The Latin for southern cross, Crux , means cross. It represents the brightest constellation in the south of the equator. The Crux also serves as a national or distinctive symbol in many southern countries. In the Southern Hemisphere, the Southern Cross is frequently used for navigation in much the same way that Polaris is used in the Northern Hemisphere. It guides the travelers home safely and becomes a sign of blessing for the voyagers.
