The Hamsa Hand is a common charm in
Middle-Eastern countries. You can find it both in the Arab countries and Israel.
Often worn around the neck as a talisman, it brings luck, love and good health
to the wearer. It also protects the wearer from misfortune or the evil eye.
The Hand's origins are lost in history but many believe that it represents the
Hand of God, open to protect the wearer from evil.
The Mid-Eastern people also believe that the
dolphin is lucky and it can be seen
on amulets and mixed with other lucky symbols.
In fact, throughout the globe, there's a belief in dolphins. The Greeks, the
Maoris of New Zealand, natives of the Amazon region, North America Americans and
Celts all believe in them too.
