Most esoteric motifs are based on either [[RitualMagic Western ceremonial magic]] and [[HermeticMagic Hermeticism]], or some form of witchcraft or Wiccan tradition. The most famous of these are probably the four objects found on an altar in such traditions, which often appear as quest items or weaponry in many a fantasy plotline. These four stand in for [[FourElementEnsemble the four elements]], who seem to turn up quite a lot whenever there's magic nearby...

* In ''Fanfic/VowOfNudity'', Fiora the forest witch uses a chalice, pentacle, and dagger in her demonic ritual. (The fourth element, Fire, is represented by a candle instead of a wand or staff.) She also regularly refers to her silver dagger as an athame.

See also: InstantRunes, where those funny looking scribbles actually ''do'' something; {{BFS}}, where the pointy thing the hero is lugging around isn't just a symbol, TarotMotifs, RitualMagic, HermeticMagic, WesternZodiac, and PublicDomainArtifact. If a writer uses a real mystical symbol without taking into account its actual meaning, it's FauxSymbolism.

The Wiccan calendar also makes the odd appearance as a motif. Summer and Winter Solstices often have an effect on power, as do the vernal and autumnal equinoxes (also found in other traditions). Samhain has regained some prominence as the earlier Celtic holiday that became Halloween. Some characters will have strong connections to these times of year, often based on whatever type of magic they have.

* Naturally in a game about Alchemy, and Demonology -- ''VisualNovel/AnimamundiDarkAlchemist'' is full of these, from Georik's Ouroboros cufflinks he had from his father (which showed his father was an alchemist), the sword-cup-wand-knife motifs, even his house has the Cadecaus (the winged staff with two snakes) emblem carved into the wall. Basically, it's everywhere.
