celtic pentagram brass earrings

These beautiful brass Celtic Pentagram Trinity earrings are 4cm long. The Pentagram or pentacle is a five pointed star commonly used as a symbol of the interaction between the five elements. The upward point of the star is representative of the spirit and the other four points represent the elements of earth, air, fire, and water. The pentagram is also representative of the five points on the human body. In many pagan religions and followers of Wicca, the pentagram or pentacle is the symbol of the earth or the Goddess and is used in sacred ceremony in circle-casting rituals. The Trinity Knot above the Pentagram is also known as the Aria Knot is formed from the intersecting lines of three arcs. This knot represents the Trinity, three aspects from one unity. The symmetrical lines suggest balanced flow between the three aspects. These are the harmonious connections between three related aspects of life, such as body, mind, spirit or the past, present, future or the earth, heavens and underworld. In ancient Celtic Goddess lore, this symbolises the triple Goddess as seen as the maiden, mother, and wise old woman. Wearing a pentagram charm is believed to be a potent symbol of protection, empowerment, health and good fortune.
