The triskelion was already widespread as a symbol among the Celts since the Bronze Age. The triskelion generally represents life itself and the balance of nature. Thus the Celtic triskelion has various trinity characteristics.
For example, the triskelion symbolises past, present and future, but also birth, life and death. The triskelion stands for body, mind and soul as well as for earth, water and air and also for the succession of generations - girl, woman and old woman. The triskelion thus symbolises various natural cycles in life and the eternal change of nature.
