The Pentagram is the symbol of Witchcraft, just as the cross is a symbol of Christianity. Each point has a symbolic meaning:
The top point symbolizes Spirit. The lower four points represent the Four Elements of Life.
Top right symbolizes Air. Lower right symbolizes Fire. Lower left symbolizes Water. Top left symbolizes Earth. The circle around the star is symbolic of the Deity.
The pentagram is also often likened to the out-stretched human torso reaching out to the Deity. The Circle, being without beginning or end, symbolizes the Deity as it encompasses the star. The points of the star depicting the head, arms and legs of mankind.
The Witches Pentagram is worn upright showing the spirit (or creator) above all elements of life. The inverted Pentagram is known worldwide as being a symbol of satanic rite.
Witches DO NOT believe in or even acknowledge satan. It is stated in many places that a 5 pointed upright star is called a Pentacle, the circle around it then makes it a Pentagram.... Pentacle, Pentagram what does it matter, the meaning is what matters at the end of the day
