Throughout human history, the heart has represented numerous ideas. In ancient Egypt, for example, the heart represented truth, rather than love. The Greeks actually believed that all thought and feelings originated in the heart, completely discounting the brain! Today, though we obviously know that thought (and emotions) dwell only in the brain, we still give the heart sentimental value in terms of feelings. The stylized shape is usually colored red, probably signifying the blood that pumps in and out of the heart every single minute. It also is typically seen as a feminine symbol.
Today, people get heart tattoos in any number of different designs. Each is intended to symbolize something special to each person. Here's a brief description of each heart design:
The Dagger: A heart with a dagger going through it is generally a symbol of betrayal or mistrust.
The Sacred Heart: The sacred heart is surrounded by the Crown of Thorns that Jesus wore on the Cross.
