Fairy Tattoos – A Symbol of Hope and Happiness

by admin

When we were small children we all liked listening to the fairy tales and all the magical things they could do. These creatures were our favorite ones in our childhood and to some people, they still represent something important. People often choose fairy tattoos as a symbol of youthful hope, a sign that all of innocence has not been lost. Many see them as a testament to the ability to hang on to happier childhood days a while longer. These small symbols can bring hope and can be very uplifting. Others choose fairy tattoos because of the simple beauty it represents. A symbol of elegance and wonder that often cannot be found in the mundaneness of the real world.

If we have to define the word fairy, we have to see that this word derives from the Latin word “fata” and it is commonly understood to mean fate or destiny. Many people see fairies as a last resort hope. Do you remember the story of Peter Pan, the child who never wanted to grow? Well, like in Peter Pan, Tinker bell is always Peter’s last hope for escape and survival. Over the years, fairies have been used throughout folklore and stories, and as the beautiful and mysterious being that steps in to help when all seems lost. Fairies are often thought of as childlike or peaceful. Many people see fairies as being that only see the good, they not been jaded as the rest of the characters in their stories.

You will find that fairy tattoos come in many different shapes and sizes. There are small girls with sparkles and glitter. These tattoos are often made in childlike poses with flowers or butterflies and can represent a childlike spirit or hope. They are as the fairies we all have seen in our stories books of our childhood and transport us to the world where everything is perfect and pleasant.

On the other side of the spectrum, you can find fairy tattoos designed in the likeness of a young and beautiful woman. These fairies are often more mysterious and sexual in their design, very slim and extremely attractive. Fairy tattoos of this design will often be in flowing gowns with a much more erotic or sexual pose used. These designs are often a sign of the temptress many wish to be. A sign of beauty and peace with just a bit of humanity mixed in.
