Valknut Tattoo Meaning, Designs & Ideas

The Valknut tattoo is a great tat idea for anyone who loves Norse mythology, triangles, or who finds that the Valknut holds other meanings that work for them. It may look like a simple symbol that has three interlocked triangles, but it often means so much more than that to those who get the tattoo. On this page we are going to go over some of the reasons why you might want to get a Valknut tattoo, and we’ll will include meanings that come attached to these designs as well as some of the ways that you can create one of these tats should you choose to get one.

Before we go into what the Valknut tattoo meanings and the different types of designs you can get, we should talk about what the symbol actually is. Known as the “knot for those fallen in battle,” the Valknut was long used to honor deceased Viking soldiers. Other than that, the true meanings attached to the Valknut symbol are largely unknown. However, people have given the symbol a bunch of great meanings since that time, which are the meanings that most people use today.

The most common meaning that people do give their Valknut tattoos is the classic one: they are honoring a deceased loved one or friend. This is especially true for people who have lost someone who died in a war since Valknut is largely associated with battles. This is actually a very creative way to honor someone who is lost because you are doing so with a beautiful design that also has more special meanings attached to it.

The Valknut tattoo can also symbolize reincarnation as many people see the interlocking circles as the different dimensions of the world. If you do happen to believe in reincarnation or you simply love the idea of it, then this could be a very cool way of showing it. What’s great about the symbol is that you don’t have to tell people what meaning you’re using and most will have no idea that what it represents. That makes the Valknut a great tattoo to get if you want to keep the meanings private.
