These type of crosses predate Christianity and are known to have many names and symbolisms. In addition to the Square Cross, also known as the Equal armed cross, the Minoan Cross, The Greek Cross, the Cosmic Cross, The Celtic Cross , the Peaceful cross and Balanced cross.

Found far and wide throughout Eurasia and the Americas, there’s no way of knowing for sure what this type of cross represented to all cultures and there are many different meanings recorded in history.

Some interpretations we’ve uncovered record it is said to represent either the four elements, seasons, winds, or directions: north, south, east and west.

The cross has also be used to represent the union between male and female and in some cultures, it is said to be indicative of the human desire to know & experience the unfolding mystery of life. Sometimes embodying the concept of unification between ethereal and material.

It was common for this cross be worn at the level of the heart so that the wearer is intimate with the 4-fold concepts the cross symbolises.
