253 - Left Hand / Right Hand Symbolism

The Symbolic World

This podcast is based on a presentation I did on my YouTube channel that relies a lot on visual imagery. You can try to follow along with audio only but it might get difficult to visualize what I'm talking about. Here is the original video: https://youtu.be/o_4j9Ts2wxU In this podcast I discuss the symbolism of the left hand and right hand that’s often mentioned in Scripture. Through exploring iconography and other representations of opposites inside and outside of Christianity, we can discover the meaning and role of these basic opposites, how they can feed each other and mysteriously flip. As I mention in my discussion, this is more like poetry, an intuition rather than a system. Icon of the Last Judgement image I always use, painted by Fr.
