Ever since we were kids, we would be drawing the simplest things: circles as balls, squares as boxes, and the like. As we got a little older and better, we would be drawing more complex and crisscrossing shapes. Most likely, one of the most attractive and familiar things drawn and seen are stars, with those five pointed images that makes us smile especially when being awarded with it. Yet there is also a commonly used star which has six sides and ironically, this six-sided star has been recognized since the time before the crucifixion took place, even before the Israel Flag was first hoisted.

The Star of David, as it is most commonly termed in modern society, is used in a variety of sacred and very important aspects. For scholars, they believed that this symbol of the hexagram was used as a seal and part of early use of magic and religion to control bad spirits and ensure good outcomes. This was also termed as the Symbol of Solomon, where it was believed that he used the symbol carved into one of his rings to bring good fate. Nowadays, the symbol is seen mostly as the symbol for the country of Israel, as see in every Israel flag, and also as the symbol of one of the well known and respected religious orders such as the Jews.

The Star of David as what it is termed, or even as other call it as the shield of David, is a symbol of strength and power of those who take pride in its rich history and glorious yet mystical past.
