5 Pointed Star Jewelry

The five pointed star, a Sumerian symbol for Venus, originates in the astronomical observation by those ancients of the movement of the planet through the seasons. In Pythagorean mysticism, the pentagram stands for the human being (a figure with arms and legs outstretched). Pythagoreans used the symbol as a wish for good health. Pentagrams in circle and their magickal iterations are HERE.

Hexagram Jewelry

Originating in India as a sign of sexual union, the hexagram, under its magickal name, the Seal of Solomon, is the integration of fire and water; male and female and "as above so below." The use of this symbol as the Star of David dates back to pre-Christian times, but was popularized by the rise of the Zionist movement. This symbol is older than the pentagram and is not an endless knot, but two intersecting triangles. Aleister Crowley developed a workaround for this design to create an endless knot: see below.

Unicursal Hexagram Jewelry

The unicursal hexagram is so-called because it can be drawn unicursally - that is, in one continuous movement. This is significant when forming figures in ritual magick, where a continuous line is preferred to an interrupted movement. The symbol was devised by the Golden Dawn, and later adapted by Aleister Crowley as a device of personal significance. See many more iterations here: unicursal hexagram.

7 Pointed Star Jewelry

Most of the stars we create are endless knots. This version of the seven pointed star was a familiar motif during Hellenistic times when the seven day week was first adopted. Each point refers to a day of the week and a celestial body, starting clockwise with Sunday (Sun) at the top point, then the Monday (Moon), Tuesday (Mars), Wednesday (Mercury), Thursday (Jupiter), Friday (Venus) and Saturday (Saturn.) Seven is a dynamic number of magickal significance in most cultures.

Heptagram/Septagram Jewelry

The Septagram is the symbol known as the “Seven Pointed Star.” It’s a particularly apt and powerful symbol for a complete planetary magick system because it shows the powers of the seven planets of classical astrology in balance. Balancing the seven powers, not avoiding one or the other, is the ultimate accomplishment of any practitioner of planetary magick. The Septagram is a symbol of the completed work: the seven planets in equipoise. You can view each point in the star as belonging to a planet. This way, each day of the week easily fits into your construct.

Generally a canny practitioner would put Sol at the top, as the most important force in the Solar System, and ring the other points in order. If you would prefer the jump ring/bail to be on a point instead of between them - just email us! In the Thelemic Pantheon Aleister Crowley chose the Septragram to be his glyph for Babalon, the “Great Whore," his vision of the synthesis of the universe in many ways. For more on the Star of Babalon go here.

The significance of the number seven should be obvious in most occult writings. Seven represents the triumph of Matter over Spirit 4/3 or Spirit over Matter 3/4, depending on your viewpoint. The Septagram as a symbol of balance is unerring.

8 Pointed Star Jewelry

The eight pointed star is a Gnostic symbol, known as the "Octagram of Creation." It is associated with Venus, and is also sacred to Ishtar. In Nordic tradition, the octagram is used to invoke magick and also as a protecting ideogram. Chaospheres have eight points: four points of order at 90 degrees and four points of chaos at 45 degrees.

8 Pointed Star/Compass Star Jewelry

The compass star is composed of eight points - four tall ones which stand for the primary four directions (N, S, E and W - duh) and four short ones (NE, SE, NW and SW). I'm not sure why N, S, E and W are considered more important (long points) than NE, SE, NW or SW (short points) since whatever direction one needs to go would seem to me to be at least as important as the direction one didn't need to go if not more so....but then, what do I know. The design also references the conjunction of Jupiter and Venus that occurred in 2 BCE. This design is used a lot in heraldry and this is the traditional Star of Ishtar.

9 Pointed Star/Nonagram Jewelry

The nonagram or nine pointed star represents kundalini power and the nine chakras (seven bodily chakras plus the earth-star and soul-star). It further represents the power of 3 X 3. In the Qaballah, the nonagram symbolizes Yesod, the earth, and also the moon and the power of imagination. The Eneagram is also a 9 pointed star, see below. The nonagram is important in Bahá'í as a symbol of perfection. The Masons have a triple triangle (nonagram) on top of a Maltese cross as their emblem. For Christians the nine pointed star symbolizes the nine fruits of the spirit listed in the Epistle to the Galatians. Also, a heavy metal group called 'Slipknot' uses this as their symbol!

Interestingly, the first part of this description up to "....imagination." I got from a very articulate site called Tween the Shadows and the Stars - now gone! I then saw that everybody else on the web was quoting HIM about nonagrams and I couldn't find any other corroboration for any of it (Qaballah etc.). So......I don't know! If you know anything, let us know. The nonagram is three triangles interwoven but the spiky 9 pointed star is not.

This one is just right :) You may be wondering why this version is so much more expensive than the ones above and the reason is: the higher the number of internal cuts - 19 in this case - the harder the piece is to make and the more it costs.

The Enneagram of Personality — usually known simply as the Enneagram — is an application of the geometric enneagram figure to various personality issues. The term "enneagram" derives from two Greek words, ennea (nine) and grammos (something written or drawn). The enneagram figure consists of a nine-pointed diagram within a circle. The Enneagram of Personality is mostly taught and understood as a psychospiritual typology (a model of personality types) but is also presented in ways intended to discover and develop higher states of being, essence and enlightenment. Each Enneagram personality type expresses a distinctive and habitual pattern of thinking and emotions. Practitioners claim that by recognizing their personality pattern a person may be able to use the Enneagram as an effective method for self-understanding and self-development.

If you want your enneagram with a standard bail/jump ring, the price is $10 less for the medium and the large and $15 less for the extra large. Email me about that why dontcha?

The enneagram has nine points and each one is associated with a certain type of personality. This piece has an emerald at the 8 point - the point of The Challenger. We can of course put a stone at any point but because the area is so small, we need to use a faceted stone which we then tube set so it doesn't catch on your clothing. Email us about your choice of stone. Most stones cost what I have shown here: $15 - $20

An eleven pointed star is called a hendecagram. But, shhhhhhhhh, don't tell anyone: the base of the Statue of Liberty is in the shape of a hendecagram AND terrorists hit the World Trade Ceneter on 9/11 so you know that means that the builders of the Statue of Liberty were setting up that attack in France all the way back in 1875!

You can't make this shit up......if you have any more information about the 11 pointed star, please email me. As you can see I'm crazed.

My desperate plea for information was answered by Carl - thanx, Carl:

The hendecagram represents the Qliphoth and the Tree of Knowledge, adverse to the Sephiroth of the Tree of Life in the Qabbalah. There are are 10 qlippa that are opposite the 10 sephiroth, where the 11 comes in is at Thaumiel which is the “twin gods” representing duality in place of Kether’s unity on the Tree of Life.

It also represents the Kings of Edom, 11 evil kings who ruled in the land of Edom. Also attributed to the Qliphoth.

12 Pointed Star Jewelry

In a duodecimal system, twelves are everywhere you care to look (clocks, inch rulers, calendars etc). The system of dividing into twelfths remains a bit of a mystery, though "being a versatile denominator in fractions" might have something to do with it. Twelve pointed stars are found cross-culturally and can refer to: the 12 Disciples, the 12 Knights of the Celtic Round Table, the 12 Signs of the Zodiac, the 12 Lictors of Romulus, the 12 Peers of France and even the 12 Namshans of the Round Council of the Dalai Lama. There are 12 inches in an imperial foot, 12 ounces in a troy pound, 12 old British pence in a shilling, 12 items in a dozen, 12 dozens in a gross (144, square of 12), 12 gross in a great gross (1,728, cube of 12), 24 (12 x 2) hours in a day, etc. See below for more exciting information on the number TWELVE!

The Romans used a fraction system based on twelve, including the uncia, which became both the English words 'ounce' and 'inch.' Predecimalisation, Great Britain used a mixed duodecimal-vigesimal currency system (12 pence = 1 shilling, 20 shillings or 240 pence to the pound sterling), and Charlemagne established a monetary system that also had a mixed base of twelve and twenty, the remnants of which persist in many places...and I'll bet that's more than you EVER wanted to know about the twelve pointed star!

13 Pointed Star Pendant

Now I get to talk about: triskaidekaphobia (from Greek tris=three, kai=and, deka=ten + phobia=fear), fear of the number thirteen. The number thirteen is considered unfavorable by many though it was a lucky number in ancient Egypt and China. There were 13 people at the Last Supper. And several mass murderers have 13 letters in their names: Charles Manson, Jeffrey Dahmer, Theodore Bundy, Richard Cheney. Witches, perhaps to clearly oppose themselves to a Christian superstition, sometimes have groups of 13 known as covens. Some think 13 owes its bad reputation to Loki, the Norse god, who started a riot when he crashed a banquet at Valhalla attended by 12 gods. Some cities skip 13th Ave., but not Sacramento, CA, which has an intersection where 13th Street crosses 13th Avenue. Some buildings skip from the 12th to the 14th floor, which, of course, means that the 14th floor is actually the 13th floor. The Death card in a tarot deck is numbered 13 and represents transformation. Those cultures with lunar calendars and 13 months don't associate thirteen with anything sinister.

According to a 1996 Gallup poll, 9 percent of Americans are superstitious about the number thirteen. In 1881, an influential group of New Yorkers came together to put an end to this and other superstitions. They formed a dinner cabaret club, which they called the Thirteen Club. At the first meeting, on Friday 13 January 1881 at 8:13 p.m., 13 people sat down to dine in room 13 of the venue. The guests walked under a ladder to enter the room and were seated among piles of spilled salt. All of the guests survived.

Related is the specific fear of Friday the 13th, called paraskevidekatriaphobia or friggatriskaidekaphobia. Great words!

The thirteen pointed star below is probably our limit for stars with internal cuts, unless you want a star much larger in diameter (say 3" or more), in which case you could probably have twenty four points - or twenty six! This piece can also be had without a stone and without a circle and in karat gold. The prices are for an amethyst, which is rather expensive in the extra large. Email us for more info.
