For all those who thought all tattoo designs are unisex, get your facts straight. Cherry blossom tattoos are the one which is exclusively feminine. It is very popular among women. Hey but all you girls out there don't get blossom ink on a girl's night out or just because all you teens decide to have a one. It is observed that people who get tattoos just like that without any knowledge of what a particular design means regret it later.
Cherry blossom tattoos have a deeper meaning than just symbolizing female bonding. It represents female beauty and sexuality!
Many people believe that a blossom is in Chinese culture however most of them argue that it belongs to Japanese culture. We even get Japanese blossom scents; who has ever heard of Chinese blossom perfume? The truth is cherry blossom exists in both cultures and has different meanings in both of these cultures. However both can be related to female beauty and in tattoo culture just a blossom tattoo design generally represents beauty and sexuality.
So before you go for your tattoo design lets see what they mean in both these cultures. That way even you will be sure of what you want your cherry blossom to represent.
In Japanese culture blossom means life. It identifies a person's life with that of cherry tree. A cherry starts growing and blooms to its fullest for a very short time and then it fades. This indicates life is too short and one will face all seasons from spring to fall. It closely relates to the beauty of women which starts blooming and looks beautiful but then the fade is inevitable. In Chinese culture blossom means power. And the power of a female is her beauty and sexuality. In Chinese the blossom also means love.
A falling cherry again means different and is not looked upon as a good thing. So you surely don't want that as your tattoo design.
So now that you know what cherry blossom represents, you can now go ahead and have one of the best designs to say what you feel,other designs,,,
