Outstanding Tree Tattoo Designs

Tree tattoos have significant symbolic meaning depending on the type of tattoo depicted. The tree tattoo in the picture is a representation of the mighty oak. It symbolizes strength and courage. The ancient Romans thought oak trees attracted lightening and thereby connected the oak tree to the sky god, Jupiter and his wife, Juno, the goddess of marriage.

Trees have been mentioned in myths and revered in many religions. They symbolize life and the cycle of life with the withering of leaves in the winter and the rejuvenation of flowers and leaves in the Spring. In Celtic tradition it is said that trees were the ancestors of mankind, had spirits and were living beings.
