Is it really that tattoos have been around everywhere these days only? Because believe it or not, they’ve been around forever—so how did they become so prevalent? Why the unforeseen resurgence? Going back to the Neolithic era and indigenous tribes, tattooing was formerly practiced during the religious ceremonies and as a rite of passage. It was not until Christianity, which regarded tattoos to be part of the Wiccan faith, that they acquired an “unfavorable” status. Today, gradually, social acceptance has eased the tattooing industry to grow even larger. Right from the genius of today’s tattooists, to the improvisation in the ink and the tools that make their artwork possible, the sky is the limit for souls who want their bodies to be a canvas.
MEANING
This sun sign is governed by Uranus, the planet that oversees creative innovation, technical bending and impromptu events. Uranus excellently mimics Aquarius’s idiosyncrasies, complementing their peculiar nature. Aquarians are profound thinkers, and in the process, they tend to neglect their immediate surroundings. Hence, they are imminent in obtaining a reputation for being distant and detached.
Aquarius is a zodiac that symbolizes water, the mystical healer who bestows water or life, on earth. But don’t be misled by the word “aqua,” Aquarius is, in fact, the last air sign of the zodiac. This makes Aquarius the most altruistic astrological sign. These are revolutionary in their thinking and denotes sovereignty. Aligned to social progression, they aspire to change the world through their radical thoughts.
This visionary sign always strives towards betterment. Although, beware! because like it or not, they are quick into dragging people into their matters. Working towards perfection is a collaborative effort for Aquarians.
DESIGNS
Despite being an air sign, the oceanic indentations are principally used instead. Seekers of complexity can combine both the wind and the waves in your design. Diligent participants of their horoscopes also employ the sign’s planetary ruler, which is Uranus. The Ganymede constellation is a robust essence that can be featured. Aquarius is the sign which is expressed by the ‘water bearer’ or often by an urn overflowing with water. One can explore unless they are certain about what they want on their skin, for it’s a matter of eternity. For a craftier scheme, you can ask the tattoo artist to incorporate all the planets that directly influence your zodiac. In case one who is personally an astrology enthusiast one can craft their own Aquarius tattoo so that not only it remains unique but significant too. If minimalism is your thing, you may just get the word ‘Aquarius’ imprinted in classic fonts.
IDEAS

Some people also show interest in an Aquarius constellation tattoo. The best tattoo depends on its placement and dimension. Not to forget, the style and ink color is fairly important too.
