Tattoo Meanings Tattoo Meanings Over the years tattoos have become little more than decaling the human skin. Most people get a tattoo and spent there whole life never knowing the true meaning. Others are confused on the meanings of tattoos and get something that might have a completely different definition. Tattooing has been a part of every culture known to date, and each culture has its own meanings for different images. Here is a list of tattoo images that have meanings you may be surprised of. There are so many images to choose from, I am forced to pick but a few of thousands. When you offer a tattoo to a client, or choosing one for yourself, you should always research the true meaning. Apple- An apple seems like a tattoo a teacher would get, but it really is a symbol recognizing the easily tempted nature of man. It is a symbol that is brought to us by the story of Adam and Eve in the Christian Bible. The story is the down fall of man was brought on by the eating of the forbidden fruit. Arm Band- Arm band tattoo just seem like a nice decoration for any one, but they are a symbol of slavery and imprisonment. The tribal arm bands you see today are reminiscent of the identification markings between African tribes,while barbed wire is a symbol of spending time in prison or being a slave. Birds- Birds are colorful animals that fly everywhere they go, most would ay they are a symbol of freedom. They are in fact a symbol sailor used to signify coming home due to the migratory patterns of most birds. The best depiction of this is the swallow or sparrow. Often you will see sparrow and swallows tattooed holding or with stars. This is a symbol of finding your way in the dark, since most sailors spent months at sea and the night was the most dangerous time to sail due to not being able to see any obstructions in the water. The Cat- A tattoo of a cat can be for a female that loves her pet, and a symbol of attention. For the Egyptians the cat was a symbol of death. Though to be a sacred animal, the cat was believed to be able to cross from the land of the living to the land of the dead. Many past cultures see the cat as a messenger from the dead to the living. Daggers- A dagger can symbolize many things such as revenge or getting stabbed in the back, but the true meaning of a dagger is from the Japanese culture. When a Samurai warrior failed his king on a task too small to commit Hari-Kari (honorable suicide) they would be required to remove the tip of a finger to show sympathy for the failure, thus making a dagger a sign of loyalty. Dragon- The American dragon is a symbol of strength, but the Japanese dragon is a symbol of wisdom and intelligence, often depicted with a tiger along side it to symbolize wisdom and beauty. Eye- The tattooed image of an eye would seem to be a symbol of awareness, though it can be, it was first tattooed on prisoners by other prisoners on there backs against their will. The meaning of which is to show that the tattooed prisoner was an informant and also symbolized they have been sexually assaulted by another prisoner. Fairy-The fairy is a mystical creature most use as a symbol of their childhood. The oldest meaning behind a fairy tattoo is that fairies would often grant wishes to the ones that could catch them making all the captors dreams come true while causing more problems then they helped. The Irish later referred to them as leprechauns. Fans- Most think that a tattoo of an oriental fan is a sign of beauty due to the geisha that never leaves hers behind, but in fact it is a tool to ward off evilspirits. Fish- Fish tattoos are often viewed as a sign of fertility, this is not entirely wrong. The Celtic Salmon of wisdom might say other wise though. In the Japanese culture, the Koi fish is a symbol of strength and beauty. The Koi was a plain fish till the Japanese bread them to be bright colors, and the legend of the Koi is that every Japanese dragon started as a Koi fish that had to jump over a rainbow to change into a dragon. Flags- Flags today are a symbol of patriotism, getting an American flag tattoo supports your country. In the past, other cultures would get a flag tattooed of a rival country to show disrespect and that the country the flag belonged to was an enemy. Fleur de Lis- The Fleur de Lis might be the same symbol we use for the boy scouts, but it really is a sign of the French Monarchy, and so represents liberty. Ganesh- Ganesh is the Hindu god that has a head of the elephant. The meaning of her as a tattoo is that of Protection and righteousness. Gecko Lizard- The gecko lizard is a sign of regrowth and survival instinct do to its ability to loose its tail and later re-grow it in order to distract an enemy to save its own life. Grapes- Grapes are a symbol of the Greek goddess of wine named Dionysus. When you see someone sporting a grape vine up there leg thinking it means growth, they are really telling you they are a drunk. Griffin- A griffin is a mythological animal passed on from the Middle Eastern religion called Zoroastrianism, but was later used by the Christian church as a symbol of the two sides of Christ. The Eye of Horus- Horus was an Egyptian god whose symbol is the left eye. Horus is the god of war and protection. Any one thought to have the symbol tattoo was believed to be protected by Horus himself during combat. The Eye of Rah- Rah is the Egyptian god of the sun symbolized by the right eye or opposite the eye of Horus. The symbol of Rah means you warship life or creation of life. Kokopelli- The Kokopelli is thought by most cultures to be a messenger ofyou is the most of the actual depictions of the Kokopelli is adorned with very large male genitailia. It's actually an Indian sign of fertility. Lotus Flower- The lotus flower is often mistaken for a sign of beauty. The lotus flower is a very pretty flower that grows in mercky and muddy water; it is a sign of spiritual purity through advertisement. Nautical Star- The "Nautical Star" that you see on every teenager is one of the oldest tattooed symbols. It symbolizes the North Star and means that the one adorning such a tattoo is looking for there way. Spider Web- Some say the spider web on the elbow is a symbol of taking a life. The true meaning of the spider web tattoo is more for the bikers, it's a symbol of crashing a motor cycle in hopes that the spider webs will catch them the next time to keep the rider out of harm, figuratively that is. Those are some of the image meanings I thought you would be surprised about. There are just so many images to name, I can't even think of a fourth of them.
