Rightwards Hand

A flat hand held out with palm facing left (from the viewer's perspective), as if gesturing to the right.

The 🫱 Rightwards Hand emoji represents gesturing, offering, or motioning toward something or someone to the right. It can imply directing attention, handing something off, or presenting an idea or person.

In modern and Gen Z usage, it’s often used in emoji pairings for dramatic effect—like pointing at oneself or something else, or as part of a visual meme. When paired with 🫲 (Leftwards Hand) or 👉 (Backhand Pointing), it can suggest emphasis, focus, or callouts in conversations and memes.

Older users may interpret it more functionally—as simply a hand gesture for direction or instruction.
