<p>A Celtic cross tattoo design is a popular choice for the upper arm – a great spot in general to put a tattoo, as that location makes it easy to hide it and show it, as you wish.The Celtic cross is the standard Christian cross, but with a circle around the intersection. Intricate knotwork adorns the cross, making it both simple in its overall design, yet complex at the same time.</p> <p>
<p>Celtic knots work really well as a tattoo design or part of a tattoo. The symbolic meaning of Celtic knots is not really clear, although some people attribute magical powers to the knots. Celtic knot tattoo designs symbolize eternity because the lines of the knotwork form an endless loop, without a beginning or an end. A love knot tattoo design, also known as Celtic heart tattoos, symbolize the union of souls and is a good tattoo to express your devotion to your loved ones.</p> <p>
<p>Nothing symbolizes Ireland (homeland of all Celtic design) more aptly than the shamrock (a three-leafed clover), the quintessential Celtic design. The shamrock is the symbol for the Holy Trinity in the Irish Catholic church.</p> <p>
<p>A Claddagh ring is a wedding or friendship ring. The symbol is also used as a tattoo design. It depicts a heart with a crown, held by two hands.The heart stands for love, the hands for friendship, and the crown stands for loyalty.</p> <p>
<p> Celtic butterfly tattoo designs are quite popular nowadays as well. The Celtic butterfly tattoo is often quite small and feminine-looking, making it appropriate for the ankle or shoulder. The Celtic butterfly tattoo is also often seen as a lower back tattoo, adorned with Celtic swirls.</p> <p>
<p>If none of these possibilities appeal to you, there are still countless other Celtic tattoo designs that you can look at and choose from. Celtic tattoo designs are popular right now, and they are likely to remain so for some time.</p>
