Skull Tattoos – Enter Into Darkness

Skull tattoos are symbolic of dark things. In most cases it has to do with death, as you'll see by clicking on these tattoo links. Yet, a skull tattoo can mean something lighter, such as truth. Many times the tattoo only falls under your own interpretation.

A skeleton or skull on a tattoo can be seen as underlying truth. This is born from the belief that no matter who we are as people on the outside, our skeletons and skulls, are all the same. Because skulls and skeletons are a part of the body that lasts longer than others, a tattoo bearing them can then be seen as enduring truth.

Often on a tattoo when the skull has a candle residing inside it, the tattoo can mean black magic. When the candle is taken out of the skull and replaced with a book, the tattoo can take on a lighter meaning once again, as the tattoo then can symbolize science or history. Again, if you click through the links here, you'll see the skull symbolism of these tattoos is all subject to your interpretation.

Yet the interpretation we must often have when looking at a tattoo bearing a skull is of the grim reaper. Often the skull or skeleton is pictured on the tattoo along with a sickle or scythe, and it is most often seen then as a grim reaper tattoo, an idea born from medieval times and renaissance art.

With a skull and crossbones tattoo, it is warning impending danger. The skull and crossbones tattoo warns people to stay away or fear what is coming. These tattoos have often been favored by the wrong side of the law. Which side of the law is wrong is again open to your interpretation, just as the meanings of the skulls you will see in these tattoo links.
