An Expedition Into the Ideas Surrounding Christian & Celtic Crosses and Japanese Water Tattoos


Koi Fish and Spectacular Wave Japanese Water Tattoos

Moving onto number two we have Japanese water tattoos, there are any number of varied, weird and wonderful tattoo designs in this genera ranging from spectacular wave formations to all manner of swimming Koi and varying amounts of water.

The Koi is a fish that originated in China but the Japanese have adopted the fish with lots of meanings. In Japan they are said to be particularly prized for their manly abilities, to the Japanese this fish emulates the warrior, their Samurai, in that when the fish is on the chopping board it maintains its honor by laying perfectly still even though it 'knows' it is about to die.

The Japanese were so taken with the Koi fish and all the manly attributes it is said to display that they felt it was the appropriate symbol for the annual Boys' Day Festival. It is meant to display and represent all the qualities boy are hoped to aspire to such as overcoming life's difficulties, courage and having the ability and staying power to achieve lofty goals. During their annual Boys' Day Festival each family flies a Koi flag for each boy in the family.
