I wear a pentacle necklace that NEVER comes off my neck. It was my First Degree Initiation gift from my mom , when I was initiated into the Coven she belonged to at the time. Mom was very "Crafty" and wait until all Tribal Initiation Rites were done before I became part of the Coven. My mom is now gone and as long as I wear this , she is guiding me
I do wear a pentacle necklace almost daily and I charge it each full moon with a protection spell. Unfortunately, because of where I live and who lives around me, I must wear it under my shirt or I keep it in the pockets of my scrubs while I'm at work. I long for the day that scared symbols wont insight fear and hatred from others that aren't like minded. Blessed be brothers and sisters.

Loved the video. I do use pentagrams in my workings and I have a tattoo of a pentagram on my forearm wrapped in ivy. That is so weird. I just watched an episode of Brian Meltzer's Decoded and he was talking about the Georgia Guide Stone. Some really rich unknown individual was believed to be the one behind the making of these stones. But he was believed to be a RosaCrucian. The stones are a kind of secular 10 commandments with the first guideline being. "Maintain humanity under 500,000,000 in perpetual balance with nature". Kind of cryptic considering our global population is about 9 Billion. They are also translated in 8 languages. No one knows who made these huge slabs of granite but over the years people have speculated. Just thought it was a cool history not. You and Pink are awesome. Take care. -Blessed Be
Thanks for video !! i have my pentagram hanging in the front yard representing my pagan beliefs and also a symbol of freedom !!
I was raised in Mormonism and left it nearly 10 years ago. I had forgotten about the pentagrams on those temples. Thanks for the reminder!👍 When people freak out over the pentagram and scream, "devil worship!", I love to (calmly and intelligently, of course) point out it's many uses and meanings over time. I'm sure this is already on your long list of things to cover but I'd like to see you do a video explaining right and lefthanded (and middle?) paths. This is another topic that causes some.. vigorous 'discussions'. 💜

I also no longer attend the LDS church but am thankful for it giving me the structure I so desperately needed.
High school cheer leader chant, " Pen .. Pen .. ta'Gram !" Yeah, I just show myself out.
Wished I lived closer to learn more. Just one state above Fl.
Thank you for the history of the pentagram. The poem is touching, and very cool. Thank you for sharing your personal and powerful experience. Love it.
Born and raised Christian and have just discovered wicca and am so new that I havent quite labeled myself yet. I'm starting to get more comfortable with the craft as it's so open minded. But this was beautiful I loved the poem! Your videos are teaching me so much thank you!

As a new practitioner, thank you SO, SO MUCH for all your wonderful, informative videos. Your poem is amazing, and I definitely intend to add it to my BoS-- a gifted x-tian devotional journal I repurposed for my craft, that ironically had the 'footprints' poem on the cover.
I totally enjoyed this video, so many misconceptions of the pentagram in today's society between Hollywood and misdirected Occultist's using it for profit, in my path I keep it simple, the 4 elements and spirit, with spirit always pointing to the top as in "My mind is in tune with the goddess" to me when the star point is down it denotes the mind in materialism and dark thoughts,then again this style can be handy in shadow work or banishing and help keep my darker side in check and continue balance acting as a visual when in goddess meditation...thank you my brother and as always goddess blessings
Wonderful video full of information! Many thanks, and Blessed Be.
Your poetry is so meaningful it caused me to think back to my own past and the difficult days of my wimpy Christian experience. Now as a pagan I have a better grip on life and much happier as well. The information on the pentagram is most helpful. Thank you so much. Blessed be!
Very very very very very interesting. Thank you!
I just started wearing my pentacle necklace but I also have pentacles and pentagrams through my house.
I have a pentacle tattooed on my finger and I wear a pentacle necklace as well...
Love the poem. I have a tattoo of a ten sided start with a yin yang symbol etched into the eye of a tree on my back.
Commenting out here so that the YT algorithm gives you a "Mark up". 😜 I have several pentacles but one that is special to me is one that I purchased when I was brand new to my practice 30 plus years ago is a stainless steel pentacle ring. ❤
I made a pentacle from applewood sticks and tied color corresponding bells to each point of the pentacle. Then I put a big, brass bell in the middle. I love to dance around with my rabbit and shake the pentacle. We both enjoy the sound and dancing.
Nice video manahan.and yes there is always lots of negative reactions to people and the pentagram and pentacle... I try not to attract idiots..I do need to look into the facts more myself.thease non outsiders can be so scarey..haha
I wear my pentacle 24/7. It protects me after I almost died 2020 in the hospital. Note: I love the venus - earth pentagram (8 years rotation around the sun) 🌛🌞🌜
Thank you for great teachings. I'm learning so much.. Blessed be🌱🌼

The pentagram contains a powerful artistic code called the golden ratio if it is drawn correctly. I am an artist myself as well as a magician/witch and use the pentagram to create genuine depth and perspective in my art. I have a Baphomet pentagram tattooed on the back of my neck on my 33rd vertabrae also. (33 is the highest degree in free masonry and I was initiated into the Templar order before their idol, hence the significance of that particular tattoo) Another great video Mannen! you do some bangers!! Take care and catch you around. Blessed be )0(
Lots of good info. Thanks.
I have worn the same ring for the last 36 years or so, it's a poison ring made of silver with black enamel pentacle on it. Also have a similar ring that I wear occasionally that has white enamel instead of black. Both have skulls inside the poison ring. I have never gotten a negative response to the ring. I also wear pentacle necklaces and earrings with pentacles, again I have never gotten a negative response. I live in TX and have done so continuously since 1981.
Beautiful poem, excellent video ✌️
Very informative! I always learn something more from your videos. Thanks! -Snowmoon
I use the Trinity knot and the Ankh
I am so glad and surprised that you mentioned the Pythagorian and Neoplatonist connection! Great video.
Loved your poem and your voice. Got chills! I wanted to take this moment to say an enormous thank you for your content. It's informative and badass and a breath of fresh air. Please keep it up!
I’ve been reading books for so long and I needed to watch some witchy channels for live learning from others and well the aesthetics. I found this channel and I’m learning so much I didn’t know. This journey is lifelong learning. Hearth witch is amazing
Funny story about a pentacle. Many, many seasons ago my first wife gave me a beautiful pentacle on a silver chain, and I never took it off. Well we split up and I found I just couldn't wear it any longer, too many memories. So I gave it back to her, as she had liked it also. She hung it from the rearview of her car, it is protective after all. Well two weeks later she was in a nasty car accident. Luckily her and our son weren't hurt, but the car was totalled. She freaked thinking I had cursed the pentacle, I didn't, and she threw it in the nearest river. To this day she still thinks I cursed the pentacle.
I am binge watching your videos lol, stumbled across your channel while YT surfing on my ghost hunting channel, so hopped on my witch one and am adding your videos to a playlist for them, LOVING this and absolutely LOVE your poem! :)
I am making a pentangle symbol on the top of the sissy bar on my motorcycle . I really appreciate your channel . It is my favorite witchcraft / Wicca channel Thank you . Blessed Be
Love that poem! Really, how is one to know their own power if they don't use it and show themselves they conjure their own reality! Also, if I remember correctly, it was "The Seth Material" that mentions EE-Units(electromagnetic energy units) in the non-physical realm are shaped like pyramids. So, for me, my Pentagram's that I use are "MY Creation / Conjuring is Complete " symbol, so to speak. All the necessary pyramids coming together like a pentagram which is the sign or simble of the coagulation of energy together to manifest in the physical realms. Trying to explain that clearly....lol Anyhow, great vid!
This is one of the best video i heard of the pentagram Thank you learned so much from this...Could you make a video of the Elven Star ? ..Blessed be
Awesome video, I didn't know this.
I do use and have pentagrams and pentacle, I do choose not to wear them. No to the tattoos although I do have some. I absolutely loved the poem and it made so much sense.
Great update!
Great info❤️
Thankyou for your vids manan ✌
Excellent content. Thank you for giving me more starting points for my research.
I was touching up my pentagram and about to look up more about it then ur video ofmpentagram happened to be on the list to watch
My pentagram is tattooed on my ankle⭐️
Amazing poem. It was beautiful.
Pentagram was given to me by a lovely man made by wood during my trip to the north of NSW a place called Nimbin
Yes, agree with others - always very well researched and well spoken. Good job again!

A pentagram is a geometric shape, whereas a pentacle is a physical object that usually contains a pentagram on it
I have the triple moon in purple on my front door. I can't put a picture up.
It’s on Google
Is it possible that the pentagram goes back even much further? In my study’s Egypt goes back pre flood, so I believe it goes back deep into Antiquity.
Hey there! I am loving your videos! I would like to ask your opinion on something. I recently had a tattoo done on my back at the base of my neck. It is a triple moon with the elements around it. In the full moon is the pentagram. It is a beautiful tattoo. It was free since it was done at a local tattoo academy by one of the artists that was graduating. The thing is, as the artist was doing the outer moon lines and wiping she had wiped all the images off. So she reapplied each image as she went along. However, she reapplied the pentagram inverted. She did not show me pics before she started doing each reapplication, so I had no idea until it was finished and I really didn't realize it until I got home. My eyes had been a bit blurry when she quickly showed me a pic of the finished tat and something didn't look right, but it didn't register in my brain until the hubby took a pic at home and showed me. I was really disappointed the pentacle had been improperly positioned the second time. So now I am stuck with the inverted pentacle. I know this is my decision, but with your knowledge I thought you could give me an educated opinion. It cannot be fixed at all. So does it really matter that it is inverted? Or should I just return and have the moons filled in (or just the full moon filled in). I am still not sure how I feel about the pentagram being inverted.

Hi Kim. In my practice, the inverted pentical is the God's symbol. It's not a bad or negative symbol, but I can understand your disappointment. I too, would want the Goddess pentical because I am female. If it bothers you, have it filled in by a tattoo artist that specializes in correcting others mistakes, and then have what you actually wanted put in another place. I would make sure they have a paper copy to look at during their work. 😏 Best of luck to you, and Blessed Be!
I loved your poem!!! Would you mind if I quoted you sometimes on social media? If that’s not ok that’s fine. If it’s not a problem, how do you wish to be cited in the quote? Thank you for doing these videos. It’s nice to see like minded people passing knowledge on to those seeking it when they need it the most.

Closed captions were no help whatsoever. I'd be willing to help with that if I knew how. Also, thank you for mentioning the Sumerians! I'm a practicing eclectic Neo-Sumerian Wiccan and I get a kick when they are brought up. As to the penticals, I have a ring that I bought when I was brand new to the practice - over 30 years ago! 😳😁
Can you do a "charging and opening a sigil video?
My mother was an Eastern Star, and when I was a child she taught me how to draw the pentagram in the air. I used to draw them all the time with my sparklers when it was 4th of July. I just learned from this video that she had taught me to draw the banishing pentagram. I never learned the invoking. So I guess I've been doing it wrong all this time. I'm trying to learn to draw the invoking, it feels weird since I've been doing it "backwards" for about 65 years. Thoughts?

so spirit is or can be seen as universal energy?
I recently got my pentagram and did a bit more research on it and learned that not all witches consecrate them because they don't want it interfering with their natural energy flow.. Do you have any thought's about this? Also my husband told me that the pentagram was invented by scholars centuries ago to represent mathematics. Don't remember if I've said this already

I always consecrate anything I buy new simply to rid it of any negative energies that may have been implemented during the production process. The only things I don't consecrate are herbs and some crystals and stones.

Is the inverted pentagram used as a protective symbol just like the up right one ? I am studying the left hand path lately , and have started wearing an inverted one . Someone once made the comment that it could attract negative entities , and not be as protective as an up right one. What are your thoughts on this (

Before English/German Protestantism, the inverted pentagram was hung over sick people's beds to draw down healing energy. The pentagram was a self help symbol, and the Church could not abide that .. all healing and protection must be paid to the church. Early bronze age the inverted pentagram was the symbol for goat/wealth, the inverted letter " .. A .." was the Egyptian symbol for ox, which the Greeks flip for the first letter of their alphabet.
