The gesture of crossing one's fingers for good luck is older than one might think: in some pre-Christian European cultures, two people would cross their fingers together as a show of support, teamwork, or mutual well-wishing: very much like the modern handshake. The medieval Christians adapted it as a variation on the sign of the cross, to ward off witches and evil spirits (in the same way that today's crosses can supposedly keep vampires at bay).
