The circle is considered a symbol of good fortune, signifying completeness, wholeness and perfection. This may have originated from the sun's apparent circle around the earth. It was also believed that evil spirits could not cross a circle and as a result, rings, wreaths, and other circular decorations and adornments were created. Believe it or not, accordingly lipstick was invented because of the circle. People thought evil spirits could enter the body through the mouth, thus started painted a red circle around the mouth so evil spirits could not pass through into the body.
