Compassion is understanding and caring when someone is hurt or troubled, even if you don't know them. It is wanting to help, even if all you can do is listen and say kind words. You forgive mistakes. You are a friend when someone needs a friend. It is being kind and forgiving to someone who has hurt you.
Courage is bravery in the face of fear. You do the right thing even when it is hard or scary. When you are courageous, you don't give up. You try new things. You admit mistakes. Courage is the strength in your heart.
Creativity "is the power of imagination. It is discovering your own special talents. Dare to see things in new ways and find different ways to solve problems. With your creativity, you can bring something new into the world."

Faith is a relationship of trust . It is believing in the reality of Grace. We are confident that our life has a
purpose. We believe in ourselves, knowing we were created with love. Faith is the wind in the sails of our
dreams. It gives us the strength to go on, not succumbing to doubt, fear or hopelessness. As we move forward, we are guided to the right path without having to make it happen. Even in the most trying times, we are open to miracles.

Gratitude. This design represents Appreciation, Gratitude and Thankfulness. This charm represents a sense of gratitude combined with a desire to repay others for what we have been given. It’s not just that we feel grateful, or that we express our gratitude, but that we actually experience a sincere desire to give something back. Appreciation and Gratitude for our natural wonders, our freedoms and our many blessings. It reminds us to live every day with Thankfulness and Gratitude.
Love is a special feeling that fills your heart. You show love in a smile, a kind word, a thoughtful act or a hug. Love is treating people and things with care and kindness because they mean so much to you. Love is treating other people just as you would like them to treat you - with care and respect. Love is contagious. It keeps spreading.
Peace "Peacefulness is an inner sense of calm. It comes especially in quiet moments of reflection or gratitude. Peacefulness is a way of approaching conflict with others so that no one is made to feel in the wrong. Peace is giving up the love of power for the power of love. With Peacefulness , everyone wins."

Serenity means maintaining a sense of inner peace even in difficult situations. We gain serenity by accepting the things we cannot change and focusing our energy where we can make a difference. when we cultivate serenity, we don’t fear our emotions, but we do keep them in balance. We govern ourselves rather than being ruled by external circumstances and our feelings about them.
Strength : while not strictly being a Virtue as such, I felt when developing affirmation and motivational jewellery, that it deserved inclusion and representation. Strength of resolve, Strength of perseverance and determination, Strength of purpose, Strength to withstand pressure, Strength to stay positive and committed to your chosen path, Strength of any challenge virtue that you are working to strengthen.
Trust is having faith in someone or something. It is a positive attitude about life. You are confident that the right thing will happen without trying to control it or make it happen. Even when difficult things happen, trust helps us to find the gift or lesson in it.
Unity "helps us work and live together peacefully. We feel connected with each other and all living things. We value the specialness of each person as a gift, not as a reason to fight or be scared. With unity we accomplish more together than any one of us could alone."

Awe, Wonder & Wisdom : The triquetra has been linked with many trilogies. The maiden, mother and elder, The Earth, Water & Sky, the three phases of the moon, and the Catholic Holy Trinity. This is my triquetra of Virtues, to reflect the three phases of Life mentioned first, which seems to be the eldest translation. You may wish to use it to represent your own trilogy. Awe is reverence and wonder, deep respect for the source of Life.
