By Darren Hartley


Tattoos of angels are extremely sacred, symbolic and vital in many religions, including the Jewish, Christian and Islamic faith. Angels, in general, are considered messengers oF God and guardian angels, in particular, are looked upon as protectors from the devil. The word angelic is derived from its Greek origin meaning messenger.

Sacred tattoos of angels take on different meanings when inked on men and women. On women, they symbolize harmony and serenity from within while on men, they represent a link to the higher self. Angelic tattoo designs are many and varied but the more popular ones include angels in stunning winged form, hovering, sitting on a cloud or near a cloud, holding a harp or a trumpet.

Because angels are seen as caring individuals, they are most often depicted as floating images in the design for tattoo of angels. This imagery is a validation of their very protective nature. Very commonly picked by tattoo lovers is a variation on the angelic tattoo designs in the form of angel wings.

Other than being associated with perfect beauty, baby angel tattoos carry symbolic meanings that range from protection from evil, Christianity to spiritually. One of the primary reasons that people choose these designs is their expression of their need to be close to God.

Parents can proclaim their unconditional love to their children in the form of baby angel tattoos. By including a self-portrait of their child in the image of an angel in the design, they acknowledge their receipt of an irreplaceable blessing from God. The inclusion of the name, the hand or foot prints of the child in the design is a variation to the design that is gaining popularity among parents.

Parents with two children can have them portrayed as two angels in baby angel tattoos. The bonding of the siblings can be represented with the two angels facing each other, holding hands or praying together, with a halo over their heads. By including an adult angel as a provider of protection and guidance in the design, the parents are signifying their resolve to provide these things to their children through the entirety of their lives.
