Phoenix Tattoo Designs -The phoenix as a tattoo symbol is often associated with feminine qualities, each part of its body representing a specific virtue. Duty, goodness, kindness and reliability are some of the lesser known aspects of the phoenix. The flame images represent purification and transformation through fire and adversity.


 According to Chinese mythology, the phoenix is the symbol of grace and virtue and is second only in importance to the Dragon. It represents the union of yin and yang, and was a gentle creature associated with the Empress, who alone could wear its symbol. Only the Chinese Empress was allowed to wear the phoenix as a symbol. The Phoenix Tattoo Design is also as the symbolization of Rebirth. This seems to mean that those emerging from the fire and ashes end up with admirable qualities that represent being a new person.


For the phoenix itself, in the tattooing world, it is more associated with a representing a number of good qualities in a person, things like kindness, duty and being reliable, among others. When you want to know it in detail, you can search it online with tag phoenix tattoo designs.
