Tattoo Meaning

The skunk, often misunderstood, symbolizes boundaries, self-respect, and the power of asserting oneself. While known for its defense mechanism, it also represents adaptability and resourcefulness. A tattoo featuring a skunk can embody a personality that is gentle yet firm, independent, and unafraid to stand its ground, while the surrounding blossoms speak to beauty, growth, and resilience.
