Mermaids have been an integral part of world mythology for centuries, with stories told by sailors of seductive fish-women leading ships onto rocks or even fish-women who have tried to save drowning sailors. There have been both positive and negative legends told of mermaids and continue being told to this day. Obviously most people do not believe in the existence of mermaids any longer, but many people find that they have an attraction or a drawing to the idea of the mermaid. Some so much so that they decide they would like to have the image of a mermaid tattooed on their bodies...maybe as a reminder that fantasy still exists in reality.
There are many different mermaid tattoo designs to choose from, many of which are cheesy...but some of which are unique and gorgeous.

Maybe you're a water sign or a Pagan that connects with the element water and have always had a desire to meet or be a mermaid...you might want to think about getting a mermaid tattoo design that has a little more spiritual meaning, such as the second mermaid tattoo design shown to the right. There are two mermaids forming a circle of life, if you will, with the sign of infinity being enveloped in the middle. It is also like they are yin and yang, as one mermaid is in black and white and the other mermaid is in full color. How beautiful and magical this mermaid tattoo design is. What about adding your astrological sign to the mermaid's hands or replacing the infinity symbol in the mermaid tattoo design above with your astrological sign? Be creative and be true to your spirituality when thinking up your own mermaid tattoo ideas.

Mermaid tattoo ideas for a mural tattoo could include a mermaid amongst an underwater flower garden (as shown in the picture on the right), or a mermaid in an underwater castle scene. What about a mermaid or mermaids sitting on some rocks, combing their hair on the side of an island? Think about the image of Sirens as a unique mermaid tattoo idea. What image or scene pops into your mind when you think of mermaids? Go with that image as your authentic and majestic mermaid tattoo design...go with your gut.
