NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM COMES TO LIFE: THE 12 SECOND Two-Hand Heart Gesture
The gesture you’re describing — when people bring their two hands together to form a heart shape — is most commonly called a hand heart or heart hands.
How it’s made
Classic hand heart: Often formed by bringing the thumbs together at the bottom of the heart and bending the index and middle fingers so their tips meet at the top, creating a heart outline.
Meaning
The hand heart is a universal non-verbal symbol of love, care, support, and togetherness. It can express:
Affection (romantic, platonic, or familial)
Gratitude or appreciation
Solidarity with a cause or person
Unity and shared feelings
