Inverted crosses are fine too.
The inverted cross is called St. Peters Cross, Peter did not feel he was worthy of being crucified like Jesus so he asked the Romans to crucify himn upside down.
Hollywood turned the inverted cross into a satanic symbol.

A cross with four equal sides usually symbolizes the four
directions, East, South, West, and North.
The one with a longer middle is more like the human form, and symbolizes Christ's crucifixion.
People can use these crosses to mean whatever they want of
course.

It sounds like you're describing an Orthodox cross.
