Pentagram
The Pentagram symbol, also known as the Pythagorean star, is a geometric figure - the regular polygon of a star.
The pentagram is one of the most mysterious esoteric emotions, especially because people are afraid of it. The pentagram has always been considered a talisman of strength and often frightened.
This sign is a symbol of five basic principles: love, wisdom, truth, justice and virtue. These are the five qualities that a person must possess in order to become a perfect being.
The Pentagram represents the human heart and reminds him that he can live and fulfill his duties only with the help of his Father, God. It is he who is the source of light, dynamics and magical power.
Pentagram Symbol of Evil?
Many people around the world mistakenly believe that the pentagram is a symbol of evil, personified by "the devil" or "Satan." In fact, this symbol has nothing to do with the Bible and / or Judeo-Christian concepts of good and evil.
Pentagram symbol it symbolizes what a person deals with: his spiritual and physical inner state.
The topic of the use of the pentagram and its circle in magic is very complex and its origins are relatively unknown.
Five pointed star according to some, it represents the four basic elements (fire, earth, air, water), and the fifth branch represents spirit. The circle around them creates life. The upward leg can symbolize the domination of the mind over matter, which is a prisoner of the laws of the cosmos (wheel). The downward leg represents the dominant physical world in the spirit world and is associated with black magic.
Other sources trace its origins to the Chinese philosophy of the five elements, such as the natural balance between fire, water, earth, wood, and metal. In this theory, the direction of the tip has nothing to do with good or bad.
The true origin of this symbol is completely unclear, although the symbol has already been found in prehistoric times.
The pentagram probably appeared in Mesopotamia around 3000 BC.
