Cygan Czarwonica Meri Scubas_girl oh, okay. I want one, but i want to know what it represents and the meaning to it before i go ahead and buy one. The Pentacle represents the five elements that make up life; earth, air, fire, water, and spirit. They're linked together with a circle, as life moves in circles, and that a circle is often used for protection. Spirit is usually the topmost point, that's why you sometimes see pentacles inverted. Pointing downwards indicates "power unto oneself" where pointing up it symbolizes "power working for a higher goal". Being a religion that based on doing whatever makes you happy, Satanists adopted the inverted pentacle, and thats why you typically dont see it worn around public, if at all.
Pentacles are often worn not only as a statement of faith, but also as a protective amulet, and to remind us that the elements are everywhere, and in everything.
Hope it helped!yes! it helped alot!!! thank you so so so so so so so much!!!! That is very deep. I noticed pagans and wiccans are very deep people. So, when i buy one, make sure that the tip is upright, right?

Also, I used to make my own, any anyone I was friends with that were interested in or on the same path as me got one (like Sparkle Tard. Wonder if she's still got that). They were pretty basic, made of wire and strung on a keyring. To me, they kinda looked like mini pentacle dream catchers 3nodding . Anyways, you kinda need the concentration and patience to string wire around like you were drawing a pentagram (starting with the lower left point and moving to the top point ect.), and I always strung it around twice to make them stand out.
Anyways, if you didnt want to buy one (as the nicer ones can be a bit costly), making one is always an option. I once saw a REALLY pretty one made of a thin cut slice of a tree branch, with the pentagram burned onto it and varnished to keep it nice. Theres so many ways to make them! xp

When alone(or with Wiccan friends) decorate a small box with Wiccan symbols.

I need to make some wiccan/pagan friends and make one. that would be fun. of course, i think i have a friend who will do it with me. She was with me when i did my first spell, it worked wonders for her. She is alway coming up to me and asking for spells to help her destress...she wont use my tea recipies though... stare lol

You do know you need PRIMMSION to cast spells on people and the three rule right? If any spell is cast the caster is hit with the spell effects three times stronger.

That's awesome to hear you have a guardian dragon spirit as well, Nerilaith (Spelling?). I didn't think dragon magick was as popular as it seems to be.
As far as pentacles go, I was just thinking of this question today. One one hand, I would be thrilled to be able to wear one freely, but I dislike the idea of most likely being called a Satanist and possibly physically harassed, as hate crimes are already a possibility in my life. But, I think once I am moved into my own house/apartment (my mother would kill me if I wore one, she already almost caught me with my handmade one) i'll probably wear it openly.
