220+ Amazing Galaxy Tattoo Designs with Meanings For Men and Women (2024)

Galaxy tattoos are perfect for those who love space, stars, and outer space. You can make your space-inspired tattoos thanks to the internet where you will find lots of inspiration like free space patterns, space tattoo ideas, or space-inspired quotes.

Galaxy tattoos are not only for space geeks, space enthusiasts, or astronomy lovers. They are also perfect for people who love space-related movies, space ships, astronauts, and outer space in general.

Galaxy Tattoo Ideas

According to NASA, there are at least 100 trillion galaxies in our universe.  Each galaxy has a different shape and different sizes. The galaxy we live in is called the milky way galaxy.

Believe it or not, the symbol for our galaxy is none other than a milk dipper. We all love to indulge in this creamy and sweet beverage.

So why is it a dipper? We know that there are many different shapes of galaxies from spirals to ellipticals, etc. Our galaxy happens to have a more elongated shape rather than circular or some other odd shape. Since we live within this galaxy and our planet revolves around a star that lies within a spiral arm of the galaxy, it makes sense for us to be represented by something oval-shaped.

 A milk dipper also has two distinct parts: a big outer part and a small inner part. This would represent how our Sun with its planets revolve within the Milky Way Galaxy while being relatively smaller in size compared to the outer universe.

Most tattoo artists will focus on inking the milky way galaxy only. A common idea is to show our solar system in the milky way galaxy tattoo. DO remember that our sun is around 30K light years away from the center of the galaxy and 25K light years away from the final edge.

This fact must be remembered while inking a galaxy tattoo. You can try other designs as well inspired from the Andromeda galaxy or from the galaxies introduced in pop culture via Star Wars, Star Trek, Guardians of the Galaxy, and Doctor who.

Our milky way galaxy itself has become one of the most popular cosmic tattoos around today, and for good reason too. It is because space tattoos have been becoming more and more appreciated by people that they are being seen more frequently nowadays. Galaxies carry with them a deep sense of mystery due to their gorgeous appearance, so much so that many who look upon them cannot help but marvel at their beauty.

Galaxy Tattoo Meaning

A galaxy tattoo can have several different meanings but some of the most beautiful is –

Eternity – Galaxies were formed some 60 million years after the big bang. Ever since then Galaxies have become a defining part of the larger universe. A Galaxy tattoo would imply that you believe in eternal love and eternal beliefs.

Mystic – Despite our advancement in technology we are yet to find why and how galaxies are formed? We are yet to understand how big a galaxy can get? This mystic around the galaxy is what can be used for your tattoo design.

Life – Even though our milky way galaxy is the only galaxy that we know of harboring life this doesn’t mean that there is no life in another part of the universe. We are just a drop in the ocean. If you believe the same then a galaxy tattoo is the perfect choice for you.

Galaxy Tattoo Placement

If you want the universe to be depicted in its cosmic form then back is the perfect place for it. The universe could be inked in the fashion of the Milky Way galaxy, where it appears to be bursting out from an unknown point in space. 

However, if you do not want to try it in large size then you should ink ring galaxies on your forearm or even on your chest. Another cool idea would be to try a galaxy plate inked across your wrist.

There are so many ideas and designs that the sky is the limit. Here we have picked more than 220 beautiful galaxy tattoo designs that will suit both men and women. Take a look –
