Chinese Phoenix Tattoos

Phoenix Tattoos - The mythological bird of fire is familiar to most of us, but perhaps not so well-known is in it’s original meaning -- 'phoenix' in Greek means 'palm tree'.

Tales of the phoenix appear in ancient Arabian, Greek, Roman, and Far Eastern mythology. In both Greek and Egyptian tales, the phoenix represented the sun, dying in flames at the end of the day and rising each morning. Early Christians came to view the flight of the phoenix as a symbol of rebirth and the resurrection, leaving the old world for the new world of the spirit, dying and rising again, reborn. It symbolized the victory of life over death, immortality, and Christ’s resurrection. Jewish legend describes the phoenix as the one creature that did not leave paradise with Adam, and that its legendary longevity is due to abstaining from the forbidden fruit that tempted the 'first man'. On Roman coins, the phoenix represented an undying empire.

One of the deepest human yearnings is connectedness, true, absolute connectedness. We have this deep longing to be irrevocably linked to another body, another soul (Chinese phoenix tattoos of love are a good way for this). This is, I guess, what inspires the long-term companionship of marriage. marriage is not only about procreating and raising children. marriage has the potential to go much deeper. apparently that was so even in 13th century China. This is interesting because sociologists sometimes have us believe that marriage inspired by romantic love, love that is driven primarily by emotions and only secondarily by physical passions , is a product of medieval Europe.

The Phoenix bird is a mythological beat that is said to live between 500 and 1,500 years (depending on the legend) and at the end of it's life cycle it builds a nest of cinnamon twigs and then ignites the nest and itself. After being burned down to ashes a new young Poenix then rises out of the ashes! In this way the Poenix bird is believed to live an immortal life.
