Chances are...
you're here because you know,
the Body is a Temple.
and probably a noisy tattoo shop simply isn't what you need...
Tattoo Rites are finally returning to what they originally were -
the practice of marking the physical form with deep awareness, prayer and vibrational codes -
the body celebrated as a precious vessel of Life.
Traditionally utilized in shamanic cultures across the globe for all history -
tattooing is an opportunity to create sigils of beauty, protection, invocation,
and marking rites of passage.
Through tattooing with intention,
we connect with our ancestral lines and tend to the spirit-body relationship.
Drawing guidance from a decade of service and study within Intertribal, Daoist and Indigenous Wisdom Traditions,
Jeanelle offers custom designs appropriate for the modern
hand poke style with sensitivity to cultural stewardship.
As part of your private tattoo ceremony, Jeanelle intuitively weaves song, sound, herbal smoke and invocations to gently open the psychic bodies to receive the vibration of your new sacred markings both in the seen and unseen.
Together you crystallize your intention and prayer
while holding dedicated space for emotional release and subconscious repatterning.
"I'm deeply grateful to create space for
wakefulness and prayer through the global ancestral art of tattoo. "
Testimonials
I knew that one day when and if it was time for me to have a tattoo, I would know. When I spoke with Jeanelle, I knew it was that time. This piece for me was a deep prayer and an outward sign of that prayer and path. After communicating with Jeanelle about my prayer for this piece she birthed something beyond what I could have imagined. Each little detail is a representation of something profoundly meaningful to me. And it wasn’t just the art itself, it was the beautiful ceremonial container she held from beginning to end. From the moment I arrived, it was her kindness, intuitive connection and awareness of the sacred that made this experience so special. She offered a limpia cleansing ceremony and sang icaros (ancient medicine songs) before beginning. The actual tattooing process is a ceremony in and of itself. She uses a time-honored hand-poke method with plant-based, permanent ink. She is truly an artist and is precise and practiced in her method. In the days that followed, I could feel a spiritual/energetic shift since receiving this physical prayer on my body. I am deeply moved by this whole experience and forever grateful to Jeanelle for sharing her gifts and her willingness to hold these sacred spaces.

"Jeanelle is a true Medicine Woman, and she offered me the most potent ceremonial experience of sound healing, sacred art channeling and ritual tattooing. I really felt transported as soon as I entered her space and felt so deeply the sacred space that she creates. There is a unique depth and mastery to her work, and I feel so honored to have spent time with her. From the very beginning of our connection, I could feel her intention, heart, and presence with me. She worked with me to channel a deeply meaningful tattoo for what I've been moving through and who I'm stepping into. Then the actual ceremony was so beautiful, and I'm grateful to have this art with me forever. A lot has shifted in me energetically since receiving this on my body and I owe that to Jeanelle's intention + honoring container. Thank you so much."

"Every single thing in this tattoo has a meaning to me. Jeanelle was able to bring my vision to life after almost 2 years of planning & patiently waiting for the right time to arrive. Thank you Jeanelle for your dedication and artistry.
This wasn't a trip to a tattoo parlor because I wanted something private & very special.
A rite of passage.
This was an intentional ceremony curated from beginning to end to symbolize my journey of death & rebirth over the past few years of my life.
Transformation.
I couldn't be happier with the process and finished product."
