In the modern world, the Pentagram is often misrepresented for demonic or devilish symbology. In Ancient Babylonia, the Pentagram symbolized mutual recognition and well being. During the middle ages, early Christians believed the Pentagram to represent the 5 senses and the 5 wounds of Christ. Later, during the Renaissance, the Pentagram took on a more "magical" connotation viewed as representing the 5 Neoplatonic elements. These Pentagram earrings are available in both silver plated and antique bronze styles.
