Lotus Tattoo Designs

Lotus Tattoo Designs
The lotus is very common in Eastern cultures. Like the rose is in America, the lotus is a popular flower choice in Asia, Egypt, India, and other Eastern countries. In fact, the popularity of the lotus compares to that of the rose.Lotus tattoos can be quite simple; however, they may also feature intricate designs. One interesting idea would be to depict the seven chakras of the practice of Kundalini. Each chakra is associated with one of five elements (including space), and either consciousness or enlightenment. Each chakra shows a lotus flower with its own color, and in a different state bloom. For example, the Muladhara chakra has only four petals unfolded, and is a crimson shade; while the Visuddha has 16 petals and is a purple hue. These flowers can be placed in their corresponding areas, for instance; the Manipur chakra may be placed on the lower abdomen.
