The image that represents the powerful hand of god in Santeria is Chango the spiritual warrior.
Tattoos such as that are fairly common place. It doesn't have anything to do specifically with practicing Santeria.
It will appear that the image raises his right hand.
WTH? Salsa is heavily influenced by a variety of instruments and carribean culture. A lot of what the carribean cultures have is due to African contributions, its how people would confuse such things. Santeria is a religion. The music uses the drums which can be heard in salsa as it shows its roots, but that's as close it gets to one another.
A hand often symbolizes action, creativity, and connection, serving as a powerful representation of human ability and interaction. It embodies the capacity to create, build, and nurture, reflecting both physical and emotional engagement. Additionally, hands are frequently associated with gestures and communication, highlighting their role in expressing thoughts and feelings. Overall, a hand can represent the intricate relationship between individual agency and social connection.
The reflection in a plane mirror appears to be a mirror image, which means left and right are swapped. So, when the man raises his left hand, the mirror image will show the hand on the right side.
There is something called the MandaGloire- an approximation of Hand of Glory in the Santeria spiritual mix. There are ( for lack of a better word) statues of a disembodied Human hand sticking out of the ground all five fingers intact. This might have been a misinterpretation of some botanical life- like the cruciform Four Leaf Clover to give a benign example. it is really Weird- let us use the older spelling WYRD as Chaucer did. I have no idea how it is used in the religious practices of Santeria- Clearly, it is not Christian. The word Mandagloire is closer to French than Spanish, by the way. In French proper it would be MainDaGloire. ( Gloire- Gloria if you will, was a French Battleship, first armor-plated one!)
Poor circulation to the hand
by the use of lasso too we can make hands free image
In a mirror your left hand is still on the left.
Karate means empty hand.

the hand jive represents Elvis Presley after his death which is very devastating
