ABOUT A heptagram, septagram, septegram or septogram is a seven-point star drawn with seven straight strokes. The name heptagram combines a numeral prefix, hepta-, with the Greek suffix -gram. The -gram suffix means a line. The heptagram was used in Christianity to symbolize the seven days of creation and became a traditional symbol for warding off evil. The heptagram is a symbol of perfection (or God) in many Christian sects. The heptagram is used in the symbol for Babalon in Thelema. The seven-pointed star (or, alternately, septagram or heptagram) has accumulated many levels of metaphysical meaning over the centuries. One of the oldest recorded meanings given to this star may be found within Kabbalistic tradition, where it represents the sphere of Venus and the power of love. It is also found within Christian tradition as a symbol of protection, the seven points representing the perfection of God and the seven days of creation. This resonance with the days of the week carries through into its use as a planetary symbol, as each point not only represents one of the traditional "seven wandering stars," but also the corresponding days of the week, (as well as other magical correspondences that come under the influence of the planets). The 7/3 septagram (the "3" indicates the distance between points) is a common sight within neo-paganism, where it is known as the "Elven" or "Faery" star, originating from a group in San Francisco during the 1980s called "The Elf-Queen's Daughters" who believe themselves to be incarnated elven spirits in human form, sent to bring about acceleration of consciousness and peaceful paradise on Earth. From this popular movement came the wider usage of the Septagram as the "elven star" as well as a symbol for otherkin nature in general.
