Sterling Silver Celtic Quaternary Wiccan Witches Knot Ring Size 5

The Witches Knot is a folk magic symbol that is believed to ward against harmful influences. Traditionally, rope was knotted into this quaternary design and placed over doorways as a protective talisman. Celtic knotwork illustrates the flow of life and our interconnected relationship with Nature. The points formed serve as representation of the four elements: earth, air, fire and water. In Earth-based spiritual traditions, this knot would be made from the initiate's sacred cord. Folklore tells us that witches used knotted cords to tie up the weather, to create circles of protection, and to bind things magically.
