This Polynesian styled caduceus tattoo was prepared for Noel, to celebrate a goal reached at the end of a voyage (the row of birds) that he faced with strength, tenacity, and adaptability (octopus tentacle and shark teeth).
The braid symbolizes union as it´s a knowledge that serves the community.

He appears as the warrior, with spear heads for the staff, who now protects the people entrusted to him (the people symbolized below the warrior, under the wings shaped by the two tiki).

The all-seeing eye keeps all evil away, and the two letters represent to important persons who share his mission. They are all joined by the sun, representing this vocation as a source of eternity and joy, while fish hooks symbolize knowledge and prosperity.
