Shopping on line can be easy, simple and save you lots of money. It can also take a lot of your time, frustrate you, and result in unwanted purchases. Now the same can be said for regular high street shopping, but with the vast opportunity presented by the Internet it will pay you to spend a few minutes reading this and understanding how to better optimize your Solar Wheel shopping experience:
1. Compare - without doubt the biggest advantage that the Solar Wheel offers shoppers today is the ability to compare thousands of Solar Wheel at a time. This is a great thing, but not necessarily all the time! Too much can be daunting at times so take advantage of the great comparison sites and where possible let them do the hard work for you.
2. Research - if it has been said it will be on the internet. Ignorance is no longer a justifiable reason for buying the wrong thing. Take the time to research in detail everything that you could possible want to know about
3. Testimonials - don't know anybody that has bought a Solar Wheel? Wrong! If the Solar Wheel is good the internet will let you know. Use the Internet as a friend and get testimonials before you buy.
4. Questions - Got a question about Solar Wheel then search the Forums, FAQ's, Blogs etc. Don't be afraid to ask .....
5. Reputation - Never heard of the company selling Solar Wheel? Don't worry, no reason why you should know every company in the world, but you know someone that does! Use the internet to find out what people are saying about Solar Wheel and build up a picture of their reputation for sales, returns, customer service, delivery etc.
6. Returns - still worried that even after all of the above your Solar Wheel wont be what you want? Check out the returns policy. There is so much competition now that someone, somewhere is bound to offer the terms that you are comfortable with.
7. Feedback - happy with your Solar Wheel then let people know, after all you are depending on others people input in your buying decision, so why not give a little back.
8. Security - check for the yellow padlock on the Solar Wheel site before you buy, and the s after http:/ /i.e. https:// = a secure site
9. Contact - got a question about Solar Wheel, or want to leave a comment then check out the sites contact page. Reputable companies have them and respond.
10. Payment - ready to pay for your Solar Wheel, then use your credit card or PayPal! Be aware of companies that don't accept them, there may be genuine reasons but given the huge amount of choice you have when buying online there is no reason at all not to buy via credit card or PayPal.
The
sun cross, a
cross inside a circle, is one of the oldest and most universal religious symbolism, and a popular
neopaganism solar symbol. It is also known as the
suncross,
solar cross,
sun wheel,
sunwheel,
sun discIn neopaganism, the terms
sun cross and
sun wheel are sometimes also used to refer to
swastikas,
fylfots and Celtic crosses, understood as cognate symbols.
Prehistoric use
The
Neolithic symbol combining cross and circle is the simplest conceivable representation of the union of opposed polarities in the Western world. Crossed circles scratched on stones have been recovered from Paleolithic cave sites in the Pyrenees. At the most famous megalithic site in Scotland,
Callanish, crossing avenues of standing stones extend from a circle. Scratched into stone or painted on pottery, as on that of the
Samara culture, the crossed-circle symbol appears in such diverse areas as the Pyrenees in Old Europe, the Anatolia, Mesopotamia, the Iranian plateau, and the cities of Mohenjo-daro and Harappa in the Indus River valley. It may be compared to the yin and yang symbol of the Eastern world.
In the prehistoric religion of
Bronze Age Europe, crosses in circles appear frequently on artefacts identified as cult items, for example the "miniature standard" with an amber inlay that shows a cross shape when held against the light, dating to the
Nordic Bronze Age, kept in the National Museum of Denmark,
Copenhagen. entry at the
Nebra sky disk exhibition site (landesmuseum-fuer-vorgeschichte-halle.de) The Bronze Age symbol has also been connected with the
spoked
chariot wheel, which at the time was four-spoked (compare the Linear B ideogram 243 "wheel" ), a technological innovation that reached Europe in the mid 2nd millennium BC, and which in the context of the Sun chariot may also have had a "solar" connotation.

Variants include a six-spoked wheel, a central empty circle, and a second circle with twelve spokes surrounding the four-spoked one.Image:Scheibenkopfnadeln.jpg], dating to the first half of the 2nd millennium BC, their circular heads are incised with crosses.
Historical use

images of Jesus with what some interpret as a sun cross Halo (religious iconography). (It is usually interpreted as the Christian cross inscribed in a plain halo.)
Contemporary tribal cultures

Southeastern tribes Native Americans in the United States a symbol of both the sun and fire.
Modern symbolism
The sun cross proper most commonly represents the
sun, and the four quadrants the four seasonal cycles of the year. In astronomy, a similar astronomical symbol is used to represent the
Earth while the symbol for the Sun is a circle with a central dot.
Neopaganism
Along with other ancestral symbols, the sun cross is also used as a symbol by Heathenry and Asatru adherents in particular as an attempt at reconstruction of ancient Germanic paganism and
Slavic peoples (
Native Polish Church) pre-Christian religion and culture.
