People wear various symbols of their faith for whatever reason. Some people wear crosses, some people wear Ankh's, some people wear Tree's of Life, and some people wear Pentacles.
I am one of the people who wears Pentacles. I don't wear it to be cliché, I don't wear it to be rebellious, I don't wear it as a fad, and I'm not ignorant of it's meaning.
I wear a pentacle for MANY reasons. Not only do I feel it's the closest representation of my faith (being a Witch and a Spiritualist), but it represents numerous aspects of my life.
-The pentagram represents the five members of my immediate family: my son, my daughter, my
youngest son, my husband and myself.
-The pentagram represent the five members of my originating family: my mom, my dad, my two
sisters and myself
-The pentagram represents the four elements and Spirit/Goddess
-The pentagram represents the four directions and the Great Spirit (stemming from my Native
beliefs)
-The pentagram represents the five senses
So, as you can see, I have more than one reason to wear the pentagram/pentacle. Now, you won't see me wearing a pentacle the size of a hubcap, nor will you see me wearing multiples of the same symbol/shape. While the Pentacle HAS meaning to me, it doesn't mean I prefer to show it off for the purposes of seeking attention. I hate being the center of attention, and dislike being approached randomly. While I wear a pentacle, it's a small subtle ring on my right finger.
Welcome to my blog. Enjoy a warm cup of tea and sit for a spell.
