Pisces Tattoos

Pisces Tattoos

Pisces tattoo designs are quite flexible in that the universal symbol of this sun sign is two fish. These fish, called Ichtyes by the Greeks, are commonly represented in a yin yang style – each fish head followed by the other’s tail forming a circular shape. Besides fish, there are numerous other sea creatures that can be incorporated into Pisces tattoos to create a more personalized design: twin dolphins, whales, sharks, sea horses or mermaids for example. Pisces tattoos commonly include this zodiac’s glyph symbol. Mirroring the double fish pattern, the Pisces glyph has an "H" shape in which the two vertical lines bend toward each other in the middle while bowing out at the tops and bottoms. The simplicity of this symbol lends itself to limitless design possibilities. For example, women seeking more feminine Pisces tattoos may choose designs featuring roses intertwined with the glyph while men may prefer snakes slithering up the glyph. The Pisces zodiac is a water sign that reveals a dreamy, gentle, affectionate, compassionate and deep nature. However, Pisces individuals are noted as having dual, or split, personalities: silent then highly talkative, happy then very unhappy, lazy then highly motivated. If this sounds like you then go ahead and get the design inked.

Here’s some rather decent nice looking samples of pisces tattoos with a couple of nearly identical little fish who are swimming in a circle as if chasing each others tales. As in the never ending cycle of life and death which is what they represent of course. They also say that a person who is born under the pisces sign is imaginative and sensitive. Compassionate and kind. Selfless and unworldly and intuitive and sympathetic. Wow that’s a mouthful. And it seems to be a whole of things at once for any one person.

So if you are a pisces and you are interested in possibly getting your astrological sign as a tattoo there are many, many tattoos one can choose from. Some are exact representations of the whatever the sign is and some are simply artistic take offs on what they are suppose to be. In other words, ones drawn that may look different but mean the very same thing. So you see, not all pisces tattoos are created equal. They all do not have to be fish even though that is the first thing someone thinks of. A good artist will have two other objects acting exactly like the fish.
