Orientals are simple: they find a way towards<\/strong>
\nlighting in anything of daily use<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

they have the tea ceremony
\nthe path of brush<\/a>
\nmartial arts
\nomamori
\norigami<\/a>
\n\u2026<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

and they also have the way of flowers:
\n<\/strong>
\nthat simple move of placing two flowers in a vase on their home table,
\nthat becomes for them a sacred ritual, complex and magnificent<\/p>\n

it’s called Ikebana<\/strong><\/p>\n

sacred ritual, meditation occasion and path towards
\nthe lighting, all by placing flowers in a vase<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

what does ikebana have to do with tattoos?<\/h3>\n

simple
\nyou can tattoo floral compositions created by following the structures
\nof ikebana ^_^<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

why should I get an ikebana tattoo?<\/h3>\n

because they are very cool compositions ^_^<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

also because they teach us a method of image composition
\nwhich has the purpose of balancing unbalanced asymmetrical forces <\/strong>
\nto create a composition in harmony with the universe<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

basically what we all try to do every day with our life: trying to make things right despite
\nlife gives us things that together do not fit at all<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Ikebana structures are often vertical<\/strong><\/p>\n

when a plant grows upright, opposing the force of gravity, appearing resistant and vigorous, transmitting to the viewer a feeling of energy and determination<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/strong><\/p>\n

its asymmetrical structure instead immerses us in the concept of imperfect beauty that is an integral part of the Japanese sense of beauty<\/p>\n

beauty can only be imperfect
\nand it is wonderful because it is imperfect<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

hence the imbalance of certain parts of the composition in a balanced combination attracts our attention and leads us to reflect, creating an immediate relationship between the observer and the composition<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

therefore, you would like to get a flowers tattoo and you are looking for a symbol of strength,
\nlife determination despite its imperfections?<\/p>\n

here it is, you have found it<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

ikebana is an exaltation of the force of life<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

it is difficult to create a harmonious composition of natural elements
\nunbalancing the weights to balance them and making them point straight towards
\ninfinity and beyond
\nlike in life
\nbut in life we \u200b\u200bare somehow obliged to try to do it
\nand in ikebana, centuries of history give us guidelines on how to do it:<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

three elements are taken and arranged in a scalene triangle which points at the top<\/strong><\/p>\n

the first element at the bottom represents the earth<\/em>, its stability and its\"\"
\ntangles
\nthe third element at the top represents the sky<\/em>, the spiritual elevation, the
\nlightness of soul
\nand in the middle, there is man<\/em><\/p>\n

who fits between these two giants and tries to live his life untangling the skein of its roots to reach the upper floors where the sun shines<\/p>\n

there is always a protagonist<\/strong> flower that must be highlighted by following the
\ntwo basic rules of asymmetry and dynamism, then there are other \u201chelping\u201d<\/em> elements<\/strong>
\nwho coexist without competition, respecting the principle of balance that gives birth to ikebana, helping the thrust upward<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

ikebana in a tattoo, as in reality, is the thrust towards the balance of forces different from each other
\nwhich create asymmetry<\/strong>
\nand they can still be super cool together<\/strong>
\nand in harmony despite the differences<\/strong><\/p>\n

which seems like the world is working on this wonderful concept little by little, right now<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

with love, but always irriverent<\/p>\n
