Slavic Tattoo Photo #12470

From the thunder god Perun to the solar wheel of Svarog, Slavic mythology offers a rich catalogue of protective symbols, nature spirits, and geometric patterns rooted in folk embroidery and wood carving traditions. Slavic pagan gods and mythological figures Perun, the god of thunder and war, appears as a bearded warrior with a lightning bolt or axe.

Geometric tattoos use precise lines, angles, and repeated shapes to form structured compositions. Symmetry and mathematical patterns give these designs a modern, architectural quality.

The shoulder's rounded shape gives tattoos a natural frame, wrapping designs around the deltoid muscle. It's a versatile placement that transitions easily into a sleeve or back piece.
