Cherry blossom tattoo - what does it symbolize

Even if these flowers are mostly associated with Japan, they are also a part of China’s culture as well but represent an entirely different meaning as how it is traditionally observed in Japan. It would be therefore interesting to know as what cherry blossom tattoo symbolizes in relation to how the flower is celebrated in these two countries.The blossoming of these flowers marks the coming of spring in Japan and paves the way for hanami or cherry blossom viewing. This event is observed with blithe and exuberance – people gather under the trees while enjoying the intensity and beauty of the blossoming flowers that last only for days. Thus, cherry blossom is a symbol that is associated with the life of samurai warriors of old Japan which could end violently at any time just as cherry blossom would shed its petals after a fleeting moment. It is a felicitous symbol and a poignant reminder of the fragility and transitory of life. The flowing petals of cherry blossom represent the sacrifice that these warriors have to go through to defend their emperors. It is a symbol associated with the beauty and fragility of human life.
