What does the tree of life mean?

In Celtic Beliefs – The Tree of Life is still a prominent symbol in the Celtic beliefs and is depicted in multiple forms. They believe the roots represent the ‘other world’, the trunk represents the mortal world and connects the roots and branches, and the branches represent the world above, or the heavens.

In other cultures the Tree of life represents, The tree of knowledge, connecting to heaven and the underworld, and the tree of life, connecting all forms of creation, are both forms of the world tree or cosmic tree, and are portrayed in various religions and philosophies as the same tree

The tree of life is a symbol of the interconnectedness of all life. It reminds us that we are all connected and that we are all part of the same whole. Each part of the sacred tree symbolizes a different aspect of the interconnectedness of life. The roots of the tree of life symbolize the connection to the earth.

One of the most widely misunderstood symbol - the pentagram - is often feared by many due to Hollywood depictions in horror films.  From the Greek word “pente”, meaning five and “gramma”, meaning letter, the pentagram is a triple triangle that forms an interior pentagon. This simple, five-pointed star has a rich and varied history.

This symbol was believed to contain magical properties and was used by ancient Chinese and Japanese religions to symbolize the five elements of life - fire, earth, metal, water and wood. Early Christians used the pentagram to represent the Star of Bethlehem. As time went on, this mystical representation of harmony, peace and protection.

In more modern pagan & wiccan traditions, the symbol of the pentagram is used in many Wiccan ceremonies. Wiccans see the star as symbolizing the four elements of air, water, earth and fire, which are perfectly balanced to create the fifth element of spirit. The pentagram ring is a popular talisman worn by Wiccans and other Pagans. This star of life is often the main feature on their altars and is a widely used ritual tool, often representing feminine energy.
