PENTAGRAM

Picture of Pentagram

In Qabbalistic mythology and general occultism the pentagram or five-pointed star (also known as Druid's Foot, Wizard's Foot, Goblins' Cross or Endless Knot) is an amulet protecting against evil, depicting the four elements of Life plus Spirit. In its simplest form, the pentagram is simply a symmetrical five-pointed star. Through the ages it was frequently superimposed upon a picture of a man with outstretched arms and legs, symbolising the relationship between the star and man the microcosm.
