A Daoist ritual hand gesture. For men: the left hand's tiger's mouth (the space between thumb and forefinger) wraps around the four fingers of the right hand; the right hand's tiger's mouth clasps the left thumb. The tips of both thumbs touch the center of the opposite palm, at the Lao Gong point. For women, the gesture is mirrored.
