Unicorn tattoos can be a sign of fantasy or deep strength
The unicorn is a well-known symbol for strength, purity, and
innocence -- a harbinger of childhood when such creatures were
possible instead of fantasy. A creature similar to the unicorn is
mentioned in the Bible, also as a symbol for strength. Unicorn
tattoos are a way of reminding yourself of your own strength.
Animal tattoos are often considered to be deeply symbolic in
nature because of the meanings ascribed to them over time. Just like
we know about the phoenix that rises from the ashes, we know that a
unicorn is part of a world more perfect and pure than our own. A
unicorn tattoo brings a person back to that world.
The popularity of fantasy tattoos might be an indicator that
people are looking for a permanent reminder to stay young and
carefree. Of course, a tattoo of a unicorn can also be much deeper
than that. For someone who has gone through a difficult time in
their life, such a tattoo can indicate the strength it took to
overcome the battle. Unicorns also show that there is beauty and
elegance in strength, and that strength can come from an unexpected
source.
To someone who doesn't know about unicorns, at first glance a
tattoo of a unicorn might seem like a less serious piece of body
art. However, a unicorn can be just as deep and meaningful as any
other symbol used in tattooing, as it goes beyond what we associate
with childhood fantasy.
