1. The basic triquetra
is made with three simple arcs connecting the points of a equilateral
triangle. Start by drawing the first ark. From the point you finish the
first arc, draw the second so that it intersects the first two-thirds
of the way along. At this point, the symbol looks like a fish. The final
arc joins the two end points. You could get technical and turn this into
a parallel line, endless knotwork drawing.
2. Pray a prayer such as this one (known
as the trisagion, or "three holies") from the Eastern Church:
Holy God
Holy and strong
Holy and immortal
Have mercy on me
3. Take a photo of your sand triquetra.
When you get home, stick the photo on your fridge.
