Kat Von D is tattooing her soul with some fresh spiritual ink.
The celebrity tattoo artist and “LA Ink” star shared a video of her recent baptism in an Instagram video Tuesday. In the clip, set to angelic choral music, Von D can be seen enjoying the baptism church service before being dunked into a baptismal pool by the pastor performing the ceremony.
"Katherine von Drachenberg, upon your profession of faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and in obedience to his divine command, I baptize you, my sister, in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit," the pastor said.
The religious rite comes after Von D revealed in a July 2022 Instagram post that she was distancing herself from her consumption of the occult arts. The tattoo artist shared a photo of the various items she was parting ways with, including texts on witchcraft and boxes of tarot cards.
“I’ve always found beauty in the macabre, but at this point, I just had to ask myself what is my relationship with this content?” Von D wrote at the time. “And the truth is, I just don’t want to invite any of these things into our family’s lives, even if it comes disguised in beautiful covers, collecting dust on my shelves.”
Von D added that the revelation wasn’t meant to “put anyone down if you’re into this stuff,” as she was reflecting on the evolution of her own spiritual life.
“I love everyone regardless of where they might be at,” Von D wrote. “But right now, it’s never been more clear to me that there is a spiritual battle taking place, and I want to surround myself and my family with love and light.
