4. The Black Cat- In Great Britain, black cats are a symbol of good luck. The Scottish believe that a strange black cats arrival to the home signifies prosperity. Furthermore, it is believed that a lady who owns a black cat will have many suitors.

5. Pentagram- The pentagram has magical associations, and many people who practice Neopagan faiths wear jewellery incorporating the symbol. Christians once more commonly used the pentagram to represent the five wounds of Jesus. The pentagram has associations with a number of other belief systems.

To earth-centered religions throughout history as well as to many contemporary pagans, it represents the feminine spirit or force, the cosmos or a spiritualized Mother Earth, and a sacred space.
