Small Celtic Cross Pendent
|
SMALL CELTIC CROSSThe Celtic cross consists of a circle imposed upon the center of the Latin cross. The shaft of the Celtic cross, represents the world axis, spiritual bridge between heaven and earth. The crossbar eventually began to be added to t he shaft creating the familiar cross which has historically been considered a male symbol. The four sides of the cross divide the world into four directions, four elements, four seasons, and separate heaven and earth.The circle is a female symbol representi ng the unity of all life. When placed at the crossbar it represents divine light and spiritual radiance. Thus the cross within the circle unites the principles of female and male. The point at the center represents the most High God, the "motionlessmover" about which all life revolves. The same point is also the place of Jesus' heart on the cross, the source for divine love everlasting.
