Harry Potter: the best spell tattoos of the saga

Spell tattoos

«Who has not seen / read Harry Potter raise your hand". If that were said in a room full of people, few would be the hands that would be seen rising. And is that the story of the young wizard at Hogwarts school is one of the most famous works of fiction. You may even still be waiting for your letter from school (I at least haven't received mine), so, While you wait, you can learn magic with these spell tattoos.

I present you, in alphabetical order, the most symbolic tattoos of the entire saga:

alohomora

Alohomora Tattoo

This enchantment It is used to open doors and locks, even those with the Colloportus spell (which, as you can guess, is used to close a door so that it cannot be opened by hand). However, there are other spells that are immune to Alohomora, such as the one that protects the door to Snape's office.

The first time it appears is in harry potter and the Philosopher's Stone, when Hermione uses it to go through the door where Fluffy the three-headed dog is.

When tattooing this spell, we can symbolize the desire we have to open all the doors that we are going to find throughout life, to get all the opportunities that are offered to us.

Avada kedavra

Avada Kedabra Tattoo

Surely the first thing you have thought when seeing this tattoo or reading this spell has been Lord Voldermort murdering Harry's parents or even Cedric. It is normal, since the result of this spell (one of the three prohibited) is death of the person to whom the curse is directed.

Appears when Alastor Moody presents the Unforgivable Curses (Avada Kedavra, Crucio and Imperio) and kills a poor (but terrible) spider who was in a bad place and at a bad time.

The symbology of this spell is not very broad. The basic reason for getting it tattooed is that it is one of the main spells of Harry Potter, With which you show how much you like it. In addition, there are those who, despite their wickedness, end up becoming fond of those who cannot be named. It's up to you.

I await a guardian

Patronum Tattoo

This is my favorite spell and the one of many that I have asked. The reason for tattooing it is the same as before: it is a key spell in the saga Harry Potter. Manage to drive away the dementors and the Lethifolds. To achieve this, the spell needs the happiness that is achieved through the best memories of the wizard or witch who emits it.

The first time someone casts the Patronum charm is on a train. Remus Lupine does it, to scare away a dementor who was looking for the prisoner Sirius Black who escaped in the third movie.

I think that, in this case, the symbolism of a Patronum tattoo is very clear. It represents a series of happy memories of the person who has been tattooed. These memories will help you stay afloat through tough times and protect you when needed.

expelliarmus

Expelliarmus Tattoo

It is a defense enchantment, since manages to disarm the opponent from the object with which he is defending, usually the wand. What's more, can also return opponent's spells, as it happened when, in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Harry protects himself against Voldemort's Avada Kedavra.

It is first used in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, when Severus Snape uses it against Gilderoy Lockhart in a duel in front of his students.

As for the meaning of getting an Expelliarmus tattooed, It is about symbolizing that you are going to take power away from someone who tries to manipulate you.

What do you think of these spells for a tattoo? Do you think they have a different meaning than the one written? Feel free to comment and pay attention to the second part of spell tattoos. There are still more.
