The "pentacle" used on the altar during rituals by the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn. The four divisions represent the fourfold division of the kabbalistic sphere of Malkuth (the four elements). The hexagram is the magical Seal of Solomon, representing the conjunction of the earthly and spiritual.
