If you have decided the Lotus Flower tattoo design is for you, then you have chosen well because the Lotus flower is a flower of true beauty, as beautiful as an Orchid and as flawless as a Rose, the Lotus flower has often been referred to as the perfect flower.
The lotus flower tattoo design is usually associated with women, but men have also included the Lotus flower in their design because of its symbolism and the brilliant array of colors. I think the best way to wear a lotus flower design is as a full arm tattoo design, and how about even more color by adding Koi fish, butterflies or fairies.
The Lotus flower has a long mythological history in Egypt and India. According to Egyptian mythology the first gods appeared at the opening of the very first Lotus flower. The lotus flower in India tells a different story, a story of a journey from darkness to light.
The Lotus flower begins life at the bottom of the pond, in the cold, dark, murky water, and over time it eventually rises to the top in all its glory. A well-liked explanation of the symbolism of the Lotus flower is that of the struggles we face in life, and also you may start life in the most unpleasant conditions, or you may go through a bad patch in your life, like a divorce, loss of a loved one, etc, but like the Lotus flower you too can rise above the adversity into the light.
In Buddhism, the struggle of the Lotus flower is seen more as a journey of spiritual growth. The struggle of the seed stating out in the mud and the murky depths and its struggle to the surface, is seen as the fight to rise above the material world and cast off the shackles of desire, and reach the state of Nirvana as the Lotus flower does in bloom.
