It is an ornament that one keeps all its life then, necessarily, it is better to find the perfect pattern before getting tattooed. Because between promises of love, declarations of friendship, musical passions and sports ... we often take risks by making the choice to have in the skin of people or things that we are not certain to love all his life. And if the right option, to avoid regret, was to bet on his astrological sign? Custom, cute, XXL or discreet: the opportunities are multiple!

How to represent an astrological sign?

Whether it is Taurus, Aquarius, Aries, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Pisces, Capricorn, Virgo, Cancer, Scorpio, Gemini or Libra the possibilities are numerous and fall into 3 categories:

  • The figurative design: a cute lion, a bull's head, a scorpion, a stylized scale ... Animal astrological signs lend themselves well to figurative representation. Obviously, if we are Virgo or Gemini it is a little more complicated.
  • The symbol: simple shapes and lines, the symbols of the signs of the zodiac are perfect for 2-dimensional representations. A little mysterious but not too enigmatic they are also a way to create a kind of clan thanks to a symbol easily identifiable by the members!
  • The constellation: the signs of the zodiac are linked to the passage of the Sun in the corresponding constellations. For each, there is a constellation: a set of stars that can be linked by imaginary lines to create any shape (more or less similar to the sign in question). The constellation option? She's very discreet! Whether put on a cloud of stars connected or not by lines one takes little risk on the final effect and the tattoo remains a little mysterious. Canon!

The "dot" a perfect tattoo style

And if the constellation option is so tempting, it's also because a particular tattoo type puts it in good value. Dotwork, like pointillism, is a technique of creating a pattern from points. A good idea if we put on the constellation and we choose to figure the imaginary lines with points. Subtle, minimalist and elegant dotwork ensures us a 100% stylish tattoo!
