Hey gang,

This is a picture of what we call in Israel a "Hamsa". It is a cultural sign of peace and prosperity. Above it in two letters you can see the sign ?? which is "Live" in hebrew.

The sign got many meaning and many families across the country have some sort of hamsa in thier house being put on the wall or kept in different places in the house.

It is built in such a way that it represent a hand with five fingures where the three fingers on the bottom got different luck signs.

Anyways, My parents got that or bought it and I thought it was a good idea to put a picture of it in my blog.

Enjoy,

BTW if you would like to buy that one you can search the web or israeli sites where they are probably selling one.
