Day 9

I tried to avoid doing anything specific for St. Paddy's Day, but here it is anyway...
a shamrock and a triskell (triple spiral). Both used by the early church in Ireland to explain the trinity. The triskell is an ancient symbol used in many cultures and can be found carved on the rocks at Newgrange in County Meath, IR built about 3,200 BCE. (I've seen it!) The triskell also represents many triadic connections including the Triple Goddess - the three stages of womanhood - the maid, the mother, the crone.
