the-major-arcana: PRETTY AMULET PENDANT GIVEAWAY (plus free shipping)! hello! my etsy shop Nine Worlds’ Bounty is officially opening tonight, selling lots of handmade jewelry and a few vintage things here and there, so i thought i’d do a giveaway in celebration! this triskele pendant is wire-wrapped with pretty pearlescent beads and hung with a wire-wrapped drop stone! perfect to hang on a chain or cord :) the triskele, or celtic triple spiral, is an ancient symbol of Europe, most easily recognised in celtic art. it is related to the norse valknut! the triskele reminds us to accept and celebrate the beautiful triplicities of life and the cyclical nature of our paths. in pre-christian celtic art it is often associated with the gods Manannan (the namesake of the Isle of Mann) and Brighid, and sometimes with fae-like deities called the Tuatha de Danaan. it is also suggestive of the Triple Goddess, a triad of spiritual figures named the Maiden, Mother, and Crone, representing the three stages of female life and thus fertility. the Triple Goddess is strongly associated with the phases of the moon and with menstruation (waxing, full, waning), and as such the triskele can also represent lunar power! here are the rules: just reblog, and please keep the text :) ! you can reblog as many times as you like! no need to be following me! at the end of three days (june 4th) i will pick one random winner! blessings and smiles :) xxx chelsea (the-major-arcana) -- source link
