Libra tattoos


Libra tattoos are commonly made by Libras but many other tattoo fans also get them due to the designs. Given below are some of the coolest Libra tattoos you can go for so take a look.
Libra, which is the seventh sign of the zodiac is derived from the constellation of Libra and is also known as 'the scales'. One unique feature of this zodiac is that unlike any other zodiac sign, which are generally represented by people or animals, it is represented by a set of scales. Along with being the unique of all the twelve signs, it is also considered as the youngest of them. The element of Libra is "air" and is considered to govern many dominant qualities of the zodiac sign. Some of the best qualities in a Libra are that, they have excellent communication skills with great powers of concentration and determination. They are big believers of fairness and justice and thus their characteristics go with the scales.

Tattoos are something that many people use as representations of either themselves, something they believe in or memories which they want for life. Thus people who belong to this zodiac sign or believe in it get these Libra tattoos made. Sometimes, people get them done, as they are great tattoo designs as well. Find out if you like any of the following designs mentioned just for you!

Libra Tattoo Ideas

Libra tattoo signs are limited as the only significant representations of the zodiac sign are the number 7, Roman symbol of scales, actual scales and other conversions of these signs. Thus the designs for Libra tattoos mentioned in the following paragraphs are unique as well as common. So take a look and find your favorites.

The Scales of Justice Tattoos
The scales are the main signs of the Libra since they stand for the fair nature of Libras. There are a number of designs for these scales and they are drawn in unique and elegant ways. A woman holding the scales of justice is a common design but many times you can make an angel holding them to make the design unique. These scales can be drawn in small sizes as well as large full size depending on the area you're getting the tattoo in. There can be Celtic tattoos which can be drawn as scales to make them look attractive. Libra tattoos are often inked as scales since that is the element of Libra but there can be many other deigns like names and text written with them. Hence if you want to get the "scales of justice", you can come up with some of your own designs to merge with them as simple scales look boring and common.

The Glyph Tattoos
Another very commonly used symbol of the Libra sign is the "glyph", which is written symbol representing the element of justice. This symbol has two parallel lines but the top line has a semicircle in between. This glyph is more commonly used than the scales as it is a tiny and easy symbol. You can get this symbol in a variety of sizes and absolutely anywhere you want. The symbol again can be combined with a number of other designs like angel wings, ribbons, the scales, a woman, flowers, etc. There can be text written along with the glyph like the qualities in the Libras, names, Greek verses, and many more. When pictures are accompanied with texts and words, they look even more attractive. The glyph is generally made in black but sometimes a colored one can also look very different.

Other Libra Tattoos
There are many other designs which also work as great Libra tattoos. For women, the glyph with flower tattoos and butterflies make a very nice design. Angel wing tattoos with the angel standing with the scales is also an amazing tattoo design for the back or the arm regions. Libra tattoos for men can be either skulls combined with the glyph and scales or a Greek God holding the scales of justice. You can customize these tattoos in whichever way you wish to and make the most out of these designs. The number 7 in Roman numbers can also be combined with nautical star tattoos or simply made individually.
