Dice Tattoos

Would love to have these on my neck, but more than likely on my arm or maybe the top of my foot (with cards on the other).





Although sometimes referred to as a "lucky" symbol, or one of good fortune, dice are often featured in tattoo designs that highlight the perils of gambling, such as in "Man's Ruin". Dice are often featured with other vices, including playing cards, drugs and alcohol, guns, race horses and women of easy virtue. (1)

The expression, "To roll the dice", implies taking a risk in which the outcome is unknown and beyond the control of the individual. It implies that the results of the die being cast is left entirely to fate and chance. Similarly, the expression, "The die are cast", means that once the dice have been set in motion and rolled, the outcome is indeterminable. (1)
