#MAGIC #PENTACLE #PENTAGRAM

pentagram In MAGIC, usually a PENTACLE enclosed in a circle. The pentagram is used in RITUALS and SPELL casting. Pentagrams are traced in the air with a magical TOOL, such as a dagger, for banishing unwanted energies and invoking desired spirit presences, and for opening and closing rituals.
The pentagram also is the religious symbol of Wicca and represents the five senses and the four elements plus Spirit or Mind (see QUINTESSENCE).
GIORDANO BRUNO said that five is the number of the soul because the human form is bounded by five outer points. Thus magicians and sorcerers could cast spells by using a pentagram.
