Skull Tattoos

Skull Tattoos
The skull tattoos carry many different meanings to them. It takes but a very minor change in any image of a skull to change its meaning. In most cases the skull stands for bones which last longer than anything in the body and as such stands for the ultimate truth. But then you put a rose with one and it has a different meaning. Put a candle with a skull and it has yet another different meaning. From the research I did there seemed to be no end to how the meaning could be altered quite easily.
I personally like skull tattoos and I think that is way most people get them. This one is kind of a scary one and it seems to have some sort of gargoyles or something like that painted around the outside of it. But no matter, it’s still a pretty scary tattoo. Skulls like this are meant for the single purpose of intimidation. They are to make others think its wearer is a tough guy, of that I am sure. So if you are going to wear on like this you should at least be confident that you can back up what it may imply.

Skull Tattoos
Obviously there are many different types and styles of skull tattoos out there for one to choose from. You have the cool ones, the funny ones, the nasty ones, the wicked ones and many others in between. This one I would have to say is one of the wicked ones. This tattoo looks to me like it is suppose to be some sort of Nazi skull and if that is so, then it is meant to stand for hate. There is no doubt about that. At the very least the star on the helmet this skull is wearing seems to symbolize some sort of military or authoritarian figure which in either case can’t mean anything good.
Skull tattoos have been around for a long time and have been made to symbolize many things, but in most cases it has something to do with a man’s mortality. Meaning death of course. For one person it might mean they are not afraid of death while for another it might be a warning that if you mess with me you might be messing with death. In either case, wearing big bad scary looking skull tattoos like this certainly make a statement. And that statement is mostly, stay away from me.
