Q. My boyfriend gave me a Claddagh ring for my birthday. Which direction should I wear the ring, or does it make a difference?

A. The Irish Claddagh ring has the design of two hands holding a heart with a crown on top of it. The heart symbolizes love, the hands signify friendship, and the crown represents loyalty. There are two ways to wear it: If the heart points out (away from you), that means you're available. If the heart points in (toward you), it means you have a boyfriend. In your case, wear the ring so the heart points toward you and admire the ring from all angles.
