The Hexagram is a magickal geometric shape (hexagon) made up of a 6-pointed star; it is also known as or called the Symbol of the Macrocosm, Signet of the Macrocosm, or "Star of David". There are two overlapping (some interlocking) triangles, one up and one down. The upward-pointing triangle represents man and the downward-pointing triangle represents woman, thus representing the spiritual balance between masculine and feminine. The upward triangle corresponds with fire and the downward corresponds with water. A hexagram with a circle around it is known as the "Star of Solomon" or the "Seal of Solomon" (when used in Ritual Magick).The hexagram has been used for many spiritual purposes from ancient times to the present very similar to how the pentacle and the pentagram are used in ritual magick for protection, cast as a circle, and to represent the Divine Union between masculine, feminine, earth, air, water, and fire. Some of the hexagram's usages include: Lesser Ritual of the Hexagram, Greater Ritual of the Hexagram, Thelemic/Hermetic, Gematria and other forms of Divination, Invocation, and Banishment.
