Origin and meaning of Medusa tattoo
Medusa is one of the three Gorgon sisters, creatures whose hair is made of living venomous snakes that can turn anyone who looks at them into a stone statue. According to Greek mythology, Medusa was once an extremely beautiful girl with the role of a virgin priestess serving the goddess of war and wisdom Athena.
Poseidon was attracted to this beauty and raped her right in Athena’s temple. This made the goddess angry, thinking that Medusa had insulted a sacred place, so she punished her by turning her into a monster that people feared.
The image of Medusa is associated with women and feminism because her story is seen as an example of victim blaming, a common problem today. Therefore, Medusa tattoos often have many profound meanings such as:
- Protection for women who have been sexually assaulted
- Life, strength and survivability
- The woman’s anger and indignation
