About the author
Lisa Barretta is the author of two books published by New Page Books that approach personal transformation through symbolism. Conscious Ink: The Hidden Meaning of Tattoos reads tattoos as a form of body talisman, tracing the practice back to shamanic tattooing traditions and treating tattoo choices as expressions of a wearer's spiritual state. The Book of Transformation takes a broader view, addressing psychic development and shifts in consciousness in the context of what the book describes as a generational change associated with so-called Indigo children. Both titles sit within the New Age and occult-philosophy space, combining personal anecdote with broader claims about consciousness and symbolism. Barretta's work is aimed at readers already interested in tattoos, body art, or psychic and spiritual development who want a framework for interpreting personal symbols and life changes rather than a strictly practical or historical treatment of the subject.
