<p>@Jerry is right, the placement of the guild's symbol is <em>wherever the mage wants it</em>. If you remember in <strong>Volume 1 Chapter 2</strong>, Mirajane was asking Lucy if she was sure she wants the symbol placed on her hand, <em>implying that mages have a choice as to where they can put it</em>.</p>

<p>As to how some dragon slayers have their guild's symbol in their shoulders, that is mostly coincidental and if there was any special meaning to it, <em>it was not focused upon nor explained throughout the series</em>, at least in the manga, if I recall correctly.</p>

<p>I wanted to know why their emblems are on their shoulder. I realized it days ago. If any of you have any answers or theories, please tell me. I would appreciate it a lot.</p>

I assume it's only a design choice from the author. As far as I remember, the emblem is put wherever the user wants to put it.

@Jerry is right, the placement of the guild's symbol is *wherever the mage wants it*. If you remember in **Volume 1 Chapter 2**, Mirajane was asking Lucy if she was sure she wants the symbol placed on her hand, *implying that mages have a choice as to where they can put it*.

As to how some dragon slayers have their guild's symbol in their shoulders, that is mostly coincidental and if there was any special meaning to it, *it was not focused upon nor explained throughout the series*, at least in the manga, if I recall correctly.
