Pentacle
This is one of the most powerful and popular Pagan symbols used by Witches. The pentacle respresents the four elements-fire, water, air and earth, surmounted by the Spirit.
When used in rituals the pentacle represents feminine energy and the element of earth. It can be used to invoke and bind gnomes (elemental spirits of the earth), and also to hold consecrated objects such as amulets, herbs, crystals, and so forth. It is usually a flat disc made of wood, wax, metal, or clay. You can make your own with a piece of glass-just drip some candle wax in the shape of a five-pointed star.
Pentacles are also hung over door ways and windows as a protection device.
