Music note tattoo - The usage of musical “notes” in tattoos
 Music is considered to be a universal language through out the world.
If you fail to understand Chinese or Greek, probably music is one of its
kinds which no body fails to understand. Starting from a layman even an
illiterate would understand music. It is a language liked and loved by
all. There are people who are obsessed about music to such an extent
that they even started a new trend of painting musical notes on their
skin. It has become common practice to select a music note for a tattoo
design. Music note tattoos are derived from the inspiration one gets
from the love of music, or even just the love of a person or thing. It's
completely based on inspiration and as such the notes used for forming
the tattoo are pretty uniquely used. While one might be using a notation
in several forms, they can also combine them to form certain other eye
catching shapes. There are some people who have grown up around music,
and therefore feel it’s attached to their soul. They may have grown up
with a parent or other beloved relative that felt the same connection to
music, and to symbolize that connection, choose a music note to tattoo
on their body. The shape and size of the notes can be varied based on
several factors. One of them might be the strength of the attachment
which the person feels towards music itself. Others are like the size of
the person. A big man sporting a small note won't be a very suitable
combination. What one can do is to pair them up with other notations. It
works pretty well. Similarly one can simply enlarge a notation acting as
the centre piece and the rest of the notations rotating around them as
if they were working in their own musical system mirroring our own solar
system.
 The most commonly used music note tattoo is the G-clef. When
you feel a connection to music, you feel it in your soul. There is no
specific type that speaks to you; it all seems like the soundtrack of
your life. What better way to symbolize that than to choose one of the
music note designs as your tattoo? When heart, mind and soul are
combined together to form a singular connection with a notation, then
that notation represents your life's vital energy. It becomes a part of
your soul and your living memory. Thus it is all the more reason that
one goes to have a tattoo done for the right reasons instead of just a
superficial enlistment of social status. Things done for the wrong
reasons don’t necessarily go wrong. So even if you don't have any
attachment to music and are simply doing this because maybe your fiancé
or your girlfriend has one, it might still work for you. Just a few
you can use include the actual notes, the G-Clef or Treble Clef, and
some people even use the time signatures. It’s without a doubt that had
it been customary at the time, Mozart or Chopin would have had a music
note tattoo somewhere on their being, because of their infinite passion
for music and harmony. Tattoos provide a unique sense to freedom of
expression. It is considered as having the ability to express yourself
without the need of mouthing it all the time. It's like carrying around
a trendy banner which has on board a piece of your mind. The use of time
signatures in musical note tattoos is extremely significant for the fact
that they represent the immortality of music. Thus, siding with an
immortal entity makes you immortal.
