Choose from these lucky tattoo symbols and get luck on your side.

Dice
A dice is synonymous with gambling and games of chance. It represents luck, an uncertain future or risk taking. A flaming dice design with the number seven usually means a lot of luck or an intense love of gambling. While a pair of snake eyes, or two dice that both show ones, is a tattoo design that is very unlucky, and could symbolize the dangers of gambling.

777 Tattoo
Historically the number seven has always been associated with good luck in the West and this dates back to Biblical times.

Nautical star
A nautical star is a five armed star with each arm divided into two symmetric sections. These symmetric sections of each arm are coloured with alternate colors. It dates back to the days when sailors tattooed it on their bodies as it they relied on the North star for navigation in the night. This star stays at the same position for a long period of time. Sailors started tattooing this nautical star as they considered it a lucky charm, which will bring them back home safely.

Cat with a halo
It's believed that cats have nine lives. There is an air of mystery surrounding them, that also extends to symbolism and a halo around it's head is considered to bring luck.

Gecko tattoo
It usually symbolises the human soul seeking light, and is considered to be very lucky.

Swallow
The swallow tattoo was usually tattooed on the chest, hands or neck by sailors. Travelling these great distances was extremely difficult and dangerous in the early days of sailing, so one or more swallow tattoos denoted a very experienced sailor. It is also legend that if the sailor drowns, the swallows will carry their soul to heaven, representing freedom and hope. It also represents love, care and affection towards family and friends, showing the loyalty of the person always returning to them.

Horseshoe
In the West the horseshoe has long been regarded as a lucky charm. The ancient Romans invented the horseshoe — the 'U' shape was believed to ward off evil. The shape itself was also associated with a crescent moon and hence fertility. Now a days, horseshoes are hung over doorways pointing down to ward off bad luck, and pointing up to hold good luck.
