Stupid question but Iv heard alot of the pentagram. Whats your thoughts on it BiWiccaAndProud? Could you tell me what its used for in your religion? Thanks! ^_^
Many Neopagans, especially Wiccans, use the pentagram as a symbol of faith similar to the Christian cross or the Jewish Star of David. It is not, however, a universal symbol for Neopaganism, and is rarely used by Reconstructionists. Its religious symbolism is commonly explained by reference to the neo-Pythagorean understanding that the five vertices of the pentagram represent the four elements with the addition of Spirit as the uppermost point. As a representation of the elements, the pentagram is involved in the Wiccan practice of summoning the elemental spirits of the four directions at the beginning of a ritual.
...taken from Wiki.
Basically, a pentagram is 5 pointed star that represents Earth, Air, Fire, Water, and Spirit--the 5 major elements. A Pentacle is a pentagram in a circle.
It's not worshipped the way the cross is in Christianity, but it IS a symbol of power for most pagans.
That's basically it but if anyone needs a visual here's a pic with the location of each element on each point of it. It's not a penticle I know but those are the points that normally represent each element.
Hey,
I'm Katrina and I just started Wicca yesterday so I still have quite a few questions. LOL What should every beginner learn about first? Does anyone know if there are any stores for supplies in St. Cloud, Minnesota? What are the things beginners ahould first?
Check out the Occulte or religion section of any Half Price Books.
There's a lot of great stuff to get you started.
Remember that there are many forms of Wicca, and many people with varying opinions wrote books, so when you read, make sure you are reading some of it with a grain of salt.
You could also use Amazon and look up Wicca and Witch and Witchcraft for your key words. You can get a lot of information that way.
I'm in the Minneapolis area, and unfortunately don't know of any good pagan stores that are still open.
I recommend Wicca: The solitary practionar by Scott Cunningham and The Wiccan Bible by Ann-Marie Gallagher. The Wiccan Bible is what I read to get started... but other then that I agree with Synnen. Any book store will carry atleast one book (Hastings has alot of good ones in the New Age sections)
