Zodiac symbols are hugely popular tattoo designs when someone is looking for their first tattoo. Why not get your personal symbol tattooed on your body? The Gemini tattoo is the most sought after tattoo in the Zodiac symbols.
When someone decides to get a Gemini tattoo they usually get it very small. Some people even like to hide the fact that they have the Gemini tattoo on their body, while others will place them in obvious places such as the forearms, neck and shoulders. Some who want to hide their Gemini tattoo will place it on their hip or in other private places of the body, while still some people try to ‘sneak’ their Gemini tattoo in with other designs on their body to hide the symbol.
There are tons of zodiac tattoos that you can place on your body; it’s a matter of choosing the right one for you. The most popular form of this tattoo style is a small and traditional form as well as modern styles added to the tattoo. Adding colors and even Roman numeral signs for a Gemini tattoo is popular.
Most Gemini tattoos are placed on the wrist, ankle and even the hip bone as they are small tattoos. These designs can be large but most people opt to have them smaller to demonstrate their personal zodiac symbol.
There are hundreds and thousands of pictures of zodiac tattoos and Gemini tattoos in general. It’s best to look through pictures and ideas of these tattoos to get a clear idea of what you want.
Tattoo Birth Signs To Show Who You Are
Tattoo Birth Signs To Show Who You Are
If you want instant recognition for who you are, getting a birth sign tattoo is a great idea. Tattoo birth signs are also very distinctive and dramatic. They offer great design options ranging from large to small, outlines to the very detailed.
Tattoo birth signs start with the first of the 12 signs of the Zodiac: Capricorn. This is the sign of those who were born between the December 23rd and January 20th. This sign is represented by the goat. On the plus side, Capricorns are generally very practical and down to earth. Their terrific sense of humor makes it all worthwhile through. The symbol of Capricorn looks great on the shoulder or chest where you have space for lots of detail.
Born from January 21st through February 19th, Aquarius people are under the water symbol. If you’ve seen the musical Hair then you might have heard the song Aquarius about the many attributes of this birth sign such as humanitarian outlook, honesty and loyalty, not to mention the inventiveness of this sign. This sign might be best with tattoo lettering to go with it as some people don’t know what the symbol of the water carry is meant to convey.
Pisces is the sign for those born February 20th through March 20th. This symbol of two fish makes a great tattoo and it is easily identified with the zodiac it represents. Ruled by Neptune, those born during this time are sensitive, imaginative and kind, with an innocent nature. Keep in mind when getting the tattoo for this sign that the traditional colors are sea green and dark green.
Aries, March 21st through April 20th, has the ram as a symbol. This is another great tattoo that can be either detailed or simple. This sign is known for energetic go-getters so go out and get that tattoo.
Taurus folks are born from April 21 through May 21st and their symbol of course is the bull, another great symbol for tattoo art. Bulls can be jealous and a little self indulgent but they’re also patient and warm-hearted.
Gemini is the sign of the twins. From May 22nd to June 21st, this sign is of course about duality. Twins can be somewhat difficult to depict, but many tattoo artists have tackled this problem before and can show you how they solved it.
Cancer, also called the Crab, is from June 22nd to July 22nd and these are the most loyal and easy to be around people of the Zodiac. The sign of the crab is also a great tattoo with a lot of potential for good backgrounds as well.
Leo the lion is perhaps the best for tattoo ink of all the signs, especially since the colors of this sign are gold and ruby red. Born between July 23rd and August 22nd, these folks are warmhearted and free, but they can roar if crossed.
Virgos are born August 23rd through September 23rd and their sign is one of the least easily recognized of the Zodiac. The virgin is usually depicted as a young woman. The tattoo is easy, but the constant explaining to those ignorant of its meaning might be tough.
Libras are born between September 23rd and October 22nd and have love on their minds most of the time. Scales, the symbol for Libra, is very distinctive and recognizable. This tattoo can go anywhere.
A Scorpio tattoo is for those born between October 23rd and November 21st. The symbol looks like an M which might confuse those who aren’t up on things astrological.
Sagittarius folks are born between November 22nd and December 21st and if you want a loyal friend you’ll find them under this sign. The tattoo symbol for this sign is an arrow with a line bisecting it.
Tips To Get Your Zodiac Tattoo
The zodiac tattoo is a great way of telling people something more about who you are–after all, such signs are believed to give an insight into the temperament of a person. Some people are firm believers in the astrological influences on an individual’s life and feel that having their zodiac tattoo would ward off evil spirits. Even though these are non-fussy images they are very symbolic. Simply because there are only 12 zodiacs, does not mean that there is not much choice. You could get the astrological symbols, Chinese, Celtic, or even the Native American representation of your zodiac.
Some people even get a tattoo of the flower that’s associated with their star sign. There are others who opt for their respective elements–sun, water, fire, and wind. Whether you get a black outline or a colored zodiac, where you get the tattoo is also significant. The color associated with each zodiac tattoo is vital; getting the design done in the wrong hue can nullify the effect on having the star sign. There are tattoo studios that make your symbol in Tibetan or Sanskrit. Not only are these scripts beautiful but the fact that the zodiac and these languages saw birth at around the same time makes them an exotic combination.
There are couples who get their partner’s tattoo along with their own as a symbol of their love for each other. The arm and the wrist are great places for these motifs. But if you are getting a zodiac tattoo that has intricate strokes, you must not get it done on a tender spot like your feet. These motifs are generally small and would be relatively inexpensive. Also, it is very important that you take adequate care of the symbol to ensure that it does not become blurred or dull. If it is a colored tattoo, you may have to go to the studio for refilling when the design is fading.
If you are looking for the classic Greek symbols, then the zodiac tattoo may not be very difficult to ink. But for Chinese or even the tribal equivalents, you must ensure that you’re sporting the right tattoo. If you are unsure of the correct symbol, you can always check online; do not let the meaning of the zodiac be lost in translation Most of these websites charge for such a service. You could ask your tattoo artist for more details about your zodiac. Alternatively you could check at the local library for information on these symbols.
Tattoo magazines would have ideas on how you could give that twist to your zodiac. There are some tattoo studios that specialize in these designs. Some tattoos, for instance Gemini, can be done in many different ways; the twins sign is only one of the more popular but there are other options as well. But if your zodiac is Taurus or Libra, you may not have too much choice in its representation. You could combine the zodiac with a tattoo that is not very bold. While it maybe a little tough to experiment with your zodiac tattoo, you could still ask your tattoo artist to make it look unique.
