45 fly tattoos (and what they mean)
The art of tattooing is a practice that has existed for millennia and has different goals: artistic, cultural, or identification. Nowadays, tattoos have different meanings depending on the desires and experiences of those who wear them. Some represent life experiences, important moments, sentimental motives, or, more simply, fashion. We're going to talk to you here, more specifically about fly tattoos, because even if they're not very cuddly insects, their image has incredible meaning.
The meaning of a fly tattoo
The fly is usually an unpleasant and unpleasant insect. However, a fly tattoo can have many meanings or symbols. These insects are given religious or superstitious significance.

- Perseverance: Due to his behavior, which signifies undeniable stubbornness, great ingenuity and always vigilant attitude, many people decide to get this insect tattoo as a symbol of perseverance.
- Life: The fly image is also associated with the process of change, culmination and the beginning of a new life.
Another reason to get a fly tattoo is simply the interest this insect can generate in each of us.
Did you know that forensic scientists use incubation and growth cycles of larvae to fly stage to determine the time of death of a corpse? This means that the cycles of life are periodically repeated: we are born, grow and die, but at the same time, life is also born from a decaying body.
There may be a double symbol on hobby fly tattoos:
- Negative symbolism associated with death and decay of bodies that were once alive.
- Positive symbolism: the fly, on contact with waste, breaks down and converts all these components into high quality nutrients. Interesting, right?
