Different Meanings For The Ring Fingers

A study at the University of Liverpool showed that there may be a link between finger length and depression in men. This study found that the longer a man’s fingers are in relation to his height, the more likely he is to suffer from depression. Although this study included women as well as men, the same could not be concluded for the women which led the group of researchers to discover that as testosterone levels dimish during depression, that the culprit could be lower levels of pre-natal testosterone! And all this because of his fingers…but fingers are fascinating and the vast majority of society wear rings on their fingers (no bells on their toes, at least not normally) without many appreciating some of the information about fingers. So think again before you buy stylish silver rings because you may just want to buy the next one Cannon SD600 for a different finger.The Greeks assigned the ring finger meanings in line with their Gods. So wearing a ring on the thumb finger whose God is Poseidon, represents individualism. If you wear one on the index finger, God Zeus, this meant dominance, energy and power. The Greek God for the middle finger is Dionysus so wearing a ring on that finger represents rebellion, decadence and irreverence. The finger known as the ring finger is Aphrodite, so this is for love, romance and good connections. The Greek God for our little pinky is Ares which symbolises assertiveness, competitiveness and conflict. What about palmistry? In palmistry the thumbs are related to self control. There are references here to the active hand and the passive hand; this simply means that if you are right handed then this is your active hand making your left passive.
