Elephant Tattoo Designs

These animals are worshipped in India. For them, elephants represent divinity and kindness of spirit. Ganesh, an Indian God is even depicted as having the head of an elephant. During Hindu rituals, elephants pose as prominent parts of the occasion. They are usually bathed and anointed in special oils as part of the ritual.

Unlike most tattoo designs, the elephant's color is not always subject to the person's choosing. The animal's natural color is the one majorly used by tattoo artist. An albino elephant also holds great meaning for those who use it. For starters, it is a symbol for the Gods and is thought to be the most sacred of all elephants. Those who have seen it are considered to be lucky with the gods in their favor.

Aside from their religious connotations, a tattoo enthusiast may also choose an elephant tattoo in reference to the animal's characteristics. For example, when an elephant dies, other elephants will remain beside the body for a few days as though in mourning. For some, this could be a representation of loyalty. Longevity and fidelity are also other characteristics associated with the elephant that may be used by tattoo enthusiasts when looking for the next best ink.
