Tattoo something you value on your arm. Proclaim loud and clear - and in ink - that which you stand for or stand behind. Some ideas could be your faith, your politics, your belief system E.g peace sign, cross sign, music note symbol.
Who do you love? Your children’s names, your lover, your hero, your mom - these are classic tattoo symbols.
Eternity tattoo designs - are perfect for tattoos. Tattoos are for life, and so eternity symbols are a match made in heaven.
Animal tattoos - each culture will oftem imbue animals with deep meaning. Look for animal totems if you are into native culture.
Birds too are very popular. For example, the dove is a bird associated with peace - and weddings. The swallow is popular with sailors, fighters, and travelers.
Cultural symbols. Each culture has patterns and designs that they hold dear to them. Celtic knots and designs, tribal tattoos, aboriginal designs all make popular tattoos. As do Japanese Tattoos. They withstand the test of time.
