Let me share something interesting about this topic. If you observe carefully paintings and Idols of Deities in India, Female idols are always on left hand side of the male idol. You can also observe in Temples that Woman deity is placed on left had side of the Male deity. Mystics again have worked long on Human psychology much before the Sigmund feuds of the world analyzed Human mind.
Your right hand is connected to the left side of the Brain. And Your Left had is connected to the Right side of the Brain. Now let’s talk about Left and Right side of the Brain. Left side of the Brain is traditionally masculine or associated with Mathematical or technical knowledge. That’s why across the world as and when the education took a formal route thru Universities and schools, your writing is predominantly Right hand oriented. Very few mathematical teachers and science teachers are left handed. The ones who are Left handed tends to be outstanding.
Right side of the brain is associated with Musicians, dancers, Painters and creative arts. Remember Left hand is connected Right Brain. If you look at the early part of the human history, women were more associated with Music, Dance, Food, Family etc. Anything and everything to do with entertainment, Love was centered on Woman. You will find most of the artists, musicians left handed. Some of the brilliant poets, singers are also left handed. It’s a good idea to encourage left handedness if you find them in your kid.
When a man spends most of his time focusing on day to day earning and wealth related issues, He is bound to be missing on softer side of life. Woman used to provide that balance to him. While walking and talking, While Romancing and Dancing, It was conceived that woman on left hand side of the Man would bring much needed tranquility in him. Even In bed Woman on left hand side made significant difference to Man’s sleep. So if you are sleeping towards right side of your Man , I guess time to experiment.
It is not accidental if you look at movies and paintings; man with headache is typically massaged by woman on Head. Now you can also try it. When Woman massages you with bare hand with absolutely no “spray’ or “Ointments” You still feel better about you headache. Most of us growing up would have had similar experiences with Mom, or sister just massaging your head to make you feel better.
Other important observation you can see also is in societies where cultural link is still maintained you see woman moving on left hand side of the man. In progressive countries where increasingly woman have become dominating force tend to move along the right had side of the man. The other interesting factor you can observe is while in love woman tend to move towards the left hand side. I cannot say the same thing about every couple married for 10 years 
Left hand and right side movement between Man and woman has many more mysteries and secrets than you can understand.In his book “Davinci code” by Dan brown, he highlights how Magdalene was hidden in a Da vinci picture where if you re- align you will see her leaning her towards left shoulder of Christ. I can share with you many more examples from fragments of history. But I guess this much is enough for todays post.
But one point which probably helps you to know is that if you want to get something out of your man it helps to start working out of left side!!
So what’s left may be right for you!
Love dear ones and that’s ton of it

Very interesting! I can use both hands, but I’m predominately right handed. I excell at the arts and creativity….but am a very analytical person as well. Would that say I’m balanced in my brain as well?
Suresh, How about Woman on top – not left or right But right on top?
Blessed1, This is not a Law, So There are great Artists with right hand and there are great left handed Money makers! there are many exceptions to this rule but this is general observation from the past. As for as your usage of both hands! YOu are Just the best there
And Melissa – Your are my type Honey! Just perfect on top
Superb photo! Suresh Very Romantic and Visually stunning. Interesting post too!
Nice post and Great blog.
This is enormous!
Sitting somewhere you take a picture, you pen smthing down(probably its your left hand) and it leaves such a tickle!
and now again this pic, oh gosh!
leaves me stranded, my employer’s soon gonna kick me out
with a lot of appreciations and immense gratitude!
cheers!
and yea,
read a lot about this left-right and creative-mathematical stuff, and it always leaves me depressed, poor calculative right handed me
This is very interesting. As I was reading your post, I realized that I always sleep on the left side of the bed and generally choose the left when my husband and I walk side by side. I had never given this any thought before.
Ahh, now I understand why in our Hindu marriages the priests ask the bride to stay on the left-side of the groom. There must be some valid reason for all the other rituals too.
Sometime back you had left your impressions on my blog.
As I am new to blogging I didn’t know how to post a reply.
I don’t know where to leave this comment exactly–but here it goes.
It was about your take on accepting kids as they are–
I am wondering –
I tend to keep modifying all that comes way-recipe–
clothes–
friends-by hidden suggestions and advices
husband–by indirect remarks
I don’t think I can stop trying to change my kid!!
Many of us keep pestering tailors for a better fit–imagine accepting kids as they are
difficult.
Must try for the sake of better health of all involved atleast.
Yep!
This is so true, even in ancient times,this was there. As you said in idols, deities this was practised. Even Lord Shiva, gave his left half to Shakthi, Arthanaareeshwarar is also depicted like that. So many things has this inner meaning, before tyying the mangal sutra the woman was made to sit to brdiegrooms right and after that she will be in his left always.
Good job Suresh!
Very good post suresh.
Bala you are correct. Infact the three phrases in English “Better half, sweet heart and honey” comes from the Indian puranic tradition depicting the three gods and their wives. Shiva’s better half is parvati, vishnu’s sweet heart is lakshmi and Brahma’s honey is saraswati (resding in tongue).

love this entry. I really hope this book of yours will arrive in Malaysia so i can buy a copy =)
it is interesting – I remember most deities have godess on left side. However, in hindu wedding, except for few occasions i have noticed woman on the right side of the man. I just noticed Priya has mentioned on a related ritual above. There must be some reason for these other moments at hindu wedding.

IMHO the idea female=left=evil continues to survive.
I discovered yesterday that I like being on the left side of my man, so strange..I felt a huge difference. On his left side I feel our energies moving in a circle but when I on his right side I feel a ‘blockage’, an energetic wall, between us so much so that I googled searched the words men women right left side and got to your article. Why have men and women experience what you have mentioned in your article? Why would being on the man left side feel so different to me? He noticed it too and we talked about it and switch sides with me on his left side, he then replied that it was ‘like another planet’..I’m very curious to some sort of explanation. So if I on his left side, I’m related to his artistic side? So is he relating to my analogical side of my brain since he is on my right?
