Jackal - The jackal is associated with death as it is known to feed on corpses at night time in particular. In many cultures it has very negative associations even though it is a popular choice of tattoo.
Jaguar - Jaguars have long been associated with otherworldly powers by ancient cultures in Central America. The Americans Indians regarded them as 'power animals' or having shamanistic qualities.
Japanese Dragon - Dragons in Eastern cultures have completely different meanings to those in the West. They are thought to embody the Yin Yang energy and possess wisdom. As tattoos, they can be depicted as passive and benevolent or aggressive showing claws and sharp teeth. There are so many variations of the Japanese Dragon as a style of tattoo and they can be placed in most places but mostly on the back, upper arm, forearm and chest.
Joker - The Joker is associated with playing cards and is related to 'The Fool' in tarot cards. As a playing card they usually have special powers and can be used in play or not as in 'Jokers wild'. Even though the Joker is seen as someone foolish they are also quite intelligent.
