Pentacle Pendant Sterling Silver Pendant

A five-pointed star (pentagram) with a circle around it is referred to as a pentacle. This circle represents sacred space in which the fifth element of spirit controls the four earthly elements - earth; air; fire; and water. 

In good magic today (with the top pointed upwards) it is often used as a symbol to support transmission and communication with the spirit world. Its five points are often seen to represent the four classic elements of earth, water, air and fire joining with the fifth element of spirit to create life.

The pentacle is a powerful and ancient symbol with deep spiritual meaning. It is often associated with various esoteric and magical traditions, including Wicca, Paganism, and occult practices. The pentacle symbol is typically represented by a five-pointed star enclosed within a circle.

The pentacle carries multiple spiritual significances:

1. Protection: The pentacle is widely recognized as a symbol of protection. The five points of the star represent the elements—earth, air, fire, water, and spirit—and the circle symbolizes unity and wholeness. When worn or displayed, the pentacle is believed to create a protective barrier, warding off negative energies and influences.
2. Elemental Balance: Each point of the pentacle corresponds to one of the five elements, representing their harmonious balance. Wearing the pentacle can serve as a reminder to cultivate balance and harmony within oneself and in relation to the natural world.
3. Connection to Spirituality: The pentacle is seen as a symbol of spirituality, encompassing the spiritual aspects of the self. It represents the integration of the physical and spiritual realms, reminding us of our connection to the divine and the sacred.
4. Magical Properties: The pentacle is often associated with magic and spell work. It is considered a tool for focusing and directing energy during rituals and ceremonies. Wearing the pentacle can enhance one's connection to magickal forces and facilitate the manifestation of intentions and desires.
5. Symbol of Personal Identity: For some, wearing the pentacle is a way of expressing their spiritual beliefs and identity. It can serve as a personal talisman, representing their connection to specific spiritual paths, beliefs, or traditions.
