Lower Back Tattoo
Lower back tattoos have been extremely popular since the late 1990’s, particularly among women. A well designed lower back tattoo should emphasize a woman’s curvature. While some lower back tattoos are small, others are more prominent, reaching out towards the hips. Though lower back tattoo designs are often hidden, they can make a very sensual statement when revealed. While the right design can look absolutely stunning, it can also have significant meaning behind it.
The Meaning Behind Lower Back Art
Though relatively new in modern cultures, lower back tattoos have been used throughout the world for many years and for various reasons. This area of the body is thought by some to contain hidden stored energy called “kundalini”. In the Sanskrit language, kundalini means “snake” or “serpent power,” and this energy is believed to lie like a serpent in the root chakra at the base of the spine. For this reason early designs often had serpent-like qualities, representing intense feminine power.
Modern Appeal
While lower back tattoo designs have changed gradually over time, some thought should still be given to the meaning behind a design, particularly if you are young. Young women tend to prefer designs that are playful and sexy, and that is fine; but giving the proper thought to the meaning behind a design will likely ensure that you continue to be happy with your selection throughout the years. Consider special symbols and the winding energy that is said to be stored in this area. People are naturally drawn to this area, and though on your back, you will always know it is there and will want to express yourself confidently.
You can find many lower back tattoo designs on the internet. Popular lower back tattoo designs include tribal, Celtic, butterfly, and flower art. The lotus flower in particular has special meaning in various cultures and religions. Hindus and Buddhists, for example, believe the lotus flower is a symbol for awakening to the spiritual reality of life. Buds, seed-pods and flowers, can be used to represent the past, present and future. Whatever you choose for your lower back tattoo, be sure to give it plenty of thought and express your unique feminine energy and spiritualism.
The lower back is also a great location for a combination of designs. You have to give some thought as to the placement of each type of design. A lower back tattoo with a “V” shape can be very stunning, and is a good option for combination artwork.
