Comment

The druids used it to heal the sick and as a talisman. The triskel was considered a magical symbol with healing abilities. This connection between mind, body and soul that we mentioned before, is due to the fact that, for the druids, the first arm or spiral represented the sensory world, as well as the capacities and limits of the body; the second arm or spiral represented the psychic world, that is to say the conscience and the reason, the ideas and the thought; finally, the third arm represented the spiritual world, as can be the difficult way of the soul and the learning of the gods and of the spiritual. https://academia-wikipedia.org/les-symboles-celtiques-et-leur-signification-ancienne-decouvrez-les-ici/
