This is a Trinity Knot pendant, also known as a Triquetra.
The Trinity Knot is an ancient Celtic symbol with various meanings that have evolved over time. It is one of the most recognizable Celtic knots, characterized by its three interlocking loops.
Symbolism and Meaning
The meaning of the Trinity Knot depends on the cultural context, and it has been adopted by both pagan and Christian traditions.
Celtic Paganism: The symbol is often associated with the number three, which was significant to the Celts. Interpretations include the three stages of womanhood (maiden, mother, crone), the three realms of existence (earth, sea, and sky), or the cycle of life, death, and rebirth.
Christianity: Early Irish Christians adopted the symbol to represent the Holy Trinity: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. The continuous line with no beginning or end is used to symbolize the eternal and indivisible nature of God.
Modern Interpretations: Today, the Trinity Knot is often used to symbolize eternal love, loyalty, and commitment. It is a popular design in jewelry for weddings, anniversaries, and other meaningful occasions.
