Meaning Tattoo Symbols
Is it bad to mix chinese and japanese symbols in a tattoo?
and by “symbols” i don’t mean letters, words, or characters. i want to get a chinese phoenix with a japanese koi. would that be considered tacky in the tattoo world?
It’s not “Bad” like killing someone is bad. It sure is confusing though, because Japanese koi and Chinese koi have different meanings. If you pair the koi with the Chinese Phoenix, I would assume the koi is Chinese… the following came from the link below
Chinese Koi Fish Tattoos
The Koi or “dragon fish” is the king of fish and holds special significance in China. The legend says:
Any carp able to climb to the Dragon Gate along the Yellow River
will be transformed into a dragon.
As such, the koi has become symbolic of aspiration for lofty goals and dreams.
