A History of All Saints' Day
Whether you celebrate Samhain, All Saints' Day, or another autumn holiday, this is a time for showing love and appreciation for those who have gone...
The Roman Catholic image of the Powerful Hand (Mano Poderosa in Spanish) depicts the right hand of God with fingers and thumb stretched upright [see right]. The palm, with its stigmata, faces toward the viewer. The figures that stand at the top of the four fingers represent St. Joseph, the Virgin Mary, and her parents, St. Joachim and St. Anne. The Christ Child is depicted on the thumb.
