Why get a tiger tattoo? There are as many answers to that question as there are designs available. But, one of the most important is the symbolism behind these beast. In most Asian countries, the tiger is thought to be the "King of Beasts," and is seen as a symbol of pure and raw power. Tiger tattoos often present an illustrated version of these symbolic meanings. Many tiger tattoos are done in a realistic fashion, meaning they often look as though they have been drawn whilst watching the animal live and in its natural habitat. Other designs, though, appear in a woodblock mode. These tigers are highly stylized; their shapes are long and fluidic. They may also appear in several different stances; on the prowl, lounging in the sun, and they may even occasionally be shown in a more languid manner, such as sitting under a tree while licking a large paw clean. Tiger tattoos can depict the beast in nature. Not only can you create a portrait of a tiger in the wild, you can utilize the unique markings to combine it into its setting. One idea is to borrow from the flowing woodblock style and show the lines of the tiger as branches from a dark, or even burnt tree. You may also show the tiger melding in with the darkness of the night sky or brightness of a hot sun. The tiger tattoo in the picture is a beautiful representation of a naturalistic done tiger.
The tiger tattoo holds a very high position in Asian symbolism. Most often it is considered to show the aggressive or destructive force that is within each person. It holds equal status, in influence at least, to the dragon. Whereas dragon tattoos represent the higher sense of self and the attainment of good, tiger tattoos represent the dark forces that can be found within each person. The appearance of a dragon tattoo and tiger tattoo together can hold different meanings, depending on the position of the two symbols. If the dragon and the tiger tattoos are at an equal level, this often symbolizes balance and harmony. If the tiger tattoo is shown overpowering the dragon, this often means the triumph of self-interest and aggression. However, if the dragon tattoo is shown beating the tiger, this would signify a triumph against dark forces. Tiger tattoos are rich in meaning and symbolism even on their own. Where African and western regions hold the lion as the king of the animals, the tiger occupies the throne in Asia. This gives tiger tattoos the interpretation of power. After all, the tiger tattoo is a very symbolic design that features a very powerful and dramatic animal.

Zodiac Tattoos
Zodiac tattoo designs are quickly catching up with lot of people. Several people are proud of their zodiac sign and would love to flaunt it. Though there is more to getting a zodiac tattoo than going to the tattoo artist, telling him your zodiac sign and he tattoos it on your skin. Well there is definitely more to it if you want to make it a masterpiece.
Firstly when where is talk about zodiac signs, it is assumed that reference is to sun signs commonly used in the west. But zodiac signs are also local to several cultures in the east. For example India and China have their set of zodiac signs. Both these culture also use 12 signs and the exact sign is determined by the date of birth of the individual. But these are based on complex lunar calendars.
Chinese zodiac signs consist of 12 animals. But the signs are designed in a very creative manner. Chinese zodiac sign is determined by the year of birth of the individual according to the Chinese lunar calendar. Each Chinese calendar is represented by a particular sign. Indian zodiac signs also consist of 12 signs but these signs have different names and designs than those used in the west. To determine the Indian zodiac sign it is important to know the exact time of birth as this system is based on the movements of the moon across the celestial.
Once you have decided upon the zodiac design you will be get tattooed, you can go the easy way and just do a Google search on it and get hundreds of generic designs and use one of them. The disadvantage of this approach is that your tattoo will be really commonplace and no-one will even care to give it a second look. For example if you want to get a tattoo of Libra, you can just take a design showing two unbalanced scales and you are done. If all you want is to get some dime-a-dozen tattoo this should do, but if you want to get a special tattoo which will be gawked at, wherever you go, you will need to do more work on your zodiac design.
Zodiac designs can be easily customized with some out of the box thinking. For example each zodiac sign is associated with a particular gem, so your design can be combined with a design of a gem, moreover each sign is associated with particular colors, so you can color tattoo based on that. Each zodiac sign is also associated with a particular earth element like fire, water, air, etc. You can use your imagination to combine your specific element with your zodiac sign to create a unique design.

Gemini Tattoos
The Gemini tattoo is among the most sought after of the astrological tattoos. For people born between May 22nd and June 23rd, there are very many tattoo designs which are formed around the Gemini theme.
In astrology, Gemini is the third sign of the zodiac. The accompanying tattoo revolves around the symbolism of twins, and the concept of duality, with Apollo and Artemis the deity images usually invoked.
Gemini tattoos represent the idea of twins in a variety of ways, through for instance, the use of Roman numerals, the depiction of twin cats, and blazing skulls.
Also common is the depiction of wolves from ancient Remus and Romulus mythologies. Roman numerals such as II often form the base for simpler designs. Important also to note is that Castor, the head of the right twin, and Pollux, the head of the left, are the two most important stars of the Gemini and hence get real prominence in Gemini tattoo symbolism.
For many people, the favoured location for the Gemini constellation tattoo is the arm or leg, with black ink the favoured coloring. Other favourites include the lower-back and stomach. Courtney Fox of Friends spots a white Gemini tattoo on her stomach.
Gemini tattoo designs vary greatly. Some designs are simple and small while others are large and elaborate. The basic theme can always be mixed with your personal images or lettering.
Before you head off to the tattoo parlour for a tattoo, you should first decide:
1) The size you want the tattoo to be.
2) What part of the body you want the tattoo placed.
3) The pedigree of the tattoo artist you are visting. You want the procedure done by a professional artist with a good reputation, in order to avoid mistakes, and discomfort during the procedure.

One of the first things that catch your eye is the fact that there are a whole lot of tattoo designs to choose from. It almost seems like an infinite supply!! I mean all the walls and every inch of the parlor is just covered top to bottom. It’s something that can make you feel completely overwhelmed. How can you choose a tattoo design from a seemingly endless parade of tattoo designs. One thing that I would recommend is not to rely so heavily on the flash that the parlor has available. You should start your research into the tattoo design that you want way before you even set one big toe inside a parlor. This way you already have a rough idea of what you don’t want and can disregard all the designs that don’t meet your criteria. And the tattoo parlor is the perfect place to get a tattoo design roughed out. And you may even come up with a tattoo design that you never ever have thought of.
Tattoo designs are as varied today as the individuals who get them applied. There are many different types of tattoo pictures to choose from and the tattoo layouts are sometimes influenced by your culture. Tribal tattoo designs are one of the most famous and most successful tattoo designs since hundreds of years. Lower back tattoo designs are becoming increasingly popular among the females. Celtic tattoo designs are based on patterns that are thousands of years old and represent the pride and heart of the Celtic people. Star tattoo designs are extremely popular and as such have come to symbolize a different cultural, social and religious meaning for many millions of people. Feminine tattoo designs are becoming a huge hit with women. And bird tattoo designs are tied to some of the most profound meanings in the tattoo world. The tattoo designs in the picture are all of dragons. There are Korean, Japanese, Chinese and even Western dragons depicted. This allows you to choose a dragon tattoo design your happy with and also get a taste of all the colors that are possible. After all, tattoos are a very personal thing and it’s sometimes best to have a wide variety of designs to look at so you can start getting creative about your design.
