Virtually every culture has its own sign of eternity.
In Armenia, in love with the sun, it called “arevakhach” (արևախաչ), which literally means “a solar cross” in Armenian. It looks very much like a celestial star – round, helical, having six or eight rays. Wheel of Eternity, as a rule, symbolizes life, fertility and fire. Depending on the direction in which the rays of the sign look, either to the right or to the left, it can also represent  an active or a passive beginning. Since ancient times, Armenians considered this symbol the most powerful of all the charms and hung it over the infant cradle.

Moreover, the circle, like the rotating lines, symbolized perfection. Architects thus expressed the concept of eternal, heavenly life.

The sign of eternity in Armenia can be found everywhere: on architectural monuments and on the walls of churches, on frescoes and miniatures. This symbol carved on khachkars, and its image can also be found on carpets and decorations.
