Angelina Jolie Tattoos – Meanings Of Angelina Jolie Tattoo
Posted by Tattooaholic
Among the many things that the striking beautiful actress Angelina Jolie is good at, you have to list coming up with ideas for personally meaningful tattoos. While many of us have to search the brain bank of pictures on the internet and strike up conversations with other tattoo enthusiasts, Angelina seems content to ferret ideas from her own mind.
Her amazing body has been decorated with body art for many years. They have no real connection apparently except for the fact that the actress seems to favors dark ink, tribal or Gothic type markings and script.
“Know your rights” is tattooed between Angelina’s shoulders in Gothic script. This is a song title from a favorite band of hers.
A Buddhist Pali incantation decorates her left shoulder blade. The words appear to be written from the side, so to read the script you need to look at it with your head leaning to the left. The script is created to look like the shape of Khmer Cambodia’s official language. This is rumored to be for the protection of Maddox her adopted son who was born in Cambodia.
She has a tattoo in an Arabic font on her right arm. There is confusion as to whether this says Strength of Will or Determination. The confusion might be caused by the fact this Angelina Jolie tattoo covers a previous tattoo she made with Billy Bob Thornton.
The Roman number 13 can be seen on her left underarm. She doesn’t believe in the superstition about the number and wanted to prove it. She also has initials on in this location too, which caused some talk when she first got it, but it turns out this was just a tattoo to express her feelings for Winston Churchill. The WWII leader proclaimed “I have nothing to offer, but blood, toil, tears, and sweat.” He made this statement on 13th May 1940.
On her left arm is a quote from writer Tennessee Williams “A prayer for the wild at heart kept in cages.”
She has a Gothic looking cross with the phrase Quod me nutrit me destruit, which is Latin for “What nourishes me, destroys me”. She got this before marrying her first husband Johnny Lee Miller. Fans often wonder what he thought of that.
On her wrist she has a small rune style tattoo that looks like an h. There is a lot of speculation about what this could mean including a reference to her ex-love Timothy Hutton or could it be her brother James Haven this symbolizes? Of course it could be something only she knows.
The groups of numbers on her shoulder and upper arm written in a straight line running downward are the geographical sites where she first saw her children.
She has a Bengal tiger tattoo on her lower back to commemorate her Cambodian citizenship.
Of course, the canvas of her skin is constantly changing so she might have already found new tattoos to add to her collection. Like many people, she has found the ultimate way to express herself through body art.
