tribal dragon back girls tattoo
Dragons have several meanings and they change from country to country. In the western culture they are known to be fearsome and strong. One more reason for the respect they are getting.
The Eastern culture embraced them as them as their royal symbol and protectors. Dragons are also related (by Eastern mythology) to: Heaven, Fortune, Friendship, Love and more.
The word "Dragon" (from Greek) refers to the eyes of the dragon, which were sparky and hypnotic. The designs of the dragon could have different colors, which are sometimes added to enrich the traditional way of the tribal - black ink design. Also, the number of toes is different - depends on the country, Chinese dragons have 5 toes, Japanese dragons have 3. Dragons became major players in mythology of both cultures - eastern and western.
Clearly, tribal dragon tattoos have many meanings hidden in the design. You should especially note the eyes when you do your search, they could mean a lot.
