Great Dragon Tattoo

Great Dragon Tattoo
Dragon tattoos symbolize perceived as powerful, protective, and fearsome, and they were valued for their warlike qualities. They were often protectors of a treasure, and from this they can be symbolic of a most valiant defender. They were also sometimes terrorizes of the people, symbols of satanic evil. One of the highest achievements of a hero in medieval legend was the slaying of a dragon, as in the story of St. George, where the victory over the dragon, was a symbolic victory of Christianity. Thus the dragon as a heraldic charge may signify the faith, strength and selfless courage needed to battle the overwhelmingly powerful, and evil dragon.

A dragon tattoo symbolizes many different things depending on the culture. For the most part it is a symbol of power, courage, strength, or strong will. A dragon tattoo can symbolize a couple of meanings depending on the type of dragon. In medieval times dragons were said to be used by kings to guard sacred treasures in caves. Only the one who slayed the dragon could obtain the treasures he protected. Dragons were said to be so protective of the treasures that even the king could not reclaim his treasure unless he slayed the dragon.

In Japanese culture the dragon is said to be a symbol of supernatural powers. With incredible strength and a hidden wisdom. It was said the only way to journey past a dragon was to answer its riddles. The dragon tattoo means you were old enough to get it but not old enough to understand the true meaning. The dragon itself is a free and fearless being. So the tattooing of it represent your self of being free and fearless with life choices.
