This is a portrait(?) of my right hand. Fun fact: my middle finger is scarred from a gardening accident.
I just got these tattooed recently (I may add pictures of my knuckles for comparison later.), and I chose them for their individual meanings (so I did not use them to spell anything). The meanings can differ, depending on how they are used. As far as my research took me, I believe I've found more accurate translations.
The runes across my knuckles are upside-down in the picture, but I have found examples of each one right-side-up. They are Norse letters and are not meant to be offensive in any way, shape or form. I am making this clear right now as some may glance at them, and because they are shaded and/or are upside-down may be seen as something that they are not meant to be.
Left to right: Mannaz: awareness, Raido: journey, Jera: progress, Tiwaz: warrior, Uruz: endurance/strength.
(5, 5, 13, 15, and 20 on the chart below.)
