Each of the fingers of the hands has a special symbolism that has been culturally built over time and allows them to convey a message depending on where it is placed. This is the case of wearing gold ring on index finger, which in itself represents a symbol of personal power.

That is why we have decided to dedicate a special entry to make known the benefits of wearing gold ring on index finger, so that all women can let their inner gem shine.

Meaning of wearing ring on index finger

Since we are infants, we use our index finger to point to anything that arouses our interest, almost intuitively. Reason why it is known in many cultures as the finger of judgment or guide.

This is why many mythological currents associate the index finger as the finger of kings. For the practitioners of ancient Roman palmistry, the index finger was the finger of the god Jupiter, father and king of the gods.

In the West, it was common for jewelry on the index finger to be reserved exclusively for men in positions of power or leadership. Military and religious rings were great representatives of this concept.

Index finger rings female meaning

The powerful index finger rings eventually left their place as masculine symbols, to become more representative jewelry for the female gender. They now shine as flags of empowerment, personal strength and leadership.

Practitioners of the energetic branches related to Feng Shui say that a ring on a woman’s index finger encourages her leadership role and self-confidence.
