The most interesting thing about a scorpion is the sting in its curving tail. Without that deadly stinger, it would be a fairly innocuous little creature. It’s very interesting to see how the scorpion’s sting is represented in various scorpion tattoos. Some tattoos for example, incorporate what appears to be a small exploding bomb at the end of the scorpion’s tail. Others concentrate on depicting the needle-sharpness of the scorpion’s stinger.
Like a curled fist, the partially coiled scorpion image seems to indicate that its wearer is a fighter, someone to be reckoned with, someone not to cross. The arms, shoulders and the back are the most popular spots for a large scorpion tattoo.
On the other hand, a small scorpion on a woman’s foot or ankle is both attractive and intriguing – it’s the type of tattoo that works as a reminder that while the scorpion might be small, he is mighty and should be feared. In a small but unobtrusive way, the wearer sends a signal that even the small and quiet can be forceful and sometimes deadly.
