There are two kinds of people in the world, one that just walks into a tattoo parlor out of peer pressure and to be a part of the cool tribe with absolutely no clue of tattoos and the other that only get themselves tattoo when the design strikes a chord with them.
The first kind only sees tattoos as a form of fashion whereas the others understand that they are extremely personal. Each tattoo means something to the individual and has a holistic spiritual, emotional, mental connection apart from the obvious physical. In case you are looking for tattoo designs that hold a deep meaning, here are a few:
#1. Greek Symbol Of Inguz
The symbol part of the great Greek civilization has a deep meaning just like all ancient runes do. It means where there is a will; there is a way. This motivational message would keep one encouraged to push through all the hurdles of life.

#2. Butterflies
Yes, butterflies may seem like a very shallow art form in terms of tattoos but it is not so. A butterfly emerges from the cocoon and nearly dies during its metamorphosis, but the result is a beautiful being that can fly. Similarly, the tattoo represents gradual change and re-birth. The Japanese were of the belief that a butterfly stands for someone’s soul while the Greek word for butterfly means a soul.

#3. Om
The meaning of the word 'om' is profound. According to Hindu scriptures, the universe is made up of vibrational sound energies and this symbol and the sound it produces was the first sound of creation. The symbol looks graceful and makes for a great tattoo choice. Study more on it before you plan to get it inked.
