One of the most-loved spiritual protection charms, and for good reason, the Hand of Hamsa is a universal sign of protection, power and strength, believed to protect against negative energies.
What is the meaning of the Hand of Hamsa?
The word “Hamsa” means “five,” representing the fingers of the right hand. Some cultures believe that each one relates to a different element and chakra.
How to wear the Hand of Hamsa? Should it face up or down?
The Hand of Hamsa is powerful however you wear it, although it is believed that when the Hamsa hand faces down, it can open you up to the abundance and goodness of the universe. In this position, it is also thought to bring fertility and answers to prayers and manifestations.
When the Hand of Hamsa is facing up, it is a universal sign against evil. It is a powerful symbol of protection, and shields us from our inner thoughts of hatred, jealousy and insecurities.
At Alemdara, all of our Necklaces and Earrings featuring this magical sign show it facing down. With our bracelets, you can choose to wear the hand up or down depending on your needs and wishes.
