Angel and Fairy Tattoos

 

Angel and fairy tattoos are both very popular tattoo designs amongst the female population. They can be seen on men as well of course, but they both make great female tattoo designs. So why are they so popular and what do these tattoos symbolize?

Well at a very basic level both these types of tattoo designs look very attractive on a woman. Some tattoos worn by a lot of men don’t look great on women, but angel tattoos and fairy tattoos always look good on a woman. Whether you have a large angel tattoo on your back, for example, or a small cute little fairy tattoo on your ankle or shoulder, for instance, these tattoos are always pleasing on the eye.

Of course while both these types of tattoos undoubtedly look great, it is there symbolism that is largely responsible for their popularity.

Let’s start by discussing angel tattoos first of all. Angel fairy tattoos can convey a number of different messages and can mean different things to different people, but they are often seen as a form of guardian angel, offering protection from evil spirits and misfortune in life.

They also have religious connotations for a lot of people because angels represent a link between themselves and God. Angels are mentioned a lot in the Bible, but they also feature in many other religions as well so angel tattoos can appeal to people from various different religions.

Also because angels represent life and death, another reason why angel tattoos are so popular is because they can be used to remember loved ones that have sadly passed away. Read more…

It’s easy to see understand why angel tattoos are popular. After all, most societies and cultures have archetypes of guardians and supernatural beings that transcend above normal existence. Whether you’re from sub-Saharan Africa, Midwest North America or aborigine Australia, almost everyone recognizes angelic forms as positive and protective forces that guide the human race.

While angels have universal positivity, different faiths and cultures have varying agreements on what angels look like. Some cultures also have more specific ideals of what angels specifically do. Even for atheists, angels represent the ethereal supernatural forces that give humanity a higher calling. Whether you’re in the West or East, anyone can recognize the benevolent context of angels and angel tattoos.

Angel tattoos are popular reminders of good verses evil, powerful verses weak. Angel tattoos are also powerful symbols of faith, hope and love in a world that’s lost to war, financial distress and crime. With such universal context, where did the idea of angels begin? Read more…

Angel Tattoos Designs

Some people may choose to have an angel tattoo designs whether they’re particularly religious or not. Some people simply like having an angel near to them so that they feel it’s watching over them like a guardian angel. Some people may actually feel better when they have this sort of tattoo applied to their body. There are many different designs with this sort of image that can be created and turned into tattoo designs. Many tattoo shops have a lot of designs like this because of the popularity of the subject matter. Customers can come into the tattoo shop and choose from a wide selection of images with angels somewhere in them. Some may be simple and have a plain angel in a circle or more elaborate designs may have angels as part of a much wider design that can begin in one area of the customer’s body and wind its way along to another part of the body. These types of full-body tattoos are for the more serious tattoo favorers.

Many tattoo shops may have artists that specialize in this form of art and can create anything that the customer wants in the way of an angel tattoo design. Other artists may have some ability to create angels but maybe not with the same sort of detail or imagination. Because of their popularity in modern culture, angel designs are one of the most requested tattoo designs – especially among women who want a tattoo. Any tattoo shop that doesn’t have an artist who can create an angel tattoo design will find itself turning away a lot of customers, especially women and younger girls. Men tend not to have angels tattooed on them in the fear that other men will misinterpret the angel design as a fairy. Read more…

Angel and Devil Tattoos

Devil tattoos are usually dark and evil tattoos that people love to get as creative with as they can. The person can do almost anything with their design, letting out any kind of evil look they desire. Most devil tattoo designs are incorporated with an angel design. People incorporate the angel and devil together because of the fight against good and evil, light and dark, pure and sinful. These designs are mostly tainted towards the evil side.

If you look at some of the popular angel tattoos, you would see a resemblance towards the devil tattoo. The angel would either have an evil face or dark colors not accurately depicting an angel. The angel and devil could be fighting while the devil would be winning. Tattoo designs can depict stories or symbols without other people really knowing the truth behind the design. The design could ‘look good’ to a person but the real meaning of it is only known by the artist itself.

Many tattoo artists are designing angel tattoos that can resemble both good and bad, depending on the person’s personal conviction and style. Read more…

Guardian angels appear throughout the bible and typically they are seen as a link between God and humans. It is believed that guardian angels are assigned or responsible for a person. They are there to help protect and guide a person throughout their life. You can see many instances of this in the bible and even more so in popular lore and stories about angels.

Guardian Angel Tattoos Styles

There are a variety of different styles of tattoos and ways to design or represent a guardian angel. One of the most popular of course is the cherub child like angel that is typically cute and impish. The most famous depiction of cherubs is probably the Sistine Madonna painted by by Raphael.
