Hamsas

The Hamsa Hand (Arabic) or Hamesh Hand (Hebrew) is a centuries old, and still popular apotropaic amulet for magical protection from the evil eye.  There is good archaeological evidence to suggest that the downward-pointing protective Hamesh / Hansa hand predates both Judaism and Islam and that it refers to an ancient Middle Eastern goddess whose hand wards off the evil eye.  

The words Hamsa and Hamesh mean 'five' and refer to the digits on the hand.  Referred also as hand of Fatima and hand of Miriam. 

For centuries the Hamsa has been used as a symbol of good luck and shields its owner from the curse of the evil eye.  The Hamsa's positive energy draws happiness, riches and health and is a popular symbol of luck with followers of Kabbalah.
