It is still used as a symbol for St. Peter (who was crucified upside-down). However it has become associated with satanic groups because it is viewed as an opposite for Christianity's cross.

Where did black veil brides get their symbol?

To be honest, I HAVE NO IDEA. I've been a fan of BVB for 4 years... But here's what I personally think, We all know that BVB is not Anti-Christ. In fact, they're religious. But they're making their band appear Anti-Christ. Well if you're talking about the upside down star symbol, they got that from the Satanic Goat God a.k.a Satan.


What happens when you flip a crucifix cross over?

An inverted (flipped/upside-down) crucifix will become the Cross of St Peter.St Peter was apparently crucified upside down. It meant nothing more than anuprightcrucifix.However, some people will claim that an inverted cross is "evil" and "anti-Christ" or that it's the sign of the devil.The Vatican denies this and strongly points out to Catholics that it is not a satanic symbol.More on that in the related links below.
