Possibly the Worlds most recognized and used symbol of our history.
The Iron Cross, The Flanged Thwarts, The Solar Cross and of course the Swastika

This has always been a symbol of power and positivity in our history
unfortunately due to 1 regime this has tarnished the symbols true meaning.

The Iron Cross referred to the Sun and its power. The Sun for many centuries was worshiped as a God and unknowingly to most nowadays religions still is the main symbol of god in their religion.

This symbol also referred to strength, virility, masculinity among many other positive associations.

Hitler came along and used the Symbol as a symbol of change which usually relates to chaos. Which history tells the rest how this symbol is used and referred to as evil.

Society needs to start understanding it is how a symbol is used and what purpose a group is using a certain symbol before hating on a positive spiritual movement.

The Iron Cross will always represent a higher power

But who uses it will be the judge.
