Triquetra means three-cornered and connects deeply with the power of three. The meaning varies in different religions and cultures, but the concept of interconnectedness and infinity seem to be the foundation for all groups.
Celtic Cross
The Celtic Cross' construction features a traditional cross accentuated with a circle around the intersection of the arms and stem. Subject to many different interpretations, the Celtic Cross is said to be a representation of knowledge, strength and compassion to manage life's ups and downs.
The Triquetra
The origins of this popular design have been the subject of some debate by historians. While some claim it to be of Celtic heritage, others view it as much older.
The triple knot can be dated as far back as the Iron Age, but such symbols became frequent from around the 4th-century BC appearing on animated ceramics of Anatolia and Persia, as well as on early Lycian coins.
It has also been found on runestones in Northern Europe and on early Germanic coins, as well as on Indian heritage sites that are over 5,000 years old.
The symbol is often found in “Insular Art” from the 7th century. Also known as Hiberno-Saxon art, this is art produced in the post-Roman history of Ireland and Britain.
