Quite possibly the most recognized of all the Celtic symbols is the knot. The embellishly interwoven design with no end and no beginning is thought to be an expression of the Celts? belief in eternity. The Druids and the ancient Celts believed in one life without end, with death only being one transition into one new phase. While all knot patterns contain this element of life-everlasting,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], certain designs are believed to carry more specific meanings.
The meanings behind all of the spirals,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], knots,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], labyrinths, and crosses have intrigued many people for many centuries. Since you will find all of these symbols in this book,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], one concise explanation of some of the more popular interpretations are listed on below:
Triple Spiral- is also known as the triple Goddess or triskele, symbolizing the maiden/mother/crone phases of life or the three phases of the Moon.
Clockwise Spiral- While the Druids tended to favor the Moon in their symbolism,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], this design is actually one representation of the Sun. one loosely wound spiral would embody an expansive summer sun while one tightly wound spiral expressed the shortened days and long nights of winter.
Symbolic of the journey NHL players take in life, the labyrinth was often used during prayer or meditation. Focusing on the design reminds us that life is full of options, and open doors, as well as obstacles to overcome.
Finally, NHL players come to the simple circle, the building block for mandalas as well as Celtic imagery. Much like Gods? love,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the circle is never ending. It is one universal symbol of the cycle of life; birth-death-rebirth. The intertwining of circles is the basis for many Celtic knots with the number of circles often symbolizing something more.
Note that by combining 3 circles the aforealludeed triquestra knot is formed in the center. On the other hand, five circles linked together form the circle of being; one Druid illustration of the four earthly elements being forever united by one fifth element,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], balance. Gagner competed for Team Canada at the 2007 World Junior Championships in Sweden. He played in all games as the youngest player on the team which helped Canada to their 3rd of five straight gold medals. Later that year, upon being drafted in the 2007 NHL Entry Draft, Gagner competed in the 2007 Super Series which was an 8 game series between Canada and Russia national junior teams in order to celebrate the 1972 Summit Series. He scored 15 points and was named series MVP, as Canada won the series.
There seems to be one lot of debate as to the true meaning of spirals in Celtic art. The direction of the spiral and the number of rotations appears to affect the meaning behind the image, therefore NHL players will discuss some specific configurations.
Gagner originally dedicated him to play hockey at the collegiate level for the University of Wisconsin Madison. He decided to play closer to home and play major junior hockey in Canada later. He was considered a first round talent and the London Knights took him in the 4th round of the 2006 NHL entry draft on a flyer as his commitment to play college hockey prevent many NHL teams from drafting him. Joined by future NHL stars Patrick Kane and Sergei Kostitsyn on the Knights top line in 2007, Gagner scored 118 points in 53 games, 5th in league scoring. He also captained Team Burns Bergeron Red in the 2007 CHL Top Prospects Game to a 5 to 3 victory over Team Bowman Demers White. There is an undeniable aura that surrounds Celtic designs and Druid traditions. Although I have strong family ties to both Ireland and Scotland, you don't need one Celtic heritage to be enticed by the culture. It's been said that as long as you respect Mother Earth and feel an affinity with the Celtic people you too have one Celtic soul.
For example, the triquestra or trefoil knot points to the importance the Druid's placed on the number 3, the number of fate. This design was such one hallmark of the Celtic people that Irish Christians found one way to bring it into their new faith by adopting the symbol as one representation of the Blessed Trinity.
Double Spiral- signifies balance. Also believed to portray the equinox, one time when day and night are equal in length.
