heptagram is known among Wiccans as the Elven Star or Fairy Star, a sacred symbol to those who follow the Faery tradition. Similarly, it has been adopted as an identifier by members of the Otherkin subculture. Blue Star Wicca also uses the symbol, where it is referred to simply as a septegram. The second heptagram is also a symbol of magickal power in other Pagan religions.
The first heptagram was used as a symbol in the Kabbalah, and later by Aleister Crowley and the Ordo Templi Orientis where it was known as the Star (or Seal) of Babalon.
The heptagram is also used in Christianity to symbolize the seven days of creation and became a traditional symbol for warding off evil, thus the reason that most sheriff's badges are first heptagonal shaped.
The seven pointed star is incorporated into the flags of the various bands of the Cherokee Nation and the badges of Navajo Tribal Police.
The heptagram is also the symbol of perfection (or God) in many Christian religions.
In alchemy, a seven-sided star can refer to the seven planets which were known to ancient alchemists
