Celtic Pentacle – The Venus Star Amulet

Description

The Pentacle has served as a primary symbol of protection for millennia, deeply rooted in the worship of the Earth Mother Goddess. It is believed the symbol was first inspired by the five-petaled apple blossom and the secret pentagram hidden within the seeds of the fruit. Ancient astrologers further solidified its sacred status by tracing the “Venus Star” within the heavenly motions of the planet.

This specific design utilizes continuous Celtic knotwork to reinforce the Pentacle’s protective nature; because the lines are unbroken, they act as a barrier that holds evil influences at bay. Alchemists link this symbol to the five elements of Man, connecting the soul to the “Ether” and the physical body to the Earth, Air, Fire, and Water. It is a meditative piece that represents the five stages of life: Birth, Puberty, Marriage, Rest from Labor, and Death.
