Do Piercings or Tattoos have Spiritual meaning or significance?
That depends on the person wearing them. Many people get them for aesthetic beauty, to others they’re a form of speech, making a statement about their beliefs, and oftentimes they are spiritual and have a lot of meaning to the wearer. They often represent a specific event in the wearers life. Many people get them as a statement of strength or reclaiming their bodies after a divorce, drug or alcohol problem or after being the victim of a crime. It’s a way of saying “This is my body and I’ll choose what happens to it”. For many others it’s simply a fad with no meaning at all.
