Someone with a Celtic cross tattoo often intends to represent their christian faith along with their Irish (or scottish) ethnicity.
The ring around the cross symbolizes the eternity of God's love.
It entirely depends on the context, it has been used in context of pagan groups and Christianity. Some pagan contexts can be Virgin, Mother, and Crone. Or Life, Death and Rebirth. For Christianity it represents the trinity of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

A crucifix, a cross, an angel, etc. represent good. A serpent, a demon, etc. represent evil.

The significance of an upside down cross and the star of David with a circle around it is centered around satanic worship. In satanic worship the Christian religion is mocked with the symbols of that religion.
it`s meaning to truths people and to love people
Sounds like a Celtic Cross.

The pre-Christian version was a circle with an equal-armed cross internal to the circle, called the "sun cross", representing the sun. When the Celts became Christian, the cross was Christianized. The life-giving sun was compared with Christ.
One goes in the center of the cross and the other four go at the four ends of the cross. There's usually a "clue" in the design of the cross. For example, our candle this year has a Celtic Cross, so there's a circle in the middle and a nail goes in the center of that cirle. There are also half-cirlces on the ends to guide us as to where the nails should go.
A Celtic cross is a symbol that combines the cross with a ring surrounding the intersection. It is the characteristic symbol of Celtic Christianity, though the symbol has older, pre-Christian origins. Such crosses formed a major part of Celtic Art. This design is also referred to as the Irish Cross, or as the Cross of Iona. The exact history of this symbol is slightly ambiguous, and you may get a different answer from everyone that you might ask, but I like the theory that the inner circle is said to represent eternity, and the endlessness of God's own love. Besides the inner circle, the element that distinguishes the Celtic cross from other crosses is the intricate knot work that can be found carved into the stone. One of the most common knots you'll see is the Trinity knot. Other than actually going to an ancient church in Ireland, a great way to see the beauty of these crosses is in ornamental replicas and also Celtic jewelry: http://www.irishcelticjewels.com/crosses.htm
From the center of the circle, draw like a cross from there.
The symbol for planet earth is a simple cross within a circle (like a 4 spoke wheel),not to be confused with the Celtic Cross (origin: Druid Sun Worship) or the Ku Klux Klan (origin: "Odin's Cross"
You may mean the symbol for male, if so then the symbol for female is a circle patch with a cross.
The type of cross you mentioned is sometimes also called the St. Georges Cross. There are many variations on the theme. The circle in the centre represents infinity. Circles and shapes derived from circles (such as the "fish" symbol": two bisecting circles) are a constant and recurring theme throughout Christianity, as well as many other faiths. They are symbolic of peace and the great cycle of life, death and rebirth. This particular type of cross is widely associated with Roman Catholicism.

What I think the religion of the Celtic cross came from is probably the Pagan Druidic religion.
