Tattoos and astrology have become increasingly popular in recent years. Both astrology and tattoos play an important role in identification and expression. You can tell a lot about someone based on their tattoos and what to expect from their personality. Some Vedic astrologers even believe that if you get a specific tattoo on a specific area, you can protect yourself from the harm that a particular planet can cause in your life. Tattoos can be seen as astrological remedies, some astrologers would know where on your body you have a tattoo based on your birth chart – what a skill!
If you’re curious about tattoos and how they relate to your zodiac, read on:
Ram
Aries is the zodiac sign most likely to have a tattoo on their body. This is because Mars, the ruler of Aries, also rules needles and tattoos. In addition, Aries are extremely cheeky: they love to attract attention in any way. An Aries is likely to get big tattoos that are in your face and bold, they like to come across as fierce and fearless. This is the sign that is most likely to have a huge sleeve on their arms or a big back piece. This sign is courageous and adventurous, they are absolutely not afraid of a little pain. Moreover, tattoos make them look extra tough and intimidating! They are also likely to get a tattoo on a whim without much thought since this sign is so impulsive.
Taurus
Taurus is a sensual sign ruled by the planet of love and beauty, Venus. It will take a Taurus forever to make up their mind about what tattoo they want because they are the sign most aware of permanence and things that last forever. A Taurus may be afraid that he has made the wrong decision and must bear the consequence of it forever on his body. Fortunately, a Taurus is quite firm in their decision making and once they make up their mind, they are usually very sure about it. A good idea for a Taurus is to get a tattoo that is relatively small and can be easily hidden. However, a Taurus is quite sentimental, so it’s also important to have a meaning behind the tattoo. This board goes for something simple, yet aesthetically pleasing and beautiful.
Twin
Gemini has a YOLO attitude and will try anything at least once. They like variety and usually opt for more than one tattoo to express the different sides of their personality. They like images that show their duality, such as images of faces or things that come in pairs, such as birds. There is an element of randomness in their tattoos. Their tattoos are usually quite expressive and creative to show their wild and interesting ideas. Geminis are very communicative and with their tattoos they can say a lot! This sign often uses media references in their tattoos. They use images from their favorite movies, music or favorite works of art as their tattoos.
Cancer
Cancer is one of the most sentimental signs in the zodiac. When choosing a tattoo, a Cancer will often choose an image that reminds them of something or someone, such as a deceased relative or their pet. They are also the type to commemorate their life partner by, for example, getting a wedding ring tattoo instead of wearing a wedding ring. The most important thing for a Cancer when it comes to choosing a tattoo is that it is important and meaningful in some way. However, Cancer is the sign least likely to get a tattoo as they are quite private and don’t like people knowing too much about them. A Cancer also doesn’t like drawing too much attention to themselves and this is another reason why they tend to avoid tattoos.
Lion
Leos are bold, lively and very creative. This sign likes to stand out from the crowd and draw as much attention as possible. They often choose tattoos that express their individuality and how special and unique they are. It’s not uncommon for a Leo to want to bask in their own glory; he or she can even get a tattoo with his own name or something great that he or she has achieved in his life. Lions also tend to tattoo lions or lionesses on their bodies to represent their own ferocity, fierceness and power. The colors they go for will also be quite bold and eye catching. Leos are very stylish, so the designs they choose will reflect their eye for aesthetics through their beautiful design.
Virgin
Virgos are meticulous and perfectionist by nature, everything they strive for in life has to be absolutely perfect. Their strong attention to detail ensures that they put a lot of thought and research into the tattoos they choose. Some Virgos might choose to stay away from tattoos completely, while others will have insanely intricate and well-thought-out concepts on their bodies; it all depends on the Virgo. Simple line work is often the tattoo of choice for a Virgo. They like everything to be straight forward and straightforward, but the tattoo will definitely have a specific intention with a deeper meaning behind it.
Scale
Libra is the sign known for its beauty and poise. Whatever tattoo a Libra chooses, it is sure to be beautiful. This sign usually chooses something conventionally beautiful, such as images from nature, such as flowers, birds, or animals. Libra is also the sign that rules relationships, so it’s not uncommon for a Libra to get a tattoo to somehow memorialize their romantic partner – they can get a tattoo of their name or a portrait of their face. They want to show their partner how important they are to them. Libras are very classic and they know what works for them.
Scorpion
Scorpio is the sign of extremes, they tend to have an all-or-nothing approach to life, and this includes their body modifications. Some Scorpios prefer to be subtle in their approach to tattoos, placing them in secret places to maintain an air of mystery. While other Scorpios will get in your face and be brutal with their tattoos. Since Scorpio is the sign of transformation, this sign can choose to get tattoos every time they go through something. It’s almost a way of branding themselves every time they’ve survived something. Scorpios often choose rather dark images to tattoo themselves with, such as snakes, scorpions or dead roses.
Archer
Sagittarius is the free spirit of the zodiac who likes to have all kinds of adventures. This is the sign that they are most likely to love to travel because they care so much about their independence and freedom. A Sagittarius will often choose to get a collection of tattoos from around the world to commemorate their adventures and remind them of the places they’ve been and seen. Sagittarius is also an incredibly spiritual sign and they can even opt for a tattoo of a chakra, a profound quote or a spiritual or religious symbol that they picked up on one of their trips abroad.
Ibex
Capricorns are quite serious by nature. They are typically reserved and responsible, but they certainly know how to let loose and have fun! Capricorns are extremely ambitious and often use their tattoos as motivation to inspire them to achieve their goals. They like to use their tattoos as inspiration for the success they want to achieve in their lives. But for other Capricorns, tattoos might just be a creative outlet for them. However, this sign is hyper aware of their image and knows exactly what they are doing when they choose a tattoo. The tattoos they go for are usually minimal and well thought out. Most Capricorns also have a dark side, so they may also choose dark images to express themselves.
Aquarius
The weird and wacky Aquarius is certainly unique and a thoroughly individualist. This sign tends to go for images that express how different they are. They are very unconventional and tend to be trendsetters in whatever they do. They could even start a new tattoo trend that everyone will eventually copy. It’s not uncommon for an Aquarius to design their own tattoos to make sure no one else in the world has them. This sign will think hard about what they tattoo on their body. But whatever they choose, it should absolutely remind them and everyone else of their individuality.
Fishing
Pisces is the dreamer of the zodiac and absolutely loves fantasy. They are quite creative and imaginative, so the tattoos they choose are usually interesting and extraordinary. There is a tendency among Pisces to get tattoos with an element of water in them, whether that be an image of a fish, a wave, or even a mermaid. Pisces often opt for tattoos that are quite dreamy and ethereal. They like images that are quite magical in nature. This sign is also quite spiritual so it could also be something they are attracted to if they have spiritual or religious elements in their tattoos.
