Triquetra

The Triquetra is generally believed to originally be of Norse and Germanic origins. The triquetra can be used to represent various triplicities such as the tripartite division of the world into the realms of Land, Sea and Sky; a symbol of one of the specific triple Goddesses; the interconnected parts of our existence - Mind, Body, and Soul - or many other concepts that seem to fit into this idea of a unity.

As with many Celtic themes the unbroken circle represents eternity. The three symbol is not limited to only Celts, cultures in regions throughout the world consider the number three to be a divine number. The symbol of three interlocking circles has been found on 5000 year old Indian religious sites. In Europe the symbol itself dates as early as the eighth century on carved stones. A Norse rune known as the Odin Knot or Val Knot resembles it almost exactly.
