The Koi Fish Tattoo And Success

Koi Fish Tattoo

Koi  fish are prominent subjects in the Japanese culture and also in Japanese tattoos. The term nishikigoi in Japanese means "colored carp" and refers to the mysterious and delightful realm of koi fish. The Japanese admired these fish not only for their beauty but for their ability to transform the observer into another state.

When you consider the scales of a fish, and how light gives them a shimmering almost ethereal glow, those glistening scales, with a small shift in perception, can take the form of a sky full of dancing stars or a beautiful sequined dress or a bundle of shimmering treasure coins. So you see how fish can open up the imagination, allow you to think laterally and see beyond the obvious, qualities which have been the benchmark for good business.
