Butterfly tattoo meaning
Butterflies are deep and powerful representations of life. Many cultures associate the butterfly with our souls. The Christian religion sees the butterfly as a symbol of resurrection. Around the world, people view the butterfly as representing endurance, change, hope, and life. There is no doubt the butterfly has significant meanings to us, so why not having a tattoo?
But, a common association with the butterfly is the transformation. Remember that butterflies start their lives as a caterpillar and, during the time, they evolve into beautiful and strong creatures. If you want to express your transformation through a tattoo, a small and delicate butterfly is the right choice.
Positioning and Style
There’s no suggested positioning to get it because it can perfectly fit every place. The most common choice is behind the shoulder, but you can also consider different positionings and styles like finger tattoos or a stick and poke version of it.
The most popular places for a butterfly tattoo is on the chest, neck, lower back, or shoulder. You may want to personalize your small tattoos in some way that uniquely represents you. This way you can make sure it does not match another tattoo on someone else.
