Fun Facts:

Menthol was discovered more than two thousand years ago in Japan, even though peppermint, from which it is obtained, was already used in ancient times as a medicinal herb by the Egyptians, Greeks and Romans. Menthol's ability to chemically trigger cold sensitivity in the skin receptors responsible for the sensation of cold is well known, but menthol does not cause a real drop in temperature; in this sense, it is similar to capsaicin, the substance found in hot peppers (which stimulates heat sensors, even without causing a real increase in temperature). -In first aid products such as "dry ice" to produce an immediate cooling effect as a substitute for real ice in the absence of water or electricity. -In some beauty products such as hair conditioners, based on natural ingredients. At low concentrations, it is part of the composition of various ointments, lotions and perfumes, thanks to its characteristic aroma and the pleasant sensation of freshness it leaves on the skin. Inhaling the vapors produced by placing a few menthol crystals in boiling water is famous for its ability to relieve bronchial disorders and nasal congestion, as menthol has expectorant and disinfectant properties. For topical use, thanks to its well known refreshing and slightly analgesic properties (when applied to the skin, it numbs sensitivity by simulating cooling), menthol is indicated for relieving itching and toothaches.

Rebalancing and balsamic properties: balsamic menthol crystals are both highly fragrant and extremely therapeutic, and therefore indicated for saunas, Turkish baths and radiator steam vents (it is recommended to use very few crystals); menthol has the ability to release beneficial rebalancing and balsamic effects and restore freshness and healthiness to the air we breathe, especially in winter.

Expectorant and disinfectant properties: they can also be dissolved on charcoal (incense charcoal), or in boiling water. Inhaling the vapors produced is famous for its ability to relieve bronchial disorders and nasal congestion, as menthol has expectorant and disinfectant properties.

Refreshing and analgesic properties: for topical use, thanks to its well known refreshing and slightly analgesic properties (when applied to the skin, it numbs sensitivity by simulating cooling), menthol is indicated for relieving itching.

Toning properties: menthol and water are also toning for the chest, because intense cold is a prime vasoconstrictor, strengthening the walls of the blood vessels that nourish the epidermis and stimulating involuntary contractions of the pectoral muscles, similar to passive gymnastics.

Use of the resin: to burn it, charcoal briquettes must be used. They should be lit with a flame from a lighter or stove, so it is recommended to use tongs or similar to avoid unpleasant burns. When the charcoal begins to ignite over the entire surface, it is time to place it in the burner bowl to burn the resin and add the resin itself.

Experts recommend putting a little sand around the essence burner bowl to help it dissipate heat better.

Stainless steel pendant - Hand of Fatima

The Hand of Fatima is an amulet shaped like a hand with five fingers. The index and ring fingers are the same length and are attached to the middle finger, which is slightly longer. On either side of the amulet are two thumbs tilted outwards and of equal size.

The Hand of Fatima is often decorated with engravings, the most characteristic of which is an open eye in the palm of the hand itself, in the Muslim version (the Eye of Allah) and a Star of David in the Jewish version.

The position in which the Hand of Fatima is placed also slightly changes its meaning. Placed facing upwards, it symbolizes strength, power, and blessing; facing downwards, it attracts luck, patience, and love.

It can also appear with three open fingers and two symmetrical fingers on the sides; with all five fingers open; or with the thumb raised and four fingers open.

History of the Hand of Fatima

The origins of the Hand of Fatima are lost in the centuries, in the meaning always attributed to the number five and to the iconography of the hand by various religions and cultures.

It is likely that it was introduced by the Carthaginians around 820 AD, as a symbol and attribute of Tanit, the goddess of the Moon and fertility, wife of the god Baal.

Another tradition holds that the ornamental motif known as the “hand of God” was already present in Jewish iconography starting from 244 AD.

But it is likely that its origins are even more ancient, linked to the Sumerian cult of Inanna and the Assyro-Babylonian cult of Ishtar, who were also goddesses of love, fecundity, beauty, and the fertility of the earth.

Later, the amulet was reportedly adopted by the Jews, who wished to see in it the Hand of Miriam, sister of Moses and Aaron, and it was also spread among the Berbers and Maghrebis, who adopted it as a symbol of power.

From this point on, the Jewish and Muslim religions developed two different, yet close, ways of considering the amulet. In both religions, it becomes an expression of the presence of God, who sees, blesses, and protects, or in a word, the Hand of God. In this sense, the open hand is used as protection against the evil eye and negativity.

Meaning of the Hand of Fatima

For the Jews, therefore, the amulet represents the Hand of Miriam, which for Jews and Eastern Christians in a certain way replaces the Madonna as a female figure close to God. The five fingers (hamesh in Hebrew) symbolize the five books of the Torah, or also HE, the fifth letter of the alphabet, as well as one of the names of God. The Hand among the Jews bears engraved propitiatory and blessing prayers, and often features the Star of David engraved in the palm.

For Muslims, the amulet has taken the name of the Hand of Alo or Hamsa or Khamsa (which in Arabic means ‘five’) or also the Hand of Fatima, and in this sense it is a symbol of freedom. Fatima, which in Arabic means “The luminous”, was the daughter of the Prophet Muhammad. It was said that when she went to pray in the desert, it rained, making the flowers bloom. She married Ali, her father’s cousin and the first imam of Shiism, and loved him with a very great love, to the point that, when he brought a concubine home, as was his right to do, Fatima immersed her hand in the boiling soup, and did not even notice the pain, so great was the anguish in her heart.

Later, Fatima’s weeping touched Ali’s heart to the point that he gave up the concubine. For Muslim women, the Hand of Fatima brings patience and joy, luck and wealth, and is a very dear and precious symbol.

The five fingers symbolize the five pillars of Islam and the eye in the palm is the eye of Allah.

For both Jews and Muslims, the Hand of Fatima is above all a lucky charm and a formidable protection against evil and the evil eye. In North Africa and part of the Middle East, it is also considered an infallible remedy against jealousy. In India, it is called the “Humsa hand”.

For some organizations active for peace in the Middle East, the Hand of Fatima has become a symbol of peace and harmony among the peoples, as they see in it a reconciliation between Jewish and Islamic cultures.

For Muslims, it is often used to indicate spaces reserved for women.

Outside the religious context, the Hand of Fatima has acquired over time a symbolic value that has made it an appreciated amulet also in other fields, or simply a unique piece of jewelry to wear, or even an original tattoo to show off. Prestigious jewelry brands have made it a decoration for necklaces, bracelets, earrings, keychains.

Its esoteric meaning linked to the ancient female deities makes it still particularly dear to women of every culture and religion, who wear it as a lucky charm and an amulet of love.

It is also used as a gadget and as a decorative object to protect the home.
