The powerful and beautiful meaning of tree tattoos

Some of the most beautiful and meaningful tattoos are inspired by nature – after all, the Mother Earth is so rich in symbols and meanings. As we look into the symbolism of natural elements, we will find that trees are one of the greatest things that connect all of mankind, so it’s no surprise that they are a very popular tattoo choice among both men and women. Trees are a universal symbol found in the myths and sacred writings of all peoples. From healing to protection, trees have played a large role in our history. As a tattoo, the tree is therefore very rich in meanings:

in ancient traditions all over the world, the tree is a symbol of life itself ( The Tree of Life)
trees are considered representative of wisdom (The Tree of Knowledge in the Garden of Eden in the Bible) , power and prosperity
they are the perfect examples of how to live, grow, transition, change ( a tree is a great example of the cycle of life )
they are associated with physical and spiritual nourishment, union and fertility, transformation and liberation
trees are the home for supernatural powers, pillar of the sky, and core of the universe
they represent the symbolic connection between the different levels of existence (a connection of earth and heaven, of spiritual and physical realms)
trees are related to superlative forces such as courage, endurance or immortality and eternity
it can be seen as a symbol of masculinity due to its trunk, but also as a symbol of femininity due to its long branches and flowing leaves
with their long-winding roots, trees have come to represent strength and stability ( firm rootedness, being rooted to the spot)
a tree tattoo can symbolize protection – its shadow provides cover, camouflage and hiding places
