Lotus flower tattoos generally represent the growing process of the flower itself. The bottom of a pond is not generally one of the more pleasant thoughts that a person has, knowing that it is usually muddy. This is where the lotus flower begins to grow.
Here is what we do know about the growing process of the lotus flower, it starts at the bottom of still water and appears as a bud on a vine. As the vine grows out of the water, the bud stays towards the water until it reaches the surface. Once it gets to this point then it will turn to face upwards, in the direction of the sun. The vine will continue to grow in length and when it has grown long enough that the bud is outside of the water completely the bud will bloom. A lot of symbolism comes from the way that this flower comes to life. Seeing a beautiful flower come to life after starting in the bottom of murky dark waters is a truly remarkable thing. It is like it is breaking out of its shell as it comes out of the dark waters that confined it.
There are other meanings that can be taken from this as well; birth, power and strength, new beginnings are all some ways to interpret this life cycle. No matter which meaning you have for it, it is a beautiful flower to choose as a tattoo.
The lotus flower tattoo will have a very special meaning to you alone, as well as being a gorgeous work of art to look at. Once you find a tattoo artist that can get the true beauty and detail that is reflective of the lotus flower; it will most definitely be a treasure that you have on your skin. Lotus flower tattoos are quite often full of many different colors just as they would in real life.
Looking for that special tattoo that will show lots of meaning as well as beauty is a great reason to choose the lotus flower tattoo. It will be something that others will rave about and be a topic of discussion with many that look at it in admiration. Not only that you will love that it is something to be proud to show off.
