It is no wonder that the Guardian Angel tattoos have become very popular in the past few decades, especially if you consider the fact that having a guardian angel tattoo is like having your guardian angel with you all the time!

Christianity holds that there are guardian angels for each person and that the guardian angel protects that person in times of crisis. Having a Guardian Angel Tattoo is an extension of that belief but it is not reserved for Christians only and many people, with different religious backgrounds have chosen to have a guardian angel tattoo.

God assigns a specific person for each guardian angel, and that angel's sole purpose is to protect that person. Another way to look at guardian angels is that they are the spirits of family and friends who have died and are now protecting us.

Although most people imagine angels with wings, the bible doesn't actually mention wings on the angels. For many, the image of the Cherub represents the way they imagine guardian angels. This is why the cherub tattoo is the ultimate guardian angel tattoo for many. In the Old Testament the cherubs are depicted as the bearers of God' throne and in Christianity and Islam they are portrayed as celestial attendants of God who worship him perpetually.

Here are a few celebrities who chose to get Guardian Angel Tattoos: Drew Barrymore, Justin Timberlake, Melanie C., Beyonce, Fred Durst and David Beckham.

Fashion and trends may come and go but when you choose to have a guardian angel tattoo you will surely never regret it as it will always carry a deep meaning for you, and will reflect your spirituality and beauty.
