When it comes to keeping his hand in front of his torso or tucked into his jacket, Prince Harry does it quite gracefully. Also, if you’ve observed him closely enough for a long time, he gives slightly different or subtle variations of the same pose at different times.
When it came to pose for a photo with Mrs. Melania Trump, his famous pose with two fingers projecting out was even being (mis)interpreted as masonic, symbolic or cryptic by many Americans and Brits. Has the pose any masonic or cryptic roots?
A number of theories floated on the internet with many people claiming that Harry was giving a symbol of the devil. Also, other thought that this is the the horn or the devil's horn gesture that warns off of evil spirits.
I personally think that this isn't a devil's horn gesture at all. Also, it's not masonic, symbolic or cryptic gesture. It's a small variation of the royal habit of tucking a hand into jacket.
Being a body language researcher, I thought to do my own research about the same in details. I started investigating his posture and some other individuals doing the same in the history. What I found was quite interesting and quite ancient too, at the same time. That’s why I chose to share the same with all of you.
The so-called odd, cryptic or symbolic pose or posture of one hand put in waist coat or jacket can be found in emperor Napoleon Bonaparte too. During the 18th and 19th century, it was considered a leadership pose. This posture was later adapted by people from the upper class in British society.
The same pose can be traced back to 2000 years ago. It originated from the thought of Greek statesmen Aeschines (389 - 314 BC). According to him, it was bad manners to talk by keeping the hand outside one’s upper body. According to Aeschines, this pose symbolizes “masculine boldness tempered with modesty”.
His hand can clearly be seen tucked or put in the chiton (upper body wear) in his statues. If you see photographs of many generals, leaders, presidents, politicians, philosophers and military officers from the 18th and 19th century, you'll find many of them posing like this.
Being a British by origin and a royal by birth, there's no surprise that Prince Harry gives the pose. This clearly establishes the link between his posture and Aeschines's thought.
King Charles III, the father of Prince Harry, can be seen keeping his hand in front of his torso or tucked into his jacket in many photos.
