1. The cross. In Christianity, the cross represents the life, death, burial, and resurrection of Christ. It also signifies the identification with Christ and the acceptance of even martyrdom as one's fate.
2. The pentacle. This is a variation of the 5-pointed star and is significant to Wicca and other witchcraft traditions. The 5 points represent the 5 guardians or energies -- air, earth, fire, water, and spirit.
3. Forehead markings. These vary by the exact faith and situation. Certain Christians take a mark of ashes on Ash Wednesday. This represents the burial of Christ and the surrendering of one's will. In Hindi culture, a small dot may represent marriage, while elongated marks show that someone (of either gender) has been to the temple.
4. Native American Patterns. These may represent unity, harmony, coexistence, and life with the Spirit.
