The mysterious power of the number three has a long and distinguished history.
The tri-spiral, otherwise known as the “Spiral of Life”, had spiritual significance.
Ancients used this triad to find oneness in the three experiences of being. Connection with earth, with self and with the divine. They believed that one could not find oneness in self but only in the three. Most scholars believe the spiral of life represents the cycle of life, death, and rebirth. Others say this deeply mystical symbol represents the male, female, and child on the path of life. Another interpretation is that it also represents the Triple Goddess.
