The Celtic mystique, with its emphasis on the OTHERWORLD, is widely quoted but often little understood. 

The Celts were aware of the Sidh, the tall, shining ones, or the opalescent, lit from within. 

This paganism was subsumed in Christianity and the immediacy of the Otherworld receded. 

The Celtic Cross, with its recognisable shaft, arms and ring, is embellished with intricate decorations which are representations of much older, cruder and very powerful symbols of basic life forces. 

This Cross, like others, has multicultural significance of Protection and Friendship.
