This double sided amulet comes ready to wear on |
The Celtic Pentacle The pentacle has been worn as a powerful protection symbol for thousands of years. This Celtic Pentacle has been handcrafted using Excelsior pewter and is double sided. Associated in turn with Magic, Paganism, and Christian mysticism, its earliest connections were with the worship of the Goddess, from whose sacred five petaled apple blossoms and seeds the symbol may have been derived. Like the circle it is considered a protective design because of its continuously connecting points. This pentacle has been called the symbol of man, truth, and completion. Alchemists paired the elements of the earth to those of man - flesh and bones to earth, blood to water, breath to air, body heat to fire, and the soul to ether. The five points also correspond to the five stages of life - birth, puberty, marriage, rest from labors, and death. This design incorporates Celtic knotwork into the pentacle to make a truly powerful talisman. The knotwork increases the meditative quality of the design, as well as its protective abilities. Worn with respect, no negativity may penetrate the defense of this pentacle. CPN |
