Ash Wednesday Cross Tattoo

For those whom want their Ash Wednesday religious services reflected in Second Life, a few builders have made some ash cross marks, which are actually avatar tattoos. Among them, a freebie one by Edd Thor.

Tattoo layers are required. A selection of ten. Ash Wednesday is observed by some denominations as the beginning of the time of preparation for Easter. A cross made of ashes may be placed on the forehead, perhaps with the words, "Remember you are dust, and to dust you shall return." To the best of my knowledge, the church clip art from which these crosses are derived are public domain. If this is an error, please notify me (Edd Thor). Please distribute these as you wish throughout the Second Life communities.

The tattoo can be found on Marketplace (Here).

Via Crucis

Here is another site you might like to visit before Easter. You are invited to Via Crucis: a depiction of the last journey of Jesus on the way to the cross remembered on Good Friday of this solemn week. It will be here until April 15 in case you miss it during this busy week. It is interactive and there are avatars to pick up and you may participate in each station as you walk the way.

Sicily Zapatero sent me this invitation:

The Way of the Cross. Beginning April 5th, 2012 at 1pm SLT.

The Passion of Christ presented as a 3D immersive experience. All are welcome to visit the Stations of the Cross as never before, in this self guided exhibit where the power of avatar identity is felt. The Exhibit will open to the public at 1pm slt April 5. through April 15th . Presented by Sicily Zapatero & Eros Boa. A Heart2Art production.
