Different tattoos will have different meanings to an individuals. For instance, the wings are tattoos that can be associated with nature or fantasy or spiritualism. Wings are often seen in birds, dragonflies, fairies, angels and are usually engraved at the back of an individual because this is wear the wings originate in the body of a being. Recently, both men and women have adopted this design expressing their freedom and individualism.
The designs of these wings are usually taken from birds like eagles, vultures depicting strong and tough body.
The use of tattoo taken from nature makes the relationship between independence of a free bird flying in the sky. In the same way the human life has become so stressful and vigorous that some kind of freedom has become an important element. This is the reason, people use tattoo as a form for medium of expression usually made on their back.
These wing tattoos can be gender specific also. A woman would like to get a angel tattoo on her back to maintain her feminine attributes. Angels symbolizes some form of purity and a mark of god's messenger. The wings of the angel tattoo are also made on the back. Angel wings can be incorporated with other designs like a cupid. However, it is not specific that the design has to be made on the back. It can also be made on other parts of the body depending upon one's needs and interest.
Mythological characters can be used for tattooing. Examples from the past can be dragons. These wings can depict the four elements of life, wind, water, fire and sky or any king of change or transformation that might be a result of some magic. Valerie Althorpe
