Interchangeable Hand Symbols Decoding Upward and Downward Energy

Interchangeable symbols are a great way to learn. These two hands usually hold opposite polarity symbols. Quick refresher, there will be an upward flow symbol, and a downward or bidirectional flow direction. Usually. That should be your default start as a decoder.

Images read as energy-flow symbolism: Interchangeable symbols are a great way to learn. These two hands

Sometimes there are recognizable aspects of being portal symbols, like the little "bowls" (but not literally bowls) on image A and E, and the blue-ish mat on image D.

Image A, has the upward cone and the downward bucket, also on image E (presumed, we can't see the cone clearly).

Image B has the upward flail and the downward crook (which is a kind of loop-back bidirectional meaning).

Image C has an upward rectangular building (probably above a hathor head) and an upward flow out of a narrow container that does a loop-back, so it's the downward bidirectional.

Image D is not having the two hands held at the same level, but those two blueish rectangular buildings are probably the upward side, and the scribe equipment is the downward stuff.

Image F uses the bow of the boat as upward, and the stern has a "looking-back" head of the animal as the loop-back bidirectional side.

Image G is about the mounds on the sides of that circle. This example has no attribute markers, but they are known to be side flow symbols. (And the big circle is the center flow portal, like to higher reality (like heaven).) In my collection of two side mound symbols, some of them have attribute markers. https://ca.pinterest.com/stevenbhalls/two-mounds/ and some of those are same polarity, some are opposite polarity. It's progress if people click that link and see some examples, and realize that old guard experts telling you it's their favorite valley with a sunset, need to unstick themselves and move forward.
