Shooting Star Tattoos
Remember the beginning to that song, “Catch a falling star, and put it in your pocket, never let it fade away…”? Remember the classic, “When you wish upon a star…”? There is something so magical and so pure about stars—shooting stars especially—like they are the answers to your wishes and dreams. Perhaps that’s why Shooting Star Tattoos are one of the most popular tattoos designs today—especially when ink-eager females are concerned.
That iconic image of the Shooting Star rings in the hearts of many—even in Shoot Star Tattoos—because it’s meaning is powerful and fulfilling to our wishes and aspirations. Shooting Star Tattoos promise that the wishes, hopes, and dreams of those with them inked on will come true.
On a more realistic level, Shooting Star Tattoos signify that the people with them inked onto their skin have the determination and the drive to make their dreams come true—and that they never discount the help of the good luck charm…especially if it’s in the form of a star tattoo. There is no dream too big, too far away, or too unbelievable that can’t come true when you have the luck of Shooting Star Tattoos backing you up—even if only the symbolic level.
Plus, there are literally hundreds of different variations of Shooting Star Tattoos to choose from. Shooting Star Tattoos and their designs and aesthetics can range from the subtle type to having an absolutely extravagant look.
Matching the basic concept shared by most star tattoo designs, Shooting Star Tattoos typically have one major star in their designs. This main star is larger than all the other stars in most Shooting Star Tattoos (if there even are any other stars) and either showcases the five pronged version of a star or has more puff-shaped star shape. It is typically inked in with vibrant hues and it is followed by either a streak or many little mini stars behind it so showcase the rapid movement of the sky the sky—its shooting the celestial landscape.
This is where people can get really creative with Shooting Star Tattoos. There have been Shooting Star Tattoos that are placed on that tattoo owner’s body so that the streak of stars follows the skin on the side of the torso, the curvature of the neck. Instead of a line of stars, people have also had images like a streak of musical notes or swirled lines to showcase the movement of the main star in Shooting Star Tattoos as well.
What is important is to have a Shooting Star Tattoos design that is made to fit you our own personality, your character, and your own beliefs. Although Shooting Star Tattoos are extremely popular for women—simply because they do so well with accentuating the female body—men can also get Shooting Star Tattoos inked on their skin too. Shooting Star Tattoos on men tend to be a little bit darker in hue—rather than the vibrant purples and oranges or even pinks of females’ designs—and often incorporate shades and are designed on a much larger scale. Male Shooting Star Tattoos are also placed on different areas of the body than they are on females. Many male Shooting Star Tattoos also incorporate the design of the Nautical Star.
