Summary

[edit]
Description

In the Gospels, like in Luke 8:33, Demons left a man and entered pigs that drowned them selves and in Luke 22:54-62 Peter denied knowing Christ three times before the Rooster Crowed.

Traditional Navy tattoos for a good luck symbols were a pig on one foot and a chicken on the other - when ships of old sank the pigs and chickens survived because they were in crates that floated - therefore the tattoos were to help keeping you from drowning. One variation was to have a tattoo of a pig on the left knee and a rooster (cock) on the right foot signified “Pig on the knee, safety at sea. A cock on the right, never lose a fight.”

With diabetes I did not think it was wise to get a tattoo on my feet so I settled for upper arm.
