The meaning of the pegasus tattoo

Pegasus tattoo primarily evokes associations with Greece and ancient Greek mythology.

According to legends, the white winged horse was a companion of the supreme god Zeus. According to another legend, Pegasus managed to rescue the patron goddess of the muses Hippocrenus from the ground, for which he is often considered a symbol of poetic insight and inspiration.

We will not talk about mythology for a long time, because you have probably already read the meaning of a horse tattoo and you know that it is the personification of strength, speed and endurance.

The same qualities are inherent in the image with a pegasus. A beautifully executed pegasus tattoo will look perfect on the body of both a guy and a girl.

It is difficult to advise any specific place for such a tattoo. Suffice it to say that this is a decent subject for a large, voluminous tattoo on the chest, side, or shoulder.
