Shooting Star Tattoos, also known as falling star tattoos, have long been thought to be messages from God. Still to this day, we wish upon stars and this phenomenon is thought to be a carryover from the days when a burning message from the skies flew to earth. The message was always thought to be good luck as it is today when we wish upon a star.
Shooting star tattoos can be worn for any reason. Many people wear them as body art just because they look really great. Shooting star tattoos look really well designed in multiples. Shooting stars happen when earth passes through a fog of cosmic debris. It makes sense to have several of them emanating from a single source. These types of shooting star tattoos look especially nice on the abdominal area of a female. Visualize this design as a 3D with a pinpoint in the back ground and the stars falling out of it in different directions in the forefront, some larger and some smaller, for depth. These shooting star tattoos work well in color or inked in black. However color gives more opportunity to match up with your favorite wardrobe items that leave your tattoo visible ladies.
Meaning of Shooting Star Tattoos
If you’re looking for some meaning in the shooting star tattoos, the good luck and messages from the divine is what you’ll find here. In these shooting star tattoos, if symbolism of the diving is what your after then consider one star for a message from the one and only creator that you believe in, or several (three) for the trinity. The three shooting star tattoos with a spiritual theme can also represent the crucifixion, the three days prior to resurrection, the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, or any other holy symbolism that includes the number three. Believe there are many. If you are going with shooting star tattoos with a spiritual theme and you want to clarify your spiritualism, consider adding another symbol. This will create a themed tattoo, very popular. This gives the opportunity for more color. Here is an example: visualize a plain wooden cross on the barren landscape, a beautiful moon, but dark to see those shooting stars flying from the sky and heading toward the cross, symbolizing messages from His father. The coloring in this tattoo would probably be best in earth tones and natural colors. Placement for this would require a considerable amount of skin; so would wear well on the back or chest. What a glorious tattoo this would make!
For a smaller version of these shooting star tattoos, consider the neck area, or perhaps your legs. You could have the three shooting stars shooting from a cloud, or moon, down your leg or across your neck, to the final destination of a tiny cross.
Finally, many people are star gazers. They come out in droves during the time when we know Earth will be passing through a cloud of cosmic debris. It happens every year. In these shooting star tattoos, it is probable that you’ll want to consider an overstated version of the real thing; perhaps a fire ball flying to Earth. Imagine the color opportunities…
