Hi Dianne,
You are absolutely fine with sharing your observations, and you’re in good company.
I’m grateful you shared this revelation.
The awareness of your emotions and their connection with the creative/musical left-handed guitar functions were insightful for me too.
Thank you!

I was cruising your website and happened upon this particular piece of information. First off I really enjoyed the video, secondly I wanted to say that reading that little chart regarding left/right hand meanings brought about a sort of epiphany for me. I really hate talking about myself, or exposing my “weaknesses” as I might see them but felt moved to share this.

I’ve been “stuck” for quite a while both in my work life and my social/love life. The former is okay but not very rewarding, the latter is pretty much non-existent. I’m not whining because a lot of this is my own doing and I have to take the steps to change it. My point is that I used to play guitar, a lot, and loved it. I still love it, but rarely do it anymore. A lot of guitar playing is geared toward the left hand where emotions lie and looking at that chart I realized that when my emotions shut down so did the music. All of those things on the left side of the chart are so intertwined with the right side and, for me, intertwined with my ability and desire to make music. It jump started a thought process on how to approach this dilemma.
I know this is long winded and probably TMI, but I wanted to thank you for putting your time and energy into providing this site and the information therein.

The diverse perspectives remind people that one symbol, like the hand, has multiple meanings. One could add that hands represent energy. As you hold the palms of yoru hands together, you feel the heat and resonate deeply. Meditation is a wonderful way to explore some of your deeper associations. Your mind divulges images. Hands are an common extension of emotional expressions.

Hi Gypsy-Heart,

How are you?

In the spirit of symbolic hands giving & receiving…thank you for offering the the solar warmth to offset the crystalized lunar edge. Both energizing, both as well-received as they were given by you.

Those of you who are curious about this somewhat cryptic vote of gratitude, check out Gypsy Sue’s warm artwork on her blog post here.

Namaste,
A
