EOLH

The shape of this form has been compared to an old German gesture to ward off evil. This ritual gesture was made by holding up three fingers with the palm of the hand facing outwards towards the source of the threat.

An alternative version is a goose foot, representing the goddess Holda. When used as a protective device, the pentagram or five pointed star was popularly known as the 'goose foot cross.' Eolh is symbolic of the dangers in life and on the spiritual quest, which include the reality of evil as a product of perverted human nature.

It can also represent the temptations that can entice the seeker to wander off the straight and narrow path or divert from the goal ahead. This may refer to the distractions of the material life or the possibility of a quicker route to enlightenment.

In a mundane reading it warns the querent to be aware that there could be danger ahead from his enemies and to take the necessary action to deal with such threats.
