Japanese tattoos depicting flowers or landscape are inspired from nature itself; Japanese nature tattoos are a reflection of the flora in Japan. Japanese tattoos and Japanese flower tattoos are not just meant for decorating the body; they have a profound philosophy and deep meaning behind each design. For instance the cherry blossom symbolizes transience and the beauty in breakdown. The exquisite beauty and the short life of the cherry blossom get translated into tattoo. Therefore a cherry blossom tattoo has great meaning for those who etch it on their skin; it serves as a permanent reminder of a bad past which has been overshadowed by the hope of a beautiful future. Other Japanese flowers like the Lotus symbolize estranged love and yearning; it has a mythical reference also.
