Tattoos Of Angels And Baby Angels

By Darren Hartley


The Jewish, Christian and Islamic faiths are among the religions where tattoos of angels are extremely sacred, symbolic and vital. While angels, in general, are considered messengers of God, guardian angels are looked upon as protectors from the devil. The Greek word for angelic translates to messenger.

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.

It is ordinary to see floating angels as part of the design for tattoos of angels because angels are seen as caring individuals. The floating imagery is a reiteration of their protecting nature. Angel wings are a variation of the angelic tattoo designs that is very common among tattoo lovers.

Baby angel tattoos are associated with perfect beauty. The symbolic meaning of these designs range from protection from evil, Christianity to spirituality. Persons choosing these designs exemplify a 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.

Two angels in the design of baby angel tattoos can represent the bonding of the siblings for parents with two children. With a halo over their heads, they may be pictured as facing each other, holding hands or praying together. As a provider of protection and guidance, an adult angel hovering over the baby angels may be included in the design.
