The natural direction of life is that of the Spiral, a balanced, continuous movement winding towards the Cosmic or Spiritual Center.

The Spiral was a Sacred Symbol to all Ancient peoples. It demonstrated the Eternal Rhythm of Life. The Triple Spiral design is unique to the Celtic peoples. This ancient design adorns their most Sacred places and represents the Trinity of Life in its many forms i.e. Body, Mind, and Spirit. Most significantly, it represents the Goddess of Her matriarchal people in her forms of Maiden, Mother, and Old Wise Woman. The one continuous line of the Triscele interlaces within itself representing the "Thread of Life" woven by the "Three Fates."

The Triscele of Dana Spiral symbolizes the Eternal Path of one's undying Spirit through the course of life, death, and rebirth. Following the spiral path can induce a meditative state leading to transcendence from the mundane to the spiritual!

Artist Chris Bennett writes: "Across the mists of time and throughout many civilizations, the number three has been a powerful icon. To the pre-Celtic people of Ireland, the Tuatha de Danann, all forms of life go through three stages. The first stage starts with the Creation of each "spark" of Life. From the moment of birth, each Soul experiences the same trials and suffering of every plant and animal. Each spark is reborn from
one shell to the next, going through all life situations until it reaches a state of "ALBRED" and is ready for the second stage, the human experience. Within this stage all facets of human life are explored and understood, as the soul is reborn countless times. This cycle continues until the spark reaches "GWYNFYD" or "purity". The ancient bards defined this state as "life manifested as a pure rejoicing force having attained its triumph over "Evil." Like all rivers reaching the sea, the Soul will eventually reach the third stage of life, called "CEUGANT". Within this cycle the soul becomes Pure Consciousness and merges with the Universe."

The design style of this "Danna's Triad" is called "vegetal" as it is composed of stylized vines and leaves. This design is based on one found on a bronze relic called a horn cap (the handle on a chariot or saddle) which was found in the Thames river and dates to about the fourth century B.C. Symbolically, the vegetal style reminds us to respect nature and all forms of life therein. This emblem helps the wearer remember that every plant, animal and being encountered is the housing for a Soul on its path towards the Enlightenment.

The Triscele of Dana Pendant is double sided and made of Excelsior Pewter. Comes with a 34" cord, accent bead and booklet.  1" in diameter.
