Phoenix Tattoo Designs

Phoenix are a very popular tattoo design. Phoenix made as phoenix tribal tattoos or phoenix Celtic tattoos are also very popular.

Phoenix tattoos can be tattooed as armbands / arm bands, lowerback / lower back pieces, on ankles, shoulders, the upperback area, chest. . . just about anywhere as body art.

People now commonly search online using the internet for phoenix tattoo flash (tattoo art / tattoo pictures) and this is a great source to find phoenix tattoos. First instinct is to find free phoenix tattoo designs, but the quality of these designs is generally pretty poor (you get what you pay for, of course).

Tattoo Artists who create our tattoo flash get paid a royalty, so your purchase goes to support the flash artists to create more top quality tattoo artwork!

Cherry Blossom Tattoo Designs

Cherry blossom tattoo - what does it symbolize

Even if these flowers are mostly associated with Japan, they are also a part of China’s culture as well but represent an entirely different meaning as how it is traditionally observed in Japan. It would be therefore interesting to know as what cherry blossom tattoo symbolizes in relation to how the flower is celebrated in these two countries.The blossoming of these flowers marks the coming of spring in Japan and paves the way for hanami or cherry blossom viewing. This event is observed with blithe and exuberance – people gather under the trees while enjoying the intensity and beauty of the blossoming flowers that last only for days. Thus, cherry blossom is a symbol that is associated with the life of samurai warriors of old Japan which could end violently at any time just as cherry blossom would shed its petals after a fleeting moment. It is a felicitous symbol and a poignant reminder of the fragility and transitory of life. The flowing petals of cherry blossom represent the sacrifice that these warriors have to go through to defend their emperors. It is a symbol associated with the beauty and fragility of human life.

Zodiac Symbol Tattoo Designs

Have you ever given any thought to zodiac symbols when you've been browsing through catalogues of tattoos?

There are 12 signs of the zodiac and you will definitely be one of them.
Just select your birth date to see which sign you come under.

Aries = begins 21st March- ends 20th April
Taurus = begins 21st April - ends 21st May
Gemini= begins 22nd May - ends 21st June
Cancer = begins 22nd June- ends 22nd July
Leo = begins 23rd July- ends 23rd August
Virgo = begins 24th August- ends 22nd September
Libra = begins 23rd September -ends 23rd October
Scorpio = begins 24th October- ends 22nd November
Sagittarius = begins 23rd November- ends 21st December
Capricorn = begins 22nd December- ends 20th January
Aquarius = begins 21st January ends- 18th February
Pisces = begins 19th February ends- 20th March.

If you are on the cusp of any sign, as an astrologer would say (meaning for example that your birthday is 2oth April...are you then an Arian or a Taurean?) you may need to actively seek out an astrologer to find out exactly which sign you come under.

They'll definitely be able to tell you as they have charts going back years and years as to the exact dates of the change over of the signs.

Each sign of the zodiac carries with it specific traits etc and although horoscopes and astrology phone lines are popular entertainment; the science of astrology is quite complex and revered by many prominent people.

Certainly if you believe in things like' every thing happens for reason' then you'll also believe that we were born at a certain time for a reason and therefore under a specific star sign.

Tattoo fads and fashions come and go, so I always think it's best to have a tattoo that can't ever cease to be relevant and yet will always say something about you.

A lover's name or the date of a marriage may change or be regretted, but your birth date and hence your star sign will never change.

Look up the symbol for your sign; they are quite unique and individualistic as a choice for a tattoo.
