Unlock the Mystery:
Friday the 13th Tattoos

Are you ready to dive into the world of mystery, superstition, and ink?

Friday the 13th is not just a day to beware of black cats and broken mirrors; it’s also a massive event in the tattoo community. Let’s unravel why Friday the 13th tattoos are a thing and why you should totally get one (or ten).

First things first: Why is Friday the 13th considered unlucky?

The origins are murky, but it’s a mash-up of fear surrounding the number 13 and Friday's unlucky reputation. Whether it's ancient Norse mythology or some historical events, the number 13 and Friday had a rough rep way before Hollywood horror flicks made it a big deal.

• Norse Mythology: One of the oldest tales comes from Norse mythology. Legend has it that 12 gods were having a feast in Valhalla when Loki, the trickster god, crashed the party as the 13th guest. Chaos ensued, leading to the death of the beloved god Balder. This myth cemented 13 as an unlucky number.
  
• The Last Supper: In Christianity, the Last Supper had 13 attendees—Jesus and his 12 apostles. Judas, the apostle who betrayed Jesus, was the 13th guest, which added to the stigma around the number.
  
• Friday’s Bad Rep: Fridays were considered unlucky for various reasons. In the Middle Ages, it was believed that Friday was the day when witches gathered, and it was also said to be the day Adam and Eve were expelled from Eden. For sailors, embarking on a voyage on a Friday was considered bad luck.
  
• Knights Templar: Another significant historical event tied to Friday the 13th was the mass arrest of the Knights Templar by King Philip IV of France on Friday, October 13, 1307. Many Templars were tortured and executed, leading to the day being associated with misfortune.
  
  
  

With all these ominous associations, it’s no wonder Friday the 13th has such a spooky vibe. But that’s exactly what makes it the perfect day for tattoo enthusiasts to come together and celebrate the mysterious and macabre.

What kind of tattoos are we talking about?

Usually, it’s small, flash tattoos with a Friday the 13th twist. Here are some popular designs:

• Black Cats: Embrace the superstition with a sleek, shadowy feline.
  
• Skulls and Skeletons: A nod to the macabre and mysterious.
  
• Number 13: Keep it classic with the iconic number in various styles.
  
• Daggers and Knives: Symbolizing protection or maybe a hint of danger.
  
• Spooky Creatures: Think bats, spiders, and other creepy-crawlies.
  
• Lucky Charms: Horseshoes, four-leaf clovers, and other symbols to counteract the bad luck.
