Butterfly Tattoos: Meaning and Traditional Designs

What butterfly tattoos mean (rebirth, transformation, hope) and the classic, traditional and floral butterfly designs from a traditional shop.

Does it seem like everyone is getting butterfly tattoos this year? If your social media feed is swamped with beautiful butterflies tattoos and you’re asking yourself ‘What gives?’
There are a few reasons that may explain the recent trend and resurgence in the ever popular Butterfly Tattoo.

What butterfly tattoos mean

Butterflies have been a popular tattoo motif for many many years. Butterfly tattoos are symbolic of spiritual rebirth, transformation, hope and change. And that is only scratching the surface.
They are beautiful and versatile. They can also be very feminine making them a classic choice with females in particular. Why the sudden boost though?
Simple: people want to wear hope, and nothing says it like a butterfly.

Butterflies across cultures

Different cultures associate butterflies with different things. The Christian religion views the butterfly as a symbol of resurrection.

Why butterflies are trending

And so this Fall, in particular, we saw the butterfly tattoo explode! And I’m not surprised in the least. It’s human nature, we are expressive beings. We express what we feel, think and live in a variety of ways. Tattoos have always been a vehicle for this kind of expression. It is also in our nature to document. We log and keep account of events, good and bad. Tattoos have always served well in this respect as well.
Needless to say that whatever the reasons for the sudden spike in butterfly tattoos we’re certainly not complaining. The butterfly is a classic in any tattoo shop and, in my opinion, will always continue to be.
