Why The Wedding Ring Is worn On The Fourth Finger??

The Chinese give a beautiful
explanation to this. The thumb
represents your parents. The index
finger represents your siblings. The
middle finger represents yourself.
The ring finger represents your life
partner. The little finger/pinky
represents your children. Hold your
hands together like the picture. Join
your middle fingers back-to-back,
and the remaining fingers tip-to-tip.
Now, try to separate your thumbs.
They will separate because your
parents are not destined to live
with you forever. Rejoin your thumbs
and separate your index fingers.
They will separate because your
siblings will have their own families
and lead their own lives. Rejoin
your index fingers and separate your
little fingers/pinkies. They will
separate because your children will
grow up, get married, and settle
down. Rejoin your little fingers/
pinkies and try to separate your ring
finger. They will not be able to
separate because your life partner is
meant to be with you throughout
your entire life, through thick and
thin...
