiny Coquí  or the magnificent sol. You can really feel that Caribbean heat with this sun symbol, but the song of the Coquí at night is magic.

And just in time for Valentine’s Day—a pair of Taino lovebirds.

Taino symbol of eternal love.

But with love and romance you also need the magic of the moon:

Símbolo de la luna.

Taino moon symbol

Here la luna dances her way through the night sky. Dance with her!
