Screen printed Patch "Triformis"

"Triformis" screen printed patch The Key, the Serpent, the Dagger – three items strongly associated with Hecate, the Triple Goddess of Witchcraft and the Afterlife. Many depictions of the Tree-Faced Goddess (Hecate Triformis) show her holding these three symbols that refer to different aspects of her. The key she is often seen holding is the key to the underworld as well as the key to unlock the secrets of occult mysteries and knowledge of afterlife. Another chtonic symbol is the serpent, that can symbolize the spirits of deceased in ancient Greek beliefs. The serpent is also strongly connected to the earth, and thus to fertility, which is another aspect that Hecate was worshiped for. The dagger is a symbol of ritual power from ancient times to this day and is referring to being able to cut through illusions. ca. 13,5 x 13,5 cm / 5,3 x 5,3 inch. This patch is designed and screen printed by myself in my home studio. Each patch is printed and cut individually by hand. The colours I use are eco friendly water based screen printing inks, the fabric is black cotton canvas. IMPORTANT INFO: After they're sewn on the patches are machine-washable at 40°C. To avoid fraying please make sure to fold the edges inward with an iron prior to sewing the patch on and use stitches that go around the edge (like buttonhole stitches) rather than stitching parallel to the edge.
