The Pentagram

The Pentagram is a symbol of a star encased in a circle always with 5 points,one pointing upwards.
Each point is a symbol of the elements,the upward point sybolizes the element of spirit and the other four point represent the elements of earth,air,fire,and water.
These elements are very important to us wiccans as we invoke them(`call the quarters',as it is known)for protection during our rituals.
The Pentagram is not a symbol of evil but one of protection,and to wear a pentagram is to say you connect with the Goddess and the God and the Earth.
