Many weird myths and wonderful traditions exist in this world. One of the most popular ones is the evil eye. 🧿

It is believed that the curse of the evil eye dates back to 3000 BC in ancient Mesopotamia. The evil eye meaning is also mentioned in ancient Roman and Greek texts, as well as in the Quran and the Bible.

The only two religions believed to be as old as the belief in the evil eye are Hinduism and Judaism, both of which started around 2000 BC.

So, what is the evil eye?

Evil Eye, also known as a ‘Nazar’, is a ‘look’, ‘stare’ or ‘jealous glare’ that is believed to bring bad luck for the person whom it is directed towards.

Many cultures believe that receiving the evileye will cause misfortune, suffering, bad luck, or injury. Evil eye talismans and amulets with the symbol of the eye were created to give the wearer protection against the evil eye of bad luck and misfortune.

It seems that since time immemorial, people who do well and achieve great success in some way attract envy from other people around them who are jealous. The glare given by the envious people can bring misfortune to the receiver, who is usually unaware of the malicious gaze upon them.

Protection from the evil eye is something that many people desperately want. People wear evil eye jewelry as a symbol of protection against bad luck. The evil eye symbol is one of the oldest symbols in the world, and you’ll likely see the evil eye symbol staring at you wherever you go these days.

I started wearing evil eye jewelry when I was 19. My friend gifted me my first small silver evil eye bracelets, with a mini evil eye charm hanging from it. She wanted to make sure that any negative energy directed at me would be turned back and I would be protected and safe.

Since then I’ve also purchased an evil eye ring, evil eye earrings, evil eye pendants, and an evil eye anklet too. I wear them regularly and have also gifted evil eye keychains and nazar amulets to my family and friends for protection.

The Hamsa Hand is a symbol of protection and blessings, and like the evil eye, this hand symbol also transcends modern-day countries, cultures, and religions. It is also known as the Hand of Fatima, the Hand of Miriam, the Hand of Mary, and the Hand of the Goddess.

In fact, many celebrities have also been spotted wearing hamsa jewelry, including Rihanna and Jennifer Aniston.
