Tattoo amulets for Indian men is not just a drawing, but a symbol with secret meaning. The most popular body designs in Indian tribes:

Bird - a symbol of freedom

Often, an important life event pushes a person to decide to get a tattoo on his body. Drawings are often made to attract happiness, prosperity, and to protect oneself from evil and envy. Many people simply want to decorate their body artistic painting. Remember that the choice of tattoo cannot be random; everyone must take into account personal aspirations, character, desires, so that the design protects and brings good luck to its owner.

Indian symbol of masculine energy

Once upon a time, a very long time ago, a tattoo was a totemic, clan image. It was used to determine social status, belonging to the clan and the pantheon of gods in which the ancients believed. Tattoos adorned warriors and magicians, shamans and leaders. And, naturally, every people, every tribe had its own images.

We are all familiar with Celtic designs, Japanese and Chinese characters, ornaments of the northern peoples. Later, slaves and criminals began to be branded with tattoos, but even then the culture of tribal and talismanic tattoos was preserved. Unfortunately, in our country, for a long time, tattoos were associated exclusively with the criminal world, the army and the navy. “Rock” paintings such as: “Vasya”, “I will not forget my own mother”, rings indicating the number of “walkers”, the laconic “Airborne Forces” and anchors practically erased the centuries-old history of tattoos and their sacred meaning. But everything comes back. Tattoo culture has also returned. The only difference is that during this time we have all become “people of the world”, and, believing in Christ, we turn to astrological signs, Buddhist and Muslim symbols, to Indian gods and to the mysterious “letters” of eastern languages. Oddly enough, but it all works! Modern man represents such an explosive mixture of faith, superstitions, teachings and traditions from all over the world that only one thing is important - when choosing a tattoo, he must sincerely believe in the power of this image. And further. You need to know which image is responsible for what. This is what we will talk about today.

Why do we get tattoos?

Of course, some people decorate themselves with simply entertaining or colorful pictures just to show their individuality or to pay tribute to fashion. But even in this case, it must be taken into account that any drawing carries a semantic load and means something. So, for example, if you decide to impale a dragon, you must remember that it is “responsible” not only for power, strength and power, but also for, and if the area of ​​​​the drawing is large, then the desire for carnal pleasures may well outweigh common sense, put flesh and strength at the service, and do you need it? Just like wings on the entire back may not be harmless, especially if they are made in black. Therefore, before entrusting your body to a tattoo artist, carefully select a design.

If you want a tattoo to help you, protect you, and bring you good luck, then choose not only with your mind, but also with your heart. You should feel that this particular pattern will make you feel comfortable. It is not at all necessary to cover your body with signs symbolizing glory, etc. Choose one thing to start with. What you're really missing this moment, something you would like to “lure”. If your desire or need is temporary, then the tattoo should be temporary - such a tattoo is applied with henna and lasts, depending on the skin type, from two weeks to a month. For example, you are going on a sea voyage or to a seaside resort and want your voyage to be successful and enjoyable - inject a temporary dolphin - ancient amulet sailors. Or you feel a threat emanating from a certain person, and you need protection, prick a small temporary Eyvaz runic sign in the back area, as soon as the need for protection is no longer necessary, the rune will disappear as if by magic. Just remember that in order for runic signs to work, they must be “treated” to a drop of your blood.

Here are a few more examples of magical tattoos:

  • Four-leaf clover - good luck;
  • Yin and Yang - harmony in love;
  • Indian dream catcher - for insomnia;
  • Hieroglyphs (Chinese and Japanese) - happiness, luck, victory, peace, health, power, etc.;
  • Butterfly - soul, Psyche - inspiration, harmony, lightness;
  • Fish (pisces) – health, happiness, mutual love(if in pairs);
  • Cat – independence, vitality, passion;
  • Flame is renewal, but you need to be careful with this symbol, since renewal through fire is pain and destruction of the past;
  • Runes – protection, rebirth, strength, etc.;
  • Guardian angel – protection from evil spirits, the highest protection.

Since ancient times, one of the most powerful amulets has been considered one’s own, only encrypted, written in another language. Hieroglyphs, Sanskrit, and Arabic script are suitable here. You can make such a tattoo on the back - from top to bottom from the neck (hieroglyphs), or “wrap” the inscription around your ankle.

And also:

  • Zodiac signs in symbols and pictures;
  • Planet symbols.

Let's talk more about astrological tattoos. Your own zodiac sign is excellent, however, if you want some specific changes to happen in your life, then seek help from the power of the planets: Mars? is responsible for energy, Venus? – for emotions, sex, love, Jupiter – for comprehension, etc. That is, if you want love to come into your life, to be surrounded, and if you lack the intensity of emotions, then get a tattoo with the symbol of Venus. If you are not satisfied with the path you are following, if you want to comprehend the meaning of existence, gain new knowledge, then tattoo the sign of Jupiter. If you dream of realizing yourself as a person, choose the sign of the Sun. These tattoos may well be temporary. And it’s better to make your zodiac sign permanent. If you don’t want everyone to see your astrological affiliation, pin a symbol, not a picture. That is, it is absolutely not necessary to colorfully depict Taurus or Libra on the whole back; it will be quite enough to pin it on the shoulder or between the big and index finger tiny icon. This icon will help you show your best qualities more often, strengthen your strengths, and protect you from adversity. Moreover, your zodiac sign will allow you to catch cosmic rhythms, tune in to them, and teach you the timing of words and actions. Such signs are needed by those who have little faith in own strength, suffers from his own inertia and is subject to doubt. A tattoo like this wouldn't hurt either. successful people, especially if they are starting something new and grandiose.

If you want to enlist the cosmic support of yours, but neither the symbolic nor the direct image of the zodiac sign appeals to you, then turn to the power of plants corresponding to your sign. Thus, violet and cornflower correspond to Aries; Taurus – lilac and lily of the valley; For Gemini - daisies and poppies; Raku – water lilies and all white flowers; Leo - peonies and chrysanthemums; Virgo - asters and coltsfoot; Libra – roses (preferably without thorns); For Scorpio – cloves and hop flowers; Sagittarius - narcissist; Capricorn – holly and white carnation; For Aquarius - snowdrops and violets; Pisces - crocuses, primroses and forget-me-nots.

Safety precautions

Still, the magic of tattoos is not harmless. And, like any amulet, a tattoo should be done at the moment when it is needed. Since, if everything is fine with you, if you are full of harmony, you have love and financial independence, then it is better to refrain from getting a tattoo - it can, by changing something seemingly insignificant, radically change your whole life. This is especially true for “hard” tattoos - edged weapons, birds and animals of prey, dragons, even a heart pierced by an arrow, instead of enhancing love, can turn into a broken hearted. Another danger of tattooing is that sometimes a person, when applying a design to his body or hands, does not think about its meaning, but there will always be those who, based on this design, form their opinion about its owner.

So, for example, if you really want to have a baby, then you can easily get a temporary tattoo with the image of a stork, but if you suddenly decide to show your imagination and “put” a naked woman or girl on this stork, so to speak, to be more specific, then such a tattoo will mean that you not only were in a women's colony, but are also a single mother. And the seemingly harmless chamomile symbolizes thieves’ love, and group love at that. The “Star” tattoo is also controversial. Many believe that the stars symbolize spirit, light shining in the darkness, support in the fight against the forces of evil, this is true, but not the whole truth. In addition to these sacred meanings, a tattoo of a specifically voluminous eight-pointed star denotes the “cool” among the prisoners, who supports “denied”, plays cards “for fun”; skulls and other images in stars also belong to the tattoos of the criminal world and are distinctive signs of “godfathers” and thieves in law.

So, before you decorate your body with a temporary, and even more so a permanent tattoo, study the history and symbolism of the picture you like, so as not to harm yourself and not to mislead others.

Tattoo amulets are a design on the body made by a tattoo artist using an induction or rotary machine. The very essence of the process is to slightly injure the skin, which allows you to fill the subcutaneous tissue with coloring pigment.

IN ancient Egypt special drawings applied to certain areas of the body served as protection from the evil glances and thoughts of enemies. The Indians used strokes on their bodies to mark the number of enemies killed.

In Asian countries, women were tattooed with amulets below the navel to protect future offspring. In every country, anywhere globe had their own customs and traditions. But all the drawings applied to the body, as a rule, were intended to provide protection or patronage of the gods. Nowadays, there are three main types of tattoos:
