Phoenix tattoos are symbols of rebirth and resurrection. The phoenix is a mythological firebird originating in Phoenician, Egyptian and Greek mythology. Most people are aware that it is a
mythological creature, the exact story is often quite fuzzy though.
In general, the story goes that the bird lives for 1000 years (or 500) at a time. Upon the conclusion of the 1000 years, it creates a nest made from myrrh twigs and burns the nest, as well as itself. Once the burning is completed, a new phoenix rises from the ashes after 3 days, to live for another 1000 years.

The story itself is often modified and altered depending on the area where it originates from, but the moral is always the same: the bird does rise again and again.
