The lucky charm for all times – a horseshoe – is another very peculiar motif that definitely deserves your attention. If you want to attract good luck or become a little luckier, you should definitely consider putting such a tattoo on your body.

The meaning of the tattoo horseshoe

The horseshoe only at first glance seems simple, and sometimes not a logical motif for a modern body drawing. But we hasten to assure you that everything is not so unambiguous. The image of a horseshoe is rarely alone, because other elements are almost always present on the sketch. As expected, each additional element contributes something different to the meaning of the tattoo, but it is worth looking at examples:

• A horseshoe combined with feathers is interpreted as an easy climb toward a goal;
• If there is a horse in the picture, then such a tattoo acquires the symbolism of freedom and speed;
• A horseshoe can be combined with the image of a dream catcher, placed directly on it – the tattoo in this case is used as a talisman against evil forces;
• Horseshoe and flowers – this is a very strong double talisman;
• There is a criminal tattoo with a horseshoe – if there is a number on the tattoo next to the symbol of luck, then such a talisman gives good luck when escaping from prison;
• The combination of a horseshoe and the symbol of infinity can be conventionally translated as “infinite luck”.

The main interpretation of the tattoo with a horseshoe, as you see yourself, exclusively positive – it is good luck, prosperity, success and happiness. It is also important to consider the position of the ends of the horseshoe – for the abundance “horns” should look up, and if they look down, then their action is aimed at protecting the bearer.

Horseshoe tattoo for men and women

Most often it is men who are the bearers of such talismans. The stronger sex believes that a tattoo with a horseshoe gives them a lot of “pluses”:

• Invincibility in arguments;
• Ease of earning money;
• Luck in gambling and so on.

Especially often such a tattoo is found in a variant of the combination with a horse, hinting at the freedom of men. Another popular tattoo is a horseshoe with a clover.

Tattoos with a horseshoe are increasingly observed on women, but ladies as usual put a few other meaning. With such a tattoo talisman they try to attract love, happiness, confidence into their lives. Especially often such a drawing women try to attract a life partner.

Styles of a horseshoe tattoo

Tattoo with a horseshoe can be embodied in absolutely any style. We advise to evaluate first of all the sketches in the style of old-school – this is the real classic of the art of the body drawing. These tattoos are equally suitable for ladies and serious men.
