Not getting a tattoo, heh.
But moving on … have since discovered interesting and beautiful Navajo weaving patterns and I
really love this design:

Now, if Navajos wanted to revive and use that old symbol of theirs, I can’t see why they shouldn’t since it has absolutely nothing to do with Hitler’s:
“Stand-in-for-your-superiority-as-the-White-Aryan-Master-Race” … The high aspirations of it and the bitter falls …
(Here one needs the fall-off-your-high-camel video to illustrate):

Navajos apparently didn’t even have Chiefs!

Gimbutas:
“Swastika was a symbol of the perpetual motion of life and the universe” (So perhaps that was the original Euro hunter-gatherer definition for it?).
But because ours is an Arctic-Siberian influenced Euro view it is the Polaris – Big Dipper – World Pole – Axis Mundi (and how every aspect and symbol ties into that) Worldview … where stillness and movement come together, time and timelessness etc. etc. etc. which is a real shamanic spiritual awakening experience into nonduality. (The experience one has just before Thunderbird swallows one up, which is the shamanic-death-experience).
And so on.
