Superstitions

1. Why is the wedding ring put
on the left-hand annular finger? |
|
Because it
is believed that the fourth finger of the left hand has a vena amoris, that
is, a love vein running directly to the heart, and that the nuptial sign - being
a symbol of union, of love and of faithfulness - is thus joined to the seat
of life. |
|
Therefore,
this custom is based on a superstition, so believers have one more reason to
reject it. |
