There are many popular tattoo design ideas out there today. For the most part a tattoo artist will be able to make the design original so it does not look like everyone else who has a Mickey Mouse tattoo. Today the tattoo field is so diverse that you are almost guaranteed a unique tattoo. There are many artists who specialize in certain tattoos. Such as Kat Von D and her amazing portrait style tattoos. I want to go over a few popular tattoo design ideas and give you the meaning of the tattoo.
The Koi Tattoo is a Japanese style tattoo that has a great meaning. I personally have a koi tattoo and chose it for a couple reasons. One because I love fish, and the other is the meaning behind a koi. The koi is said to come from the yellow river. It swims up water falls in this river and once it reaches a point in the river and it climbs its final waterfall it is said that the koi turns into a dragon. It is also said that when caught the koi will lie on the cutting board not moving a muscle just waiting to be killed. To me the koi represents all the qualities of a warrior. This also represents to me the overcoming of huge obstacles, the ability to achieve high goals, and transformation.
Another popular Japanese style tattoo is the phoenix. The phoenix is a great tattoo to get. If you have or can find a really great artist that specializes in Japanese art that is what I would use for this tattoo. Due to the fact that this is also a very intricate tattoo I would find an artist that is good with lots of detail. The detail in a proper phoenix tattoo is very important. The phoenix has lots of feathers and should look almost flamboyant; however don't let the flamboyant thing turn you off to this tattoo design idea. The phoenix is a mythical bird that when it dies it bursts into flames and from the ashes a new phoenix is born. This is a tattoo that has a lot to do with transition, transformation, and a new birth.
The nautical star has become very popular for many people including punk rockers and people in the military. Originally the meaning behind the star was the ability to find your way home. As the shape is more or less a compass. It may also have the meaning of finding your way through life. So the round about meaning of a nautical star is finding direction.
Whatever you may choose for your tattoo design, make sure you think about it long and hard because the fact remains you are going to have to live with is for a very long time. These are just a few ideas to get the creative juices flowing.
