Ink-wise, Miley Cyrus is catching up with brother Trace

18-year-old Miley Cyrus has been inked – for the fifth time.

She may not have reached the level of human colouring book Trace Cyrus just yet, but Miley’s new tat is pretty big.

Once again, she has opted for the upper body area, making the tat visible through a hole in her t-shirt.

A photo of the ink was snapped when Miley was out in LA on Thursday. It’s hard to tell what it is, but a friend of the star told PEOPLE it’s a dream catcher.

“It’s a picture of the dream catcher that hangs over her bed with four feathers to represent her four brothers and sisters,” said the friend.

“The dream catcher is to protect them.”

Other Miley inkings are a heart and a small cross on her fingers, the word ‘love” on her ear and the phrase “just breathe” on her rib cage in honor of a close friend who died of cystic fibrosis.

“All of Miley’s tattoos have a deep meaning to her,” the friend added. “They all represent family and friends close to her.”

We’re sure Trace(ing paper) has meanings for all his too. Not.
