In ancient times, rings were not decoration, but had a ritual and magical meaning. Moreover, they were worn only by priests or rulers. The manufacture of rings was treated with the utmost attention. This took into account who it is intended for and what its significance is. Which rings to wear on which finger depended on gender, age, status, and even the time of day. All these subtleties were described in special texts, for example, in Indian ones. But they are encrypted because they are secret knowledge. Let's try to open its veil.
Energy of jewelry
Before you put a ring on your finger, you should be aware that the energy in the human body is distributed in accordance with its gender. That is, the bottom to the solar plexus is yin, and the upper part is yang. It's horizontal.
Vertical, the female side is left and the male side is right. However, this does not apply to the head area - the opposite is true here. It is known that right-brained individuals -pure humanities, while the left hemisphere gravitate towards the exact sciences.
This information is important to understand which rings to wear on which finger. The value of jewelry is determined not only by its price, but also by the energy it carries. All metals are divided into three types: yin, yang, tao. Accordingly, a ring made of gold will enhance the "yang" energy of its owner. Silver jewelry will enhance the "yin"; and iron, stainless steel or white gold are the universal "tao" metals - they combine feminine and masculine energies.
Energy management
Now let's imagine that you put on a silver ring on your right hand. It turned out that the energy of "yin" has introduced an imbalance in your body, since the right side of the body is "yang". In order to align the poles and restore harmony, you will have to make efforts that could go to other goals. It happens that we experience an inexplicable breakdown, not realizing that the reason lies in the finger with the ring.
The same thing will happen if your gold jewelry is on your left hand. This is equivalent to dipping hot iron into cold water. Your body's energy will be out of balance, which can lead to excessive nervousness.
Therefore, in the question of which rings to wear on which finger, the meaning of the left or right hand is very important.
Planetary finger control
It is known that there are about 400acupuncture points. Each of them is associated with a specific organ. By acting on a certain point, you can, for example, change the rhythm of the heart.
The effect of jewelry on the body is built on the same principle. The energy of the metal, in contact with the skin area where the active points are located for a long time, can improve or worsen your he alth. This, of course, does not happen immediately, but a drop wears away the stone. And it is not for nothing that the smallest details of wearing jewelry were spelled out in ancient Indian treatises.
Let's take a closer look (in the context of planetary meaning) which rings to wear on which finger. Palmistry gives the following explanations on this matter:
- the thumbs (and toes too) are ruled by the planet Mars;
- index - the planets Jupiter and Neptune;
- middle fingers are in charge of the "lord of karma" Saturn;
- ring fingers are ruled by the Sun;
- Mercury commands the little fingers.
Each of the planets is responsible for a certain area of human life. Therefore, by wearing jewelry, we strengthen or reduce the influence of a certain heavenly ruler.
Gem Energy
Rings are created from a frame and a precious or semi-precious stone. And few people know that they also have a certain energy. You should know that some gems are combined only with silver or only with gold. Dao metals can be used as a setting for any stone.
Let's consider in detail which fingers women wear rings on and how harmonious it iscombined with the energy of their body.
Most often, the ring can be seen on the ring, middle, less often index finger of any hand. This means that the yang energy of Jupiter (or the yin of Neptune), the yin of Saturn or the yang of the Sun is being activated.
About what the reaction of the body (taking into account the side of the body) to a particular metal can be, it was said above. Let's deal now with some features of gems.
"Female" energies of stones
Let's start with semi-precious stones, because they are often worn with women's rings. On which fingers they should be worn and what is the compatibility of the frame and the gem - almost none of the lovely ladies think about it. Let's try to fix the situation.
Let's study the most "feminine" stone - amazonite. It is also called imperial. It has a pale green color with whitish veins. Pairs well with silver as they are both carriers of yin energy. This stone was created by nature itself for a woman who wants to always remain attractive to her husband, be a good mother to children and be in harmony with herself. Amazonite has a healing effect on the female body. It should be noted that the most harmonious type of stone processing for women's jewelry is "cabochon". In this case, there is no doubt on which finger to wear a ring with a stone. A woman should wear it on the little finger or on the middle finger of the left hand.
For men thisa stone may be suitable if their goal is to understand the woman with whom he is in a close relationship.
For business women and men
Another popular semi-precious stone is malachite. Its energy is also feminine, however, it is different from the characteristics of the Amazonite. If you are a self-sufficient person with ambitious aspirations - malachite will help you. Its impact will help to distribute your energy between the personal and professional spheres.
As is often the case, it is difficult for a woman to decide on priorities, which makes her extremely nervous. Malachite helps to bring clarity to this issue, and you will pay tribute to both the work and the disclosure of female sexuality. In addition, this stone has a beneficial effect on the he alth of the reproductive sphere, and is also a talisman for children. It goes well with silver and steel, and should be worn on the middle finger. As for the choice of hand, it depends on the area that you want to strengthen: if career growth, then right, and if home, then left.
This gem is also suitable for men, especially if they work in a women's team: it allows you to better understand female psychology. For those who are fond of esotericism and paranormal phenomena, malachite will help in controlling primitive otherworldly forces (elementals).
Symbol of fidelity
When married, spouses exchange rings. This ritual has a history going back to pagan times. On which finger did a woman wear a wedding ring when she got married? To answer this question, it is necessaryremember the way of life and the historical realities of that era.
Times were turbulent: disputes over lands, raids by hostile tribes, the need to be constantly ready to repel the enemy … The man was the protector and support of the woman. When they walked together, she was to the right of her husband, since he held a sword in his left hand. In case of danger, he could protect the woman with his right hand.
Therefore, the man wore the symbol of marital fidelity on his right hand, and the woman - on the left. The widow wore her wedding ring on her right hand and the widower on her left.
Today, the question of which finger a wedding ring should be worn by a man or a woman is decided differently, depending on the culture and customs of different countries. But the common practice in most countries of the world is to wear the symbol of marriage on the left ring finger. Since the time of Ancient Egypt, it is believed that it is from him that the energy of love for the heart flows. In Russia, the situation is different: wedding rings are worn on the ring finger of the right hand, wedding rings are worn on both the right and left hands. Therefore, it cannot be said that there are strict regulations in our country.
Marriage rings are purchased, as a rule, in a simple form, given that they are worn all the time. Sometimes women wear another one over their wedding band - with a stone, which indicates how important this union is for her. And many more wear both engagement and wedding rings on the same finger.
Apollo Symbol
Palmistry claims that the sun god Apollo controls the ring finger. If youchoose a piece of jewelry in a jewelry store, then, most likely, the first fitting will be on this finger.
Apollo's metal is gold, which goes well with precious stones: diamond and ruby.
The patronage of the sun god is very important for the successful outcome of any undertaking. Therefore, the answer to the question of which finger is worn on the ring of luck is obvious. The influence of Apollo is expressed in an optimistic mood and a surge of energy, and this is the key to success.
Let's list which rings are worn on the ring finger, with which semi-precious minerals:
- tourmaline in different shades;
- red jasper, which has the ability to protect from trouble;
- carnelian, which is a "healer" for many diseases;
- a grenade that can give its owner courage and energy;
- topaz used for meditation practices;
- amber that heals thyroid diseases and gives optimism;

Statement of intent
As a rule, young people declare their most serious intentions with an engagement ring. On which finger it is located will depend on the era and traditions. For example, in Russia until the beginning of the 20th century, this was evidenced bydecoration on the index finger. Today it is worn on the ring finger of the right hand.
And on which finger the engagement ring is worn in the USA - can be seen in numerous melodramas with a happy happy ending, where the main character puts it on the ring finger of the heroine's right hand.
An interesting question about the design of a significant piece of jewelry. It can be either strict, without frills, or baroque - it depends on taste and financial capabilities. A moderate-sized diamond surrounded by a discreet setting is the traditional version of an engagement ring. Which finger to put it on - you already know.
How long will it take from the moment of engagement to the march of Mendelssohn - this issue is decided individually. Even in the century before last, this period usually lasted one year. Perhaps it will be superfluous to ask on which finger the ring is worn before the wedding. All on the same right nameless.
Mars Energy
The thumb is associated with the energy of Mars. In the body, it is responsible for the processes occurring in the brain, as well as in general for the head and neck area. Therefore, putting a ring on your thumb, you activate memory, logical thinking and strong-willed qualities. If you have enough of them, then you should not "overload" the body with this energy. When you lose strength, Mars will help you restore them.
You should be very careful when choosing a stone for the ring, because Mars does not have a sense of humor. Additionally, it is highly undesirable to activate aggressive energy. Therefore, for a ring on a largeUse your finger to pick up stones in cool tones: blue, green or turquoise.
By the way, the story of the duel of A. S. Pushkin is indicative in this respect. He wore an emerald ring on his thumb, which he considered his talisman. However, on the day of the duel with J. Dantes, for some reason, the poet put on a carnelian ring. And as you know, this is an orange-red stone …
It should be noted that the rings on the thumb are worn more often by men. Suitable for men's signet ring:
- lapis lazuli that gives its owner the qualities of concentration;
- green turquoise, especially if set in gold;
- aquamarine, preferably greenish;
- emerald;
- green and blue sapphire;
- citrine and other yellow stones.
In this case, jewelry with blue and gray stones will be undesirable. And it is also necessary to take into account that the metals of Mars are tin and iron. Gold is related to this planet, but indirectly through the element of fire.
As for which finger to wear a ring with a stone for a woman, ladies are advised to refrain from activating the energy of Mars, as this can lead to migraines, nervous breakdowns and uncontrolled aggression.
Jewelry before marriage
It is impossible to imagine that a girl would not wear jewelry before receiving an engagement ring. As a rule, she receives gifts from her parents in honor of coming of age or graduation, etc.
So let's talk about which finger to weargirl ring. It all depends on what qualities she wants to enhance. However, young ladies are full of romantic dreams, and therefore most often unconsciously put rings on the ring finger of the left or right hand.
If you approach the choice of jewelry with skill, then you need:
- decide on the tasks that you set for yourself;
- choosing the right stone;
- selecting the appropriate metal for the frame.
Therefore, the answer to the question of which finger an unmarried person wears a ring on depends on what the priorities of a young girl are. If she is determined to achieve certain goals, she needs a balanced state of mind, which is obtained by wearing jewelry made of silver or iron on the middle finger. It is ruled by Saturn, which means that by activating this energy, a girl can overcome obstacles on the way to her goal. Stones for the ring should be chosen in cold shades. Red or pink, set in gold, will bring more disappointment in your personal life.
Now let's get back to the question of on which finger the "save and save" ring should and should not be worn. The middle finger is for him. But the nameless one, especially on the right hand, is categorically not recommended, since there is a high probability that you can be left alone. This applies to both men and women. Symbolically, wearing a ring on this finger classifies you as either a monk or a "bride of Christ".
Jupiter influence
The index finger isruled by the planet Jupiter. However, if you were born at night, then Neptune will have a greater influence on you. Their energies are somewhat similar, but somewhat opposite. In particular, Jupiter belongs to the fiery element and manifests itself accordingly. He is expansive, irascible, extravagant, authoritative and ambitious. Wherever he appears, it is impossible not to notice him. He is extremely inquisitive and loves to philosophize.
All of these qualities can be manifested when the index finger is activated. What kind of rings are worn on it depends on the goals of the wearer. However, it is safe to say that a frivolous attitude to the choice of jewelry can turn into many troubles. Therefore, pay attention to the following recommendations:
- Stones for the ring, choose blue or purple shades.
- Tin will be the best setting, followed by gold.
- Men should wear the ring on their right hand.
- Women should wear jewelry on their left hand.
- Silver is not recommended as a setting.
As for the influence of Neptune, when it is activated, a person manifests mystical abilities, there can be prophetic dreams, creative insights. Intuition grows, a person becomes more receptive to music, poetry, theater; he is drawn to travel or he may start studying psychology. Such is the positive influence of this planet.
Negative manifestations of Neptune will be all sorts of vices and addictions - from alcohol to drugs. Perhaps vagrancy, loss of will and meaning in life. If inthere are indicators in the horoscope indicating the likelihood of such events, then the selection of Neptune activators should be taken very carefully.
The stones of Jupiter and Neptune are as follows:
- all blue and turquoise gems;
- blue, green, star sapphires;
- aquamarine aquamarine;
- lapis lazuli;
- turquoise, but authenticity needs to be verified;
- amazonite, although it is more suitable for women;
- opal;
- beryl.
One should be careful with opal, as it is a stone with strong energy that can subdue its owner.
In the Middle Ages, only influential aristocrats, rulers and church hierarchs could afford a ring on the index finger. The influence of Jupiter contributes to the development of self-confidence and the formation of charisma.
Mercury influence
The little finger is ruled by the planet Mercury, which governs contacts, negotiations, short trips, rhetoric and calligraphy, intellect, writing, drawing, acting and healing. As a frame for a stone, any is suitable. But the mineral itself should be selected with full awareness. This is especially true for women, since the little finger is in charge of women's he alth. All precious and semi-precious stones of green and yellow shades are suitable, for example:
- yellow minerals: carnelian, citrine, amber, golden topaz;
- green minerals: emerald, chrysoprase (works well in tandem with gold); chrysolite,amazonite, green turquoise, jade, green jasper, etc.
Addition: Jaspers are great for different aspects of life, but when wearing multiple rings in different shades, they cancel each other out and their effectiveness is zero.
You should know that people with a strong influence of Mercury can be easy-going, full of plans that do not materialize; prone to empty talk and flirting. But they can also be very creative individuals with a creative approach to business and a broad outlook.
Jewellery comes into our lives in many ways: it can be given as a gift or accepted as an inheritance, it can be purchased or found. The best option is a gift. In this case, all the positive qualities of the decoration are included immediately. The inheritance also starts to work instantly, but what about the information that the object has absorbed? Therefore, you should think about competent cleaning. Found items should not be worn. Bought takes time to "make friends" with the owner.
