The Celtic Cross is a powerful symbol used to denote a deeply rooted belief in the power of the Lord in the Christian era and a belief in continuity of life in earlier times. The circle in the center of the cross represents eternity and the holes in the center represent passing from one phase of life to another. The Celtic Cross, as you might imagine, has been a favorite subject of jewelry designers and form makers in recent times. In ancient times, large stone crosses adorned with various symbols were erected. These can be found throughout Ireland and Scotland.
