Tribal tiger tattoos

Tribal tiger tattoos

Tribal tiger tattoos
Tribal tiger tattoos can be an excellent way to combine your appreciation of tribal work and the symbolism of this magnificent cat. With so many kinds of types of cats and so many different styles of tribal work the possibilities are nearly endless.

Tiger tattoo designs

Tribal tiger tattoos
In Asia tattoos hold significance other than for appearances. Tattoos are said to be the link between the physical and spiritual bodies of a human being. Most people believe tattoos are an outward manifestation of the inner being; therefore the tiger is representative of a forceful nature equal only to the dragon. There are 5 tigers that rule the cosmic forces in Chinese lore.

Tiger tattoo

Tribal tiger tattoos
* The RED tiger is the symbol of the south, of summer and fire.
* The BLACK tiger is the symbol of the north, of winter and water.
* The BLUE tiger is the symbol of the east, of spring and vegetation.
* The WHITE tiger is the symbol of the west, of fall and all metals.
* The YELLOW tiger, the greatest of the 5 is the ruler of the Earth and everything on it.



  
There are also 5 different sub-species.
* BENGAL
* SUMATRAN
* SIBERIAN
* INDOCHINESE
* SOUTH CHINA
These could easily be incorporated into a very distinct, one of a kind tattoo steeped in symbolism.
Tribal tiger tattoos
One of the twelve signs of the Chinese Zodiac is the tiger. Those born in the year of the tiger are said to be colorful, unpredictable, powerful and passionate. The zodiac symbol done in tribal tattoo  style would make for an eye - catching conversation piece. This tattoo could practically be as small or large as you wish it to be as the zodiac symbol can be made smaller without losing too much picture quality.  
Tribal tiger tattoos
To create the tribal tiger tattoos one could begin by marrying traditional tribal work with traditional Japanese (In Asia, the tiger is the master of all big cats.), this would be a very colorful and detailed piece to show the best of both styles. The traditional Japanese work is done in vivid color and detail, while traditional tribal is single color; (typically dark, as the original tribal work was done with whatever suitable pigment could be found.) with varying degrees of detailed patterns.
These tattoos work very well with the cats natural black stripe pattern, making them re-creatable to an almost life-like degree. The amber/golden, almost molten color of the tiger-eye would be striking against an all black tribal piece. Putting a little extra effort and thought will give you a showpiece to enjoy and show off to others for a lifetime.

 Teeming individuals admit that these magical sprites were mean business underground by their enemies who used consolidated weapons censure them. This is supposedly why people who believed string fairies began the tradition of placing a horseshoe leading the door for luck.

 But before we verve unit further, undeniable ' s marked to bear drag apperception that the pioneer fairies were duck egg such the sickeningly sweet folktale served up by Disney. The standard fairies were unrecompensed spirits who were thanks to likely to shower gifts on persons they liked now play mischievous tricks on individuals that they didn't.

 And finally, due to the detailed nature of most fairy designs, make sure that your tattoo artist has previous experience of creating this type of tattoo. If possible, take a look at the portfolio of fairy tattoos that they ' ve already created.

New Tasmania Tattoo Design

New Tasmania Tattoo Design

Tazmania Tattoo Design



Tasmanian Devil Tattoo - Many great legends have their origin in fact and the Tasmanian Devil is no exception. Now extinct in Australia, the large-toothed and carnivorous devil survives on the southern Australian island state of Tasmania. It was named for its ferocious snarl and bad temper and with its large squarish head and stout body, it looks somewhat like a small bear. Playing on these themes, one of the most endearing and popular of the Warner Brothers characters was born in 1954 when “Devil May Hare” debuted. Whirling like a small tornado, the Tasmanian Devil plowed his way through shrubbery, jungle, and boulders in order to find his next meal. In a pattern that would become well known, frightened animals stamped in terror before him while only the clever Bugs Bunny remained calm, managing to eventually outwit the fierce but hapless Taz. He may not be the most clever of the cartoon characters, but he remains an absolute icon in tattoo symbolism because of the tremendous energy and enthusiasm that is his persona. In fact, he’s even a bit of an innocent, often easily duped by the rascally rabbit. While he may be constantly in search of the next tasty morsel, his strategies are completely in the present, with his instincts leading him, not malice. Like other popular tattoo symbols, Taz is versatile and adaptable to the circumstances, sometimes wearing a sailor’s cap or other times a Hawaiian lei. Of course when he’s toting his favorite beverage and obviously ready to party, it’s probably in everybody’s best interest not to argue

Japanese Koi Fish Tattoo Design for Girls

Japanese Koi Fish Tattoo Design for Girls

When you finally visit the tattoo parlor for your Koi fish tattoo you need to have a clear opinion of the color scheme you want the tattoo drawn in. A very popular color scheme is the time-honored Yen Yang design of black and white. For many of this classical arrangement is a little too conservative and tame and they prefer to choose another more vivid arrangement.

Japanese Koi Fish Tattoo Design


For example if you have a dark or olive skin color it may be more appropriate to select a bright hue so the Koi fish tattoo is more noticeable. If you are wanting to go the more traditional style, you may want to choose one of the Koi’s natural colors such as white, red, black, yellow or gold, or perhaps a mixture of those colors.

Ideally it is best to choose a color design that compliments your skin tone. As a suggestion, if you have yellowish tone in your skin it might be more appropriate to have a gold or yellow and red tattoo. If you have pink to your skin, black, white, red, or blue may be the best color selection for your Japanese Koi fish tattoo design.

Tattoo Positioning
Have you any idea where you intend to position your tattoo? It is recommended that you make sure that your Koi fish tattoo has a place of honor on your body. You must also ensure it is in a place on your body that you can live with. For example, if your work place is of a conservative nature which frowns on employees having ‘out there' body art or has a strict dress code you may not want your tattoo on your hand, face, neck or lower arm where the tattoo is readily visible and almost impossible to camouflage with clothing.

Japanese Koi Fish Tattoo DesignOn the other hand, if you are free to show off your lucky Japanese Koi fish tattoo design, consider placing it on the small of your back, your forearms, around the side of your neck or even swimming around your ankle, as is one of the preferred places for female wearers of the Japanese Koi fish tattoo.

Koi Tattoo Environments
Once you have decided what your tattoo is going to look like and where it is going to be put, you need to give consideration to what other features you would like to include with the design. A popular and effective addition to the Koi design is a flowing stream, a calm pool or even rocky rapids. Combine your Japanese Koi fish tattoo design with a few unique inclusions such as your favorite Japanese symbol and it will result in a tattoo of high quality that can be cherished throughout the years by both the wearer and the admirers

Tattoo Is a Cultural Sacred Design


Tattoo Is a Cultural Sacred Design


Yesterday I wrote a post on Is Tattoo Just A Body Art or A Cultural Sacred Design and this has been my most popular post as many people are interested in tattoo. There are 2 main reasons as to why people decide to get tattoo, as for some, they only see tattoo as a body art, the canvas is on the human body, a very fascinating concept to me. I don’t have a tattoo, but I do see the beauty in tattoos and this type of tattoo is more popular amongst women and very popular in Japan from what I have came across.

angelina-jolies-tattoo-uploaded-jose-m-ruiz-garrido-at-flickr.jpg
This video of Thai spiritual tattoo, also known as Sak Yant by Ajahn Noo Kanpai is very interesting, I’ve seen the actual temple tattoo on a friend, which I think it’s fascinating because it’s not your ordinary tattoo; the design has a religious feel to it.


Ajarn Noo does 2 types of tattoos, and both are cultural sacred designs. The first is at the very beginning of the video where the designs of the tattoo is invisible, but the main purpose is to gain wisdom, possess power of kindness as he uses a special ointment of varnt (special roots from plants), the process of Sak Yant is exactly the same as using black ink, in this case a very sacred design.

temple-tattoo.jpg
Another is the sacred design that deemed to possess magic power of protection; he puts Monh (magic) of prayers inside the design, which I believed was written in Pali, Sanskrit. Thai Temple tattoo of Sak Yant (photo on right hand side,) which is geometrically designs that deemed to possess magic powers of protection is very popular amongst Asian warriors, such as the Thais, Laotians, and Khmers in the old days and still very popular today.

There are other designs such as the lion (Singhto), which is a symbol of bravery and cunning. Thai men would choose a tiger design, not just a picture of a tiger but tattoo their body to look like tiger, many have had designs that covered every square inches of their body. The reason for the tiger design is that Thai people, especially the Lanna, believed that their ancestors were once tiger, therefore to show respect and in remembrance of their ancestors, they’d choose the tiger design. Another popular one is the hanuman, which is the Hindu monkey god, which is to protect against illness, against being shot, against being cut, and to give courage.

In part of the video where the men have strange reaction, it is believed that the sacred designs that were tattooed (Sak) into their body, whether it be the tiger, dragon, or hanuman would come out and they’d act like the animal that they chose, and this is a sign that that person truly gained the power of protection. Sak Yant is very fascinating to me; to the Thais, Laotians, Khmers, and many others, tattoo is not just a body art but also a sacred design.

As I’ve mentioned in my previous post, these tattoos are not like the modern tattoos that are merely a fashion statement, but more of a cultural belief and most, if not all have Monh (magic) of prayers in the design, of course, along with the tattoo came few rules that one has to follow to keep the magic strong,

Rules of Abstention:


1. Do not eat Star fruit, Pumpkin, or any other “Gourd” type Vegetable.
2. Do not Be anybody’s Lover who is already married
3. FORBIDDEN in Extreme, to slander anybody’s Mother (this means most women, if you think about it).

looking for unique Libra tattoos:

I thought it would be next to impossible to find a collection of one-of-a-kind tattoos as I would have to trudge through God knows how many websites but to my amazement, I couldn’t have been more wrong. Some words of wisdom from my good buddy Jerry Chuan finally set me on the right path and helped me accomplish my mission with relative ease. Here are some tips that you should do well to remember when looking for unique Libra tattoos:

Libra tattoos
Don’t be a freebie seeker.
Chuan showed me the error of my ways so to speak, and made me realize that “free” and “unique” do not go hand in hand. Spending a tad amount of cash can really go a long way in helping you secure a design that will be a part of your body for the rest of your life. You wouldn’t want to fork out your hard-earned bucks for a laser surgery or cover-ups, right? Of course not! You’re better off spending the extra dough on a large pizza (sorry, can’t resist the pun) with all the trimmings to celebrate the end of your search for unique Libra tattoos.

Don’t spend too much
Libra tattoosWhile it’s important to spend a little bit of cash in order to get top quality designs, it’s also important that you do not fork out more than what is necessary in light of the abysmal state of the current global economy, and the large number of paid tattoo gallery sites that charge a fee per design. Decent gallery sites always strive to provide value by constantly updating their databases with original creations for a low one-time price. This means that you can print out as many unique Libra tattoo designs as you like and bring them to your favorite tattoo shop or artist for further action. I don’t believe in paying 10 to 20 dollars for a mere design, and you should feel the same way too.

Avoid Google Image Search

Remember, the key word here is: UNIQUE. Refrain from using Google Image Search function unless you love being bombarded with designs that are so devoid of originality.

Reputable Online Galleries and Tattoo Magazines Can Make Things Easy For You

Libra tattoosOnline galleries like Tattoo Me Now and Chopper Tattoo have done a great job of furnishing tattoo enthusiasts worldwide with thousands of high quality, printable tattoo flashes. The former allows you the option of combining two or more tattoos into one design so you won’t be terribly hard-pressed to come up with some unique Libra tattoos that’ll make heads turn.

My buddy Chuan opined that tattoo magazines are the best for sourcing tattoo ideas. Although I prefer scouring online galleries, I do agree that you can easily find inspiration from looking at photos in tattoo magazines such as Skin and Ink, Tattoo Review, and Inked. These magazines contain a truckload of wild designs to help jump start your creative juice so don’t be surprised if you end up getting flooded with tons of ideas for creating unique Libra tattoos.

Is Tattoo Just A Body Art or A Cultural Sacred Design

Is Tattoo Just A Body Art or A Cultural Sacred Design?

Today I found an interesting story about Pee Bpop (ghost that has the tendency to take over a person’s body before eating it’s victim) and I’m hoping to translate it but I want to learn a bit more about the ghost. When I was little living in Laos, we were told to run for cover whenever Pee Bpop was closed by, but what I saw was either an old man or old lady passing by, I guess they were the Pee Bpop. I have a friend that I thought might know a thing or two about Pee Bpop, so I visited him over the weekend, just my luck that I went to the right person, not that he was a Pee Bpop or anything like that, if that was the case, it’d not have been safe for me to stay there at all since I’m still sick, Pee Bpop has the tendency to take over a sick (weak) person’s body. What was interesting was the story of how and why people became Pee Bpop back in Laos, and Issan region of Thailand. I’ve always wondered if Pee Bpop really exists or if it’s mostly a belief of Lao and Issan people, until this day I still don’t have an answer. I do find the story to be fascinating, so I’ll be translating a story of Pee Bpop of Savannakhet, Laos in the next couple of days, should be interesting.
My friend said that in Laos, those that became Pee Bpop were the one that studied Monh (black magic), many times, these Monh (magic) should be used to help people, and certainly not for greed; if misused or abused in any way, the black magic can backfire, and take control of their body and become Pee Bpop; Monh (black magic) is certainly not something that people should be messing around with.


What I’ve found fascinating is the temple tattoo because it’s not your ordinary tattoo; the design has a religious feel to it. I’ve noticed that many Lao and Thai men, especially the older men would have these tattoos on their body. He explained to me that these tattoos have Monh (magic) of prayers in the design, therefore there’re strict rules that must be followed or otherwise he said that the chance of becoming Pee Bpop or crazy is highly likely, very strange concept I thought to myself, I guess if voodoo exists, then this should also, I’d say, if you don’t believe, don’t mock.

tattoo for protectionMy friend also has one on his back, which looks very much like a Thai Temple tattoo of Sak Yant, which are geometrically designs that deemed to possess magic powers of protection, which was given by a monk or Arjarn (holy man) and would put Monh (magic) of prayers inside the design, which was written in Pali Sanskrit. He said that when he had his done, the pain was excruciating, it started by the holy man chanting in ancient Sanskrit while sticking him with the sharp needles, and then with the final blow of breath on his back then it was done, and I guess the blow sealed the magic. He was a former soldier in Laos, therefore needed the tattoo for protection, and said that most of his fellow soldiers also had theirs’, some on their backs and others on their arms or legs. When he came to the US, he had Arjarn (holy man) to undo the Monh (magic), so his tattoo currently has no magical power.

There are other designs such as the lion (Singhto), which is a symbol of bravery and cunning.

The reason for the tiger design is that Thai people, especially the Lanna, believed that their ancestors were once tiger, therefore to show respect and in remembrance of their ancestors, they’d choose the tiger design.

These tattoos are not like the modern tattoos that are merely a fashion statement, but more of a cultural belief and most, if not all have Monh (magic) of prayers in the design, of course, along with the tattoo came few rules that one has to follow to keep the magic strong, such as women are not to touch your head or rub your hair, you couldn’t walk under a clothesline, couldn’t eat certain foods, couldn’t eat at a funeral home (a wake), and the list goes on.

Back in the olden day, if you were a young man and had no tattoo on your body, forget about finding a girl friend or a wife because most girls would not give you their time of the day, they would only choose the one with tattoo; they believed that if you couldn’t stand the pain, how could you protect them. Such a relief for the modern Lao and Thai men; aren’t some of you single guys out there glad that you don’t have to go out and get tattoos.
