Spiritual Tattoo Designs-are not just pretty pictures
I wanted to write this article about spiritual tattoos because I wanted to find out how many others believe the tattoos we get need to have a spiritual meaning for us or not.
For me, tattoos are very Spiritual representing who and what I believe. They are symbolic of my spiritual path that is why most of them are hidden because I do not want to show them off but instead honor them for what they represent to me.
Many people will get a cross tattoo or a Celtic cross tattoo, (which I love Celtic designs!) And others will lean towards Fairies, Dragons and Wizards. There are so many Tattoo Designs that it is really hard just to walk into a tattoo shop and pick one right then and there. You need to go into the shop with some kind of idea of what you are wanting.
Have you ever thought about designing your own tattoo? Could you imagine having a piece of your own artwork tattooed on you that would be so symbolic! Please share your thoughts with us in the guestbook. I know I really enjoy reading what you have to say, so come on and share.

Tribal Tattoos are some of the most beautiful tattoos I have seen. They are very spiritual and usually when they are placed on someone, the person has a certain spiritual connection to it.
The first question I am always is asked is:
How many tattoos do you have?
I have always had a strong connection with the number Three The Triple Goddess, The Trinity, the Triquetra (the symbol they use on the TV series Charmed) Mind-Body-Spirit, to give you a few examples. So most of my tattoos are something symbolic to the trinity. I currently have five and want a celtic dragonfly to be my 6th one, thus the 3 x 3.I gave myself 2 tattoos that are now covered with something by a professional. I did that when I was in school, the ole fashion way with a bottle of indian ink and a needle with thread wrapped around it. It sounds like I am telling a tale but I'm really not. Some of the other students sort of gathered around me hiding my view from the teacher while I did my tattooing.
One was on my hand, today it has a black rose over it. I got the black rose during my gothick days because Black does not represent the same thing to me as it does to other people. I actually find a lot of beauty in Black. To me it represents the mystery of life, the mystery of the void and it represents Raven Medicine.
I see black as absorbing negativity. I have been told by many people it represents death to them. I suppose that is one way to view it, but where there is death, there is rebirth.

The Triquetra-Mind-Body and Spirit
The Triquetra
Mind-Body-Spirit
My Triquetra (try-KWET-ra) is on my lower back. The day I got mine, there was three of us in search of a good tattoo artist and we found them. Me and another one of my friends (spirit sister) got ours on our lower back and the third friend got hers on her upper arm.
The Triquetra just fits right in there with my beliefs. This symbol is very sacred to the celts and it represents the power of three-the triple goddess, Maiden-Mother-Crone. It also represents the Triple Moon the waxing, full and waning moons.
I believe that each symbol or tattoo we get, has special meanings to the one who has it.

Celtic Triskele

The Most Important Thing
when it comes to tattoos, you can add to the design. The above image is a Celtic Triskele which I have on one of my back shoulders. With my design, I added an Oak Leaf and an Acorn around it.
The person who gave me the tattoo, added the picture to his portfolio. It has some green coloring in the design because Green is a very powerful healing color.

Great Stuff on Amazon
They are all my favorite, but this one....
On my other back shoulder, I have a very special tattoo that was designed, and tattooed on by a dear friend of mine.
It is a triple moon with a hummingbird. It was a birthday gift to me a few years back. The hummingbird is a very sacred bird. They are very symbolic in my life. And they have manifested to me in times when I really needed them too and my friend knew this.
The triple moon, I have spoken a lot about that in several of my other lenses. The cycle of life for women is a very sacred journey that each woman goes through. In each stage of their life, they advance in their knowledge, beliefs and the way life is viewed.

remember you can add to any design. My other tattoo is a Hawk Feather. I cannot tell you how many years it has been since I got this one, but it is in honor of my Hawk Medicine. I have a purple ribbon hanging from it in honor of the Goddess Color. The tattoo artist was not gentle in way, shape or form. It felt just like he was driving that needle gun into my skin and it was scraping the inside of my elbow. But he did a GREAT job on the feather! I will try and take a picture of that one.

- I do not have a tattoo but my kids, and all of their friends, do. They all say that the tattoo they chose had a personal meaning for them, those with Celtic tattoos had a symbolic, historic or spiritual meaning.

- I Love tattoo's and mine are simply art that is for me. I would like to get a red tail hawk with its wings spread wrapped around my rib cage, like its hugging me. I have hawk medicine as well, the red tail hawk has been in my life always. Since i can remember. :) So when i get another tattoo that will be in, also will probably be getting a humming bird with my daughter in honor of my grandmother who passed away 5 years ago.

- Great lens! I love tattoos and have 7! My favorite is a rosevine sort of tattoo with hearts on my shoulder, each heart represents my four kids. I also have a beautiful tattoo on my foot which I love and it still looks great after 15 years!

- I have one on my back (David is tattooed all over, though) had it done when I was 21. At that time I found it very appealing (no particular meaning behind it) now, I wish for more sophisticated and meaningful piece. Wonderful lens, really enjoyed being here.

- Tattooing myself is just not in the cards. Mainly because I am always changing, and what's important at the time may become unimportant later. However, if I were to ever get a tattoo, one with a spiritual meaning would be the single most important consideration.

- Thanks for this nice lens, I have been thinking for years to get a tattoo of a dragon, but can never quite find the right thing, although I sell some dragon jewellery and I'm thinking of basing something on that!

- I really never thought about tattoos in a spiritual light but you are absolutely right. Tattoo beginnings all had a ritual attached to them most having to do with a passage of rite. How brilliant your lens is, you have introduced me into a whole new realm. Thank you!
