Pentacle - Witchcraft Symbol

The Pentacle, or Pentagram, is a five-pointed star pattern believed to have magical powers.

It is believed that the pentacle can be used as a defensive mechanism against witchcraft. People, in the past, have been known to etch the pentacle onto their doors to help deter witches. Witches also used the pentacle during acts of ritual magic through forming the pentacle in magic circles. It is believed that in the world of spirits the pentacle may act as a vehicle of transmission.
