Inspired by Fatima herself and the real story of her hand. Not your typical chamsa, Fatima’s hand was actually a severed nub she carried in a handbag given to her by the likeness of the devil…after, of course, he chopped it off then made love to her when she went to retrieve it in hell. Falling in love with her, he placed his third eye in her severed hand, magically gave her a new one and told her the old hand would be her light in the dark; protect against evil. I have finally made one of my favorite tales of all time a permanent part of me.
