Fan
This may be about trying to stay cool – emotionally or socially. But a fan also clears the air and so might be suggesting wether that the atmosphere you are in is unhealthy, or that you are taking in too much smoke.
You can also be a fan in connection with sport, films etc, and this is to do with wanting some of the strength, fame or adoration to rub off on you. It might also be to do with the excitement and energy that surrounds fame and is perhaps lacking in your life.
The fan belt on a car is a great driving force which if broken leaves the car un-usable. See Car-Fan belt
Folding-fans are associated with the changing phases of the moon, and hence represent the feminine principle’s instinct, imagination and intuition.
There is a language of held hand fans:
To hold the fan with the right hand in front of the face / Follow me
To hold it in the left ear / I want you to leave me alone
To let slide it on the forehead / You have changed
To move it with the left hand / They are watching us
To change it to the right hand / You are imprudent
To throw the fan / I hate you
To move it with the right hand / I love another
To let slide it on the cheek / I want you
To hold it closed / Do you love me?
To let slide it on the eyes / Go away, please
To touch the edge of the hand fan with the fingers / I want to talk to you
To hold it on the right cheek / Yes
To hold it on the left cheek / No
To open and close it / You are cruel
To leave it hanging / We will continue being friends
To fan slowly / I am married
To fan quickly / I am engaged
To hold the fan in the lips / Kiss me
To open it slowly / Wait for me
To open the hand fan with the left hand / Come and talk to me
To strike it, closed, on the left hand / Write me
To semiclose it in the right and on the left / I cant
To hold it opened, covering the mouth / I am single.
Waving a fan can mean a warding off of negative feelings.
