The beautiful symbol you show in your other post is an Odin's knot also known as "TRIQUETRA" The celtic culture preserved primal symbology. It was a sacred langauge/mode of communication (like Arabic and English today) and the symbols still resonate with power. There are a number of "pure streams" whereby one may access and travel the Path (Christianity, Islam, Buddhism etc)....The Celtic religion was also a stream of transmission that has since dried up. However, as mentioned, the symbols still carry the power of a legitimate stream.
The Power of the symbol can resonates deep within us In The Celtic and Wiccan Traditions the number 3 is very important and represents the 3fold nature of the Goddess (virgin) Mother and Crone. It symbolizes the 3 forces of nature as well: Earth Air and Water. Also Life Birth and Death. The inner 3 circles of your Triquetra represent the female element and fertility.

Thanks Juni!!! Sorry about not replying earlier... I didn’t see the thread… When I’m busy during the weekdays, I only check on the forums having a quick look to familiar threads… (Sorry, as a Virgo sometimes I can’t see the forest for the trees…) What you told me about that symbol is amazing… So actually, that symbol could place me at any ancient civilisation… It seems Celtic-like so it still could be pointing to the Celts… I’m looking forward to Fayte’s interpretation and insights… Thanks for taking the trouble for me!!! Knowing how it is called, I can dig into it… A name is always so valuable!!!

Hello Juni, Thank you for sharing the information on this symbol. As this pure symbol of transmission has dried up, could it be revived? With enough interest could this happen? The truths still stand, the symbols still hold their truths. Many are finding that they have an interest in them. If you have the time could you list more? Blessings. SueIP: Logged |

Good morning Seashells, wonderful points to ponder It is said that the Pagan/Celtic reverence for the symbol 3 (Triquetra)was recognised by the earley Christians and "adopted" to Christianize it while eliminating Paganism. The symbol appears on Catholic Priests robes today. The adoption of the 3 became the Trinity in Christianity: The Father, Son and Holy Ghost/Spirit. I accept, in that sense, the Transmission hasn`t "died" but as you said "dried up" or become obsorbed in a muddy stream of Transmission. The Truths have been obscured in illusions ie by recreating them to suit a specific purpose or agenda , in this case,Christianity. I also accept all Truths are absolute, endure thru infinity and can ( and will be ) revived. The How is the trickey part This is my understanding of the symbol and Transmissions, any errors are my failings and not the Teachings I would love to have you share your insights as well!! In particular how to revive the purity.

Juni, from what I have read the symbols and designs were like a visual vocabulary for the Celts. But there is little reliable information now to back up the meanings. No one has found a "Rosetta Stone" to decipher them. Seems as if alot of the relgions have used some form of them. I have also seen the triqetra pictured as three fish intertwined. If one has the time and interest there is alot of "maybes" floating around. Blessings. SueIP: Logged |
