Tattoos Of Stars

Tattoos of stars are generally connected with masculine groups but the powerful emotions of strength and unity are also very strong among lesbians who have now also adopted the star tattoo and tailored the design to their identity. The most commonly used tattoos of stars are the 4 and 5 pointed designs, but also Moon and Star designs are also popular and can look more feminine than the nautical star. The increasing number of people who are having individual star tattoo designs is down to the fact that it us such a versatile shape that can be adapted and incorporated into many ideas. Many people have small ones done in discreet areas like on the wrist which can be hidden by a watch or bracelet. They are also great for covering up an old tattoo that was maybe done badly. Another great idea is to incorporate it into an existing design to enhance or add detail. Other groups that use the star are the occult or people that practice witchcraft. They use the Pentacle star design which has 5 points and is taken from the Greek word Pentegrammos which means 5 lines. The lines suggest a link to the devil at the points where the lines cross.
Tattoos Of Stars
Here we have some simple tattoos of stars on a persons arm. Very plain and not very flashy but to the person who gets them it says just enough. The stars are all about that person reaching out to strive for bettering themselves and be the best that one can be in whatever one does. That is always a good thing so having tattoos of stars on ones person can never be a negative thing. It is certainly non-offensive and it is hard to imagine that it would turn anybody off. I would think at the very worst, this persons tattoos, being on the inside of his wrist as they are, may not even get noticed by most people. And if that was done on purpose, which it probably was, it just goes to prove the idea that a tattoo is much more of a personal thing then it is about showing off.

The tattoos of stars can actually stand for anything good or positive in ones live so there really is no limit as to what they might mean to someone. The only way to really be sure is to ask the person who has it, what it means to them.
