The moon is one of the most universally recognized symbols in human culture, representing cycles, mystery, feminine energy, and the constant presence of change. Its appeal in body art comes from both its visual beauty and its ability to carry deeply personal meaning without needing explanation.

Originating from centuries-old cultural practices, tribal designs carry symbolic weight through their patterns and placement. Modern tribal tattoos adapt these traditional motifs into contemporary compositions that honor the style's heritage.

The ribcage offers a private placement that only shows when the wearer chooses. Its curved surface adds dimension to designs, though the area is known for being one of the more sensitive spots to tattoo.
