People have long placed a special significance on jewelry. Since time immemorial, it has served as amulets: the brighter the jewelry, the more effectively it neutralizes the negative energy of an unkind person. Rings serve not only as amulets: they attract prosperity, success, and fame.
What does a ring on a man's or woman's pinky finger mean? We're used to seeing rings on the middle and ring fingers, but pinky fingers are rarely adorned with rings. Let's find out what this means in this article.
General meaning
There's no set standard for wearing rings, with the exception of wedding bands: they belong on the ring finger. For married women, it's the right ring finger, while for divorced and widowed women, it's the left. But ring fingers aren't the only place to wear wedding rings; they're also adorned with other jewelry. The tradition of wearing wedding bands on the ring finger isn't accidental: it's associated with the heart chakra.
The little finger is responsible for:
- communications;
- career growth;
- creative success;
- communication between spouses.
When a person puts a ring on the smallest finger on his hand, he intuitively tries to improve the areas of life listed above.
However, this wasn't always the case. Before the Revolution, decorating the little finger was viewed with great suspicion. It was considered a sign of belonging to:
- Masonic lodge;
- feminist movement;
- thieves in law, gangsters;
- homosexuals.
In the modern world, these meanings have lost their relevance. Now, pinky fingers are decorated based on personal preference, not social status. However, psychologists insist that one should be wary of such people. Here's a list of character traits they share (regardless of gender):
- adventurers:
- resourceful;
- they know how to lie beautifully and “plausibly”;
- they like to embellish reality;
- they know how to pull the wool over your eyes;
- They do everything for the sake of profit.
At the same time, they are very charming and attractive in appearance. This lure of appearance constantly attracts both simpletons and serious people.
What does a ring on a woman's little finger mean?
Psychologists claim that pinky rings are worn by cunning, self-sufficient individuals. They are literally in love with themselves, captivated by their own charisma. So, they were treated correctly in the 20th century, since they were considered feminists.
Psychological portrait of a modern woman:
- skillfully establish communications;
- know how to behave in society;
- prone to adventurism, not afraid to take risks;
- take control of the situation at the first opportunity.
These women easily break cliches and stereotypes, defying traditions and customs. A spirit of contradiction and rebellion guides them through life, preventing them from becoming rigid within social constraints.
On the right hand
Total independence. This woman recognizes no authority; she holds “nothing sacred” in her soul. She is a rebel, a revolutionary on the barricades. She readily takes risks; adventure is in her blood. Her actions are marked by courage and confidence in her irresistibility. This woman is a narcissist; she knows only how to love herself.
On the left hand
Women subconsciously strive to make their lives easier, looking for the easy way out. They're willing to rely on a man to solve all of life's complex issues. These women may also be unwilling to burden themselves with family responsibilities and abstain from marriage. They're perfectly content with a guest marriage or a constant rotation of partners.
Another personality type is an enthusiastic person who strives to embrace the unfathomable. Solving several life problems at once leads to “dissipation,” and as a result, nothing gets accomplished. These women's heads are scattered, their thoughts chaotic and disorganized. To overcome this negative trait, it's necessary to master meditation techniques and strive for mindfulness.
What does a ring on a man's little finger mean?
The desire to emphasize one's individuality and independence from the opinions of others prompts men to wear a ring on their little finger. It's also a sign of their connection to the criminal underworld, in which they play a significant role, and they pride themselves on their membership in the “elite.” However, it's not only crime bosses who adorn their little fingers with jewelry; bohemians also enjoy it:
- artists;
- musicians;
- dancers;
- actors;
- poets.
Monks also wear rings on their outermost finger, emphasizing their status. Therefore, there's no need to label a person in advance, as not everyone is part of the criminal underworld or has ties to it. These days, the former symbolism has lost its meaning: rings are worn because they're fashionable.
Right hand
If a man wears a ring on this particular hand, it means he subconsciously prioritizes active pursuits and is prone to total dominance, which in the worst case can lead to tyranny. This could be a very aggressive man, whose temper can flare up at any moment.
They are not inclined to start a family and cannot remain faithful to one chosen woman. These men seek one-night stands and abandon their victims with a light heart, leaving them with a broken heart and broken dreams.
Note! Psychologists believe that a ring on the right hand indicates what a person already owns. A ring on the left hand indicates what a person desires. If both little fingers are adorned, it means the person has already achieved everything they wanted.
Left hand
The man has a distinctive character and an unconventional worldview. He has long since transcended conventional wisdom and is proud of it. He may be hinting at his unconventional sexual orientation. This man clearly has no intention of starting a family or living a conventional life.
Both hands
Sometimes you'll see this: both little fingers are adorned with rings. What does this indicate? This is a pompous, narcissistic snob, for whom only his own personal desires and preferences exist. He's oblivious to everyone around him, interested only in himself. A narcissist.
Such jewelry is found on the wrists of famous figures from the bohemian world: artists, fashion designers, pop stars, producers, film directors, and actors. It speaks to a desire to stand out from the crowd, emphasize one's uniqueness, and attract attention.
Material and shape
Depending on what metal the ring is made of, one can judge the priorities of its owner.
Wedding rings on little fingers don't always indicate extravagance. More likely, the size has become too small, so the ring has been moved from the ring finger to the outermost finger.
However, the fashion for pinky finger decorations is taking hold: now gold accessories adorn the fingers of single people. Astrologers believe that gold rings help achieve goals. But today's youth use accessories and jewelry for one purpose: to attract attention and stand out from the crowd.
Silver. It's best to avoid these people. Psychologists believe they can destroy anyone morally. They are incredible snobs, proud of their “noble birth,” financial independence, and other perks of the civilized world. There's no convincing them that they're human, just like everyone else. It's futile.
Black. This type of jewelry is worn by people who consider themselves extraordinary individuals. They strive to highlight their unique image with unusual accessories.
Result
Psychologists advise against jumping to conclusions about someone who wears a ring on their outermost finger. Perhaps their fingers have gained weight. However, if they specifically buy jewelry for their little finger, then it's worth heeding the psychologists' assessments and taking this information into account.
