Chinese Symbol tattoos

Chinese tattoos and especially the Chinese characters tattoo have been very popular in the Western world the last decade or so, and they still are today. Chinese characters are beautiful little pieces of art. They are exotic and mysterious, what makes them very suitable for a tattoo design. No wonder you see so many chinese symbol tattoos around these days.

There's more to Chinese tattoos than just the symbol tattoos, although tattoos have quite a negative connotation in traditional Chinese culture. In fact, there was a belief that the body is a sacred gift from one’s parents and should not be altered in any permanent way – which of course includes tattooing.

It's amazing how much of the popular tattoo designs are derived from different cultures. As a result, the designs are not just made for aesthetic reasons but also symbolize a person's personal views and opinions. One of those tattoo patterns that cater both to beauty and cultures is the shamrock Clover tattoo designs The designs are not only popular but are also easy to identify. They are thought to bring luck to the person who wears them, something that can be attributed to the legend of the four leaf clover. However, it might be interesting to note that only three leaf clovers are called shamrocks. Four leaf clovers are considered lucky because they appear very rarely.

However, regardless of a belief that the shamrock brings luck, the design is also a recognized symbol for Ireland. People who wear this tattoo designs are aware of the wealth of culture carried by the emblem. As one way of representing Irish culture, the shamrock is a great way for people to brandish their pride in their heritage. The plant's catapult to popularity started because of its resemblance to the Celtic triple image. The druids from ancient Ireland noticed this similarity and started to grow and take care of the plants. The clover was also incorporated in Christianity when Saint Patrick used the clover to explain the Holy Trinity. So basically, the shamrock also has deep roots when it comes to religion.

However, a shamrock clover tattoo design is not just a plain green clover brandished on the skin. Tattoo enthusiasts nowadays are creative enough to develop different shamrock clover designs that speak individuality. Aside from the green leaf, the basic tattoo idea can be edited according to a person's specifications. Tattoo enthusiasts have never lacked ways to turn the basic shamrock clover tattoo designs into something that relates to them personally.

Shamrock clover tattoo designs can be placed anywhere in the body since they can be easily scaled into small proportions. Some celebrities who were taken in with the shamrock clover design include Joely Fisher, Melanie Griffith, Richard Grieco and Jamie Walters. Fisher and Griffith has theirs on their ankles, Grieco on his calf and Walters has one combined with a pair of dice - to accentuate the luck.

Although a first impression of the shamrock clover tattoo may look as though the tattoo pattern lacks originality, the fact is that the final result can be up to you. You can brandish a date along the center or incorporate the design into a pattern to come up with a tattoo that has deeper meaning for you. The important thing is that you will have a tattoo that you will love for a long time.

Inks are not only for aesthetic reasons but can also be used as a silent statement. The shamrock clover tattoo design only establishes that fact. Whether it's for luck or a testament to Irish pride, the shamrock clover is a popular and beautiful design. Good luck on your tattoo hunting!

Henna tattoos, also called “mehndi”, are a type of temporary body decoration that developed in India. This traditional art was not thought of as tattooing at all, until quite recently. Rather, mehndi was more like cosmetics – a way of decorating the body for special occasions such as weddings. Anyone who has seen a traditional mehndi design can attest to the fact that the patterns are intricate and stunning. The most common places for mehndi patterns are the hands and feet. Some artists use stencils, but others are able to draw these intricate patterns and apply henna tattoos by hand.

Pentagram Tattoo

The Pentagram Tattoo

Pentagram Tattoo

Another star tattoo design with a religious or spiritual meaning is the pentagram tattoo.

The pentagram (aka pentangle), a five pointed star, has been used as a symbol by many religions and cultures throughout history, it's one of the oldest symbols in the world.

Here's an overview of the different symbolic meanings of the pentagram:

The pentagram is a symbol of protection against evil.
Astronomy: the pentagram is a symbol of feminity. During it's path around the sun, the planet Venus follows a pattern that resembles a pentagram.
5 elements: the pentagram is the symbol for the 5 elements: light, air, wind, fire and water.
Ancient Egypt: on ancient Egyptian graves, the pentagram is a symbol for the celestial sky.
Pythagoras: for Pythagoreans, the pentagram is a symbol for mathematical perfection.
Christianity: the pentagram symbolizes the 5 senses and is a symbol of health. In the Middle Ages it was the symbol for the 5 cross wounds of Jesus Christ.
Satanism (black magic): they use a reversed pentagram inside a double circle. Inside the pentagram is the head of a goat. Each point has a Hebrew letter, forming the word LVYTN (Leviathan, a mythological sea monster from the Old Testament).
Wicca (white magic): a religion based on nature. The pentagram is a symbol of faith for wiccans. Pentagram tattoos are a fairly popular goth tattoo .

In any case, suffice it to say that star tattoos can sometimes transcend the purely decorative and take on a more metaphysical or symbolic meaning.

The Best Female Tattoo Designs

Some women lean towards a more feminine tattoo design while some of the younger female ink lovers are making more trendy choices that were at one time thought of "guys" skin art. Choices are expanding to bolder styles, larger pieces and in more publicly visible locations.

Even though tattoos are more accepted than ever, that rule does not apply across the board. So if you are a young girl just starting in the work force you may be smart to choose locations that can be concealed if required. Until you are absolutely certain of your career, I would recommend making choices of your body that can be covered up if necessary for your work life.

If you are absolutely determined to have a more visible tattoo, I would then suggest an acceptable choice - mainstream acceptable - for instance, a potential employer may be more likely to hire someone with a pretty flower tattoo but may be socially shocked if you had a skull with a knife protruding through the top. Use some discretion and smarts when it comes to the choices you make.
