Isn the pentacle symbolic of Satanism?
Most pagans who wear a pentacle wear it with the point of the star facing upwards, to symbolize the four elements (earth, air, fire, and water) plus Spirit. Some pagan traditions use a pentacle with a downright-pointing star to symbolize the Horned God. Other pagan traditions with degree systems use the downright-facing pentacle to signify attaining certain ranks. Satanists wear the downright-facing pentacle to symbolize the superiority of the material world over the spiritual world. Many pagans do not wear a downright-facing pentacle because of its association with Satanism.
