A normal <strong>Latin cross<\/strong> that&#8217;s been <strong>turned horizontal<\/strong> (Instead of the normal vertical).<\/p>\n<p>\nIt&#8217;s rather interesting to look at, <strong>and it makes you take a second glance<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><h2>But what is the significance?<\/h2>\n<p>\nWell, a lot of people in the stores say it&#8217;s just a <strong>designer&#8217;s preference<\/strong>. A <strong>style<\/strong>. A <strong>statement<\/strong>. Something unique and different, that&#8217;s all.<\/p>\n<p><h2>But others say there&#8217;s a more deeper meaning&#8230;<\/h2>\n<p>\nThey say that it&#8217;s <strong>a token of Jesus\u2019 finished work<\/strong>. Salvation. After all, he did <strong>lay down his cross<\/strong> for mankind. <\/p>\n<p>\nOthers say that it&#8217;s in reference to the <strong>Nordic cross<\/strong>. Scandinavian countries show the cross sideways on their <strong>flag<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>\nSome also say that it&#8217;s a portrayal of the earth and life itself. <strong>Humanity.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\nStill, some do say that&#8217;s it&#8217;s a darker image, one of <strong>a fallen cross and failed Christianity.<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>\nSo the sideways cross can really be whatever you want it to be. After all, we all have our own <strong>diverse opinions<\/strong> and <strong>view points<\/strong>. <\/p>\n<p>Some will find them <strong>offensive<\/strong>, others will <strong>respect them<\/strong> and regard them as <strong>sacred. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><h2>It&#8217;s all in what you believe.<\/h2>\n<p>\n<strong>Take a peek<\/strong> at some of the <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/1To6hlA\">sideways cross pendants<\/a> here:<\/p>\n<p>\n<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/1To6hlA\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jewelry-secrets.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/The-Sideways-Cross-Pendant-Necklace-Jewelry.jpg\" alt=\"The Sideways Cross Pendant Necklace Jewelry\" title=\"The Sideways Cross Pendant Necklace Jewelry\" width=\"640\" height=\"1650\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-15299\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jewelry-secrets.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/The-Sideways-Cross-Pendant-Necklace-Jewelry.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.jewelry-secrets.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/The-Sideways-Cross-Pendant-Necklace-Jewelry-116x300.jpg 116w, https:\/\/www.jewelry-secrets.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/The-Sideways-Cross-Pendant-Necklace-Jewelry-397x1024.jpg 397w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Plus, you can also get <strong>sideways crosses<\/strong> in <strong>rings <\/strong>and <strong>bracelets <\/strong>as well.<\/p>\n<p>\n<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/1To6hlA\">Get all your sideways cross jewelry HERE.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\nAnd <strong>wear it however you want.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\n<strong>Cheers! :)<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Sideways?
