Crucifix Cross
Cross Tattoo Meaning – What Do You Know About Cross Tattoo Meaning
The cross tattoo meaning centers around the culture of its origins, the time frame of its original design, and the personality of the person who has one applied. While the cross tattoo symbolism is mainly regarded by people as being of religious origin, it actually has roots in the Pagan world. The cross tats meaning has a variety of origins; the people who choose them usually do so for the same reasons. Those reasons are based on religions, traditions, cultures, and simple liking of the intricate designs.
Latin Cross Tattoo
Cross tatoo meaning for those of the Christian Faith, centers on the crucifixion of Christ. His death on the cross, and resurrection are the backbone of their belief systems. The Latin cross skin image meaning forms around its structured design of three equal points of the cross placed on a long downward pointing point. This cross tattoo is usually depicted as rough wood, and is empty; unless the person chooses to add embellishments of a draped cloth, or a crown of thorns hanging from the top point. Sometimes the cross tattoo meaning is shown with the sign that declared Jesus the King of the Jews. Meaning of these tattoos is further carried out by depicting Christ still hanging on the cross; this is usually worn by more orthodox Doxology, such as those of the Catholic faith, and features a cross that is a crucifix.
Celtic Cross Tats
The Celtic cross tattoo is based on the Druidic version of the Pagan cross which pre-dates the Latin cross. The Celtic cross is designed with four equal points, on two cross names, with a circle placed at the crossing point. The four equal points stand for the natural elements of earth,wind, water, and fire, and the circle for the never-ending circle of life. The cross tattoo is based on the belief that the life and earth are entwined, and are natural in the elements of nature. They are considered a powerful protection symbol, which is doubled when a dragon is placed as a part of the Celtic Knots that form a design that runs through, around, and over the points. Like a maze of beautiful lines that have no beginning, and no end.
St.Andrews (Saltire) Cross Tats Symbolism
The meaning of the Sal-tire lays in the belief that St. Andrew the first called of the Disciples of Christ, did not feel worthy to be crucified on a cross like the one that bore Christ, so in 69 AD, he was crucified by the Roman’s in Patras on a cross in the shape of an X. The Saltire, St. Andrews Cross, is the Flag of Scotland. In 832 AD, King Angus Mac Fergus was in a battle for North Umbria, and it is said St. Andrew appeared to Angus in a vision, and on the battlefield the next day a Saltire, the X shape cross appeared in the sky and spurred on the Scots, and Picts, and caused the other army to flee in fear. Thereafter the St.Andrews cross was the emblem of a free Scotland. The valiant courage of the Scottish people is depicted in the cross tats meaning of the St. Andrews cross.
No matter which cross tats explanation speaks to you, each one can be a thing of beauty when designed and applied by a true artisan of the art of tattooing.

The Crucifix Killer $4.99 In a derelict cottage in L.A, a young woman is found savagely murdered. Naked, strung from two wooden posts, the skin has been ripped from her face – while she was still alive. On the nape of her neck is carved a strange double-cross: the signature of a psychopath known as the Crucifix Killer. But that’s not possible. Because, two years ago, the Crucifix Killer was caught and executed. Could this be the work of a copycat? Or is Homicide Detective Robert Hunter forced to face the unthinkable? Is the real Crucifix Killer still out there, taunting Hunter with his inability to catch him? Robert Hunter and his rookie partner are about to enter a nightmare beyond imagining . . . |
