Tattoos depicting zodiac signs are still popular today, although this idea is not new. One of such plots for tattoos is Cancer. People born under this constellation adorn themselves, believing in the protection of stars.
Unlike other zodiac tattoos, this motive has a different meaning. However, first things first.
Description
Oddly enough, when talking about such a horoscope sign as Cancer, we often come across an image of a crab. With tattoos, things are the same. Sketches depicting crabs are as common as with crayfish. And the glyph in both cases is one, similar to two nines lying one on top of the other.
Different types of tattoos are common. Cancer or crab, drawn in a realistic style, often becomes the choice of the stronger sex. Often they choose an abstract image.
Decorated glyph is more popular with girls.
Application Places
The most common places: forearms, collarbones, back of the neck, backs of hands, feet, ankles, shoulder blades. In many respects, the choice of the place of application depends on whether the person wants to demonstrate the tattoo to others or considers this business to be personal and intimate.
Specialists claim that the cancer tattoo on the arm helps to establish home comfort. In this case, it is better to decorate the right hand with the image of cancer. Caused on the left, it is more likely to endow the owner with eternal discontent.
The neck is an equally popular spot for this tattoo. Cancer will help develop business acumen, bring success in business.
Energetics
In general, the energy of this symbol is very strong. This is a sign of water, which gives owners the willpower, the desire for success, self-organization. Remember this when choosing tattoos (sketches). Cancer is a strong sign, it can have a much greater impact on life than you planned.
For the same reason, do not choose too aggressive color combinations for this tattoo.
Women more often choose shades of turquoise and purple, while men prefer shades of blue, brown or plain black. You can mitigate the influence of the mark with white paint, especially since tattoos in this color are at the peak of popularity today.
In the struggle for life
There is another meaning to this tattoo. Cancer is not always a zodiac sign, for some this word is a symbol of a terrible disease. Often, people struggling with this disease portray themselves as symbols of the fight against cancer, ribbons or inscriptions. In addition, a tattoo is important for those who want to hide scars from operations. Some simply mask them under the picture.
And some are humorous and even emphasize their own peculiarity, choosing sketches with lacing or rivets, as if tightening the edges of the wound. Women who defeated mastopathy resort to the tattoo, decorating the breasts altered by the operation with luxurious tattooed underwear or other patterned tattoos.
Cancer or a decorated Cancer inscription often flaunts those who have already successfully defeated the disease or are a volunteer of some program aimed at helping cancer patients.
