Looking for an interesting tattoo design that is ideal for any parts of the body and has many unique and uplifting meanings, the hot air balloon tattoo may be the perfect choice. One reason for the mass appeal when it comes to the hot air balloon is it can be drawn in a number of ways, it can incorporate other personalized symbols, and the array of colors used in the design is limitless.<\/p>\n

Here are some of the reasons this not so mainstream tattoo design is appealing in its own way.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Symbolic Hot Air Balloon<\/h2>\n

While those who are not into tattoos may simply see the hot air balloon as a unique traveling device to see the world from a different perspective, body ink wearers love the deep associations to the hot air balloon.<\/p>\n

Most of all the hot air balloon representations are positive in nature, and that uplifting sense is appealing on a global scale. The hot air balloon tattoo symbolizes a unique type of freedom, uplifting spirit, a sense of achievement, inspiration, the love of flight, celebration, and overall happiness.<\/p>\n

Transforming the Balloon<\/h2>\n

As appealing as these associations to the hot air balloon may be, body ink lovers can easily transform the design in a more personal way by adding in some other elements.<\/p>\n

Cartoon children can be drawn inside the basket of the balloon or on the balloon itself to represent the love for a child, having childlike qualities, or remembering a time in their childhood when things were certainly not as complicated as they have become today. The bright colors and fun cartoon images are whimsical, fun, creative, carefree, and fearless in nature.<\/p>\n

The Balloon Memorial<\/h2>\n

Others use the hot air balloon tattoo to memorialize the passing of a loved one. Due to the nature of this object, it closely is associated with children, the perfect image to memorialize the passing of a child. The child’s image can be drawn right on the balloon, or they can be riding below in the basket.<\/p>\n

This is a very personal style design that allows the wearer to remember the child in a positive light, keeping them connected in this world, until we all meet again in the next life. The hot air balloon evokes thoughts of happy times with the child as you struggle to deal without them.<\/p>\n

The Spiritual Connection<\/h2>\n

The hot air balloon tattoo even has connections with the spiritual world, giving a person the ability to rise above this earth and to look down and see that in the grand scheme of things no issue is too big to climb above.<\/p>\n

Floating above the world, this design is representative for many the ability to be closer to God, to soar through the heavens and connect with those who have passed, while still having to live life here on earth. That soaring sensation, the rising above all obstacles, is a soothing and calming representation, allowing one to be at peace with themselves and everything that has or will happen to them in the future.<\/p>\n

Whether remembering a child, showcasing your free will, or your ability to deal with any size obstacles, the hot air balloon tattoo allows the wearer to create a permanent reminder of something near to their heart.<\/p>\n
