Beauty and symbolism tend to be the primary reasons that most people decide to get a tattoo.The eyes have always held a fascination with many and they are favorite with many.It’s been said the eye is the window to the soul, which may explain why the symbolic meaning of eyes tends to be of a spiritual nature.There are a few well know “eyes” that are often the subjects for eye tattoos.In Christianity the Eye of God represents the omni – present spirit of God peering into the soul of the faithful – ever watchful over those who serve.In Egypt is the Eye of Horus, a symbol of protection and life.The third eye is depicted on the forehead of Shiva, and is symbolic of the inner eye that sees all things within a cosmic perspective. In dreaming the meaning of eyes indicates an opening into a new dimension. This is symbolic of your vision clearing and focusing in on a new direction.The symbolic meaning of eyes also carry a message of prophesy – literally seeing “a vision of the future.”
So, eyes can mean:focus, clarity, vision, prophesy, omnipresence, perception, intelligence.
Eye tattoos, by their design can fit just about anywhere and the meaning of eyes tattoos is often based on how the tattoo itself is designed and situated.
