Triskelion-Triple Goddess T-shirt
The triskele is a three-legged pattern. The triple form represents the female principle, and is particularly sacred to the Celts, who used a triple cycle for the seasons, and for many magical patterns. Celtic goddesses frequently appear in triple form. From ancient times, the great earth mother was a trinity, representing her three aspects, maiden, mother and crone. The Triskelion is the triple-triangle form of fate (or the fates). Three rings were supposed to invoke the three fates in several ancient traditions. There are many examples of triskele patterns on pictish stones and in the Celtic manuscripts, the pattern may be used as a magical charm-probably to avert evil. Spirals are among the most sacred signs of Neolithic Europe, symbolizing the womb, death and re-birth. They appear on megalithic monuments, entrances to caves-sacred places of worship, all over the continent and the British Isles, such as Newgrange in Ireland. The spiral was a particular symbol of the goddess faith. Spirals also symbolized the coiled serpent or dragon, both regarded as sacred on the old religion, representing the natural energies of the earth and sky.
