Triangles are interesting. They can have different meanings based on the way they are oriented. Over-all, they generally represent
Trinities…or triads.
Father, mother and child.
Past, present and future.
Father, son and the Holy Ghost.
A triangle with the point facing up can be a symbol of
aspiration and masculine energy. It can also represent stability. A triangle with the point facing down can be a symbol of
feminine energy.
The triangle can also mean change or transformation and
represents the elements earth, fire, water and air. It depends on which way the
triangle faces and if it has a line intersecting it.
Below are some custom tattoo designs where I incorporated triangles somewhere in the design for their meaning.
