When choosing an appropriate tattoo, it is quite common that the tattooist will have an array of tribal tattoo designs upon their wall. These are the stable for any tattoo parlour, as quite often, they are highly likely to be picked, either as an individual tattoo, or as part of the intricate design of a larger tattoo which has been constructed.

Tribal tattoos used to be specifically that. They were used by many different tribes in their initiations, rites, and everyday life. The tattoos allowed other members who had left, or those of another tribe, to see who belonged to what tribe. Although that use is not valid in our modern western society, tribal tattoos are still popular.

There are other reasons why these tribal tattoo designs were also used, and this is for certain occasions. In some tribes, a right of passage, such as the changing from childhood to adulthood, is marked by a tattoo, showing that they are now man or woman, rather than boy or girl. There are also occasions when these are actually wedding tattoos. Usually, a wedding tattoo will be a tribal style band, which denotes everlasting love and fidelity.

In today's society the tribal tattoo designs are often just interesting, and beautiful designs. Most that are picked out are actually Celtic tribal tattoo designs. But perhaps there is a reason for this. A reason for why they attract so many. These designs were often used by Druids after all.

The Celtic tribal tattoo designs are no longer specifically worn by druids, however, when they are they are not for decoration and beauty, but are instead used within magical rituals which are performed by the druids. It is said that these tattoos are hidden signals which can be used to activate spells.

Today, the most popular of all these tattoos is the Celtic cross. This is not only popular among those who wish to have a tribal tattoo, but can be chosen as part of religious identification, or tattooed for the memory of another, one who was lost.
