Pentacle Meaning:
The pentacle is a pentagram (a five-pointed star) within a circle. The pentagram is a five-pointed star drawn in one continuous line. This symbol is associated with protective and powerful magickal properties. In East Asian symbolism, the pentagram represents the five elements, also called phases. The five phases are: Fire (? hu?), Earth (? t?), Metal (? j?n), Water (? shu?), and Wood (? mù).
Celts and Pagans use this symbol to represent their faith as well as a powerful magickal talisman. It also represents the five elements. The pagan five elements are Fire, Earth, Water, Air and Spirit / Aether.
