Tatoo Anchor: meaning and sketches for girls and men

Even the most uninitiated person knows that any tattoo has an individual meaning, so when choosing a sketch, experienced masters advise to do it very carefully. Previously, a tattoo in the form of an anchor was decorated exclusively by men related to the world. Today, sketches of anchor tattoos are chosen not only by representatives of the strong half, but also by fragile girls.

The main value:

• Attachment;
• Faith;
• Sadness.

This is the meaning put into the image by the sailors, who expressed affection for the sea, faith in a speedy return home and longing for loved ones. If you plunge into romance, then the anchor, together with the name of the second half, means endless love and devotion to the partner. From a Christian point of view, such an image symbolizes faith in God – in this case, the upper part of the tattoo is depicted in the form of a cross. Also, a tattoo in the form of an anchor can be interpreted as a symbol of stability-despite the changing events, a person stands confidently on the ground and is confident in his own future.

Choosing a place on the body.

An anchor tattoo is attractive because it can be applied to any part of the body. Many people make an anchor tattoo on their arm. For example, model Kate Moss made an image of an anchor on her right forearm and explained the choice by the habit of becoming attached to people. And no less popular girl Kelly Osbourne, the daughter of the famous rocker Ozzy Osbourne, made a similar tattoo with her mother's name – this is how she expressed her boundless love and affection for the house.

The size of the image can be any-from a three-dimensional drawing on the arm, hip, shin, to a tiny image on the eyelids or earlobe. Women and men prefer to make such a tattoo-amulet and complement the drawing with various elements:

• rose,
lily, with a dagger, with a massive chain, hearts, bows.

As a rule, drawings on the body are made in color and the choice of tone also matters. Girls who want to express their emotional state choose cold tones if they are striving for peace and tranquility, or warm ones that express sociability, thirst for new adventures.

Men, on the contrary, show responsibility with such a tattoo, the ability to find the right solution in any situation. The image is also given a mystical meaning and is done to protect itself from various adversities, dangerous life situations. Anyway, the symbol of such a tattoo can be very deep, so it is better to choose a sketch under the guidance of an experienced master.
