The meaning behind moon tattoos
When you think of celestial tattoos, what do you think of? Maybe
the sun comes to mind -- there are lots of cool designs for that. Or
perhaps you think of star tattoos shooting across your arm or back.
But the moon is also a great place to look to for tattoos. Moon
tattoos are the perfect celestial tattoo if you want something that
looks great and is symbolic.
Remember the saying "once in a blue moon"? Perhaps you've been
through something rare or unexpected that you'd like to commemorate
with a tattoo that says even the impossible can happen -- once in a
blue moon. A blue crescent moon or a well-shaded blue moon tattoo
will look really cool and mean a lot.
There are other meanings behind the moon. In the study of
astrology, the sun is masculine and the moon is feminine. According
to this area of study, the moon symbolizes fertility and the womb.
For a woman who takes pride in her femininity or motherhood, a
tattoo of a moon would be a perfect way to illustrate those ideas.
Tattoos of the moon look great when done with other design
elements too. Perhaps you'd like to work a fairy into your moon
image, as fairies are often associated with nature. The sun and moon
tattooed together is another idea and makes a great symbol of
balance or duality. The moon makes for a cool tattoo, whether you're
considering a harvest moon, the man in the moon, or a moon floating
among clouds.
