Hands

Hands

symbol of strength, authority, and power, a mean- ing perhaps dating to the ancient Egyptians, whose term for the hand also related to pillar and palm. In Alchemy, the right hand signifies the masculine principle and ratio- nal, conscious thought, and the left hand signifies the fem- inine principle and intuitive, unconscious thought. Thus clasped hands in alchemy symbolize the mystic marriage of opposites to create wholeness and also the communication between the conscious and unconscious.
