It is the runic symbol for protection. Pre-dates Wicca but has been used by witches and pagans for centuries.

I don't think it is strictly Wiccan, it looks more Celtic, but it certainly could be used as a Wiccan symbol, like someone has already said, to represent the four elements surrounded by the fifth.

There is not a single symbol exclusive to Wicca- in part because Wicca is new, and most of the symbols used are old.
The closest to a "Wiccan Symbol" I can think of (as in a symbol used only by Wiccans) is the pentacle-rose of cuew. ( http://www.cuew.org )
Even the pentacle, used by Wiccans, isn't a Wiccan symbol, but a darn near universal one.

It is not wiccan, per se; it is a Celtic knot, represending the four fold system of man.
Four become one is a symbol of balance. It relates to the four fold system of man which says we are made of four fundamental bodies:
- Emotional body
- Mental body
- Physical body
- Spiritual body

I don't think so. I could be wrong however. But I don't think so. If that were a pentagram then I would say yes for sure. It does have a sort of Pagan feel to it. I don't know what that symbol is however. I'm sorry.

It stands for the for sysrems of human kind. Top top most is spiritual body, to the right is the emotional body. The bottom is mental body and the left is the physical body. It is used to ballance the whole.

It doesn't have to, but it is very pagan-y. I actually think it's pretty. The 4 points (earth, air, fire, water) or seasons, or whatever you want it to mean united into a circle, meaning the whole.
It's also something that may run under the radar of many unfreindly to the path.

i think youll find that symbol
is quite universal
you can see a celtic cross
or a native american medicine wheel
a swastika (which is much older than the natzis)
if you look closely
you can find an iron cross too

It's Celtic knot work.
The symbology can be whatever you wish it to be. I would use it to represent earth, air, fire and water, or it could represent the compass points.
