Triquetra
From Charmed
The triquetra is an ancient Indo-European three-pointed symbol representing three-way unity. Sometimes it has a circle running through it and other times it does not.
The triquetra also stands for God the father, Jesus and the Holy Spirit. This shows that one God acts as three people, or the trinity.
The Warren line of witches and several other witches from covens have used it to represent The Charmed Ones' Power of Three bond.
A Triquetra is sometimes used as a portal from one plane or time-line to another, such as in the Time Travel spell Chris and Bianca used or when The Charmed Ones used The Power of Three and Dominus Trinus to bridge the gap between the Astral and Earthly. (Witch Trial, Chris-Crossed)

[edit] Trivia
- The triquetra is also believed to represent the three planes of existence - Physical, Mental and spiritual. Notice how, although the three points are clearly seperate, they are interlocked together, symbolising the connection between the three planes.
