Protective Evil Eye and Hamsa Hand Jewellery
Many weird myths and wonderful traditions exist in this world. One of the most popular ones is the evil eye. š§æ
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.
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.
Incidentally both Hinduism and Judaism, though continents and oceans apart, are strong believers in the malefic effects of the evil eye, known as āNazarā in modern-day India and āĆ”yin hÄ-rĆ”ā in modern-day Israel.
So, what is the evil eye?
Evil Eye, also known as a āNazarā, is a ālookā, āstareā or ājealous glareā that is believed to bring bad luck for the person whom it is directed towards.
Many cultures believe that receiving the evil eye 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.
An ancient mystical symbol of protection that is meant to protect the wearer from the āevil eyeā.
Itās believed and people say that there are three types of evil eyes. The first is an unconscious evil eye that harms people and things without any intention, the second one intends to harm, while the third one can accidentally be given to ourselves, which is the scariest one for me.
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 youāll likely see the evil eye symbol staring at you wherever you go these days.
There are many unique charms and gestures people use to defend against the evil eye. They come in different shapes and sizes including pendants, charms, necklaces, bracelets, earrings, rings, key chains, and car tags.
It is believed that the evil eye brings the wearer prosperity, protection, and good health.
Evil Eye Jewelry helps translate negative energies into positive vibes. There was a time when evil eye beads only came in only blue and white glass, but now they also come in fancy sapphires and diamonds.
Other popular Hollywood stars seen wearing evil eye jewelry include Brad Pitt, Madonna, Kim Kardashian, Rhianna, Miley Cyrus, Cameron Diaz, Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan, Lauren Conrad, Heidi Klum, Marie Kate, Naomi Campbell, Nicole Richie, and Rita Ora.
I started wearing evil eye jewelry when I was 19. My friend gifted me my first small silver evil eye bracelet, 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 Iāve 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.
Evil eye jewelry can easily be incorporated into everyday life, whether youāre attracted to the symbol because of its style, want protection from bad luck, or both!
It can easily be said that the evil eye is a popular evergreen fashion trend in the United States, even though the belief in the evil eye comes from countries and cultures outside of the US.
The Evil Eye can also often be seen with other symbols. The most popular of these is the Hamsa Hand, also known as the āhand with eyeā or āevil eye handā.
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.
If that isnāt the sign of a divine symbol ā I donāt know what is!
The Evil Eye can also at times be seen with a lotus flower symbol, a symbol of purity, enlightenment, self-regeneration, and rebirth. The evil eye can also often be seen with fish symbols, as it is claimed that since fish are always underwater and not visible directly to the human eye, they are resistant to the evil eye.
Hamsa hand jewelry includes hamsa necklaces, hamsa bracelets, hamsa pendants, hamsa rings, hamsa charm beads, hamsa earrings, and hamsa keychains.
To sum it up, before the alphabet, words, and languages there were symbols. And the Evil Eye and Hamsa hand are both symbols that have been with humanity since inception, and will probably come with us to the moon, mars, and beyond! š§æ
