Help with Hand Mudra

I hope this is the right place for this.

A few weeks ago I had some cranio sacral therapy and whilst in the waiting room and during the appointment I felt the need to link my two little fingers, so left palm is facing down and right palm facing up. My hands were placed across my chest but not touching and then in the appointment, my hands were placed in this little finger linked position, across my sacral/solar plexus area.

I just felt this was the right thing to do, I have no idea where the urge to do this came from, or what it was doing, if anything?

I've looked at various hand mudras on the net but can't seem to find anything which would explain what this might be.

Can anyone help?

Patrycia

I've done the same thing, for some reason it's relaxing and adds a certain safe feeling. I have no idea about the mudras, but if you were to post this question on TamilBrahmins forum, good chance you'll get an answer.l

Namaste.

There are many spontaneous hand mudras that happen as a direct result of awakening the Shakti and I have even gone as far as exploring the Bharata Natyam (Classical Indian dance) to try and find out if there were any actual corresponding names for them...but no luck.

I have found a picture of the one that gives me the most comfort, but it doesn't have a name:

Even the sheer act of placing the fingertips together (another thing I regularly do to feel my heartbeat and slow it down) doesn't even have a term for it among the mudras:

Even the "Church and Steeple" mudra (which also happens) I cannot find in the list of Mudras anywhere:

These are just a few of the hand mudras that I regularly do (or rather occur by themselves) that aren't even on the list!

Suffice to say, I just gave up looking and trying to find a correlation, because it just 'feels good' anyway.

Aum Namah Shivaya
