Zodiac Sign Tattoos: Design Ideas for Each of the 12 Signs
German outlet Bunte has compiled tattoo ideas for every zodiac sign, ranging from minimalist constellation drawings to larger designs featuring symbols and animals.
The German magazine Bunte has put together a set of tattoo ideas for the zodiac signs. It describes how astrological signs can be shown on the skin and suggests a fitting design for each of the 12 signs. The piece was also published on the Latvian portal NRA, in its lifestyle section.
Types of design
Zodiac tattoos can take the form of constellations, star patterns or symbols. Signs are often drawn with lines and stars, which makes them look delicate and minimalist. The traditional symbol of each sign can also be used. People who want a larger tattoo can pick a design that matches the theme of the sign, such as a sketch of two people for Gemini or a wave for Aquarius.
Suggestions by sign
For Aries, described as adventurous and energetic, a dynamic tattoo is suggested, combining the image of a ram with graphic elements. Taurus is offered a combination of a constellation and an animal motif. The tattoo for Gemini expresses creativity and versatility.
Cancer, which is linked to the water element, suits a watercolor style. Leo is advised to choose a design that radiates strength and dynamism while also showing warmth and loyalty. Virgo is described as intelligent and careful, and is the only feminine sign among the 12. For Libra, the symbol itself expresses balance and harmony.
For Scorpio, described as ambitious and fearless, an animal design fits. Sagittarius is recommended the classic bow and arrow motif. Capricorn's ruling planet is Saturn and its element is Earth; its constellation is fairly large. For Aquarius, a delicate constellation sketch is popular, while Pisces is suggested a fine drawing of fish, to which a watercolor effect can be applied.
