SYMBOLISM OF THE CROSS - The cross is a symbol of spirituality and healing. The four points of the cross represent the self, nature, wisdom, and the higher power or being. It is associated with transition, balance, faith, unity, moderation, hope and life. It is one of the earliest Christian symbols, which in the broadest sense symbolizes the Christian religion or in particular the death of Christ. There are many varieties, some of which have a specific meaning. The empty cross, for example, reminds Christians of the resurrection, while the crucifixion with the body of Jesus reminds us of his sacrifice. The Greek cross, which has the same shoulders, is a symbol of faith, hope and love. The triumphal cross with a circle represents the reign of Christ over the world. The symbolism of the Celtic cross, especially the one-sided one, reveals the human desire to know and experience the unfolding mystery of life. He offers four ways to ascend - objective knowledge of Self, Nature, Wisdom and God. The Celtic cross can also be seen as a compass. When we are thrown by the stormy seas of life, it can reorient our focus and move our thoughts in the right direction. By affirming the symbolic meanings of the cross, we place our spirit on a solid foundation.
