I like the idea of having fire/pyre with it. I searched for ‘pyre tattoos’ across the net, but didn’t really see any examples. I did search for flame tattoos and ran across several I like the styles of, although I’m not exactly sure they’d mesh with the way my tat is done.

I had also considered having a dragons head near the top of my arm (just below the shoulder, but on the vertical arm part) breathing fire downwards to the point of my elbow.

But my problem comes back every time – the phoenix still looks off centered. I know it is, but I’m hoping that something can be added to disguise its placement a bit.
