What does the “13” mean?
***********
Who knows as there seems to be many explanations...
snip.....
It’s a symbol of luck, but also entails misfortune before a greater reward.
An occult symbol of resurrection and re-birth, i.e. Christ, anti-Christ, Lucifer, the phoenix, One, return of the messiah, God’s incarnation in human form, the visiting of the alien-human hybrid that put life on Earth, Jesus
GOOD LUCK LIKE LUCKY 13
The 13th letter of the alphabet is M . In outlaw biker culture a tatt or patch of the #13 usually means drugs as in Meth or Pot. RUBs and the like often say it stands for Motorcycle.
A tattooist gets a number 13 tattooed on them once they’ve been in the business for 13years and its a great mark of respect when a tattoist has earnt the right to wear the number 13.
Friday the 13th was originally the day of good luck not bad luck.
Traditional tattoo symbols have kind of lost their meaning, and a certain symbol can mean almost anything. 13 can mean bad luck, it can be associated with the gang MS-13, or it could just be their lucky number.
