What does cloud symbolism stand for?

Answer 1

Clouds are formless manifestations of water in gaseous form. Since clouds are water we must understand that water represents very powerful emotion able to create or to destroy, and either or, in creation and in death water remains fluid, it never becomes fixed. Clouds are the mists of heaven and earth which represent the divine thought of "God" coming forth from source with great desire to manifest the unmanifest. In this we know that when we observe the formlessness of clouds in continual shift of movement and shape, it is as if we are looking into the pools of heaven, the sky, and seeing the universal possibilities of thought, movement and form.

Clouds represent divinity, pure thought and pure being, emptiness and everything. Clouds are creations of polar opposites existing as one in such a freedom of being they never become fixed in form, just like the flow of water clouds tell us to be free from everything yet as pure as divinity. Clouds are dreams that make us ponder everything we don't understand but are designed to search out. Therefore clouds are creations way of telling us never to settle in one thing or another because in doing so we become fixed and fixed objects always resist the natural flow of universal fluidity. Be like a cloud, free and in heaven always shifting form and always moving through the skies of infinite space and timeless wisdom. To see and contemplate the clouds is to learn oneself just as it is in all of the elements of nature.

Answer 2

Whatever the person who got the tattoo wants it to mean.

Depending on type of clouds it could be anything from "Ooooooh pretty!" to warning of a stormy personality, clouds could symbolize heaven and their faith that they will get there, or their faith that a departed friend has.

The person could be a pilot, showing off their favorite view, or a stormchaser showing off theirs.

Unless tied to a particular subculture tattoos mean what their bearers want them to mean, no more, no less.
