Celtic Butterfly Tattoos
Butterflies were a very religious symbol in the Celtic
Society. They believed that each butterfly had its own soul. The belief was that in order for it to be reborn, it had to conceal itself in the food or drink of a woman, and after the woman consumed her meal the butterfly would impregnate her and soon be reborn as a human.
The Celts believed that butterflies were fairies, and that they brought abundance and good fortune, as well as growth and change. This would be one of the reasons why the Celtic Knot butterfly tattoo is so popular. They also represented the transformation, the rebirth, and the renewal of life.
The Celts didn’t keep many ancient records, but stories were passed from one generation to the next. They often tattooed themselves with beautiful Celtic tattoo designs of their favorite symbols of life. Even today Celts use the Celtic Knot butterfly tattoo to acknowledge their heritage.Read more…
