Tree of Life

Pentacle

Altar Pentacle Tree of Life, diameter approx. 20 cm, made of wood composite, with tree of life and pentagram, black or brown.

This pentacle is a very elaborately handcrafted ritual tool made of wood composite, decorated with a tree of life and a pentagram and available in black or brown. It not only serves as a ritual accessory, but also as an impressive eye-catcher on your altar.

The pentacle is used as a base for other ritual objects or amulets that are to be consecrated or charged.

In many myths , the tree of life symbolises the connection between heaven, earth and the underworld and stands for the world axis. In Germanic/Nordic mythology, it is the ash tree (sometimes also yew, more rarely oak) Yggdrassil or Irminsul.

The pentagram symbolises the harmony of the elements (air, fire, water, earth and ether) and is seen as a symbol of protection.

In its inverted form, it is also known as the Druid's foot, Pythagorean symbol, witch's star or pentagram, to name but a few. A mystical sign, as a symbol of secrets, the perfection of the universe, or as a symbol of protection. It is said that the pentagram was once used by the ancient Celts. In a circle it is called a pentacle, which serves to protect good from evil. But it also symbolises the goddess, wisdom and the power of good.

The pentagram is the strongest magical protective symbol known to our ancestors. It is also used as a spell against evil. In ritual it represents the element earth, and in most traditions the pentacle is associated with the north.

It is not only an aesthetic enrichment for every altar, but with its profound symbolism, the altar pentacle tree of life is an indispensable accessory for spiritual practices.
