I bought an interlaced celtic cross necklace, I tried searching for it's symbolic meaning but mine doesn't have a circle around... it's just the cross, I found some pictures of crosses like it but not a description or something, could you tell me about it? Something very close to this but the south part more large, like this one: But in the style of the first one... I know the story of the Crosses that have a circle, but what can you tell me about this type of crosses?

Nope. Neo Druidism is decended from an English gentlemen's club. They used a couple of practises from the Druids, but made up a large portion of their material. CR is the real deal, we seek to practise the old ways the same (or as close as possible) to the old ones. well that's what I mean't. Newer Druids but I guess neo isn't the right word to use

@ Snowind The equal armed Celtic cross is a pagan sign. It shows how all is equal. I think the arms are mind, body, spirit, and the Divine, although they can stand for many different things.
If the bottom is longer, it's a pretty Christian cross. It has all the same symbolism, it just looks pretty.
@ Brandonslau Most CR avoid using the term Druid. That's like a whole religion of Wiccan High Priests. Druid is to CR what HP is to Wicca [yay for analogies].

I'm not sure what you mean by that.

A beginner wouldn't call him/herself a High Priest, just like a beginning CR wouldn't call themselves a Druid.
