Printable angel tattoo designs are ranked third under tribal and butterfly tattoo designs due to their spiritual, religious and protective meanings.
Meaning
A typically benevolent celestial being that acts as an intermediary between heaven and earth, especially in Christianity, Judaism, Islam, and Zoroastrianism.
Angel tattoos symbolize love, peace, protection, faith, a loved one, spirituality, a connection with a higher self, selflessness, freedom, the struggle between good and evil, and a relationship with God
Why women get them
For women an angel tattoo can symbolize purity, divinity, patience, self-confidence, beauty, protection, and the belief in angels.
A growing number of women are getting angel wings on their backs.
Why men get them
For men angel tattoos can symbolize a love for someone, protection and to symbolize the struggle between their good and evil nature.
Types of designs
Guardian Angels: Protectors of humanity, children, especially in times of trouble.
Cherubs: Symbolize the messengers of love. These tattoos usually have the name of someone special. Just remember that relationships can end if you are thinking of getting your significant other’s name tattooed on you and that is the number one reason people regret getting tattoos.
Fallen Angels: Popular with bikers, Goths, and those who study dark arts.
Archangels: Represent Gods angels and are usually inked on those who are religious.
A growing trend is to combine designs, like tribal angel wing tattoo designs.
Just remember that if you are considering getting an angel tattoo, take your time to find the design that defines who you are and what you believe.
