Spiral

The spiral is probably the oldest known symbol of human spirituality. The spiral has been in rock carvings thousands of years old, on every continent in the world and found on many tombs. The religious significance can only be guessed at, and almost certainly has a connection with the sun, which traces a spiral shape every three months in its travels. Spirals have been a primary Goddess symbols since the late Paleolithic era, as a sign of Life. As such, it is also one of the primary Wicca symbols.

The Spiral symbolizes the continuity of life and spiritual growth. It is the constant flow of nature’s processes going outward than back inward as Heaven and Earth are joined.

The Spiral is one of the most common natural shapes, seen in nature from galaxies to sea shells to the pattern of a falcon's dive.
