What does a lotus tattoo mean?
The lotus grows from mud and blooms clean above the water, so it stands for purity, enlightenment and rising above hardship. It is sacred in Buddhism and Hinduism.
Where to place a lotus tattoo
A lotus sits well centred on the sternum, the back of the neck, the upper back and the ankle. Small lotus flowers suit the wrist and the inner forearm.
