This is a striking design depicting a white pentagram on a dark background. This is a beautiful and bold statement for those interested in all types of magic(k). The pentagram is sometimes confused with "pentacle", or the words used interchangeably. Pentagram actually describes the 5 pointed star associated with Wicca and witchcraft more precisely, where the "pentacle" can be a talisman of any type, not necessarily the pentagram. It is believed the word pentacle derives from 14th century French, meaning loosely "hanging from the neck" (pent-a-col).
