When you get ink permanently etched onto your skin, you want to make sure it's in the shape of something you can live with for a while. Actually, it needs to be something you will love forever. Choosing a tattoo is a tough decision, considering the 'Bye, Felicia' attitude that kicks most body-altering trends to the curb within a few months. (Remember 3-D nail art?)

Your tattoo needs to be something that isn't just reflective of a current obsession, but rather, something that is inherently part of who you are -- something that is just you.

And what better guide to who you are than the sign under which you entered the world? While you may not obsessively check your horoscope every morning, you have to admit that it can be mysteriously accurate when it comes to your personality traits. (If you're giving your screen the skeptical side-eye, it's probably because you're a stubborn Taurus.)

We tapped New Orleans-based psychic, astrologist and medium Cari Roy to figure out what kind of tattoos best suit each zodiac sign. Even if you don't believe in horoscopes, prepare to be starry-eyed over these oh-so-pretty zodiac-inspired tattoos.

Born: March 21 - April 19

According to Roy, Aries is the most animated sign of the zodiac. Explosive, bold, empowering tattoos will suit this fiery sign. Roy suggests a tattoo inspired by a female warrior, like Athena, or a shooting star as an homage to Aries' fierce spirit.
