Great bird and to which many values and connotations are attributed, I would dare to say almost all of them positive. In addition, it is a very important symbol in the USA. and there are many Americans who choose to tattoo this animal on their skins.
It is a very central element in American culture and therefore, some of the first meanings that this animal reveals to us is its relationship with patriotism or with issues in relation to the military for example. Not only that, but it has also been associated in American society as a symbol of freedom (probably associated with the image of an eagle flying between the mountains, following its path without any obstacle), we will return to this issue later.
Precisely of that privileged position of which we speak, being on the heights (above people) is one of the reasons why all these grandiloquence and power values are associated. Able to leave the earthly, to follow his path and move on.
Throughout history and in a transversal way, the eagle has been considered a very important element in different cultures and in most of them it was considered sacred. Some of them associated it with the sun and sacred elements, as indicated above, with meanings related to religion and tradition. Other communities saw the eagle as an almighty animal, capable of contemplating everything that happened on earth from above. For others, a symbol of strength and enlightenment, this animal was thought of as capable of transferring luck in battles, as a symbol associated with triumph.
The tenacity, the speed of reaction and the ability to achieve what one proposes, can be attitudes and abilities that fit perfectly with the eagle. For these reasons, we can see that although there are many meanings that are associated with this animal; Each of the people who have tattooed eagles can be in turn for different reasons. What is completely clear is that, all the meanings that we have seen so far associated with the eagle are positive and all this has to do, in large part, to the positive perception that has existed on this animal over time and on the part from different cultures.
As anticipated at the beginning of the article, in North America it is a central element and it makes sense of great relevance to the culture we are talking about. Therefore, we can find out with certainty and without fear of being wrong, that Americans are one of the groups that most often tattoo this animal. Unlike other designs, the design of an eagle rarely appears accompanied by other elements (sometimes it can be accompanied by the American flag) and it is that the meaning it has is so powerful that it is not necessary to reinforce it with other elements as it can happen With other types of designs.
