Have you ever thought how we use God’s beautiful gift of flowers in so many ways? Who doesn’t love a vase full of fresh cut flowers from the garden setting on the kitchen table? Flowers with meaning tattoos are artistically displayed, on breasts, sides, backs, wrists and legs.
We use flowers types for weddings, whether in the spring, summer, fall or winter. Flowers for weddings in December incorporate ivy or flocked evergreen as well as your favorite flower.
Flowers names for kids are quite often used. I myself used Jasmine for my daughter’s name back in 1980 way before it was popular.
Unfortunately, the opposite side of birth is death, and we choose flowers for funeral meaning and the loved one that passed away.
This Easter Sunday many white stargazer lilies or calla lilies will be displayed in churches everywhere.
John 19:30 “When he had received the drink, Jesus said, “it is finished.” With that, he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.”
Don’t lose heart, that is NOT the end of the story, Jesus died for us, however, was resurrected on the 3rd day and ascended to heaven to be seated on the right side of our father.
Flowers with Meaning Tattoos
When thinking of flowers with mean tattoos, for many the image
of a women with a rose tattooed on her somewhere comes to mind. Tattoos
themselves, can be small or large, black/grey shading or colorful ink. It is
all in the discretion of the man or women purchasing the tattoo and of course,
the tattoo itself plays a big part in the deciding factor. When the Germans
were tattooing identification numbers on the Jews in the concentration camps it
doubtfully they were real concerned of the beauty of the tattoo, moreover, the
controlling factor of the Jews that were imprisoned. When sailors were getting
tattoos of their ships, girlfriend/wife, snakes, knives or anchors, they were
primarily grey scale with a tad of color and much more cartoonish than they
tattoos the tattoo artists are artistically doing today. Even a flower, such a
rose, for a sailor, might be flat lacking the depth and shading.
The definition of a tattoo according to Wikipedia is, “A tattoo is a form of body modification,
made by inserting indelible ink into the dermis layer of the skin to change the
pigment. The first written reference to the word, "tattoo" (or Samoan
"Tatau") appears in the journal of Joseph Banks, the naturalist
aboard Captain Cook's ship the HMS Endeavour.”
Flowers with meaning tattoos can be a variety of flowers.
Roses, Jasmine, Cherry Blossom, Hibiscus, Sunflower, Lily or any flower that
represents the person you are.
There is no rule about tattooing it can be a single flower,
group of flowers or a flower entwined with vines. Flower tattoos are OK for men
too. Many times men will get a tribal tattoo and incorporate a floral design.
It is also common practice to have a flower and a cross or dagger design.
Up the Side Tattoo:
With this flowers and meaning tattoos, it is a large tattoo
going from breast to hip. For the young woman it means, “I got the roses for
their beauty and their strength. It’s a reminder that I’m a strong and
beautiful Christian woman. There is a verse from Romans intertwined in the
vines. The verse talks about not being quick to anger. I use to have a temper
and was quick to anger the verse reminds me to keep my self in control and not
to let my anger control me.”
Tattoos from Wild Streak
Flowers with meaning tattoos, according to this middle-aged
woman; “I
got my tattoos when I was 30 years old. I was definitely old enough to make
that decision and hopefully knew what I was doing. I found out that even as an
adult you don’t always make wise decisions. My husband and I went thru a bit of
a wild streak and I ended up with 5 tattoos in 2 years. I now go to church but
they are ok with the artwork. I don’t regret the tattoos however, I would have
made them smaller and I would have picked things that had meaning to me instead
of what looked good at the time. My daughters were at least 20 and wanted to
get tattoos. I didn't tell them it was a bad idea. I told them that if they
were going to get them to at least make them small, make sure that the tattoo
had some significant meaning to them, and because they didn't no what there
careers were going to be to place the tattoos in places that clothing could
cover them if they needed to dress more modest. I am now 16 years older and if
I were to do anything different it would be the advice that I gave my
daughters”
Shoulder Tattoo
Flowers with meaning tattoos, according to this woman; “It
really doesn’t mean anything. I wanted a tattoo, and thought it was pretty and
would be neat to have my name in the ribbon. I wished I would have had the boys
names added on.”
Lower Back Tattoo
Flowers with meaning tattoos for this young woman, who
happens to be the author’s daughter; "For me, getting a tattoo was
about honoring my name, family, and becoming an adult. I have always loved
my unique name. Some how my mom knew at birth that it would suit me perfectly
throughout my life. I am fortunate enough to have an artist for a brother, who
at the time was also doing tattoo art. So the minute I turned 18 (my mom said
no ink before then) we got to it! I love my tattoo and will cherish it, my
family, and my name forever."
According to the gardenguides.com Jasmine means, “Use
Jasmine as a religious offering or altar decoration. It is the symbol of divine
hope in the Hindu religion. The Balinese people plant jasmine in their public
and private temples. Also, the Siwaratrikalpa, an ancient Javanese text, states
that jasmine should be used as an offering to Ciwa, the native Javanese name
for God. A common girl's name, it comes from ancient Persian and means, "gift
from God."”
