In
Conclusion , I think most of it is open to interpretation by anyone
, the the jewllery of a person holds it's own meaning and significance
to that person. One thing is for sure is Idol has an obsession with crosses
, most of which could only be explained by him . You could maybe some time
in the future we maybe so lucky to get details from Billy.

ABOUT
THE CYBERPUNK RING . It is a cross with 4 squares
represented.
It 's the same ring he's been wearing for years as well as the design he had on the back of his head, I'm sure you have pics of it "Cyberpunk". Here is what it means in the best way I can explain it. The cross is an Ancient Symbol used by Persians, Hindus and Greeks who looked upon it as a symbol of the equinoxes and the solstices, in the belief that at certain seasons of the year, the sun was symbolically crucified upon these imaginary celestial angles. The 4 "Squares" around the cross can have different meanings: the elements, earth,air, fire and water; another is salt, sulpur, mercury and Azoth, used in making the Philosopher's Stone in Alchemy; North, South, East and West coming together in theMiddle of the cross, representing the descent of Spirit into Matter; The 4 "Squares" can also represent the human body: bones, muscles, nerves and arteries. The Cross is very symbolic, and depending on what your beliefs are, can represent many different things to many different people. Hebrews also laid out stones in this fashion with the Hebrew Letters "INRI", JHVH, representing Christ. |
