What does a tattoo of the ace of spades mean?

Answer 1

It can mean different things to different people. I have a friend whose last name is Spaid and he got the ace of spades tattooed on his back. People get tattoos for different reasons for different meanings. ** Here's a more specific answer. The Ace of Spades is traditionally symbolic of two things, which themselves are often linked. Those two things are Metamorphosis and Death. To flip over the Ace of Spades in any kind of card reading is to get a warning of impending death - whether it be your own or someone linked to you. However - it doesn't always have to be a literal death - it could be a death of a certain self, or a phase of life, thus opening to path to a new existence or new identity. People who sport the Ace of Spades are, whether they know it or not, announcing that they welcome death as a means to a better existence, or simply, that they are not afraid of death and the changes it will bring. This is why the Ace of Spades is popular with soldiers. **
