The scene depicted on the charm is a summary of the Minoan conception of the divine and the unity of the universe.
A threefold appearance of a Minoan goddess: she is floating in the air at the top of the seal; below it, she is watching the worship ceremony, sitting in her own temple; and then finally, she is ferrying her temple across the sea on an elegant boat in the form of a seahorse. The goddess appears at once in three elements – air, earth and water, linking the entire Universe and transferring power over it.
