Probably the most popular Sak Yant Magic Tattoo in Thailand is the Hah Taew or 5 Sacred Lines.
The Hah Taew Yant is also the number one choice among females as the Yant is both attractive and also not too conspicuous. Every sacred line of this Yant will bestow a blessing on the receiver, usually including loving kindness, success in all aspects of life, charm, good luck and protection against evil spirits and the banishment of bad luck. Although all Hah Taew Yants may appear to look the same, there are many different versions. The lines of the Hah Taew Yant are in fact small sections taken from Buddhist prayers.
The following Katha or Mantra which praises the Lord Buddha’s 5 outstanding attributes is associated with the Hah Taew Yant.

does the hah taew tattoo have to go on the back of the left shoulder?
No, it can go anywhere as long as it is above the waist
what i cant do after receiving a har teaw tattoo?
How much does this tattoo cost? What’s the price range?
Hello to everybody.
Since i have seen the Yant Ha Taew tattoo from angelina jolie i´m very interested about this tattoo. I have researched a lot at the internet and the more information i get the more interested & faszinated i am….
The faszination about the Yant Ha Taew leads to a hughe wish, that i also want a Yant Ha Taew. But i didn´t like a simple copy of it, because the Yant Ha Taew is sacred.
Unfortunately i didn´t have the possibility to go to thailand for the tattoo. However, i have found a person in germany who has learned the traditional kind of tattoing from buddhist monks and prisioners… But now i have the problem, that i want a Yant Ha Taew which is specific for me. Unfortunately the person can only tattoo normal Sak Yant, but he can not create the 5 sacred lines – he is no monk….
Now i hope, that i can get somewhere a design template for my Yant Ha Taew. With this template i will go to this person and he will do the tattoo on the traditional way…
I really hope, that someone can help me, that i can get the right Yant Ha Taew Template for me..
naturally it is possible to make a donate for my own special Yant Ha Taew Template.
Thanks a lot + best regards
I’ve always wanted a Sak Yant tattoo, and this is the one I’ve always liked best. Now I finally know what it means. Now, I just would like to know where it is possible to get one, and how much they cost.
Hi Caitlin,
I think the best thing to do, is to go to Wat Bang Phra. It’s 50 km west of Bangkok. It’ll only cost you around $ 3. That’s what it costs to buy the temple/monks an offer. You’re supposed to buy it before you go into the temple (they sell it right in front of the temple…so you don’t have to worry about that).
I’ll go to Wat Bang Phra in February. Can’t wait
Enjoy Thailand!
Can any one tell me of a temple in Phuket where I could get a sak yant?
Namaste,
On a spur of the moment and perhaps intuition more, I accepted an invitation to do a trip to Thailand recently. Not being a Buddhist, but applying the principles, as I believe all things relating to spiritual wellbeing has a single unifying purpose, I’ve always felt an affinity towards the Eastern cultures regardless. Thailand and it’s people just humbled me more than explanation could ever justify. It was during my trip, on the island of Kho Phi Phi, that I decided to have another tattoo (existing ones being very sacred and relating to an important events in my life), done Bamboo method. At that stage not yet sure what I wanted, and decided to let my intuition guide me once more. All my previous tattoos were own designs, I was weary of just having one for the sake of it. I stumbled upon a small village tattoo artist, who had the 5 line Sak Yant symbol, designed the traditional style but also in a circular shape. I knew that was it. Although the circular shape was very appealing to the eye, the name of the tattoo artist did not resonate with me. I feel even the person doing the tattoo, had to have significance and somehow, someone calling himself Satan, just did not put my soul at ease, purely for the negative energy associated with the name. I settled to have it done the traditional style but with another Thai tattoo artist.
Which brings me to my two questions.
1. Would the format of the tattoo style have an impact on the effect and meaning of Sak Yant, especially if in a circular shape?
2. I had my tattoo done on the right side, on my ribs under my arm, for the reason of it being part of the source of my existence, which is my heart and my lungs. Does this make any difference to the effectiveness of the Sak Yant?
Looking forward to your feedback.
Blessings and gratitude.
Leonie
