The Egyptians believe that the wedding ring is worn in the left hand because the vein from the third finger on the left hand is the vein that goes straight to the HEART, the vein of Love.
isnt it amazing that the shadow of the ring on a book also forms a HEART :-)

it doesnt matter which side of hand we wear the ring.......as long true love stays in heart........if this happens we dont even need a ring to signify love :-)
excellent capture....

I really appreciate the meaning of wearing the wedding ring from the 3rd finger of the left hand. But I'm not into it because for me, it doesn't matter whether you're wearing a ring or not, for as long as you love each other, everything seems to be perfect. What is important is the feeling for each other and not the other way around
