What does the ring on the index finger mean. Rings on fingers
Does it matter which finger to wear the ring on? There are many traditions in wearing jewelry. Knowing the symbolism of wearing rings, you can "make a statement" or learn something about its owner. There is no rigid set of rules on which finger and on which hand to wear a ring, and any person can wear rings as he pleases, with the exception of wedding rings. But there are nuances here. For example, most residents of South and North America, including the United States, and most European countries wear a wedding ring on the ring finger of the left hand, and in accordance with the Orthodox tradition, they are worn on the ring finger of the right hand. However, men often do not wear them on any finger at all. However, a trained eye can easily see even a trace of the ring, if there is interest not only theoretical. As a rule, the right hand will tell more about the physical side of a person - it is more active, dominant, more "gesturing". The left is usually seen as a reflection of the psychological side of a person's personality - it speaks more about character and beliefs. What will the symbolism of the rings tell us? Let's go through the fingers.

1. THUMB symbolizes willpower and reflects the inner essence of a person. If you start wearing a ring on your thumb, be careful, changes will soon begin in your life. Also, wearing a ring on the thumb helps to develop the will.

Rings on the thumbs are often surprising, but, in fact, this phenomenon is quite common in the world. In most cases, the ring on the thumb is perceived as a symbol of wealth and influence, while the rings in this case are more often worn wide and large. Previously, a wedding ring often moved to the thumb. Such a tradition existed, in particular, during the time of George I in England; in medieval Europe, wedding rings were generally worn on different fingers. It is also a common choice for those people who want to wear several rings on the same hand, but in such a way as to distance the rings from each other somewhat. An engagement ring, pinky and middle finger rings together can feel over the top and are not always comfortable to wear. The ring on the thumb "unloads" the composition.
The thumb up is a gesture of friendliness, so don't wear a ring on it that will annoy other people. There is nothing worse than an expensive and tasteless thumb ring. It's best when it's bold yet simple. And although many authors believe that the thumb does not have astrological associations and does not have a patron among the ancient Greek gods, like all other fingers, it is often associated with warlike Mars. It was believed that the thumb reflects character - strong straight fingers are characteristic of authoritative personalities, and curves were perceived as a sign of sinfulness. Astrology associates the thumb with carnelian, pomegranate and ruby.
There is another important point - since ancient times, men have worn an archery ring on their thumb, initially such rings were made of leather. Therefore, in the old days, the presence of a ring on the thumb was associated with courage and the ability to wield weapons. Perhaps for this reason, wearing a rather large and wide ring on this finger remains to this day a male prerogative and a symbol of masculinity.
Left thumb will not make statements about your status, profession, or other important part of life. But it's a great "statement" finger - pick a wide ring that won't get in the way and people will know you're trendy and confident.
Right thumb
also doesn't say anything in particular - it's a great way to showcase your favorite ring or use it to make a "statement". I have heard, for example, that non-traditional minorities use thumb rings to make such claims.
2. FOREFINGER represents power, leadership and ambition. It is believed that wearing a ring on this finger activates just this kind of energy. This was especially noticeable in those distant times, when famous and powerful kings wore a ring on their index finger. Wear a ring on this finger if you want to develop leadership qualities in yourself and get an impetus to develop in this direction.

This is a scene from Guy Ritchie's Sherlock Holmes. The ring of the bull is worn in the film by Chief Justice Sir Thomas Rotheram, and it indicates belonging to the fictional Temple of the Four Orders. I don't know if the authors of the film thought about historical symbols (and they touched on the symbolism of secret English organizations), but it is dressed logically, and besides, it emphasizes belonging to power. Sherlock Holmes was taken to this house with his eyes closed and accurately names its location - northwest of St. James's Park. It's between Buckingham Palace and Green Park. Enough information to use the deductive method of the hero, at least for the era of Conan Doyle. I will not delve into it - I am leading to the fact that the historical symbolism of the rings is relevant to this day.

Instinctively, we use the index finger more often than others in gestures (not counting the thumb). But it turns out that the ring on this finger bothers us less than on the middle one next to it. In history, wearing rings (usually seals or rings) on the index finger was the most common, except when in some regions of Europe it was forbidden for persons below a certain status. Therefore, rings were often worn on this finger (especially by men), symbolizing belonging to some kind of brotherhood, membership in an organization, etc. The ring on the index finger does not stand out as sharply as on the middle finger or little finger, but, thanks to gesticulation, it is quite noticeable. The astrological association is Jupiter which symbolizes strength, leadership, authority and spirituality. Jupiter's metal is tin, but silver is also a normal choice for a ring. Astrological stones of the index fingers - lapis lazuli, amethyst, blue topaz.
Left index finger does not have one hundred percent unambiguous symbolism, although it is a good finger for demonstrating important rings. To make your ring noticed - you can put on it your especially valuable or cocktail ring etc.
Right index finger - a place for a wedding ring during a traditional Jewish wedding ceremony. As a rule, a simple gold ring is used for this purpose. Often, after the ceremony, brides move the ring to the familiar ring finger, but some continue to wear it on the index finger. So take a closer look before hitting on the girl you like. Earlier in Rus', it was also a custom to wear a wedding ring on the index finger.
3. MIDDLE FINGER is the individuality of the person. Located in the center of the hand, the ring symbolizes a balanced life. And wearing a ring on the middle finger helps to make life more harmonious.

If you do not take into account the well-known gesture, then the middle finger is the largest, strongest and most courageous finger. Rings are surprisingly rarely worn on it, partly, apparently, because it is located next to the index and 2 rings nearby become an obstacle to various small actions. So that the ring does not interfere, it is better to wear simple and small rings on the middle finger. However, wearing a ring on the middle finger is very comfortable, especially when you put a ring on it for the first time. In addition, unlike the ring finger, or, for example, the little finger, the symbolism of this finger is the safest, it does not create any secret meaning or confusion. Due to the central location, the middle finger symbolizes balance. It is associated with Saturn, the metal of Saturn is lead, simple gray metals are well suited for this finger. Saturn stands for balance, justice, law, responsibility and introspection. Its stones are soothing, such as rose quartz, coral, aquamarine.
Left middle finger. If the ring is worn on this finger, it may mean nothing. But since it occupies a central place on the hand and is the longest finger, the ring on it can symbolize power and responsibility. This finger is a good choice if you want to show off the ring without making any statements about your life.
Right middle finger, just like the left has no definite meaning and is open to interpretation. You can choose your own symbol and meaning for the ring.
4. RING FINGER the left hand has a direct connection with the heart. For this reason, a wedding ring is worn on this finger in most countries of the world. Wearing a ring on this finger will add positive emotions and affection to your life, as well as increase creativity and a taste for creativity. Wearing a ring on the ring finger of your right hand will make you more optimistic.

In most countries of the world ring finger most often associated with a wedding ring - in the USA, a ring on the right hand indicates an engagement, on the left it symbolizes marriage. Most people choose a plain gold or silver ring, in part because the ring is worn all the time and is more comfortable. But this does not mean that people do not wear rings with large stones or obviously artistic and decorative rings on the ring finger. Most likely, in this case, they simply will not be perceived by the rings associated with marriage. At the same time, the rings are quite simple in shape, if they are made of different metals or have inscriptions, they most likely will.
Symbolically, the ring finger is associated with the moon, beauty and creativity, and, obviously, with romantic relationships. The metal of the moon is silver, so it's a natural choice for rings worn on the ring finger, unless it's an engagement ring. Wedding rings are traditionally more often made of gold. The finger is associated with Apollo. Precious stones - moonstone, jade, amethyst, turquoise.
Left ring finger. In most cases, this finger is worn wedding ring. Many believe that this custom comes from the belief of the ancient Egyptians, and then the Romans, that the blood through the veins from this finger goes straight to the heart (according to Apion, this is a nerve). But the ring on this finger may mean that its owner is just about to get married. (engagement ring). A promise ring can be worn on the same finger. (romantic promise), despite the fact that the status of an official proposal is assigned to the finger. Many young people prefer to wear a purity ring on this finger. (chastity ring). A wedding ring on the ring finger of the left hand is worn in France, Italy, Great Britain, Ireland, Slovenia, Croatia, Sweden, Turkey, Armenia, Azerbaijan. And also in Japan, Korea, Australia, Brazil, Mexico, Colombia, Canada, USA, Cuba and other countries. According to tradition, a wedding ring is moved to the left ring finger in Russia after a divorce, and widows and widowers wear two wedding rings (one's own and one's spouse).
Right ring finger. Although in many countries it is customary to wear a wedding ring on the left ring finger, there are countries in which the right ring finger is used for the same purpose. This applies to the Orthodox tradition and the countries of Central and Eastern Europe - Russia, Belarus, Serbia, Poland, Moldova, Ukraine. Also, a wedding ring is worn on the right hand in Germany, Spain, Austria, Greece, Norway, Georgia, India, Kazakhstan, Chile and a number of other countries. However, with wedding rings, everything is especially ambiguous. There is such an anecdote - "Sofochka, why are you wearing a ring on the wrong hand?" "Because I married the wrong person!" So, if you set out to find out if the girl you like is married, you need to take into account many factors.
5. LITTLE FINGER combines all relationships and communication with the outside world, as well as communication with other people. Wearing a pinky ring helps improve relationships, especially in marriage, but also in business. The little finger is also responsible for success in creativity, harmony in the emotional sphere and in the material world.

Little finger often becomes the choice of a person who wants to "state" something, since the little finger with a ring will attract the most attention - it is less bound by religious or cultural traditions and associations, therefore it carries your pure idea. That is, rings are worn on the little finger when they want to draw attention to this fact. People who are fond of astrology and palmistry will perceive this symbolism through a connection with the intellect and beliefs. The little finger symbolizes mercury, but this does not mean that you need to wear a ring made of this metal - it is liquid at room temperature and, moreover, highly toxic to humans. The patron is Mercury, which personifies intelligence, communications, beliefs and intuition, he patronizes crafts and trade. Traditionally, wearing rings on the little finger is associated with both intelligence and creativity, as well as with business. Stones - moonstone, amber, citrine.
Little finger of the right hand - in the 19th and early 20th centuries, in a number of countries, 2 rings on the little finger showed that the person was married (divorce ring) . The lower ring was an engagement ring, a ring was put on top. Now this tradition is forgotten, some historians claim that American President Franklin Roosevelt wore such rings. Sometimes wearing a ring on the little finger is associated with the traditions of organized crime. (mafia rings) such rings were worn by the Sopranos, in particular. In the UK and other Western countries, men wore a signet ring on their left little finger, antique rings of this type are over 100 years old. Usually such rings have a coat of arms and in many families they were passed down from generation to generation. (family rings with coat of arms) .
Little finger of the left hand often used for rings indicating professional status. This is typical for engineers in a number of industries, for example, engineering, where the ring may indicate the achievement of a certain educational level. Graduates wear the ring not on the dominant hand so that it does not interfere. Professional rings can be simple iron, silver, stainless steel and other materials, often they have inscriptions or signs. All of the above is typical for right-handers, left-handers sometimes bring confusion to this entire symbolic system.
HOW MANY RINGS CAN I WEAR? ARE THERE LIMITATIONS?
It depends on the rings. For example, a set of several thin rings on one finger is perceived as one. A safe maximum can be considered 2-3 rings scattered on both hands. Care must be taken that the rings as a whole do not look too bright, so that this is not perceived as a caricature. It is better for men to wear one "declared" ring and nothing else, or in combination with an engagement ring. But I repeat - there are no rules on this matter, only a sense of proportion and taste can become advisers here. I sorted through the paintings of artists of different eras for a long time, because jewelry, including rings, is depicted in most of the portraits. It is interesting that most often people in portraits wear rings on the little finger, or on the little finger and index finger. On the ring finger and thumb, the rings occur almost equally and least often on the middle one. I hope you enjoy these illustrations, selected from among the old canvases of the masters of painting.

(TM) A few years ago, I completely abandoned the rings on my fingers - they began to interfere with me. Now they are in a pile in a box. But I still love rings. I just feel uncomfortable in them, as if there is something superfluous on my hand. And this despite the fact that before I didn’t notice them at all - I could wear several pieces on different fingers. The engagement ring lasted the longest, but I had to part with it, after trying several options. After some time, the ring began to interfere and I wanted to remove it faster.
Today I read about the influence of rings on its owner, depending on the finger on which you wear it. Curious. Below is an article from horoscopes.rambler.ru. I saw an excerpt from it
Finger rings
Finger rings are common, with the ring finger becoming the most "popular" place for a ring. Although, as a rule, people do not think about which finger to decorate with a ring. And the choice stops on the finger, which of the five, paradoxically, has no name - nameless! But rings are not just decorations, they significantly affect their owner, and depending on which finger is decorated, certain traits of a person’s character are enhanced.
1. Ring on the ring finger.
So, ring finger. Putting a ring on him, a person (and we all often lack happiness in life that we would feel internally) seems to want to strengthen this feeling - inner warmth. The ring finger is directly related to luck, happiness, creativity, success and recognition of your talent and achievements by others.
And it is the creative abilities of a person that receive additional strength, love and admiration for the beautiful become even stronger. When a person increases the number of rings on the ring finger to two or more, this indicates a lack of these qualities and a subconscious desire to strengthen them.
An example is Vladimir Kuzmin. In addition to increasing the feeling of happiness in a person, the ring gives a significant creative potential. When a person chooses the ring finger of the left or, as it is also called, the passive hand to wear the ring, this indicates that he lacks these qualities, that they need to be drawn from outside. Although outwardly he looks like a person who has them in abundance. An example is Vladimir Vinokur, whose creative potential seems huge, but is quite unstable. 
If the ring is worn on the ring finger (finger of the Sun)
Rings on the ring finger - naturally, the most popular column is "marital status". It is filled with a ring on the ring finger of the right hand (or left, as is customary among Catholics). For the first time, this custom of the ring appeared among the ancient Egyptians, who believed that it was from the ring finger that the “artery of love” began, leading directly to the heart. With these thoughts, the people of the pharaohs wore wedding rings made of a wide variety of metals, glass, and even ceramics. Certainty with the material arises in the times of Ancient Rome - there is a tradition to give the spouse an iron or bronze ring as a sign of the inviolability of marriage bonds. Gold wedding rings more familiar to us appeared on hands only in the 3rd-4th centuries.
Jewelry worn on this finger (with the exception of a wedding ring) emphasizes the passion for beauty, exquisite things and luxury. The ring on it, especially gold, serves as a guarantee of a cordial connection, helps self-expression, the acquisition of celebrity and wealth.
If a person constantly wears a ring on the ring finger, he strives for pleasure, pleasant pastime, sensual pleasures. At the same time, he is a tireless romantic. When you see a ring on the finger of the Sun on a date with your chosen one, know that he has a great mood, good intentions and the most romantic plans. Rings on both fingers of the Sun show that a person is at the peak of positive emotions.
If the decoration is small, then the person is calm, harmonious, self-confident. If the decoration is large or bright, then this indicates the violent, even hysterical behavior of the owner. Wearing a wedding ring on the ring finger shows that marriage for its owner (no matter what a person says in words) is a familiar, significant and quite acceptable state.
If a married man with a wedding ring on his right hand says how unhappy he is, you can believe it. But if he swears that he wants to break the bonds of marriage, do not believe in any case, for the ring on his hand is evidence of his lie. Women sometimes wear some second ring over their wedding ring, usually gold with a precious or semi-precious stone. The subconscious meaning of this sign is to emphasize the significance of marriage for her and the desire to further strengthen it.
In a familiar environment, "alarm" is not needed, so many ladies in everyday life or at home do not wear wedding rings. On the left hand, a wedding ring is more often worn consciously, and usually this sign, like the green light of a taxi, indicates that the owner is free. Other rings worn on this finger testify to the state of mind of a person at the moment.
Small and inconspicuous rings speak of a calm, relatively indifferent and stereotypical attitude of their owner to the outside world.
Large and extravagant are designed to draw attention to the owner (more often - the owner) and emphasize the desire to be noticed. This can also be a manifestation of an exalted, excitable or hysterical personality, especially if the owner of the ring is a man.
Less often, large rings are worn by women who have great modesty and the same great desire to attract attention. They cannot or do not know how to express themselves in another way.
2. Pinky ring and Thumb ring.(see in the figure under the number 5)
Neighboring with the ring finger and the smallest is the little finger. Choosing it to wear a ring, a person seeks to enhance the possibilities of his self-expression, sociability. They may even increase the ability to commercial activities, such a person, as a rule, is more difficult to influence when making decisions.
There is information about the addition of psychic abilities to the owner of the ring on the little finger. As an example, among the famous people who choose this particular finger for the ring are Wolf Messing, as well as Yuri Bashmet, who wears a large black ring. This indicates that self-expression through creativity is the main goal for him, and the ring once again emphasizes his uniqueness, individuality, striving to be not only the best in his chosen profession, but even unique.
Ring on the thumb.
The ring that adorns the thumb is the least common. A person with such a ring wants to stand out from the crowd, not to be like everyone else both in appearance and behavior. Such wearing of the ring enhances and emphasizes individuality, energy, develops logical thinking, although it weakens the will. Due to the increased energy, logical thinking, a person is overwhelmed with new ideas, which are often not able to implement, embody, which is also hindered by the inability to work as a team, in a team.
Some people decorate several fingers with rings, which is a very interesting option. There is also a complete absence of rings on the hands, which would seem to indicate the complete presence of all the above qualities, but, as a rule, life shows that this is not so. In this case, it is necessary to consider other additional indicators. Rings are reinforcing factors, you can read more about this in books from the section on the basics of palmistry.
If the ring is worn on the little finger (finger of Mercury)
The little finger is the smallest page of our hand passport. There is only enough space here to put a “tick” in the “creativity” column. Rings on the little finger are a frequent companion of actresses, artists, fashion designers. Marlene Dietrich preferred such rings to all others. But even if in front of you is a person who is not connected with the world of art, the ring on the little finger will tell you that its owner is interesting and able to go beyond the generally accepted boundaries.
Mercury personifies a sophisticated mind, a passion for subtle intrigues. The constant presence of the ring on the little finger emphasizes the variability of nature, narcissism and coquetry. The little finger was associated with the art of the writer, mathematical abilities, healing, trade and diplomacy - that is, with those areas for which Mercury was responsible.
Mercury's metal was mercury, but due to its toxicity and unusual properties, it is the only metal that is liquid under normal conditions, it is not used in the manufacture of rings. True, Mercury is friendly to almost all metals, he will be able to "negotiate" with almost everyone.
Moreover, this is a sure sign of a gambling propensity and a constant readiness for flirting. The ring or other decoration in this case is designed to calm or even suppress these sometimes very disturbing qualities. What to expect from a person who came on a date with a ring on his little finger? Most likely nothing good.
He (she) will fool around, flirt and constantly tell lies. The only thing that can somehow reason with such a person is the rings worn on both little fingers. However, there is no 100% guarantee! Be careful!
If the jewelry is non-traditional and aesthetic, it means that its owner is looking for new, original, unusual sensations and impressions.
If the ring is worn on the thumb (Mars finger)
Rings on the thumbs deserve special attention, especially if the hand is male. With these fingers, as in hitchhiking, men give the signal “please pay attention!”. According to psychologists, the main desire of the owner of such a ring is to assert himself by any means, and first of all, sexually. Opinion on this score has not changed for the last two thousand years. Even the ancient Greeks and Romans considered the thumb to be a symbol of the phallus and wore iron rings on it to protect their male power.
The ring on the finger of Mars reveals an expansive, emotional person with great energy. In the hearts, he is able to say such that those around him will remember what they heard as a bad dream for a long time. To convince such a person of anything is a waste of time.
This is understood by the owner of the ring himself, therefore, purely intuitively, with the help of jewelry, he seeks to curb his ardent temperament.
However, do not be afraid if a person came on a date wearing a massive ring on his thumb. Most likely, the “lord of the ring” wants to pacify his aggression and make the communication process more harmonious.
By decorating the thumbs of both hands, he seeks to increase his chances of finding a common language with others.
According to psychologists, the main desire of such ring-bearers is to assert themselves by any means, and first of all, sexually. Opinion on this score has not changed for the last two thousand years. Even the ancient Greeks and Romans considered the thumb to be a symbol of the phallus and wore iron rings on it to protect their male power.
3. Ring on the middle finger.
Another neighbor of the ring finger is the middle one. Such a choice for the ring is the best, harmonizing: it does not enhance or introduce negative traits in the character, it activates some qualities, and smooths out others that are quite pronounced.
So the owner of the ring on the middle finger becomes more calm and balanced, and the manifestations of his character are more restrained. Although wearing a ring for a long time can develop a desire for solitude and even loneliness, isolation in oneself.
As a rule, moral values are very important for such a person, and if he recently began to wear a ring on his middle finger, this indicates a lack of these qualities, a desire to compensate for them. To realize the desire to be calmer, more balanced, more consistent with oneself - a person should put a ring on the middle finger in order to smooth out and balance disharmony.
Yulia Savicheva can be cited as an example: the ring enhances the need for harmony and slightly restrains such qualities of the singer as perseverance, lack of fear of difficulties, independence and self-confidence, openness to others. 
If the ring is worn on the middle finger (finger of Saturn)
Ring resolution: "I'm beautiful!", Placed on the middle finger. The longest and most central, it best demonstrates the decorations and how much we like ourselves. The aggressive superiority of the ring on the index finger is replaced by a more polite sense of dignity and forgivable self-admiration. It was on the middle finger that Marilyn Monroe wore a ring when she sang about diamonds. By the way, the size of a diamond in this case also matters - the larger and more noticeable the rings, the more its owner seeks to convince others of his irresistibility.
It is curious, but it was on the middle finger that the legendary ring of Omnipotence from Tolkien's trilogy was also worn. The question is, with what gesture did Sauron greet the troops of the enemy, if this finger with a ring was cut off immediately.
As a rule, family jewelry is worn on this finger to emphasize the connection with the ancestors. Thus, a person, putting jewelry on Saturn's finger, accepts fate as an inevitable influence, he believes in his karma and higher destiny. The ring "tames" the negative influence of rock and liberates thinking. Having met such a person, be sure that he has great spiritual power. And if he came to see you on a date, it means that your meeting (for him, for sure!) Is predetermined from above. The rings on both fingers of Saturn endow a person with a certain degree of fatalism and a certain detachment from everyday life.
The ring on the middle finger increases common sense and helps to overcome life's difficulties, bestows devotion, constancy and wisdom, especially if it is made of lead, the metal of Saturn, or, in extreme cases, iron.
Small, elegant and inexpensive and artistically made rings testify rather to a sense of self-worth, while large, shiny, often tasteless ones are a sign of pride and vanity.
4. Ring on the index finger.
The most expressive is the choice of the index finger to decorate the ring. This is due to the very meaning of the finger - to indicate, to show will, direction of actions and even thoughts, independence. Accordingly, the presence of a ring on the index finger affects the level of a person's self-esteem - significantly increasing it, a person becomes proud.
These qualities are especially developed with the constant wearing of the ring, which leads to selfishness, pride, overly high self-esteem, colossal love of freedom. The ring on the index finger can be seen on Dima Bilan's hand: the desire to control other people, high self-esteem, the desire to make decisions, the willingness to take responsibility, the need for success and fame, which are higher than material wealth for the singer. For him, the main thing is creativity, from which he will never refuse performances.
If the ring is worn on the index finger (finger of Jupiter)
The entry in the column "power" is made on the index finger. A finger decorated with a ring is a sign of a strong-willed character, pride and a desire for power. The “ring of power” on the right hand indicates prudence, while the rings on the left hand are more likely about megalomania and a tendency to hysteria.
Rings on the index finger were worn by many famous rulers and commanders - Caesar, Ivan the Terrible, Cardinal Richelieu, Henry VIII. The latter, by the way, in principle wore rings only on his index fingers, but on both at once - with them this great monarch, reformer, six-woman and paranoid is depicted in all portraits.
The ring on this finger indicates that its owner is a timid, shy and indecisive person by nature. Experiencing difficulties in communication, he is easily influenced. However, by putting a ring on the index finger, such a modest person gains self-confidence and, perhaps, even strives for leadership. A person who comes on a date with a ring on this finger is ready to conquer and conquer, he has the most serious intentions.
If both fingers of Jupiter (on the right and left hand) are humiliated, then your new acquaintance will stop at nothing in an effort to achieve his goal.
The ring on this finger increases self-esteem and helps the implementation of ambitious plans, especially if it is made of tin - the metal of Jupiter and Perun, or, in extreme cases, of gold, a metal friendly to Jupiter.
Any size ring indicates arrogance, self-confidence, arrogance, dominance of the owner.
Ring of power. In the 21st century, this phrase is associated with an item from the story of the Lord of the Rings, written by Ronald Tolkien. However, a couple of centuries ago they called rings of omnipotence, worn on the index finger. It placed their seals, for example, Cardinal Rechelier and Tsar Ivan the Terrible.
The peoples of different countries noticed the imperious disposition of those who put jewelry on pointing fingers. In the 20th century, psychologists, astrologers and physicians joined the discussion. They studied the features of wearing on all fingers. Conclusions of scientists and people, further.
Ring on index finger
In addition to Richelieu and the Terrible, Caesar had such a ring. He wore it on the index finger of his right hand. It is controlled by the left hemisphere. It is responsible for logic, a penchant for the exact sciences. The subconscious desire to place a jewel on the right hand indicates strategists and reasonable people. They crave power, but have a "cold" mind.
The ring on the left hand is evidence of megalomania and a tendency to hysteria. The right hemisphere of the brain comes into play. It is responsible for the humanitarian path and creativity, and creative people rarely have a "cold" mind.
Which finger to wear the ring on, according to astrologers, tells not only the brain, but also the stars. The index fingers are energetically associated with Jupiter. This planet bestows strength for accomplishments and eliminates self-doubt. The result is increased self-esteem. Conclusion: - many leaders suffer from doubts and subconsciously look for a way to get rid of them. The way out is to strengthen the personal EGO with the help of a ring on the index finger.
Doctors add that the hands are the concentration of biologically active points. It is best to work them out with the help of massage and acupuncture. But, the wearing of jewelry also has a small effect on the energy centers. A meridian connected with the digestive tract passes through the pointing finger.
The ring may indicate hidden problems with it. The body sends signals. A person cannot recognize them, but feels a subconscious craving to influence the biologically active points of the index finger.
Middle finger ring
On which finger are rings worn, meaning has for narcissists too. People who are confident in their beauty, flaunting it, put jewelry on their middle fingers. They are the longest and most visible. Remember the movie Gentlemen Prefer Blondes? It has a song about diamonds. Performed by Marilyn Monroe. The hands of the actress enter the frame. The ring is worn on the middle finger. Psychologists notice: the larger the stone itself, the more a person tries to convince the public of his irresistibility.
Astrologers see the connection of the middle finger with Saturn. It enhances the energy of the family. Therefore, it is advised to wear family jewels on the middle fingers.
