Recently, the culture of tattoos has entered the life of ordinary citizens. And if earlier it was the prerogative of thieves in law and prisoners to inject drawings on the body, for which special pictures were important, and it was only necessary to “read” them correctly, today it is one of the elements of body decoration. Nevertheless, tattoos have their own meanings. In this article I want to consider the drawing "deer" (tattoo), the meaning of such a sketch.
A few words about deer
By themselves, these animals have always represented such positive qualities as purity, beauty and fidelity. Reindeer have always been respected and treated with great care. To this also can be added the fact that these animals are of particular importance to men. Indeed, in nature, a male can fight an adversary to death only in order to be the leader of a small flock of 3-8 female deer.
About meanings in different cultures of the world
How are deer tattoos deciphered? The value of such a pattern may also depend on the country where the sketch is printed. What do deer tattoos mean in different countries of the world?
- In Celts, deer means longevity.
- Norse mythology believes that the deer is the messenger of God on earth. Therefore, such drawings on the body leave a special imprint on a person: it should serve humanity.
- In China, a deer tattoo can bring wealth and good fortune. A white deer symbolizes good health, a clear mind and a long life.
- In Indians, deer horns are compared to the tree of life. The deer itself is a symbol of the sun.
- Northern peoples are sure that deer horns symbolize the rays of the sun. And the deer itself is an indicator of vitality and energy.
- Europeans, however, stuff themselves with a deer pattern when they want to boast of their masculine power. It is also believed that such a pattern brings success to the male gender in women.
Value for men
Why are very frequent drawings on the body of men deer? This tattoo (the value of this drawing is valor) is able to give a guy strength, courage, self-confidence and his skills. In addition, it is believed that the deer on the tattoo (and to be more precise - deer horns) is also male sexuality, strength in bed. Guys with similar drawings very often have increased success with the fair sex.
It should also be noted that the meaning of the tattoo "deer with horns" is not at all the stigma of a man whom a woman has changed. On the contrary, the deer here symbolizes fidelity and perseverance to their choice.
Value for creative people
People in creative professions also love to see deer (tattoos) on their bodies. The significance in this case of this figure is grace, refinement, and even some timidity. Everything that characterizes creative people. These are natures with a refined inner world and a special attitude. Representatives of art, like deer, can be considered special messengers of the gods on earth, because they are called to bring beauty to the masses.
Hipster deer
Separately, I also want to consider the meaning of the tattoo "deer in the triangle." Often such drawings can be found on the bodies of young people. It should be noted that the profile or portrait image of this animal is often inflicted on itself by hipsters - representatives of a special subculture. This figure in this case should be the hallmark of a certain group of people.
Places for drawing a tattoo "deer"
I’d also like to say a few words about where it is best to apply such a tattoo. So, it can be any place - arm, leg, back, torso. The pattern on the chest looks very beautiful when the horns of the beast are directed to the shoulders. For men, such a tattoo gives masculinity, making the top of the torso wider, massive. The “deer” pattern on the neck or lower leg also looks good.
