Meaning of the tribal tattoos


Tribal tattoo is a spiritual event and is associated with feelings. It is linked to pain persistence and the source of life to lose blood. This trio made sure that tattooing was no longer seen as art, but led people to communicate with spiritual beings, gods and magical powers.


Since it was thought that the body and mind are united, it was believed that the tattoo on the body part accompanied them in both worlds, the real world and the spiritual world. Some people even believed that one would only be handed over to the spiritual world with a lot of tattoos. They also believe that some tattoo designs they choose will give them an advantage when they go over to the spiritual world.


In many old dates skin incisions were also seen next to the tattoos and the skin was colored with washable colors. This tradition lasted until the beginning of today's civilization but gradually lost its popularity.


In the original, each tribe, each family, had its own tattoo design or scar so that distant relatives could be recognized. Nowadays it is a little different but in the end you get the same thing so that, some have the mascots of the favorite team tattooed or soldiers the coat of arms of the troop or of the gang they are united with so that at the end you can see where one belongs. Tattoos are also there for the comradeship, the brotherhood and to show which group you belong to and that the others respect and appreciate.



In the ancient times, tattoos were also made for the bride and groom when they got married, which had the same value as the wedding ring today. It was also believed that these tattoos help couples find each other more easily in the spiritual world. Like wedding rings today, the tattoos symbolized unity and productivity.


In the old days the boys had to get tattoos at a certain age to prove their manhood. The youngest who got tattooed and endured the pain were allowed to take their place next to the adults and proved that they can get married and support a family. The same does not apply to women, because women suffer at birth and prove themselves there, so they are entitled to take their place among the adults. The boys or men who cannot endure the painful and bloody ritual will be mocked, disrespected, doomed and excluded from the tribe.


Today it seems to be no different young men who have reached the age of 18 get tattoos to prove themselves and to show the family and the environment that they can make their own decisions that they are adults.
