Does anyone know if there's a specific meaning behind the cover of Blue Blood?

The covers for the other X/X Japan albums are all pretty straightforward and match the mood/content of the songs, but Blue Blood's a mystery to me.  It's an X with... tree branches?  Broken pieces of something floating around in blue blood?  Are the branches coming from the ends of the X intended to make it look like a swastika?

The best explanation I can think of is that branch things are torn veins, which spilled blue blood to make the blue background, but the design is so abstract that I don't know if that's what was intended.

I think it's just stylished x with veins and blue blood on the background like you said. I really don't think there's deeper meaning.  8)
