A LEFT (sinister) arm from the elbow issuing from A cloud in the RIGHT (Dexter) holding the hand above A serpents head ,the serpent erect from the middle The serpent looking towards the left (Sinister).
Notes from A Complete Guide to Heraldry By A.C.Fox-Davies
Arm possible means strength
Serpent is of Medicine
Cloud possible means at distance or from far or above
So one might say Brownen the bringer of water of life From afar (medicine man from far away)
