The story of the cross has many layers. There are different types of crosses, like the Latin cross, the Coptic cross, the Celtic cross etc. each having different symbolic meanings and mystic stories. The Cross Tattoos For Girls present ideas about tattooing a cross on your body. The crosses show the mystical fascination of women who tattoo the ancient symbol on their precious bodies.
The cross tells the story of bravery, about the brave sacrifice that the Prophet went through to save the world. Different sections of Christianity have different types of crosses. For instance, there is the common Latin cross that we see usually on graves. Then, there is also the Celtic cross with its intricate designs and a circle surrounding the outspread arms of the cross. There is the Coptic cross where all the arms are equal in length. It is also interesting to note that before the cross became mainly a Christian symbol, ancient references to the structure of the cross were found in the Egyptian and the Babylonian cultures. The cross to a woman has a special meaning. It represents the fight the feminine had to go through in the dark ages when women were branded as witches and tortured. The cross shows her inner belief that she, at her soul, is an angel, fulfilling her commitment towards good. The pain that she undertakes to tattoo a cross on her body shows the pain that she is ready to go through to connect with her inner angel. We are all a bit of angel and a bit of demon inside. But, it is always our personal choice as to the vibes we connect to, the angelic or the demonic. The brave women shown here have successfully connected to the mysterious angelic within. The cross also means cherishing the memory of a dear beloved who has departed.

But please, lets give Jesus his proper title. He was no mere prophet…He was God incarnate…Historically, speaking, He is the one and only human to ever make this claim…thank you for allowing me to express myself …A.Queen
