sabrina_gu Posted March 30, 2008 at 03:59 AM Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 at 03:59 AM it is 祥(xiang2), in Chinese, the 祥 can made up a phrase "吉祥". That means the propitious, or lucky. So the tattoo shows a wish of luck. 祥 is one of the most favourate characters to chinese people, the others like 喜, 福, 禄, 寿,财,吉,祥 and the like.
