Description
My last altar pentacle broke, so I eventually had to make a new one. The only reason I use them is because they are quite useful for placing ingredients for spells on, so I don't lose them ^.^The theban around the pentacle says: Cerridwen, Cernunnos, witness and empower my spell. Blessed be.
Also has the 4 seasons and the 5 elements, with their alchemical symbols. ALSO!! I have the triple Goddess symbol and the Horned God symbol.
Enjoy as much as I did!

I.. have no words! Is this done on wood!? Your painting skills on wood are amazing! Love the lettering you used also, it is just amazing!

This is lovely. I'm curious, where did you get the wood to make it? I would love to make one myself, for similar reasons as yours, but I don't know where to start.
Oh, and are those symbols for earth/air/fire/water facing up? I wasn't sure if you turned the pentacle for each... then I would have been confused.

I painted the symbols so when the Spirit point of the pentacle is facing upwards, they are correct.
And it's pine wood, I got it from the clock making section of my local arts and crafts store

Ooh, I hadn't thought of that. They have an entire clock making section at yours? The best I can hope for is wood carving/burning, and that may not be the type I need. Thanks!

If they do have a woodcarving/burning section at yours, ask for wood rounds. They should help you from there. But be careful! This is the only one that I found that wasn't basswood (a really soft, easily carved wood) unless an easily carved wood is what your looking for!

I usually avoid balsawood, but now that you mention it, perhaps I should try carving it... hmm. Thanks!
