Courtney Weber on Unlocking the Secret History of the Pentacle
Aeon Byte Gnostic RadioNov 10, 2026
Author and Witch Courtney Weber joins the show to discuss her new book, Pentacle: The Shape of Power, which traces the thousands-of-years history of the five-pointed star within a circle. The conversation follows the pentacle from sacred geometry and the golden ratio found in nature to medieval grimoires that called it a diagram for magick. It also explores how ceremonial magicians, modern Witches, and even anti-war activists at the Pentagon have used the symbol as a protective talisman and a source of ritual authority.
