What is the meaning of Celtic knots?
The triquetra is one of the most widely used and well known Celtic knots –
A popular interpretation today is that the act of combining the triquetra, which itself is unicursal and, therefore, a symbol of eternity, with the circle enhances the power of each of both the elements. The triquetra with the interlaced circle has become a popular symbol of love.
Some neopagans also use the triquetra in their iconography. Often it represents the three stages of life, particularly in women, described as a maid, mother, and crone. The aspects of the Triple Goddess are named the same, and thus it can also be a symbol of that particular concept.
The triquetra can also represent concepts such as past, present, and future; body, mind, and soul; or the Celtic concept of land, sea, and sky. It is also sometimes seen as a symbol of protection, although these interpretations are often based on the mistaken belief that ancient Celts ascribed the same meaning to it.
