NYC - June/August
What is a Tattoo Ceremony?
Experience the sacred art of Talisman Tattoos with Lua, where every mark on your skin becomes a profound expression of intention and energy. Each tattoo is crafted as a personal amulet, reflecting your soul’s essence and honoring your journey of resilience and transformation. Through a spiritual and artistic process, Lua channels your intentions into a design that forges a lasting connection to your deepest desires. Your Talisman serves as a sacred marking that transcends the physical, energy, and spirit into the skin. Each tattoo is a gateway to transformation, capturing the essence of your personal journey.
The ceremonies are held in a private, soothing atmosphere where you can dive into a meditative state. It includes the following steps to enhance the experience:
Opening the Space & Revealing Your Talisman: Welcoming you and unveiling your personal Talisman Lua has channeled for you. We’ll finalize the placement and make adjustments until you are fully aligned with the design.
Cleansing and Sound Healing: Purifying the space and the recipient with herbal smudging, followed by a grounding sound healing with drumming or crystal bowls.
Oracle Card Guidance: Drawing an Oracle card at the start of the session offers deeper insight, helping to align with your intention and activate the talisman's power.
Intuitive Freehand Design: Another unique aspect of this experience is the option for an intuitive freehand design process, either as a standalone experience or as part of your talisman. This approach involves sketching directly on your skin, tracing and complementing the contours of your body and energies—a true exploration of trust and adornment.

Reiki is an ancient Japanese energy healing practice that works by channeling universal life force energy to restore balance, release blockages, and invite the body and spirit back into harmony. It is gentle, non-invasive, and deeply restorative.
Having completed my Reiki Level 2 initiation in India, I am attuned to send healing energy across distance - meaning a session can reach you wherever you are in the world.
Two occasions to receive a Reiki healing:
As Part of a Tattoo Ceremony
A tattoo is not just ink on skin - it is a threshold. A conscious marking of who you are becoming.
Received before a session, Reiki prepares the body and nervous system to open - softening resistance, clearing stagnant energy, and creating an inner sanctuary of readiness so that the symbol can land in fertile ground.
Received after, it acts as a seal - helping the body integrate the experience and anchor the intention of the mark into the energetic field.
Either way, it transforms a tattoo appointment into a full ceremonial container.
As a Standalone Offering
You don't need to be getting a tattoo to receive this.
If you are standing at a crossroads - moving through grief, transformation, a new beginning, or simply feeling called back to yourself - a distance Reiki session can help you clarify, purify, and realign before your next step.
It is an offering for anyone ready to tend to their energy with intention.
Sessions are offered remotely worldwide. Reach out to book or enquire.
Thank you!
After receiving your form submission or completing our 1:1 consultation, I'll email you within a few days with the next steps, including the estimated price and available appointment options.

WORDS FROM YOU
-
"My first tattoo - and I searched a long time for the right artist. The moment I saw Lua's work, I knew. We designed the piece together and she created such a magical space, turning everything I had in mind into exactly what I envisioned. The process itself felt so loving I actually enjoyed every moment of it.
Now I carry her spirit on my skin. Everyone who sees it is moved by the detail and beauty of the piece. Looking at it grounds me - sometimes I even paint over it with body paint and feel completely connected. It was the best decision I've made.
I want more. Because it matters deeply whose energy is infused into your body."
-
"Getting a ceremonial tattoo with Lua was unlike anything I've experienced. Her softness, her delicate work, her attention to detail - everything felt intentional. The ritual woven around the tattoo itself added such a meaningful layer, allowing me to connect deeply with the purpose behind the mark and carry it as a reminder of my soul.
The most profound tattoo I've had - and everyone who sees it feels it too."
-
"I've had the chance to collaborate with Lua on several tattoo projects - and each one has been a deeply personal experience. She took the time to truly understand what I wanted, and the designs that emerged were so aligned it felt almost impossible. They really are talismans. Each one carries meaning.
Lua came to my place and together we built a sacred space for the ritual - honoring the work, the lines, the symbolism, my body. Everything moved slowly and intentionally. She listened, supported, advised, and even followed up through the healing process.
You can go with your eyes closed and your heart open."
-
"From the very beginning I felt completely at ease in Lua's presence. She listened wholeheartedly to the story behind my concept and guided me with such gentleness and empathy - helping me translate a lived experience into an image. I felt safe sharing, and secure in the space she created.
Her process is clear, intentional, and deeply caring. I felt truly seen and heard throughout.
Her work speaks for itself - and I hope our paths cross again."
-
"I feel so honored and grateful our paths crossed, Lua. Everything about the ceremony was beautiful and sacred — the symbols, the space, the intention held throughout.
I had been searching for a long time for someone who could work with symbols this sacredly. And I was clearly waiting for you. You are such a blessing.
I look down at your artwork on my arms so many times a day, in pure gratitude. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your art and your divine ceremony."
-
"My tattoo ceremony with Lua was like no other session I've ever had. She was so caring throughout the entire process from preparing the design to creating a peaceful, cleansed space that felt truly held.
She guided me through setting intentions for the tattoo, turning the whole experience into a magical little ritual. One that will stay with me forever. Now every time I look at my tattoo, I'm brought right back to that intention."
