The pent is the most misunderstood symbol we use. Many people think
it has something to do with the Christian devil. It is far older than he is.
A similar symbol is used in Satanic religions, i've been told, but they turn it
upside down. I have no idea what it symbolizes for them. For pagan
purposes, the five arms of the star represent Earth, Air, Fire, Water, and Spirit. They are surrounded by a circle, representing the wheel of the birth, death,rebirth cycle. Many aspects of my beliefs are cyclical in nature, and it can represent any of these. The turning of the Wheel of the Year is one example. Another is the sacred circle I cast around me before performing magical work.

The Celtic Oval may mean many things to many people.
To me, it symbolizes the eternal nature of love. And, also, to some
extent, eternity itself.

The Trinity Knot, also known as the Triskele, symbolizes the Triple nature
of the Goddess. In her three aspects, she is Maiden, Mother, and Crone.
The Maiden represents the beauty and grace of youth. The Mother is the
nurturing side, giving us all that we need. The Crone represents the wisdom
and love of a grandmother. Unlike our current society, in the past, the aged were honored for their wisdom, and I still see the Crone as that wise Grandmother.

The Duet Knot symbolizes the Goddess. Powerful, loving, and forever
feminine. My favorite necklace bears this knot, and I tend to think of it
as a symbol of all things feminine.
