The Star of David is a symbol of Judaism. The shape is a hexagram, which is the compound of two equilateral triangles. According to the Kabbalah, the two David Star triangles represent the contrasts in our lives:
Good and evil
Spiritual and physical
The top triangle pointing up symbolizes the good aspect in life which bring the positive power to the triangle pointing down. Each of the Star of David's vertexes represents a day of the week, and the center reresents the Sabbath.
Kabbalists also think that the Star of David's six points represent G-d's rule over the universe in six directions: east, west, south, north, up, and down.
The special shape of the Star of David has also been thought to represent Israel's 12 tribes, as there are 12 sides at the outer six triangles.
