Hands

The influence the movement of the fingers has on the psyche

October 10th 2014
The movements we make with our hands, or just with one finger, but especially with the thumb, have an influence on our psyche. There are numerous exercises for this, but for now it would be good to get into the habit of practising two or three. When you feel tiredness come over you, close your right hand with your thumb sticking out, turn your hand both ways, then move your thumb up and down. If you need to generate willpower to carry out a task, begin by making your hand into a fist; this will enable you to master all the forces at your disposal. Always keep your thumb out, folded over your fingers; never put it back into your fist. A third movement will help you control your energies and direct them well: with the thumb and index finger of your left hand, touch the fingers of your right hand one after the other, lightly pressing each one from root to tip. You must take these exercises seriously; they may seem insignificant, but they are very important for our psychic life. For the whole universe is present in our hands. They possess a kind of switch, which can bring us into contact with the forces of nature as well as with the angelic hierarchies.
