  • THE REAL MEANING BEHIND THE EVIL EYE ICON

    August 22, 2024 2 min read


    Ever found yourself intrigued by the mesmerizing symbol of the so called ‘Evil eye’? Or perhaps wondered why it is used to decorate, adorn and display on objects across the world!? From India to the USA, Indonesia and New Zealand we have encountered the ‘Evil eye’ icon in an array of places such as adorning a necklace, hanging on a keychain, inscribed in pots and even on a wall of a cozy café in the back streets of India! 

    So, what exactly is the Evil Eye, and why does it continue to show up in so many places?

    Grab your coffee and take a moment to learn, once and for all what this signature Eye icon is all about, where it came from and why so many hold it close to their chest.. 

    HERE WE GO….

    Believed to have originated thousands of years ago in the Mediterranean region, the Evil Eye holds a special place in the tapestry of human history. Ancient civilizations, from the Greeks and Romans to the Egyptians and Ottomans, all shared a belief in its protective powers.

    At its core, this symbol represents a universal fear – the fear of envy and malevolence. You see, it's said that certain individuals possess the power to cast curses simply by giving someone a jealous or envious look. Pretty spooky, right?

    To ward off these negative vibes, people turned to the protective gaze of the Evil Eye. Whether it's in the form of a pendant, amulet, or decorative charm, this symbol serves as a beacon of hope in a world filled with uncertainties.

    But here's the twist – the Evil Eye isn't just about protection; it's also a symbol of connection and community. Across cultures and generations, it reminds us of our shared humanity and the importance of looking out for one another.

    In essence, the Evil Eye serves as a gentle nudge to stay mindful of our thoughts and actions. It encourages us to radiate positivity and kindness, knowing that our vibes ripple out into the world.

    So, whether you're a believer in ancient mysticism or simply drawn to its captivating allure, there's no denying the timeless appeal of the protective Evil Eye. It's a symbol steeped in history, rich in symbolism, and brimming with positive vibes.

    Here's to warding off negativity and embracing the beauty of the unknown – one glance at a time! Until next time, stay curious, stay vibrant, and may the protective Evil Eye watch over you. ✨👁️
