Star tattoos are among the most popular types of tattoos. There are a number of different themes and meanings that can be represented using star tattoos. Many people who are interested in astrology decide to tattoo stars on themselves. These stars may be a single star or may even be a constellation of stars that are commonly seen in the skies at night. Other common meanings for star tattoos include wishing (as in, wishing upon a star), heaven and change. This is because as the Earth rotates at night the position of the stars in the sky are constantly changing and moving. If you are interested in tattooing stars on yourself but are unsure about what some of the common meanings are, you may want to consider the following information;
Astrology
Anyone who is into astrology knows what an important part stars and the skies play. To someone who is interested in astrology, there are many different reasons why they may choose to tattoo some stars on themselves. For those who are interested in it, stars may play a very important role in their life. Individuals who believe in astrology sometimes believe that using the stars can accurately predict the future, and the day that you are born will tell a lot about a person and how they interact with the rest of the world. Those who are interested in astrology may choose to tattoo a single star, or a set of stars on themselves in order to properly convey whatever message they are looking to convey through the rules of astrology.
Change
Stars have often been associated with change. This is because as the night drags on, the stars move across the sky. They never remain in one spot, and continually do this same motion night after night. This may also be because when someone wishes upon a star, they are more than likely wishing for some sort of major change in their life. There are many different reasons why stars have been known to represent change, and really most of them are up to the interpretation of the individual who is looking to get the tattoo.
Wishing
Wishing upon a star was a term that was popularized by Disney and Jimminy Cricket. However, before that, it was still common place to look toward the stores when you were making a wish. In fact, this practice can be traced back all the way to Before Christ because many people would look to the heavens when they prayed. This practice is still in effect today, and has become the norm for many people.
There are many great places for star tattoo designs on the body. Some of the more popular areas include behind the ear, on the shoulder, on the back, or on the legs. The larger the area, the more intricate the design can be. Some people choose to tattoo only a single star on themselves, while others may choose to tattoo three or four different stars, or even an entire system of stars on themselves.
