The Triple Moon and Pentacle

The triple moon, waxing, full, and waning, is the symbol of the Goddess in her Maiden, Mother, and Crone aspects, honoring the lunar cycle, intuition, and feminine power. The pentacle, a five-pointed star within a circle, is an ancient sign of protection and of the five elements, earth, air, fire, water, and spirit, held in balance. Together they suit candle work that calls on both lunar timing and protective intention.

How To Use

1. Set the holder on a flat, heat-safe surface, away from anything flammable.
2. Cleanse it in incense smoke or moonlight before first use, if that is part of your practice.
3. Seat a taper candle in the dish and light it.
4. Never leave a burning candle unattended, and keep the flame clear of the iron's edges.
