Meaning of Cloud Tattoos

A cloud symbolizes some divisions and transformations between heaven and earth. The cloud itself is an element that brings great changes and is related to natural phenomena such as temperature, rain, thunder and lightning.

Its relationship with rain and the environment is associated with sources of fertility, prosperity and abundance. These natural changes that show undefined aspects represent detachment and lack of control over nature.

Referring to the spiritual world, it is the division between earth and heaven, or paradise, between the human world and the divine world. In Greek and Roman mythology, it is the place that represents the dwelling of the gods.

In Islamic culture, it symbolizes cloudiness in the course of life. According to belief, the cloud surrounds the rays of light, so that we do not receive them all at once, as we would not be able to bear such illumination. For this reason, the shadow of a cloud helps us with self-knowledge during life.

Within Chinese culture, the cloud symbolizes the transformation and transition that a sage must go through to reach eternity and a spiritual elevation.

Their symbolism also varies according to their colors. Darker clouds usually symbolize turbulence, chaos, and negative events. The cleanest and lightest clouds, on the other hand, symbolize lightness, purity, and positive events.
