Nine-Pointed Star - The nine-pointed star is made using three triangles, overlapping each other to form the star. Each triangle symbolizes the three trinities: Maiden, Mother, Crone; Youth, Father, Sage; and God (masculine), Goddess (feminine), Spirit. An ultimate symbol of unity. It is also called Star of the Muses.
Square - The square is the joining of four. It is often used as a symbol of Earth, the elements, and the directions.
Triangle - The triangle is a uniting symbol of trinity: Maiden, Mother, Crone; Youth, Father, Sage; Spirit, Self, Deity.
