One of the most sought after tattoo design is the incorporation of feathers. You may wonder why people choose to ink feather tattoos on their bodies. Colorful and bold, or simple and symbolic, feather tattoos have rich history and significance.

A single fallen feather tattoo may be symbolic of loss, birth, and even luck, but before you pick a feather is also important to know to which bird the feather belongs. Native Americans believe the owls and their feathers offer protection against evil spirits. The owls are also symbolic of intelligence and mystery. In Christianity teachings, the colorful peacock represents holiness, and at times, a touch of vanity. In Greek mythology, a feather from a Phoenix is said to promise eternal life.
