Wiccan symbols are an integral part of Wiccan practices and rituals. These symbols hold deep meaning and represent various aspects of the Wiccan belief system. Understanding these symbols is essential for those who follow the Wiccan path. One common symbol in Wicca is the pentagram, which is a five-pointed star enclosed within a circle. The pentagram represents the four elements—earth, air, fire, and water—along with the spirit. The upward-pointing pentagram signifies spirituality and the connection to the divine, while the downward-pointing pentagram is associated with grounding and manifestation.
I was looking for a new watch to add to my collection early last year, and I had my eye on a GMT function watch, but I didn’t like the oversized new maxi case of the new generation of the Explorer II. The prices of the 40mm GMT were on fire due to the hype behind the GMT models, Pepsi and Batman especially. I wanted to get more of a tool watch that can be used for traveling as well, and with the 24-hour bezel indication, it is extremely helpful for daily use and even more when traveling. I think what makes the 16570 special is the size and weight of the watch, as it isn’t as thick from the movement on the back when compared to the 16550. It sits very slimly on the wrist.
Rolex Explorer II 16570 was first released in 1988 as a more robust update of the 16550 with the caliber 3185 which enabled the GMT hand to be adjustable, as used in the GMT models. Like a proper sports Rolex, it contains drilled lug holes, but the healthy thickness of the case has ensured that the holes haven t widened or that the spring bar ends aren t exposed.
The upward-pointing pentagram signifies spirituality and the connection to the divine, while the downward-pointing pentagram is associated with grounding and manifestation. Another important symbol in Wicca is the triple moon symbol, also known as the triple goddess symbol. This symbol features three moons—waxing, full, and waning—representing the stages of a woman's life—maiden, mother, and crone.
Owner Review: Rolex Explorer II Polar 16570
The Rolex Explorer II Polar 16570 has been gaining popularity in the past months, and I think it will gain more traction in 2020. Rolex Explorer II 16570 was first released in 1988 as a more robust update of the 16550 with the caliber 3185 which enabled the GMT hand to be adjustable, as used in the GMT models.
I was looking for a new watch to add to my collection early last year, and I had my eye on a GMT function watch, but I didn’t like the oversized new maxi case of the new generation of the Explorer II.

The decider that made me get this exact model was the Polar and tritium dial. I already own two Datejusts, both with tritium dial. One is black and the other is grey, so I thought a white dial would make the collection more complete. The legibility of the watch is also one of the factors that made me more interested in the Polar version, and also as it is considered the most underestimated watch in the Rolex line-up. It represents the best value steel sports watch in the Rolex line-up and is even more useful for my lifestyle.
One of the points that put off a lot of people getting the Rolex Explorer II Polar 16570 is the lack of popularity, as people don’t directly associate it with Rolex, as with the Submariner, GMT Master II or even Datejust. I would recommend also getting a Rubber B band with the watch, it then makes it perfect.

The triple moon symbol is associated with feminine power, intuition, and the cycles of nature. The athame, a ritual knife, is another significant symbol in Wicca. It is often used to direct energy during ceremonies and rituals. The athame represents power, authority, and the ability to separate the physical and spiritual realms. The cauldron is an iconic Wiccan symbol as well. It is associated with transformation, rebirth, and the realm of the divine feminine. The cauldron is used in rituals for brewing potions, performing divination, and symbolizes the womb of the goddess. The wheel of the year is a symbol that represents the changing seasons and the cycle of life and death. It is divided into eight spokes, each corresponding to a Wiccan sabbat or holiday. The wheel of the year connects practitioners to the natural rhythms of the earth and the divine energy that flows through nature. The pentacle is another significant Wiccan symbol. It is often worn as jewelry or displayed on altars. The pentacle represents protection, unity of spirit and matter, and the integration of the elements. These are just a few examples of Wiccan symbols and their meanings. Each symbol carries its own unique significance and can be interpreted differently by different practitioners. The symbols serve as reminders of Wiccan beliefs and are used to focus energy and intention during rituals. Understanding and utilizing these symbols allows practitioners to deepen their connection to the divine and embrace the Wiccan path..
