hey everyone

so, ive always wanted a dove tatooed on me somewhere, symbolizing peace and a journey ahead "wings' and everything..
anyway

im jewish. i wasn't sure if its always associated with christianity because i would never get a tattoo of a dove if it is

so, does it just mean peace, or is it the "christian symbol" of peace
 
A dove is a Christian symbol for the Holy Spirit.

As a Christian symbol it is usually (well... often) displayed in front of a background of a scallop shell.
